Blog

You find out about a amazing range of things when you record corporate voiceovers.

Non slip tennis courts; a plastic used in photovoltaic cells; an iphone app that controls wood burning stoves; a machine that measures human body resonant frequencies; a pylon manufacturer in the UAE and and a video explaining how to drive fancy VW cars on rocky terrain – you name it I’ve done the voice over!.

I hope these blog posts give a flavour of the more interesting voiceover stuff that sometimes comes my way – plus some of the other things I like that I’ve come across in those moments when I’m waiting for the next script to arrive!

Chris Radley – Voice Over

Explainer VO for app for builders

 October 27, 2020
A few months ago I recorded the voice overs for a series of explainer videos for a new app for people working in the construction/trade or fenestration industry. I’ve recently recorded a load of updates to the videos designed to make this new app even easier to understand and use. It’s called OnSite 7 and the idea is to give people in the Trade a single on-line place to keep read more

Free Press Unlimited voiceover

 October 26, 2020
A video I recorded a voice over for a few weeks ago is now on-line. I was asked to provide a voice over for a video to be shown at the launch of the annual conference in The Netherlands which hopes to raise awareness of the risks faced by journalists just trying to do their job. It’s called Free Press Unlimited. Increasingly, in many parts of the world, just trying read more

VO work as lockdown eases

 September 7, 2020
Although I was able to keep working, recording voice overs, through the lockdown the volume of work was not surprisingly much reduced. Now as the Government tries to encourage people to go back to working in offices the rate of voice over work coming my way seems to be starting to pick up.  I’ve actually been quite busy but for reasons of commercial confidentiality I’m not able to mention the read more

Voices from a radio archive

 July 16, 2020
When I’m busy with voice over work I don’t get a chance to listen to the radio as much as I would like. However I recently caught up with a Radio 4 programme I had not heard before presented by Greg James. It’s a show (as he calls it) that tries to answer the question of what you should do if you are a national broadcaster with decades of audio read more

A voice over re-visited

 June 22, 2020
I recently had the experienec of being in a newly re-opened shop and hearing my own voiceover drifting towards me across the showroom. Non-essential shops in my town are re-opening following the relaxation of lockdown restrictions and so I found myself recently in a local bed shop looking for a new mattress. While I was viewing beds in a suitably socially distanced way and using sanitizer and rolls for paper read more

Busy time in the voice over booth

 June 9, 2020
Despite a recent slight relaxation the country is still to a large extent in lockdown but – as I blogged last month – I am fortunate enough to be still getting a variety of voice over jobs.  Of course I am very grateful for the work and for my existing clients who are currently able to work and that continue to make use of my voice over services Corporate videos read more

Voice over narrations in lockdown

 May 12, 2020
As might be expected during the lockdown things have been a bit quieter than normal – but nevertheless I have still had quite a number of voice overs to record. Thankfully I’ve built up, over a number of years, a client base of businesses that come back to use me time and time again. Of course it helps – especially now –  that I have my own professional recording studio read more

Voice over with own studio

 March 23, 2020
During the coronavirus outbreak producers are frantically searching for voice over artists with their own studio. While other workers are adjusting to working from home for the first time we voice overs have been doing just that for quite a while – in my case since 2003. Interestingly many searches have specified professional standard studios: not people at home with a laptop and a USB mic. When I set my read more

Voice over for a brand film

 February 24, 2020
I recently recorded a voice over narration for the data management company Enfo. It was a voice over gig I nearly didn’t get. Just after I was originally booked by the production company, just before Christmas, I went down with a horrible cold.  When I told TMP, the production company,  that I couldn’t record on the appointed day they were sympathetic but said the client’s deadline was very tight and read more

Narration for robot information video

 January 30, 2020
In recent years I seem to have voiced quite a lot of work for industrial complexes, processes and installations. In the last year or so I’ve described factories making pylons, a new paint spray process machine for vehicles, steel making in the UAE, wind farm de-installation and a series of emergency announcement messages for an oil refinery to name but a few.  I’m getting used to a whole industrial area read more
