EMMA CHELSEY
WAAPA GRADUATE
STUDIED ACTING AT THE CONSERVATOIRE SUPERIEUR ART DRAMATIQUE IN PARIS
GRADUATE OF HOWARD FINE ACTING STUDIO IN LOS ANGELES
WORKING PROFESSIONAL ACCENT - USA, BRITISH
No doubt you’ve heard the phrase ‘raising the bar’, but I think Emma Chelsey has gone out and bought her own.
Emma is an experience actor, dancer, singer, percussionist and has followed her acting passion with training in Paris and The United States. Did I mention she’s an animal trainer and does a killer US accent? The sum of all these parts is, like so many of Scout’s voice talent, they continue to raise the professionalism and session-ready skills they bring to each booking.
But there’s a darker, hidden side to Emma’s bar-raising, bar-owning qualities and you won’t find it in her voice. It’s rumoured Emma can inflict pain and injury with a raised eyebrow or a flick of her hair. Then, if you can take it, comes the steely gaze and the feet planted firmly on the ground to make a point or stand up for what’s right. Only then after all that, can you hear the endless supply of Vitamin D for determination. Its served her well in the continuous round of auditions and performances she’s already given in her early acting life.
I should return to her American accent. It’s flawless and ageless. She has perfected the tone and the inflection after many years in the states and many on camera appearances. Ageless? Emma could easily be the dashboard voice of your Tesla or the documentarian taking you around the Smithsonian.
We get to benefit by all that with access to a local actor who can deliver the goods and open the door to more clients wanting this accent.
Emma Chelsey is another new voice to the impressive Scout Management voice line-up. Some might call her a new style of woman too arriving right when we need her. Strong determined and globally experienced.

Just wanted to drop you a note to say how fabulous Peter was to work with! He was brilliant! Good to know he’s available to do both Australian and NZ voices, we’ll definitely keep him in mind for future jobs.
Working with Scout Voice Management was so easy and professional. We knew we wanted to use Aaron Cartwright – his voice is like rich melted chocolate and he is so amiable and amenable. From the initial inquiry to the actual recording was only a few days. We got exactly what we wanted and have the showreel for our website that we’d hoped for. Thanks to all involved.
What a breeze to work with someone as professional and experienced as Robert Lee — fast and fun, too! He comes prepared so time is spent efficiently, to get just what you need. A pleasure.
We are pleased with the result and I really enjoyed being patched in to the studio for the recording. Nathan Page’s voice is the perfect tone and has the gravitas we needed for the intended audience and Matt from Sonic Playground, was so helpful and thorough throughout the recording, and in all our requests for follow-up editing. They are both very talented and it was a pleasure working with them and getting an understanding of their craft.
Marc James Dwyer’s voice is relatable and authentic and he’s got the craft to control it beautifully.
He’s a dead set legend to record with, interprets scripts and takes direction well, and is always dedicated to fulfilling the trickiest of client briefs with absolute class and confidence.
Felicity, I can’t speak highly enough of not only your incredible skill and nuanced performance, but also of the weight and resonance you brought into the reading yesterday. Your narration provided a gravitas and beauty that I was thankful for in every scene, let alone your vibrant warmth that brought enthusiasm to every individual in the room.
What a gift you have, to welcome people in to storied experiences through your voice, empathy, delivery and choice of nuance – it was such a great pleasure just to witness you in action, and I’m so thankful for the impact you’ve now had on this project in this role. As you read yesterday, I thought to myself ‘why can’t Felicity create every audiobook I’d ever want to read?? This is the voice we all need!’. I hope we’re able to work together many a time over, and it was such a pleasure to meet you.
