As we all know Michael Caton’s success with “The Castle” has branded his voice with the fatherly wisdom of suburban Australia. Every time we slip on Ugg boots, pick a flannelette shirt from the cupboard or pack up the family for a long drive to God-knows-where – his voice travels with us. But instead of thinking that would limit his range to typically “Australian” things, think of Michael this way. If Australia means “a fair go”, then his voice provides a balance of fair and equal trading between everyone. He can sort our arguments, he can present a good case for men and women either on the factory floor or sorting out shelf space in the bathroom. He has a way with all ages. He could teach your kids who Don Bradman was and tell your grandparents who The Veronicas are. He can introduce others to our strange customs. He can remind visitors about the heat and to swim between the flags. Scientific enough to explain nature, honest enough to make me believe I’m getting a good deal, friendly enough to make me think he’s a relative. I once borrowed a mower from Michael and we ended up talking about all sorts of things. If you have a difficult subject to discuss – wait awhile and we’ll get around to it. Sure, it’s not pleasant but it’s got to be addressed. He might tell you it’s a bit dust in his eye that’s making him shed a tear – but deep down, his voice tells us exactly what it is to love Australia. It’s no wonder he has a second life as a voice of common sense when buying a house. Everyone now wants him to give a fair and balanced reason why things are, how they work so we can all live happily ever after.

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.
