Reasons to work with me as your Voiceover!

Easy to work with

Good working relationships go a long way, and I like to make sure the process for you is simple, stress free and enjoyable.

I’m well experienced as a VO so once we get started you can depend on me to follow the instructions and deliver without any hassle, and I’m a good communicator too 

I pride myself on providing a great service and I’m happy to help where I can, for example if you need to make a minor tweak to your script for me to record, I don’t charge additional fees for it

High Client Retention Rate

Many of the people I work with come back and continue to use me as their voiceover.  If you look through my reviews you will see some that have commented so!

I’ve been a freelancer for almost 20 years so I have plenty of experience working with people, deadlines, needs and expectations

Fast, High Quality VO

I can deliver most projects within 24 hours, subject to script length and bookings at the time.

For shorter scripts, i’ll try to get it back to you the same day and there’s never any additional charges for an urgent delivery, so if you contact me with something with a super tight turnaround, if I can do it, I will, and it won’t cost you any extra 

Top Spec Home Studio

You can have the best mic in the world, but if your recording space is no good then your sound won’t be either.

StudioBricks are an industry leading provider of acoustic booths and the VO Edition is an excellent booth I record my work from, using ‘best in class’ Neumann Microphones

Award Worthy Work

To say I love my craft is an understatement. 

In such a competitive industry, to be nominated for 7 awards for my work including twice Male Voiceover of the Year just reinforces how much time and effort I put into developing my craft, the goal being to make sure my clients receive a great VO!

A British Male Voiceover from Manchester

Hey there!

Thanks for stopping by to have a look through my site. Im Michael and I’m a British Male Voiceover from Manchester! 

My voiceover style is rooted in real, relatable styles, whether that’s a chatty, friendly and relatable tone or something more thought provoking.

I frequently get asked to voice scripts that connects brands to consumers in a style of talking to people, not at them, which is nevermore popular than at a time where a robotic Ai voice just can’t bring that human element

I’ve been in the Voiceover industry for 7 years and have an industry podcast called The Off Air Voiceover Podcast which is entering its 3rd season as of March 2025!

I spent 2 years at the Manchester School of Acting to develop my craft and still continue to look at ways of learning, and have been fortunate to have received 7 award nominations for my work, including 2x Male Voiceover of the Year!

I have a wealth of experience voicing in:

Commercials
Sports Promos
Corporate & Explainer Videos
Gaming / Audio Drama
Performance Capture
Dubbing
E-Learning

My main voiceover characteristics are:

Friendly 
Relatable
Warm 
Gritty
Gravelly
Emotive
Authentic

Im considered as having a soft northern male voiceover accent which makes me quite versatile for more neutral sounding projects where the Voiceover can’t sound too regional. 

So, whether it’s a more neutral british male voiceover, a more specific northern male voiceover or you need me to dial into that regional tone and be your manchester male voiceover, I can help!

Take a listen to my projects and when you’re ready to discuss how I can help you with yours, drop me a message!
