Chris Radley – Voice Over Blog

When part of your work is recording corporate and explainer video voiceovers you can discover quite a range of things  you previously had no idea existed.

For example non slip tennis courts; a special plastic used in photovoltaic cells; an iphone app that controls wood burning stoves; how to decommission wind turbines; a machine that measures human body resonant frequencies; how to turn a conservatory into an extra room; a water distribution and sewerage company in the desert in the UAE and finding out how to drive fancy VW cars over 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!

Voiceover narration for on-line TV and video company

Voiceover narration for on-line TV and video company

New MVO narration for explainer video I’ve just been recording a corporate voiceover promoting the services of the Web TV Company. It seems having a video on your website is good for search engine optimisation – search engines love video and it seems that potential punters love videos too. On-line surfers mostly watch videos if they find them and then that seems to make them much more likely to buy. read more

Unusual and brilliant way to play the guitar!

Unusual and brilliant way to play the guitar!

Unusual guitar playing Well a week and a half of heavy cold followed by sinusitis has brought my voiceover work to a complete standstill. Whilst the inability to work has been really frustrating I have used the time to check out some interesting things on the internet. Coming soon I’ll post my research into the right microphone for voice artists – but first here’s another musical interlude. I’ve played a read more

More musical exploration…

More musical exploration…

Musical discovery I’ve been unable to work due to a heavy cold – so I’ve been distracting myself with some “research ” on the internet. Just found a great singer from Warwickshire who I hadn’t heard of previously called Kel Elliott.  I’m a bass player myself so I’m always interested in people who play on similar or related instruments and I must say Kel is pretty handy on the double read more

Voiceover for on-line video about HBO launch in Holland

VO narration for video of TV channel launch I’ve just provided the voiceover narration for a short video film showing the launch of the HBO TV channel in Amsterdam, Holland. In the video there are loads of Dutch celebrities on the “blue carpet”.  However I can’t work out if the carpet was blue to support the HBO branding or whether the traditional red carpet has now become a blue one.  read more

New explainer video VO I’ve just been recording a voiceover for some instructions in a video on how to replace safety burst discs in hydraulic testers.  I’ve done VO work for this client before but this was one of those scripts where I felt it might have helped if I’d seen some visuals before recording.  By the end I’m still not quite sure what safety burst discs are, what they read more

Voiceover narration for BMW conference

Voiceover narration for BMW conference

 February 16, 2012
VO for car conference I’ve just been recording a voiceover narration for an on-line video showing the recent Mobility of the Future event. This was a three day event in The Netherlands organised by BMW Group the Netherlands. It’s part of their strategy of repositioning the BMW brand as a “supplier of mobility rather than a automotive supplier”. Not quite sure how that works, or how it’s different, when the read more

Voiceover variety – radio ads, phone prompts and video narrations

Voiceover variety – radio ads, phone prompts and video narrations

 February 9, 2012
More VO variety I’ve just been recording voiceovers for some “sorry we’re busy” and “sorry we’re closed” type phone prompts for a well known financial services company. Earlier on, in an ISDN session connecting to the studios of BKP, I was once again the voice of an “announcer” in my second radio ad voiceover for the Roads and Transport Authority in the UAE.  So quite varied really. Recently during a read more

VO ISDN session for Festival ad I’ve just recorded some more voiceovers for radio adverts promoting this month long cultural event in the UAE. As mentioned in a recent post this is the third year I’ve been chosen as the voiceover for the radio ads for this Festival. Last time we recorded two ads.  This ISDN session was a bit tougher though –  because this time it was decided that read more

Voiceover narration for health and safety DVD

VO for H+S DVD I’ve just been recording the voiceover narration for two videos covering health and safety and safe work policies for engineers and external contractors working at a major bakery. The voiceover is for a video going on an induction DVD. The bakery company in question provide foodstuffs to supermarkets and caterers and as you might expect they are pretty hot on making sure there’s no contamination of read more

Radio ad VO for music Festival I’ve just been recording some radio ads for the Abu Dhabi Music and Arts Festival. This it the third year I’ve been the voiceover for the ads for this month long extravaganza of culture,  art and music. It’s a nice gig and one of the few times I get to provide voiceovers which run over music that is orchestral and classical rather than the read more
