What Denise McKenna VO is looking for

I love playing with my voice and bringing your creations to life!  I have done narrations, explainers (including the Voice of Addison for a UK-based institution), telephony, tutorials, a charitable environmental documentary, and even recorded time-synced spotter and crew chief instructions for an amateur race car driver to meet qualification requirements!  I want to continue growing and honing my craft.  I joined Casting Call Club to be able to work with you, the creative community, and I want to meet you where you are at on your creative journey.  I'm patient, compassionate, and easy to work with, and I want to create long-term collaborative relationships.  I believe Casting Call Club will allow me to strengthen and explore my creative range and muscle and provide opportunities to meet and work with people from all around the world.  I look forward to working with you!
