Hi, I’m James Barton.
I'm a One Voice Award-nominated, professionally trained voiceover artist and voice actor.
My natural speaking voice has a resonance that will arrest your audience's attention - ideal for explainer videos, audio books or e-learning - but voiceover is just the beginning of what I can do.
I have a degree in Italian and speak it fluently, so I'm happy to voice in this language. If you're launching a multilingual campaign, I can also provide voiceovers in German and French!
I absolutely love creating character voices, and I'm a huge gaming nerd and animation fan, so I'm ready to bring all my enthusiasm and range to your voice acting project.
I also have extensive experience as a copywriter and proof-reader, so if you're not quite sure about your script then I can get it into perfect shape before I record it! I also offer translation from Italian to English.

TESTIMONIALS
Vizavi
We’ve worked with James across a range of projects for several major international clients, and they've been very impressed by his work.
Whether we need an energetic narrator to carry the video or a more measured and reassuring voice for an explainer, James is great at finding the right way to hold the audience's attention.
We're usually happy with the first take we receive from him, but if we do need to make changes he always takes our feedback on board immediately.
It's also really useful that he's great at writing - we often ask him to create scripts based on a brief, or to finalise the drafts we receive from clients to make sure they sound natural.
Evergreen Design House
James is so easy to work with - he always responds quickly to emails, and he typically delivers recordings within hours of us requesting them.
He's great at helping us to find the right style of delivery for a script, and he's super accommodating if we need to make any changes.
If our script is still in the draft phase, it's really reassuring to know that we can send it to James and he'll refine it so that it reads perfectly. He can even translate from Italian which is really helpful for us!
Linguisticator
James went above and beyond and delivered two great takes in record time.
He followed the brief closely and provided exactly what I was looking for.
James is a great choice if you're looking for a natural British voice over. Highly recommended!
