Steven L Smith

Voice Actor

In marketing, the message is important. Saying the right thing about your product or service is crucial. Words must be chosen carefully; copy must be written with accurate grammar and tone. But the method in which that message is delivered is equally important — if not more important than the message itself. Media theorist Marshall McLuhan, in his 1964 book, Understanding Media: The Extensions of Man, even goes so far to say that "the medium is the message".

Taking his cue from the traditional method of allocutio, Steven L Smith has developed a voice that can authoritatively deliver any message with forceful conviction — while still remaining accessible to your audience. Explaining highly technical terms in an easily-digestible format is his forte, as well as everyday announcing.
