Voice Over
About
Dervla is a professional and versatile voice actor who can provide a range of voiceover styles to suit your specific needs, from being a fresh, conversational and friendly young adult, to an articulate and professional businesswoman or lecturer, and everything in between.
She specializes predominantly in a variety of North American accents, ranging from Canadian to General American, as well as more specific U.S. accents ranging from Texan to Californian, to name a few.
She has years of training not only in voice acting, but has also hosted a radio show and multiple podcasts, acted on-camera for commercials, and has an extensive singing background, including being a recording artist and a member of a professional choir.
Friendly, professional, genuine and unique, client satisfaction is top priority and she will work with you to create the perfect voice for your project!
From her home studio, she can record, edit and deliver a ready-to-use file of your choice. She is also happy to discuss recording in-studio if that is preferred.

WHAT CLIENTS ARE SAYING...
Dervla is everything you could possibly ask for in a narrator – her recordings are of the highest quality, her turnaround time is lightning fast, and she’s incredibly easy to work with. An all-around fantastic business partner.
MEREDITH B - FINANCIAL SERVICES INDUSTRY
As director of voice for TwentyBN, I was responsible for casting an actor who could communicate all the nuances of a professional fitness instructor in a fun, friendly, and not-too-serious manner. From Dervla’s very first audition tape, I knew she was the one to bring our character Allie to life. Every callback reinforced that, as she was instantly able to adjust her delivery based on feedback provided by myself, an experienced director, and other members of my team who had never given notes to an actor before. That professionalism and dexterity with the work continues in the studio, where Dervla never fails to exceed expectations despite long sessions and occasionally repetitive, even tedious, tasks (I could listen to her count to 100 all day!)
Dervla even adjusted to a major redirect of the tone and direction of the voice after many hours of recording. She never complains or hesitates, and is often able to anticipate my notes before I give them!
Dervla Trainor is absolutely the finest voice actor I’ve ever worked with and I would totally recommend her for any and all projects without hesitation.
COLIN MUNCH - COPYWRITER & DIRECTOR OF VOICE, TWENTYBN
I've been working with Dervla for over a year and she's been a consummate professional throughout that time - communicative, friendly and striving to deliver what we need (even if it takes a little more effort). I would not hesitate to work with her again.

Data collection for voice synthesis requires large amounts of carefully recorded audio. Whether it's a steady delivery or emotionally charged material, Dervla has shown herself to be patient, versatile, consistent and receptive to our entire teams highly specific needs.It's been fantastic working with her and I hope we'll get to continue with future projects.
