Barney, Who?
BARNEY, WHO?
Hello there! I’m Barney, a professional voice actor based in the UK.
![[Used-NO-REFLECT-JPG]Favourite 02b.jpg](https://static.wixstatic.com/media/ce823b_0a9d57ecefdf42c3b7f10c7f40107382~mv2.jpg/v1/fill/w_979,h_517,al_c,q_85,usm_0.66_1.00_0.01,enc_avif,quality_auto/%5BUsed-NO-REFLECT-JPG%5DFavourite%2002b.jpg)
My childhood consisted of three main things; audiobooks, cartoons and gaming. I’m sure you can see the link that connects them all, right?
My mum kicking my vampiric, squared-eye butt out the door to get some healthy
vitamin-D! Well that, and voiceover.
My prepubescent eardrums were liberally bathed in the vocal talents of incredible artists such as Stephen Fry, Nigel Planer, Pete Bradbury, Christopher Sabat, Veronica Taylor, Kerry Shale & Ed Blaylock, and that kicked off a lifelong love of voice acting.
I have been, and continue to be, utterly enamoured and infatuated by the art of communication and the incredible range and power of the human voice, even since I was barely able to talk; a passion that has only deepened as time has gone by.
A DREAM MADE REALITY
I trained at the prestigious Academy of Live and Recorded Arts (ALRA), one of London's top drama colleges. There I honed my skill in all fields of performance, crafting an extensive ‘actors toolbox’ to help me forge living, breathing characters, achieving the rank of voice ninja and mastering the art of script analysis and text-breakdown – knowledge and methodologies I still rely on today in my voiceover work.
​
GETTING MY ACT TOGETHER
Since graduating from ALRA, I was lucky enough to dip a toe in a lot of different performance fields, all of which have lent me considerable experience to draw on as a professional voice actor. I’ve performed in some of the UK’s top theatres such as The Albert Hall, The Royal Exchange, The Donmar Warehouse and the Lawrence Batley.​
I’ve also brought my acting knowledge into the corporate sphere as a professional roleplayer, helping train doctors and other working professionals in comms skills, interview technique and the art of effective communication. Some of my clients in that field include The Department for Work & Pensions, The General Medical Council (GMC), The Royal College of GPs, The Royal College of Surgeons and the Universities of Lancashire, Manchester, Salford, Liverpool, UCLAN & others.

In 2018 I made the decision to go full time with voice acting and I’ve never looked back since!
I now produce broadcast quality audio for clients all over the globe, working out of my purpose build and professional-grade home studio, tackling everything from multinational commercial campaigns, to animated film, gaming titles, eLearning, explainers, audiobooks and everything in between.
I merge a wealth of experience, a carefully cultivated craft and a deep, enduring joy in the art of performance and communication to create vibrant voice acting productions.
