Working Together to Make Magic
Bringing your project to life is a collective effort. Here’s everything you need to know about my process, services, and creative collaboration.
🟡 Step 1: Get in Touch
You can reach out via my contact form or email me directly at voiceover@esmeemyers.com
To help me understand your project, make sure to include things like:
-
Project Type: What kind of project is it - commercial, animation, video game, e-learning, explainer, or narration?
-
Script Length: How long is the script? An estimated runtime or word count works perfectly.
-
Usage & Licensing: Where will the voiceover be used - TV, radio, YouTube, paid social, or internal training? This helps determine usage terms and licensing.
-
Duration of Use: How long will it run - a one-off, seasonal campaign, or long-term project?
-
Script Samples (Optional): If you have a draft script, feel free to send it through - I’m happy to provide a short custom sample if needed 😊
🟠 Step 2: Quote & Sample
Once I’ve got the details, I’ll send you a personalised quote based on industry-standard rates and, if requested, a short sample read of your script so you know what to expect 😊
🟢 Step 3: Lock It In
If everything looks good, I’ll confirm the job and send over a simple contract. From there, I’ll need the final script, any direction notes or references, and we’ll get rolling!
🔵 Step 4: Recording
You’re welcome to direct the session live via Source Connect, Zoom, or Google Meet - or I can record independently and deliver clean, polished audio - usually within 24-48 hours, depending on the scope of the project.
🟣 Step 5: Revisions & Delivery
You’ll receive the final audio in your preferred format. One round of reasonable revisions is included - and I’ll always work with you to make sure you’re happy with the end result.
🤍 Step 6: Wrap-Up
Once you’re all set, I’ll send through the invoice (standard 14-day payment terms) which can be paid via bank transfer, Wise, or PayPal.
Easy as that! And you’re welcome back any time for future collaborations 😊

I do all kinds! Being a professionally trained actor means I get to play - whether that’s diving into quirky characters for animation and video games or bringing warmth and emotion to narration, commercials, explainers, and corporate videos.
I’m selective about the projects I take on, making sure the message behind them aligns with my values and faith. I believe every voice carries influence, and I aim to use mine with care and consideration. If I ever need to decline a project, please know it’s never personal, it's only due to my values and integrity.
I’m based in Tāmaki Makaurau (Auckland), Aotearoa (New Zealand), but I have the joy of working with creatives and clientele all over the world from my broadcast-quality home studio. Distance? Definitely not a problem. My timezone is NZST - New Zealand Standard Time.
Yes absolutely! I love live sessions and getting to meet people from all over the world - it also means we can collaborate in real time and make sure you get exactly what you’re after. I use Source Connect, Zoom, Google Meet or Microsoft Teams - whichever works best for you.
Rates depend on a few key factors - like script length, usage, and licensing. I follow industry-standard voiceover rates and can provide a custom quote based on your specific project needs 😊
No. My voice is licensed solely for the purposes outlined in each individual project agreement. I do not consent to the use of my recordings, likeness, or vocal data for AI training, cloning, synthesis, or machine learning.
My voice is an authentic human performance and not available for AI replication. This means every client receives a distinct sound and performance crafted specifically for their project - never recycled or replicated by artificial systems.
This also applies to any demos or samples found on my website or other platforms. All recordings are protected by copyright and licensing terms and may not be copied, downloaded, redistributed, or used - even partially - for AI training, voice cloning, or similar technologies.
Any unauthorised use of my voice, likeness, or recordings may result in legal action. I deeply value the creative integrity of my work and the trust that comes with each collaboration. If you’re unsure whether your project involves AI tools or outputs, please reach out - I’m always happy to clarify.
I do! I’ve been acting for over 15 years and have worked in film, TV, commercials and theatre. I’m always up for a good script, a good laugh and a great crew. If you’re looking to cast something, let’s connect.
Yes! I’m a trained screenwriter and script consultant, and I love developing stories and scripts - whether it’s a character-driven film or you need someone to develop an idea. Let’s collaborate.
Definitely! I love speaking at events, on panels, and on podcasts - especially when it comes to performing, storytelling, voiceover, faith, and all the things creative.
I’ve had the privilege of MCing national events, hosting interviews, and sharing real, grounded insights with audiences ranging from industry professionals to emerging creatives.
If you're looking for a guest, MC, or speaker who can blend humour, heart, and honest storytelling - let’s have a kōrero and chat about your event!
No worries at all - just get in touch here, and I’ll help you figure it out. I’m always happy to chat through ideas, even if you’re still working out the finer details 😊
