Testimonials
Reagent Press
Reagent Press just finished production on a 7-book set of children’s stories written by Robert Stanek for children ages 3 to 8 and featuring 16 voiced characters all performed by a single actress—Victoria Charters. While the company had considered doing the story collection using a full cast, the actresses’ wide range of skills convinced them she was the right talent for the task. Creating 16 original voices is lot of work

"I thought you did a very nice job, and I particularily liked the commercial. It was very playful, and, I thought your voice was suited for production with such color as that. I also liked your news a lot, and your ability to metamorphize from a commercial voice to a news inflection is impressive. Good commentary voice."
