@CourtneyDeBerryCommercial and Character Voice Actor
Quirky characters, clean advertisement, fun products, and warm narration, I bring a wide variety of vocal talent to your projects! I record out of my home studio with the beautiful Lauten Clarion mic, Scarlette 2i2 interface, and Adobe Audition software. I trained under award-winning director and voice actress Stephanie Breinholt, and I have an acting BFA where I studied acting film, stage, and voice acting. My recent credits include the character Sayako in the Dragonfruit game series, Aunt Tilly in The Covenant Path, and several commercial and industrial ads such as BYU Flex GE. I am proficient in accents such as RP British, Cockney, Irish, German, New York, Southern American (rhotic and non-rhotic), and Minnesota/North Central US. When narrating, I have a warm and motherly tone perfect for meditation and for products requiring a friendly and inviting voiceover. For animation and character, I excel in portraying kids, boys, and even animals like pigs and dinosaurs!
