Talent profile
Get to know Jim
My voice is natural and conversational, the kind of authentic read that sounds like a real person talking rather than someone performing a script. I'm a male voice actor with a North American English accent, and I sit comfortably in the adult 30-50 range as well as an older 50-plus sound. That works for everything from friendly and smooth to sincere and authoritative.
I'm based in Texarkana, Texas, United States, and I work across documentary narration, e-learning, music promos, radio commercials, television spots and live announcing. My voice over work has taken me through projects for SEGA, Gulfstream Aerospace, Dell Technologies, Morgan & Morgan, Murphy USA and A&G Studio.
With a script, I look for the real conversation inside it first, then read it like I mean it. Standard turnaround is 24 hours, and I record on weekends too. I handle audio editing and can add music and effects when a project calls for it. For directed work, I run ipDTL sessions or connect over Teams, Zoom or phone. The one thing I don't take on is adult content.
Each voice lists a general turnaround time above. It is not a guarantee, but every voice aims to get your recording back as fast as they can, and the sooner you hire them the sooner it lands. Some talent offer a four hour turnaround for clients who need something super fast. To find out who is free right now, post a free job notice.
How much will it cost to hire this voice?
Rates depend on what the recording is for and how long it is. Click Hire Voice Talent Now and the system walks you through it, showing the rate before you commit to anything.
Can I listen to this voice record my script?
Yes. Use Contact / Audition Voice to send a short part of your script. The voice records it for free so you can hear exactly how your words sound before you hire.
Can I check that the voice is available or audition them before I hire them?
You sure can. Our voice talent are full time voice actors, not hobbyists. If a voice is unavailable a notice shows on their profile with their return date. To check a specific time, or to audition, message them through Contact / Audition Voice. Where it asks for a script, just say it is still being developed.
How do I make payment? What forms of payment do you accept?
Click Hire Voice Talent Now next to the profile picture and the system leads you through. Before the script is sent you pre-pay by card, which we hold. When you are happy with the recording you click a button to close the job and release the funds, and you receive an instant tax invoice. We accept major credit cards and PayPal, and can set up accounts for long term clients.
How many re-records can I get to ensure my script is read the way I want?
If the voice has made a mistake or missed your direction, re-records are free. If you change the script after recording, that counts as a new recording. If the voice simply is not right for the job, the satisfaction guarantee lets you pick another voice from the roster to record the same script instead. Conditions apply.
Do I own the audio? What are the licencing terms?
Recordings for non-broadcast use (phone messages, YouTube, e-learning, audiobooks, personal use) are buyout in perpetuity, so you can use them forever with no extra fees. Broadcast recordings for TV, radio or internet commercials are licensed for one year from the recording date. Recordings with several uses should have all applicable rates selected.
Can the voice talent add music or edit the recording into smaller files?
Yes, most talent offer production services. You provide the music you want mixed with the voice, and there is a small extra fee. Make sure you add Production when you hire them.
Where do the voice actors record the scripts?
All our voice actors have professional broadcast quality studios and record on professional microphones. They are representing your brand, and the sound reflects on your business, so you get the best for a recording that will be used for years.
