Oh, hello. I guess you’re here because you want to hire a British Voiceover Artist as a narrator for your next project, right?Well, the good news is you found one, (that's my big face behind the text) - and I’m a damn good one, well, not Cumberbatch good, but I can hold my own and have had no complaints over the last 8 years I’ve been speaking to myself out loud - aaand I can also say Penguin correctly, so…I’d be happy to help with your British Voiceover narration requirements!(Oh, wait, let me get my flashcards so I don’t forget anything…)What kind of Voiceover are you looking for?Well, let me explain...See, I pretty much cover all genres of corporate narration - you know, like Explainer Videos, Corporate Brand videos, eLearning and the like.Sure, yes, I’ve got examples of my voice - they’re hereOf course, I’m more than happy to read a portion of your script if you want to hear what I sound like speaking out loud with your copy; sometimes that's the best way to hear how the project will sound.My rates? Yeah, I provide them here as I don’t see the point in hiding them away - you need to know what you’re looking at up-front, right? No hidden surprises here, my friend.Yup, I’ve got a professional recording booth in my studio down here on the South Coast. I know, it’s a lovely place to work - don’t tell anyone, but it’s my garage - good photo angles you see. I’ve also got some pretty sweet recording hardware.You could use the contact form, or perhaps drop me an email.
Also, somewhere on this page at the bottom is a WhatsApp chat option if you’re feeling like you want some live interaction.Turnaround times? I’ll be honest, I’m pretty quick, normally same day - unless you want me to record War and Peace and then I’ll ask for a few days. Sleep is overrated. I will blow my own trumpet though and say I'm super fast.Does that explain everything?Retakes? Yeah, not everything can be done perfectly the first time and things do change after my recording - have a look here, it should cover all that.Can you listen in? Oh yes! I’d love that. Often that’s the best way to get what you want right the first time - I’ll be honest, there are some slight terms for the audio coming out of a live session but nothing too odd. Have a look here.There you go. Hope that was useful, so if you're after some British Voiceover narration, I'm your man!Have a think and I’ll be here when you want to proceed.Nice talking to you!Mark x
