"Brad’s voiceover was the finishing touch I needed for a professional video book trailer. His voice talent is exceptional; he took direction extremely well; he made helpful suggestions; he was prompt and pleasant to work with; and the audio quality is flawless. Brad Smith is one of the best professional voice talents around."

“When an author’s work makes the crucial transition from the written word to the spoken word, he hopes for a satisfying aural experience: a combination of professionalism and natural ability, as well as a melding of the reader’s personality and the material that is being read. I found that, on all counts, with Brad Smith. He is, without a doubt, one of the best voice talents working in the business today. I consider myself fortunate to have him in my corner!”

Ronald Kelly - Author of Cumberland Furnace, Timber Gray, Undertaker’s Moon, & Fear

"Working with Brad was our first ever experience creating a voice-over recording and we were rather unsure about how it would go. After sending through the script, we got the first recorded version within hours and it came with the added value of his advice on how to best complete this project. Since then it has been just a few days and am I happy to say we now have a fantastic recording to present alongside our first ever video."

"Brad had the exact right voice for an important introductory moment in a recent video production. He was totally prompt with file delivery and revisions and even went out of his way to wait for approvals before leaving on a weekend trip. His price was more than fair and I found him to be just an all around pleasure to work with. Our clients were thrilled, I highly recommend Brad Smith!"
