Medical and Corporate Voice Over?

My background is a mix-up of acting with a business consulting career thrown in for good measure! So when I decided to embark on a voice-over career, it made sense. Being a freelance voice artist uses all my acting skills and all my business skills plus it gave (and continues to give) new challenges and lots of new things to learn.

With any new business the key is pushing the door open in your new field. What can you do that gives you the best ‘in’? What’s your USP (unique selling point)?

A technical gap

Looking around at other voice over artist’s websites I realised I wasn’t seeing many voice overs specialising in medical narration. I had already been working with some pretty technical corporate scripts for a niche financial trading business, so adding medical narration to my repertoire felt like a natural extension.

I wrote a few scripts and started recording. Then during a regular session with a voice over mentor he commented that my voice and abilities would lend themselves well to medical narration. I was off!

I write haiku poetry in fits and starts, and a key part of haiku is space. It’s noticing and commenting on what isn’t present. This is a good approach to make in all sorts of areas os life - what’s missing that you can capitalise on? Medical narration skills are lacking in the British voice over industry - so here I am filling the gap!

I’m all over it like a cutaneous eruption (rash)!
