Our various companies have been using Jack Barry for advertising needs about twenty years. He is very creative in the actual creation of individual ads and entire ad campaigns. Under his creative leadership we have won nationally recognized awards. Jack has always been honest and forthright in all aspects of the business we have done together.
In my opinion Jack’s voice, which we have used for years in both radio and television, makes a real connection to those listening to the advertisement.

Jack has provided voices for several of my productions. He offers a very wide range of voice options, has been available on short notice, and is very fair in terms of his pricing. He is also fun and easy to work with, and will voice your script exactly how you hear it. I'll be using Jack for voice over needs in the future, and I can't give him high enough praises.

Working with Jack was a blessing. He's prompt, professional, creative and able to work within my budget! It was immediately obvious he'd been doing this for years, he understood my vision for the project and actually had some ideas to take it to another level!
His audio work was especially outstanding. He was able to take my script and, with no coaching, give me a read which was exactly as I had envisioned it!
His understanding of video and how it works on the web was also crucial in my project's success.
His talent and experience helped my project have a polished look and feel that made my clients very happy customers! I'd recommend Jack for anyone looking for professional Audio and Video production.
