Testimonials
"The quality of his home studio recording in tandem with his very reasonable rates allowed me to be a hero to the client and my producer. I could tell he'd take direction, and he knocked it out of the park! We also had a great time during the actual session. I will use Jeff every chance I get."
--Adam Schlender, Mercenary Mediums
"Finding a voice for my character was really tough, but the moment I heard Jeff's takes I had a huge smile on my face. I let my colleagues listen to Jeff's voice along with a sample of my animation and everybody said the same thing: 'that's a very good voice actor you got.' It's a pleasure to work with Jeff.
--J. Manalo, Hybmed Studio

Testimonials
Adam Schlender, Sneaky Giants
I wish I had a need for Jeff on every project! I have used Jeff several times and each instance has been an affirmation of how fluid and pleasurable the production process can be. From our first engagement, Jeff has been eager and easy to direct. His work flow is efficient and professional and the product is reliably spot on. When VO is on the slate, Jeff Kafer is my first and last thought.
Bob Souer, Owner, Bob Souer Productions

Jason Pomerantz, Author, FiddleandBurn.com
Jeff read several of my stories for an online audio collection. His interpretations of my work were very perceptive and his performances were a lot of fun. When I asked for a few small changes after the first takes, he responded promptly and implemented them as I requested. The final results were all a pleasure. I would strongly recommend Jeff for any voice work that is needed.

You may want criticism, but you ain't gonna find any here. You have a great voice, and did a great job with it, playing the part of three distinctly different characters and one narrator.... I don't mind telling you it was quite a thrill to hear my quirky little story narrated so professionally.

Jeffrey Kafer provided voice over work for a few of our commercial advertising clients. They were pleased with the speed of receiving a draft to review of the voice over, and pleased with the overall cost for his services. Kafer was easy to work with and is in our contacts for future work should a client need his services.
