Michael was wonderful to work with. He's incredibly talented, communicative, and delivered the takes almost immediately after I reached out! Not to mention the golden voice. Thanks again, Michael!Michael Baer2 years agoHey Taryn - thanks for that, it was a pleasure to work on your project!

Michael has always been a curious type. He likes to look into things, to see how they work, to discover what makes them 'go'. Recording voiceover for clients lets him do just that. A thirty year career in television and film as an audio engineer and, later, a technical director, also provided Michael many opportunities to explore, and helped to equip him with a varied skill toolbox.
Seven years ago, Michael moved to the noisy side of the microphone to record voiceover for clients in the Americas and Europe, working from a professional - but small - booth that he built in his basement. He recently moved from that to a much larger space in his house which he gutted, and in which he built an acoustically-isolated recording studio for the express purpose of recording voiceover. Best of all - fresh air and daylight!
In doing so, Michael documented the whole process and released a series of videos to his Youtube channel 'Sound Sense', called "Building a Homebased Recording Studio". And of course, being curious and with a deep background in media production, he learned how to video edit in Da Vinci Resolve to make this happen.
Michael looks forward to bringing all of this experience to your project.

- Experience, training, and equipmentMichael spent many decades in the field of sound and production in television and film. He is very comfortable with the requirements of recording voiceover and producing professional audio, including mixing and production, and has a deep toolbox and varied skillset. Michael has also used that skillset to shoot, edit and otherwise produce a video web-series on the building of his acoustically isolated voiceover studio. He gutted a room in his house and built it from scratch. Having spent an adult lifetime in media production, learning to video edit in Da Vinci Resolve was both creatively rewarding and a natural transition into the world of video. Michael's series is hosted on his Youtube channel Sound Sense, here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCWeJF8zO9WfL4p_MBw2ia8A He has trained with preeminent voiceover coach Nancy Wolfson, in her Commercial curriculum, as well as taken many courses and seminars on the art of voiceover. Michael records from his acoustically sound home studio, equipped with a Microtech Gefell M930 studio condenser, through a Universal Audio Apollo Twin preamp, recording and editing in Logic ProX.
