Norman Drake

My voice is warm, friendly or authoritative, and well-rounded; and I can be animated when needed. Show me your script and I will dedicate my efforts to giving you precisely what you need. You can expect an exceptional reading with outstanding sound quality, produced on state-of-the-art equipment and completed on time. I can also add music and/or sound effects for a complete production, and I offer copyediting service.

I have been been doing professional voice overs for over 10 years. I have also been a professional jazz musician for most of my adult life and I still gig when time permits. So I guess I can say that I know what it is like to perform in front of demanding audiences. It is a great and fulfilling task. My music background also lends itself greatly to my sense of timing and to how I hear the addition of music to a voice over project.

Before I began my professional voice over career, I was fortunate to train with and be coached by Chuck McKibben, an acclaimed vo talent and teacher, and the former audio producer for the legendary Mel Blanc in Hollywood.
