A PRO’S PRO
Clients call voice over artist Kim Handysides a pro’s pro. So much rides on the success of your video project. And your choice of narration is critical. The ideal voice over reflects your brand, ferries your message to your potential client and tells your tale with flavor and depth. The wrong voiceover is at best, a missed opportunity. Leaving the listener feeling empty or not solidly connecting with you, like you hoped. At worst, it can negatively impact your brand.
Kim takes great care with every voice over script sent her way, absorbing your vision for the project, breaking the text down into essentials, applying her vocal craft, deftly ensuring the words resonate with your target audience, imbuing the message with heart and depth. Literally tens of thousands of creatives and producers have entrusted Kim to tell their stories, deliver their messages and engage the hearts and minds of their customers or listeners.
Happily, video and audio are pervasive on the internet and all our social platforms. Advances in audio technology both in price and portability have opened the flood gates to voice over work. However, not everyone who’s posted a shingle on the web is adept at voice acting. Kim helps remedy this situation by offering voice over training. As a voice coach, she has helped thousands understand what is involved in voice acting and offered strong practical skills to polish and improve their craft.
