My voice over career had stalled.  I used to do 2 or 3 a week and it had been a couple of years since I’d had any work at all.  I consulted Abbe.  She listened to my old demo, made some very constructive criticisms about what worked and what didn’t and we agreed on what…

Abbe is not your average buddy, and she’s not your average voice over professional either. She has an amazing ear for nuance and atmosphere and a depth of insight into the making of a good recorded voice outcome, unsurpassed by anyone I have ever known and an uncanny ability to communicate that to people she…

As a voiceover artist working mainly in the retail side of the business, I was keen to pick Abbe’s brain to learn more about script analysis and finding my voice for natural and character reads, so I did the  ‘One Day Studio Intensive’.  Abbe’s talent at teaching how to pick the relevant and important words…

Abbe Holmes is a living voice legend, not in a Wizard of Oz kind of way, but in a real human-who-you-trust-with-your-career way.  I’ve worked with Abbe now for years, from voice coaching, to voice-over theory and practice, to crafting my current (and best ever) demo, and consistently she has given me the insight and confidence…

After working with several voice over coaches, no one comes close to Abbe.  She’s not interested in you becoming a ‘good’ voice artist with a ‘good’ demo – she wants you to be brilliant. Abbe has a ridiculously finely tuned ear and she’ll ‘tweak your work until you nail it.’  Abbe is not about gimmicks…

Abbe is an extremely generous woman, mentor and coach… I can’t recommend her highly enough to anyone wanting to break into the industry or needing to brush up on skills & vocal techniques. The One Day Studio Intensive was invaluable to me giving me great technique skills for working with scripts in a studio environment.  Abbe assisted…

Abbe is the sort of coach you always wish for – someone who’s knowledgeable, forthcoming and above all encouraging.  She’s been crucial in helping me find my feet and make a solid start in the industry.  Her extensive knowledge and experience coupled with her warm and incredibly friendly nature make her the ideal voice coach.…

I don’t want to say that I ‘worked’ with Abbe, because she has such an easygoing, fun personality, it didn’t feel like work at all.  Abbe very quickly helped me find where my voice was the strongest fit.  The experience ended with a fantastic commercial demo and a game plan of who to market too,…

Prior to coaching with Abbe,  I’d used my voice in regular presenting , even had a few fans and yet I harboured a terrible secret. I had no idea what I was doing in front of the Mic. I signed up for a ‘One Day Intensive’ and it changed everything….  It was great fun, and…

Abbe, what I picked up from you has followed me into New York studios and is still getting me jobs. Thank you. Stella Pulo,   Actor, Writer New York
