The Consultation

As an actor it is important to choose the perfect texts for your voice, and we invite you to come for a pre-recording consultation to discuss what you want your voice reel to be like. It is important that the reel plays to your strengths in order to maximise your potential in the vocal industry. As a trained director, I can guide you through the choice of texts to gain the best results from your voice. The consultation is important in order to minimise studio time and help you to feel comfortable and confident, creating a strong and comprehensive recording.

We will spend between two and four hours in the studio, our motto is ‘there is no rush.’ We will take the time to capture your full potential. The key to a great voice reel is for you to be comfortable, relaxed and confident to create a unique and personal voice reel. With four years experience in vocal recording, I will direct you through the pieces, this process is more then just pressing record and hoping you hit a take you like, we can do as many takes as you need until you are happy with how you sound. I will integrate sound effects and music into the recording process to help you engage more fully in the text, and make the reel sound and feel as slick and exciting as possible.

Your final voice reel will contain nine pieces, formed of a mixture of commercials, straight reads from fiction, poetry, documentary and character/drama pieces, and will include any accents or vocal talents that you feel you can present well.

A dynamic two minute montage of the pieces will kick off the reel, this will primarily be for use on spotlight. The best full tracks will be edited together from all of the takes, music and sound effects will be added to ensure that the listening experience is dynamic and exciting, and will show off your voice to its highest quality.
