Erik Ransom is an accomplished, enthusiastic and experienced BIPOC actor, writer and voice-over performer, who has worked extensively in theatre, film, television and video games.
Specialising in character and accent/dialect work, Erik has made a name for himself in media markets across the globe. He is able to work remotely from his frequently-upgraded home studio, and is happy to travel for sessions at established studios anywhere in the Greater New York City or Philadelphia metropolitan areas. Erik is a proud member of both the VGM Voiceover List and the Queervox database, which promote the voices of artists from underrepresented communities.
From an early age Erik was mentored in Voice, Speech, Accents and Dialects by Jim DeMonic, former Head of Voice & Speech at the American Academy of Dramatic Arts. After receiving his B.A. in Vocal Performance from T.C.N.J., Erik went on to perform in countless plays, musicals and operas, before diving into on-camera acting and voiceover work. Currently, Erik can be seen playing opposite Orange is the New Black's Taryn Manning and Disney’s Encanto's Diane Guerrero as one of the stars of Happy Yummy Chicken (PeacockTV) and recurring as François on the Emmy-nominated series Tainted Dreams (Amazon Prime). He narrates and portrays multiple supporting roles in the musical adventure audio series The World to Come, featuring Adrienne Barbeau (A 2021 Webby Award honoree). In the hit PC strategy game Terra Invicta, Erik voices the role of Project Exodus’ Director Khalid Al’Ashgar and Vox Reaper in the forthcoming "Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves" from SNK Studios.
Negotiable rates depending on the type and scope of your project. I try to stick close to industry standards.
Availability: I'm able to record remotely from my frequently-upgraded home studio. I'm also able to travel for in-studio sessions anywhere in the Greater New York City metropolitan area or Philadelphia. I hope you enjoy what you hear, and that we have a chance to work together on your project!Turn-Around Time: I can deliver high quality, finished files within 24-48 hours. If needed, I can also provide same-day or overnight delivery. I am typically in my studio space Monday through Friday, but I'm capable of working through weekends with enough notice.
I bring passion to every project I voice, but I particularly enjoy character work and I specialise in accents and dialects. I am a full-time VA and only working on paid projects at this time.
