Narration is fun, and characters even more so,
All this started when, as a child, I memorised about ten fantasy films off by heart - Harry Potter, LOTR, Disney, Dreamworks… you get the picture. Such repetition can only be accomplished by someone who has nothing else to do. I’m glad I did, and even more glad that the love for it hasn’t wavered.
RP British accent
(Pride & Prejudice - Jane Austen)
I get a chuckle out of Mr Darcy’s quiet disdain and gruff intelligence here. It is clear to him that the rapturous Miss Bingley isn’t quite as rarefied as she herself believes…
Science Narration (Universe in a Nutshell - Stephen Hawking)
My academic science background helps me understand challenging source material quickly, and read it to the listener with intention. I am also able to suggest edits for clarity.
Children’s + characters (Grandpa’s Great Escape - David Walliams)
Young and old - I love this intimate scene of Grandpa and little Jack imagining planes flying overhead… to the displeasure of mum!
Indian accent
(Age of Vice - Deepti Kapoor)
I was raised in the UK and born in India, and feel confident in providing a sliding scale of Indian accent strengths, ensuring characters are realistic without being caricatures. This has always been important to me.
Fantasy narration & characters
(The Lord of the Rings - J.R.R. Tolkien)
A terrified Frodo Baggins discusses with a weary Gandalf about the looming threat of the Dark Lord Sauron. A timeless classic which uses my full character vocal range.
Scottish accent
(Coronation Year - Jennifer Robson)
The wistful Edie exchanges life stories with Jamie - a lawyer who has dived into his new life as an artist.
