An excellent service in all areas and a fantastic final narration. Colin is a great pleasure to work with, who narrated my high fiction fantasy first and second novels in the series. He is a brilliant voice expert, and can speak in different voices and tones, and has a good consistency throughout. A highly talented voice over narration expert..

My first time working with Colin W, has been a good overall experience. He is an exceptional narrator, with a great voice for this project. He is dedicated in completing to a high standard and is patient with the editing process. Colin is very pleasant to work with, and he has produced a narration master piece. During the editing we were able to clearly communicate, which made the editing process easier. I received a 4 to 5 star audio narration, which was agreeable with the project cost.
