Voiceovers Made Easy

A tremendously versatile voiceover artist, Kate Burns is that rare find: someone who can nail the creative you’re looking for while also possessing the copy, production, and management skills that will make your project (and your life) so much easier.

Kate is particularly adept at projecting a natural, engaging, sincere tone that can be upbeat and bright or smooth and sultry. And as a fluent Spanish speaker, she can add customized consistency to multiethnic campaigns and projects. She’s available for on-site work in the Chicagoland area, or can easily produce your creative in her Pro Tools home studio.

All this, and she's well-known for being extremely responsive and turning projects around on a dime.

What's not to love?

  • It was a pleasure working with you and thank you for producing a wonderful and exciting book for our students!

    ~ Daniel Casper, Learning Ally

  • I love sessions with Kate because they always come out great. She delivers a warm balanced sound with great attitude and also has an excellent skill set. If we need to pickup days, weeks, or months later Kate can hear the original and give me an accurate match in tone and pace. Makes my job easy.

    Scott Steinman / Recording Engineer / Studiomedia Recording Company

  • Kate is a true professional. She is always prepared, collaborative and willing to go the extra mile to get our recordings exactly how we need them. She is flexible with scheduling, prompt and truly a delight to work with.
