Guy provides an EXCELLENT service to anyone seeking him out. He is wise, knowledgeable, very patient, and honest in the most helpful way possible, and he really invests into the individual client! If or when God steers my life in the direction where that sort of work is feasible for me, he will be my first choice for a Gaming/Animation demo reel.

It is a joy for me after all of these years producing demos to see development in action. From the first Zoom, through the rehearsal and recording session to the final product. I now look forward to seeing your career blossom Ethan. Thank you!

Guy’s passion, expertise and perfectionism for the voice acting craft resulted in a fantastic demo for me. His process is efficient and incredibly effective. He was able to identify and develop what makes me unique and marketable, write material for those characters, coach an excellent performance and edit a final product that has truly helped me to kickstart my voice acting career. Thank you so much, Guy!

It was a pleasure Erika and we made a great team on this project! Working with you to define each piece and then put the whole thing together was a joy. The effort has certainly resulted in a fantastic demo which will serve you well I'm sure! Guy

Not only is Guy Michaels a true professional, but he is an absolute pleasure to work with. His coaching technique is effective and friendly, and his voiceover skills are beyond question. I expect to be working with him again!

I highly recommend Guy to anyone who wants a professionally produced voicereel. From day one, it was clear why he is considered an expert in his field. He knows exactly how to create high quality voice-over recordings that showcase the unique talents and abilities of each performer. He did not just give me a generic script, but he worked with me to find the best style and tone for my voice. He gave me invaluable feedback and guidance on improving my delivery and cadence which resulted in a stripped-down, raw performance without any cheap tricks. Just me, and what I offer the industry. He was friendly, supportive, and extremely attentive throughout the whole process. I felt safe to experiment with the material because we were both working towards the same goal of achieving the best possible results. He gave me time and space to discover what works for me and my voice. I am very happy with the final result and I think it reflects my personality and style as a voice actor. If you are looking for someone who can help you create a voicereel that stands out from the crowd, and are willing to put the work in to meet the standard required, look no further than Guy. He is the best in the business.

thanks Luke! A great collaboration resulting in excellent demos. I've been producing professional voicereels since 2006 and this kind of partnership and commitment to creating something truly unique is exactly the reason I keep going! https://soundcloud.com/voiceover-kickstart/sets/luke-bromley-commercial-voiceover-demos

The voiceover industry suffers from everyone being a "the best in the biz". People start coaching when they've got a few years experience under their belt and there are a lot of charlatans out there.

Guy is not one of these people, he really is incredibly knowledgeable. When recording my demos with Guy it was basically a coaching session too as the direction made me take reads in ways I'd never have thought of myself, and they're all the better for it.

Great service, nice guy. Ha.

Voiceover Kickstart is a brilliant voiceover network - high quality training, regular events to meet with other voiceover artists and frequent opportunities to practise voiceover in a safe environment. Very good value for money and can't recommend highly enough.

Your feedback in the sessions is always really well considered and useful for other members!

Voiceover Kickstart has been invaluable in getting me started properly on my voiceover journey. The quality of the resources is great, the community is itself really useful, and the added extras, like the regular home studio sessions and Supercharge weeks, have been super. Guy also recorded my voice reels, which, together with VOK, have helped me to progress further and faster in my career than I expected.

Reply from VO-Star® 2020.12.16

Just so cool to see everything coming together for you Helena. Happy to be a very small piece of the puzzle! Guy

Voiceover Kickstart is a great place to learn, communicate and expand your skills. Full of expert advice, tools, modules and more! Whether you are an established voice over artist or interested in learning more I would highly recommend taking the 7 day free trail and seeing how Voiceover Kickstart can help you.

Reply from VO-Star® 2020.11.05

Thanks Maria! Looking forward to seeing your career develop and of course, your face and voice on Supercharge Weeks too!

Really enjoyed the process with Guy - he was very helpful and encouraging with scripts and was great during the recording session. He feels very genuine and "real" - he helped me realise what I actually need so as not to spend too much money on things that won't benefit me. I really appreciate it and am very happy with the result!

Reply from VO-Star® 2020.10.28

I hope the demos help to move your career to the next level Astrid! Thank you! Guy

I can not recommend Guy’s services enough! He has a wealth of experience and guides you through the whole process: From the initial consultation, to sourcing material, to the brilliant direction in the session itself. I went into my session feeling totally prepared and excited to work. The session itself was fantastic, I felt completely at ease and Guy’s direction ensures that your best performance is captured. I couldn’t be happier with the finished Demos! The audio quality, editing, post production: everything is top notch! The result of a session with Guy are current, top quality demo reels that represent you and your unique voice. Thank you so much again!

Reply from VO-Star® 2020.10.28

Your energy, positivity and skill made the session a delight Charlotte! Thank for your kind words. Guy

A great resource for ongoing training for professional voice artists, covering all aspects of this career, including the equally important vocal, technical and business sides of the job.

Thanks André. So cool to see your career developing as it has - onwards and upwards! Guy

The community on Voiceover Kickstart is alive and pumping. The Lounge provides a community of people who want to help each other and grow as VO artists, both from a business and a technical standpoint. Additionally, the Supercharge Weeks where we all meet and discuss themes move VOs from amateur to professional. I cannot recommend Voiceover Kickstart and Guy enough, especially to actors who are looking at a way to financially support themselves.

Reply from VO-Star® 2020.07.31

Eleanor, it is a pleasure having you on board. Lovely to connect with someone who simply gets it! You know what you need to do and I look forward to seeing the fruits of your labour. Guy

I recently had a commercial and corporate showreel revamp and overhaul with Voiceoverkickstart and I'm so pleased I did. This time I wanted to explore and showcase some different styles and Guy didn't disappoint. Not only was it a really fun and intensive session, the end results are really diverse, crisp and professional - you are a magician!!

Your voice is the magic potion.....that doesn't even make sense but you know what I mean! Thanks Kate
