Actor, Director and Voice Artist
Christchurch, New Zealand
I've been voicing radio ads and commercial videos for several years, and now have my own recording set-up. This allows me to turn around files pretty quickly. My rates are straightforward and available on request. Files are supplied clean, via Dropbox, in whatever format the project requires.
If the client is unhappy with the read, I'm happy to revoice any part of the job asap until the job is right. Changes to the script requiring further sessions will however incur the original session fee.
Incidentally, Lamb & Hayward seem to have taken a shine to my voice, and I now voice regular radio promos for them.
I recently lent my microphone (a heavily modified MXL 67V) to a friend at NZME Studios. Here's what he had to say: 'Damn, your modded mic is amazing! It blew the Rode NT2A out of the water, and it's currently punching above it weight against the U87. Also....so...quiet.'
Here's a reel of things I have voiced recently (including a recent Lamb & Hayward radio ad, a game promo, and a bit of old-timey radio fun) plus a link to the Ethique Concentrates promo I voice, some more fun stuff, and also a nice bit of feedback

I'm so proud to have been part of this awesome promo for Ethique Concentrate, made by the amazing talents at Resonate Productions, and directed by the awesome Zac Bennett-Knight.
Got a fantastic comment on Facebook from a major New Zealand VO pro, whom I admire hugely:
"Well done Michael, you beat me in the auditions to get this one, and you did a damn fine job! Great work!" I was very, very pleased to read that.
I recently recorded a couple of voices for an awesome short film, called Wilbert Wire. One in the style of David Attenborough, and the other in the style of the iconic 'movie trailer' guy. Click the pic above to be taken to the movie.
Some vocal fun!
Wrote this affectionate take on what seemed to be every episode of my childhood favourite.
Written by myself and David Allen, this captures the voice and style of those old-time news reels.
