About Don McDonald

Looking for a well-trained, sought after, experienced voice actor? My listen/shortlist ratio was over 50% in November. Thanks to my physical gift of a deep, resonant voice, I have naturally gravitated toward acting with my voice. The first paid job from my voice was as a mall Santa Claus. I was only 17 years old, but it landed me the weekend Santa gig. Since then, I have been a national radio host, podcaster, stage and film actor. Yet, my passion is voice acting. Let me use my voice for you!

Service Overview

Voice Over

My voice is deep and resonant with the ability to add character, authenticity, and a gravelly component. I can take my voice from commanding to warm, persuasive to seductive, smooth to rough. As an experienced actor, I bring decades of experience to my reads. I can (and have) done almost every type of voice job imaginable: radio and tv spots, major convention VOG, characters, audiobooks, corporate, and more. I thrive on direction and, if you hire me, I will give you the sound you seek... guaranteed.
