Robert Ball
In your text is the truth. I focus on speaking the truth of your message and making that truth live for the audience, moving them to action. I voice commercials, online learning, documentaries, podcasts, and explainer and corporate video narration with the flexibility to reflect the mood of your message as it changes through the text. In my home studio I produce professional-quality audio, and am flexible to record in independent studios or remotely from my studio as required. I use performance skills honed by more than 30 years’ experience on film and stage, and critical thinking skills developed in many years of technical and script analysis to complete the project with the direction you provide.
