Bio
A former Gaming Bar owner (4 Years) and long-time lover of Games and Animation, I've always keenly felt the desire to act. When I was a child, it was all I wanted to be, but I never felt ready to pursue it.
I took vocal training for singing through College while studying Sound Engineering, but that was as far as I ever went and I never managed to follow it as a career due to where I was based in the country.
I spent 18 months with a YouTube page called The Killer Bits doing game reviews and voice overs (including Lets Plays and video editing to some degree) before leaving to focus on my business.
In September of 2017, I closed my business after four years and found myself with a lot of spare time and a bit of disposable income and decided to invest it into something I wanted to do.
With the purchase of a Blue Microphones "Yeti" and related accessories, I decided it was time to start Voice Acting for real.

I developed a game for the Google Play Store which has been downloaded over 43,000 times and rated an average of 4/5 by over 1100 users. Richard provided his voice for one of the only two characters in the game, the landlord.
When I showed him the script he intuitively knew how to play the character and was happy to contribute ideas based on his understanding of the script, which proved very helpful. The role required Richard to take direction, which he was happy to do, providing as many different variations of takes as required. The character's voice needed to be heavily modulated for a few of the lines, so there was also a technical aspect to how he was directed.
For my next voiced game project, I plan to create a role with Richard in mind and hope that he will be available to work with me again.
