Apparently, this is the face of “authoritative, cinematic storytelling.” 🎙️

Never doubted it for a minute! Right???

A recent voiceover client said this about me… (Excuse the self-indulgence, but it made my day.)

“Neil is a fantastic storyteller and an absolute professional to work with. He provided exactly the right authoritative, cinematic tone needed for my documentary projects.”

Voice work is a curious part of what I do, and one that has been hit particularly hard by the rise of terrible AI fakery.

When it’s done properly, the audience shouldn’t really be thinking about the person behind the microphone. They should simply be drawn into the story.

Finding the right pace, tone and emphasis can completely change how a film feels, particularly with documentary work.

It’s always satisfying to know that the voice in my head was also the voice the client had in theirs. (I think that makes the right kind of sense.)

A great break for a few hours whilst finishing off two new websites. :-)

Today I was playing the part of "Magnus" the Norwegian oil worker. Or at least, I was the voice of Magnus. 🎙️

It’s a role I’ve returned to a few times now, but the recording process highlighted just how much has changed in the past few years.

I’ve recorded over 2,000 projects now, the post radio side hustle that got a little out of hand a while back... For years, "good audio" meant being tethered to a physical booth or building forts out of hotel duvets to get a usable take. (if only you ever saw some of the setups).

Whilst AI has undoubtedly cost the voice over world enormously, it has at least brought one decent tool. It can now fix a "boxy" room or a difficult recording in ways that would have been impossible a few years ago. Phone/Camera microphone sound distant on your video? Its now all very fixable.

Read about it in my post...

🚨🎙️ New Podcast Alert! 🎙️🚨

Delighted to see that the School of Law Podcast from the University of Aberdeen is back!

In the latest episode, I sit down with Dr. Eddy Weefa to talk about the resource curse, why countries rich in oil, gas, and minerals can still struggle economically, and the role law plays in shaping who benefits from natural resource extraction.

This is a great listen, especially as Aberdeen and the North East has such strong ties with the Oil and Gas industries.
