Traditional, British, warm & friendly

Attic rooms with painted walls, big glass windows and wooden floors are not great for audio quality!  So something had to be done!

The answer was a curtain and blinds.  

The blind was pretty straightforward.  The curtain less so.  It hangs from the ceiling and divides the room in two – making the studio part smaller.  

It was a bit of a challenge for the blinds company, and they came out for a second visit to check the measurements.  

However, the fitter was great (I think he enjoyed the challenge) and did a fantastic job. 

The studio now looks really professional once the curtain is drawn across, and the difference in audio quality is significant.  

A carpet is still on the list, but in the meantime, I am using a lot of towels and fluffy fabric to cover up the floor and the metal filing cupboard. 

We are getting there!

Patrick's Resume

Patrick Gee • Voice Artist
Traditional, British, warm & friendly

I’m Patrick Gee, a professional British voice actor. I have a warm and friendly baritone voice, ideal for corporate commercial work, audiobooks, eLearning and video characters.

Acting and voices were a big part of my childhood. As well as making up and acting out stories with my grandmother, I also attended drama classes and studied for the LAMDA speech and drama certificates,

I reached the Bronze Medal stage for acting solo, but then decided to focus more on the production side. So after leaving school, I attended three years at City College Norwich, where I studied performing arts production and creative media.

Since leaving college, I have worked for the family business, Landlord Law services, where I was responsible for filming and recording training courses and doing various other film and editing work.

However, I never lost my love of acting and my passion for voice work. Eventually, I could deny this no longer and so embarked on the training and investment in studio equipment to allow me to follow my passion.

When not working, I love playing Dungeons and Dragons, where my voices have proved very useful for bringing my scenarios to life and amusing my friends.
