For over twenty-years, Rob Actis has been providing businesses of all types amazing results through the use of his well-trained voice. Rob is the in-show voice for the show “Four Wheeler TV,” which is featured on The Outdoor Channel. He has also voiced several highly-acclaimed episodes of “Hot Rod TV.” While Rob is an sought after television voice-over artist, he has also worked with many high-profile corporate clients. Some of these clients include Sharp Healthcare, Crower Racing Cams, Dymo and BestBuy, which is only a small list of his ever-growing corporate resume.
With such a powerful and talented voice, he has been involved in many audio books as their voice talent. Some of his most successful audio books include “Bill Gates Speaks,” “Napoleon Hill’s, ‘The Master Key to Riches,’” as well as “Napoleon Hill’s, ‘Grow Rich with Peace of Mind.’” Due to his soothing and captivating voice, Rob is one of the most sought after narration voice talents in the country. With his easy-to-understand voice, Rob was chosen to complete a training CD-Rom program for FinalCut Pro, which featured 5 ½ hours of instruction for the training program, “Killer Titles.”
While these accomplishments are great, they are only the tip of the iceberg of Rob Actis’ resume. With his popular voice in-demand, he has voiced over 250,000 IVR telephone prompts and has also completed over 1,000 On Hold message productions. One aspect about Rob that truly makes him the best at his profession is the fact that he is able to successfully perform a wide variety of projects and vocal styles. His voice has graced numerous radio, television and in-store ad campaigns as well as being featured on several games. Even though these accomplishments are great, his daughter finds that her favorite voice over is the one her father did for a talking toy bear. Of course, when you have a father as talented as Rob, you couldn’t ask for a better bedtime story reader.
How I Work
I believe in consummate professionalism: I get my deadlines and I meet them, end of story. I’ve learned the importance of high-quality audio and quick turnaround times, and I record exclusively in a professional studio. I’m passionate about professional voiceover services, and I’ve invested in quality equipment to make sure everything I send is top-notch audio.
Yet, as much as I love the challenges of interpreting copy and spending time in the studio, my favorite part of my job has always been the relationships I get to form with my clients. I don’t want to hand you a cold, impersonal questionnaire and walk away. I want to know about your business, your needs, your expectations, and your highest goals. I want to know anything and everything you’re looking for, so we can knock each voice-over project out of the park. In short, I want to learn about you.
I don’t do cold, prepackaged figures, either. I’d rather work with you and figure out exactly what your requirements are. Whether you’re an ad agency, production house, or an independent business, I’d like to talk with you and find out about your needs:
What is your company’s overall message?
What kind of style are you looking for?
How do you want the customer or audience to feel when they hear the voice-over?
What tone are you looking for (sunny and friendly, compelling and attention-grabbing, warm and reassuring, articulate and composed, etc.)
I love taking the time to get to know my clients and their companies, and I embrace the challenge of making copy resonant, evocative, and most importantlymemorable.
