IT STARTS WITH
An endless passion for stories, for voices,
for discovery, for people, for life.
WHO AM I?
My name is Cromerty York, and I was born and raised in Stoke-on-Trent, Staffordshire. I'm a professional and well-known Voice Over Artist working around the world.
As one of the most established and experienced female voice over artists in the UK, I have an excellent range, meaning I’m capable of changing my tone, sound and accent, and even dialect.
These skills mean I get a lot of work in video games and apps, as well as on TV and radio – my versatility is such that I’ve played anything from a Scottish mushroom to a vengeful Goddess.
What Do I Do?
One of my major strengths are the “natural reads” (think a lovely chat with your best friend).
As a professional voiceover artist, my work can be heard globally across many platforms, including video games, TV commercials and radio, as well as documentaries, radio, explainer videos, company web-sites and e-Learning.
My voice has been described as sounding natural, bright, friendly, warm and inviting.
Where Have You Heard Me?
You might have heard me whilst you were calling your bank, on TV commercials, radio, video games, short movies - including the new John Panton short, Surveyor, and audio tours (including the Victoria and Albert museum in London, and the Netherlands Tourist Board), and Reality House on YouTube.
I’ve worked for clients in The Falkland Islands, Antarctica, Europe, The Middle East, America, Australia and the UK, all from my own professional studio (based in North Yorkshire, UK). I have a reputation for producing clear recordings in any format you request, with a turn-around time (dependent on length of script) of one hour. I am also equipped to record via ipDTL, CleanFeed and Source Connect Pro, or with direction over Skype, Zoom or Discord from my top-class professional studio.
My varied client list includes NASA, The European Space Agency, M&C Saatchi, Nestlé, Toyota, the European Parliament, Fisher-Price, Lidl, Philips, Oral-B and Credit Suisse. I have also worked for numerous UK and global radio stations, as well as a variety of production houses and video game companies.
Which Accents Can I Do?
I am a Northern Voice Over Artist, and can confidently speak in a range of UK accents including the Potteries, North Yorkshire, Bolton, Liverpudlian, Scottish and Welsh.
How Did I Start In Voiceover?
I first became interested in voice over whilst I was living in Minnesota. Along with L.A. and New York, Minneapolis is considered one of the main hubs of voiceover work. I trained with the School of Voiceover, immediately got an agent and started voicing TV Adverts and Corporate Videos.
Once I moved to the UK, I was able to join Equity and Spotlight (accepted as the first purely Voice Actor, as opposed to a stage or TV actor), and trained with RADA. Since then I have been working consistently as a voice talent, both in the UK and, using my broadcast studio, around the world.
What Other Skills Do I Have?
Besides my native English I also do voice overs in French, German and Spanish (spoken with a slight English accent – but this skill is particularly useful when chatting to European-based clients, as well as doing multi-lingual IVRs) and I am currently studying Welsh.
My language skills have also helped me do work in Finnish and Dutch (neither of which I speak fluently – but I am VERY enthusiastic), making me a truly multilingual voiceover.
I'm also particularly adept at French, German and Russian accents.
