Marlee Forsyth

Marlee is known for her warm, energetic, and effortlessly relatable tone—evocative of a sit-down chat with a good pal—perfect for commercial reads, compelling narration, and character-driven work. She brings a strong connection to every session, whether she’s voicing a national brand campaign, an internet explainer, or a dynamic character in a narrative podcast or short film.

Trained in both on-camera performance and VO technique, she specializes in commercial, corporate, explainer, and character-based storytelling across audio dramas, animation, and short-form film. Clients have valued her directability, fast turnaround, and ability to bring a human touch to both polished brand copy and emotionally nuanced scripts.

 Opleiding

I completed all levels of "Voice Over for Actors" at Kalmenson & Kalmenson, where I built a strong foundation in commercial, animation, and narration performance. I continued honing my skills with one-on-one coaching and workshops through Kathy Grable Studios. I actively maintain and expand my technique with ongoing courses and daily practice sessions through the Don LaFontaine Voiceover Lab.

 Ervaring

From national campaigns to character-driven fiction, I've lent my voice to projects across TV, radio, digital, and beyond. I’ve served as the spokesperson for Dunkin’s “National Espresso Day” across all platforms, provided ADR for McDonald’s, narrated explainer videos for Wix, and led campaigns for Not Your Daughter’s Jeans and the University of Alaska. I’ve also worked on IVR for Jacobs Engineering and internal corporate videos for Godiva Chocolatier.

On the narrative side, I voice June Sanchez in the upcoming second season of the podcast Zenith, and my voice can be heard in short films including Chet Bueller: Attorney at Law, Apocalyptic Amulet, and The Audition.
