Natural Accent = British - English R.P. (neutral / BBC / Oxford English)
British voice talent Louise Samuels, is a London-trained actor and musician with 30 years of industry acting and performance credits to her name, including extensive lead and character roles played in theatres including London's West End.
A native Brit who now resides in the US, Louise records & edits broadcast-quality voiceover from her acoustically-treated studio in Santa Barbara, California. Coupled happily with her trusty Neumann TLM102 microphone and having built a reputation on being unpretentious, flexible and super easy to work with, Louise has amassed a slew of happy, regular clients from around the globe and lent her voice to some of the world's best known brands, including - PepsiCo; SONY; Warner Bros; Verizon; HBO Nordic; Procter & Gamble; BBC; Business Insider; Experian; Deloitte; MetLife; Sherwin-Williams; Bollinger Animation and Wizarding World™ .
Highly versatile with an innate gift for comedy, Louise has voiced dozens of notably quirky, eccentric or downright evil characters for commercials and video games such as: 'Warframe - Plains of Eiderlon' ('Fisher Hai-Luk); 'Soul Hunters' (Hero and Sorceress, 'Sylphi') and can be heard as the cold-hearted, meanly sarcastic game host for 'Battle Royale - Islands Of Nyne.' Currently under NDA, Louise is awaiting release of a recently voiced video game character that is arguable the most psychologically complex and grotesque to date. Details will be posted in due course!
Since 2021, Louise has proudly served as the contracted female British voice for Renaissance Learning Inc - the global e-learning giant, recently awarded 'Best Education Platform 2024' by CODiE. Louise has now narrated over 300 quizzes for Renaissance's acclaimed online reading program for children - 'Accelerated Reader® UK.'
Louise's vocal tone and delivery style is often described as 'smooth and melodic.' With her audio-sensitive ear and highly musical background, Louise effortlessly voices in both her natural British neutral English accent and across a diverse range of world accents and dialects, including Australian; Scottish; French and East European.
