Some of the documentaries I've narrated
I am a moderately successful voiceover artist
Today’s post is part grift (need more work), part brag (look at what I’ve done) and part archive.
I am, as you will probably know, a moderately successful voiceover artist.
I’m sometimes asked, and I’ve often wondered, how many documentaries I’ve actually narrated. So (part grift, part brag, part archive) I thought I would compile a record. The list is below. (There is also this spreadsheet, which I will try to keep updated).
I make is 581 in total (if one series of six episodes counts as 6 docs). It should easily rise to 750 if you factor in all the stuff from 1994-2007, which was a prolific period, but for which I have no record except in my unreliable head. (This included a spate of stuff done in a weird northern accent - the market wanted northern accents). There is also a ton of sports stuff I did for Eurosport and IMG/TWI in the 1990s, if that counts. Again no record.
Anyway here, in reverse order, is the list. There are bound to be a few omissions, double entries and other errors, but it is as good as I can do. (And I don’t expect anyone in the right mind to read through it all).
Some of them have got amazing titles: Fireball of Christ, Martian Robots, the Next Megaquake.
You’ll notice that in the last 3 years the work has tailed off a bit - wrong age, wrong sex, wrong colour (!)
