ABOUT ME
You know, I've always found the concept of 'About' sections to be a little bit strange... after all, it's not about me, is it? It's about you. You are the reason I do this. Maybe there should be an 'About You' section...?
Musician
Anyway, being classically trained on the clarinet at school, I naturally became the frontman, guitarist and singer in a punk band for seven years and 555 gigs, as well as part-time stagehand/sound engineer for most of my misspent youth in the UK, misspending a lot of time in venues and recording studios - honing my skills and training my ears.
Teacher
From there I found my way into the wonderful world of English teaching, ending up specialising in business English and the art of conversation. Living in the Czech Republic also made proofreading a necessary skill, and from there I fell into translation.
Voice Talent
That's when I was approached by a lot of corporate video producers in need of narration (Pilsen is a hub of business innovation) and educators in need of e-Learning materials, as well as tourist destinations wanting to upgrade their audio guides, interactive boards and museum tours.
When the pandemic hit in 2020 and all the studios closed, I already had a substantial recording studio for music, so it wasn't too much of a leap to join the rest of the world in recording voice over from home.
Recording Studio
My studio has already been approved by the likes of Voquent and Bodalgo and I'm always improving and refining it (sometimes I just can't leave things be!). The booth is also connected for online meetings and live directed recording sessions via Google Meet, Zoom, etc., so it doesn't matter where in the world you are - location is no longer an issue in today's hyper-connected world!
24 Hour Turnaround Time
(if it's possible!)
And don’t forget, I’m also a businessman, so you know I'm always professional and punctual, as well as chill and easy to work with, of course.
