Why work with me?
Well first off, I’m lovely to work with, my greatest concern is making sure I provide what you want, it’s got to be perfect and I strive for nothing less.
Not only that but I’m experienced in voicing commercials, promos, corporates and characters for animation. I have been coached by some of the top VO coaches in the business and I’m a graduate of Richcraft.
I have a BA in Television and Creative Writing which has given me an edge on being able to decipher any script. I get it, there’s magic in storytelling, let's chat and find out how I can help you tell it.
What is your turnaround time?
Need a voiceover in an hour? Sure thing! (If I’m available I’ll jump on it straight away).
Sometimes I’m already booked up, or you’re not in a ‘TODAY’ rush.
My aim is to always get something over to you the day you contact me. If we’ve got some more time to play with, then that’s cool too!
Just let me know what you need and how quick and I’ll suit you as best I can!
The script has changed after recording! What do I do?
These things happen right? You think you’re all sorted, then BAM! Change of plans.
DON’T PANIC! That's first.
Then drop me an email, let me know what’s changed and we’ll get it sorted. Depending on the amount of script adjustments, there’s no extra charge.
Can I listen into the recording session?
Heck yes you can listen in.
Straight from my booth to your ears we can connect via a selection of platforms such as Cleanfeed, Zoom, Skype, Google Meets or even WhatsAPP ( It has happened!).
What are your rates?
“Money, money, money, must be funny, in the rich man's world” (ABBA)
Look let's be real, “I ain’t got nothing going on but the rent” (Gwen Guthrie) OK. that's ENOUGH.
There’s a few variations on cost, depending on whether it's a corporate project, TV Commercial, Radio Promo, or audiobook.
But let's start with the basics…
My BSF (Basic Studio Fee) is £250 Inc VAT per hour. Which includes the following:
-
A full analysis of your script, marking up and rehearsing
-
Recording and Editing the audio
-
Studio Hire

A round of revisions in case of any pickups
-
A hour of live direction

An audio file delivered in your file format of choice
-
A bloody lovely time
TV or Broadcast Media such as Commercials
For projects such as this, a usage fee is charged plus my BSF. This is based on the amount of impressions related to the campaign (TVR’s) & length of time it will run.

Students & Personal Projects
So you’re an up and coming animator or game developer, and you’re interested in using my voice for your wonderful self funded projects, but concerned about budget?
I’m a full believer in creatives supporting each other. I love seeing people's creativity flourish and if I can give you a helping hand in that, then drop me a message and let's chat.
Anything Else?
If you have a project that doesn’t fit into these categories then please just drop me a message. I'm always happy to talk about any collaboration.
Payment Terms
I have a 30 day payment term from the date sent on the invoice. Payments must be received via BAQS.
What is the process of booking?
Drop me an email or fill in the [contact form] and give me as much information as you can.
What is your project? What’s your budget? What style or tone are you after? Where is this going to be shown? Who's the audience? How long is the script? Will there be any music?
All of this info is super helpful to make sure I get the right read nailed for you. I appreciate however, you may not have all the info to hand and that’s ok too! Still message me and we can figure it out as we go along!
After a good chat about what you need, I can send you a free sample with a couple of takes to see if my voice fits your project.
Like what you hear? Then we can crack on! It’s up to you to decide how you would like to record, if you’d like to dial in and direct me live, we’ll set up a session or if you’re happy for me to self record, I aim to get the audio over to you within your set time frame.
After the recording session I’ll use a file sharing service like WeTransfer to whizz the files over to you, in a format you’d like wav. Or mp3.
Any amendments you need or if there’s a slight change in the script, just let me know! I’ll get recording asap and have those pickups over to you.
Once you're happy to sign off, I’ll send you an email with the invoice.
Done and done!
