A few comments from Testimonials:
“I’m pleased to inform you that our client absolutely loved your voice over. You did a superb job at delivering the narrative in a way that evokes the appropriate emotional response, and we’re all very happy with the result!”
Allen Greer, Account Director - Blue Fountain Media, 102 Madison Avenue, NY
"I just wanted to take the time to personally thank you for such a wonderful production you supplied us with. I have to tell you in all honesty, that when I first heard your voice, it sent chills down my spine, as I’m not accustomed to hearing such superb voiceover talent. Your voice is the most professional one I’ve ever come across in almost 15 years that I’ve been here. It certainly lent itself to exactly what I’m sure the client was looking for – “distinguished integrity”.
Tom Vernon, Production/Studio Manager-American Impact Media Corp., Miami, FL
"By the way, Jon, the animator is a HUGE fan of your voice!"
LaShawn Maddox, Associate Media Producer - Laureate Education Inc. Baltimore, MD
