What are the clients saying?
Good relationships start with trust.
When hiring a voice over talent you want to be able to trust that you will get the voice over you need — the first time — and that everything will go smoothly.
Read the following reviews from previous clients to hear their experience of hiring Toby Ricketts for voice over.
“I have to say, Toby, that I literally was at a loss for words. I have written really all of my life and have heard my work read before. But here is the thing. When you read my words, I didn’t know what was coming. It was like someone else had written them and I was hearing them for the first time. I did not know such a thing was possible. I am SO glad this crystalized as you were utterly my first choice. I am thrilled to be able to work with you and hope to do so for a very long time.”
“First cut of the VO was so on point, we needed zero revisions! Definitely hiring again for future work.
Thanks Toby”
“My business partner and I had the pleasure of working with Toby Ricketts on our 5-part documentary series for CuriosityStream. To say we were creatively invested in the series is an understatement; we had directed every scene and written every line in each of the 5 scripts. It goes without saying, we knew that finding the perfect narrator for our series was key to giving our story a voice. Toby was that voice. Until we heard him utter those first few lines, we didn’t know exactly what the show would “sound like.” With Toby’s incredibly rich voice, his ability to vacillate between serious tones and dry wit, not to mention his ability to nail the timing and intonation of every take almost immediately, we soon found ourselves with a beautifully narrated series thanks in huge part to Toby. Toby is not only a professional of the first-class, he is flexible and fun to work with. He takes direction well but also offers really good ideas for fun/interesting ways to read certain lines. It was a pleasure working with Toby and we look forward to using his incredible talents in our next series.”
“I think I never was so satisfied with an voice actor before. Normally, many voice actors have good voices, good recording equipment and so on, but I’m almost always missing this special “spark”. A voice actor who not only reads the text out loud in a microfon, but really feels the message behind it and is able to transport authentic emotions.”
“Toby! Wow. I’m so impressed. Your voice is like butter. This is gorgeous. I will put this to music and send to the client for review to see if we need additional takes of anything, but I practically have goosebumps.
How much would it cost for you to narrate my daily life?

“Overall we were very pleased with our experience working with Toby.
The communication was fantastic as we ironed out details of the job and the quality of work received was exactly what we were hoping for.
He offered ‘unprocessed’ and ‘processed’ files which was extremely helpful for our editing. We additionally requested some word redo’s based on different pronunciations, which he did right away.
He recorded different tones of voice whilst reading our script which was very helpful.
Overall we had a great experience working with Toby and we definitely recommend him!”
