The older I get the better my voice – and the better my voice-overs
It’s like a frequent-flyer upgrade at the gate: you’re shuffling along with the crowd when suddenly you hear your name, and a smiling crew member hands you a new boarding pass and you turn left. After more than 20 years in the voice-over business I am the good-natured and intelligent man: trust me, I know what I’m talking about.
I used to want to sound like George Clooney
Now I’m quite happy to sound like myself. My specialty is what they call mid-Atlantic, trans-Atlantic or neutral English: I’m a native speaker, but you’re not quite sure where I’m from. I’m good with languages. I can crank up the American if you like or sound a bit British. And my various non-native accents are pretty good too.
My sound is generally easy-going, but I can also be energetic and motivational.
A number of years ago I built a studio in my home. I can now deliver broadcast quality audio 24 hours a day. I do voice-over work for companies like Visa, Heineken, Lego, KLM and McDonalds, and agencies like Ogilvy, Wunderman Thompson and TBWA.
I also make films and you can book me as an actor.
Want to know more? Just send me a message. I’d love to hear from you!
Neutral English voice-over Michael Krass
I am an American voice-over artist based in Amsterdam, specializing in mid-Atlantic or international English – that’s English that’s not too American and not too British, when you want to appeal to a broad audience – and don’t want to offend anybody.
American voice actor–who’s not too American
A premier voice-over artist best known for my authentic, conversational approach, I do voice-overs for companies like Visa, Heineken, Lego, KLM, Phillips and agencies like Ogilvy, Wunderman Thompson and TBWA.
Professional studio for quick turnaround
I have my own sound-proof studio with professional equipment. I usually deliver within 24 hours. For a live session, you can call in on Zoom, Teams, Skype or whatever. Or you can brief me. I always do a number of takes. And retakes are not an issue – as long as they’re based on delivery or approach. I’m just as happy to come to your studio if that suits the job better.
Michael has a unique talent. A voice that exudes natural authority. A warm and pleasant tone that adds expertise to whatever the subject is.
Michael makes us sound good.
Michael’s approachable and flexible work ethic makes him a pleasure to collaborate with. Alongside his unique voice and friendly personality it’s clear why he is always one of the first talents we will offer to our clients.
