Voiceover is acting. Plain and simple. However, voiceover actors don’t have the luxury of performing in front of an audience, or, most of the time, even having other actors in the same room with them. Many times, voice actors don’t know what the music bed might sound like, what the video looks like or even have a director to guide them. They need to have natural intuition. A way of understanding what the project is about and how to relate to your clients, viewers, listeners, etc. This is no small task, but it is immensely rewarding when it is accomplished. When the project comes together and the voice over fits in like a missing piece of the puzzle, it can be magical.
Heather has voiced many different kinds of projects, ranging from phone messages to e-learning to commercial spots for television, radio and the internet, but she is really in her element in the radio imaging, TV affiliate and Promo genres. This is where her acting abilities really have a chance to come out and play.
Scientists are currently working on developing AI to replace voiceover actors but in certain areas they are going to have their work cut out for them. The human voice is an amazingly complex thing. The slightest inflection on one word can change the entire meaning of a sentence. Try it! Just say “Hey” three different ways: happy, sad and mad. Now, try saying it optimistically, apathetically, and skeptically. Completely different right? The smaller the script the more nuanced the performance needs to be. This is one of the reasons Heather loves the areas of Radio Imaging and Promo. Her extensive training and work in these areas means she understands what your project needs. Perhaps it is the importance of the music, the sound effects and, in the case of television promo, the corresponding video. Each genre has it’s own voice over placement. For example, in the case of promo, she understands that she is there to support the story, not necessarily take center stage. For radio imaging it is time to shine! To be playful, helpful, a super fan. Affiliate spots are about telling the story of the station, newsy and compassionate.
Your brand is important and finding the right voice to perfectly encapsulate it can be daunting, to say the least. Maybe you need a female voice with just the right blend of sass and sophistication, class and crunch, fierceness and femininity. It can be done and Heather is just the one to do it.
Equipped with the “promo” mic, the Sennheiser MKH 416, Audient iD14 interface and an acoustically treated sound booth, her studio DAW cranks out professional audio quality. Heather’s studio also has Source Connect so live sessions are a breeze to patch into.
