Award Winning Voice Over Demo Production

I chose J. Michael Collins to produce my latest narration demos because of his reputation for quality, attention to detail, and personal service. At my level, it can only be the best, and J. Michael exceeded my expectations. From script development to his stellar direction on demo day, to the industry-standard final mixes, I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Thanks, JMC!

J Michael Collins is a superstar in the world of voiceover; but is the most down to earth, approachable, amazing coach and director I’ve ever worked with. In producing my demo, he created scripts that were crafted to my specific skill sets, and then directed me through the reads to bring out my very best delivery. I felt like a kid on Christmas morning when I received the produced demos (which were delivered incredibly quickly after our recording session!). I was blown away! The music selection, special effects and flow were just perfect! If you want to take your voice over career to the next level, a demo directed and produced by J.Michael Collins will most certainly get you there.

Anyone who wants to have a successful voice over career has to have top notch demos that demonstrate to prospective clients, casting directors, and agents that they can do the job in their own unique and special way. When I decided to update my demos, I considered several very good demo producers but, because the range of genres, production quality, experience, and attention to personalizing each demo for the voice actor’s unique sound, I chose J. Michael Collins. He listened to my vision but also came up with excellent suggestions that I might not have. The sessions were a joy thanks to his collaborative directing style. The turn-around time? Faster than I expected. And the outcome? My agents love my new demos, I’m booking jobs directly from them, and I received a couple nominations, and a VOICE ARTS AWARD for my TV Promo demo. Ready to invest in demos? Remember where to go “when quality matters”…. JMC Demos.

“Your Guide through the business of voice over.” It’s more than just a fun tag line. It’s part of a greater mission and purpose. Getting started in this business is hard enough as it is without having to navigate a sea of bad players looking to take advantage of you under the guise of being a “coach” or “demo producer” or “expert.”

Part of my purpose in creating this platform was to shine a light on the ones you can trust. To point you towards coaches, producers, experts and mentors who can and will genuinely help you and add value to your business.

If I mention their name here, in a podcast, in a video, in an interview, it’s because I know them. I’ve worked with them. I trust them entirely. You can trust them too.

One of those people you can trust is J. Michael Collins. I’m slightly embarrassed to admit that, though knowing and working with him for years, I never had one of his First Class Demos in my portfolio… until now. It’s about time!!

I’ve had the privilege of being coached by him, of sitting on conference panels with him, and even speaking at one of his Euro Retreats. Now I can proudly add my name to the list of top notch demos he’s produced.

Your demos are your most important marketing tool. Your business will live or die by them. For real. Invest in the best demos you can. If you’re looking for the right producer, J. Michael should unquestionably be a name at the top of your list of considerations.

It was a pleasure working with you, my friend. Maybe we shouldn’t wait so long to do the next one together!

Voiceover is a competitive business. We all are aware of how competitive it is for talent but it’s also very competitive for demo producers, coaches and other suppliers.
To be successful you have to stand out.
My search for a demo producer to create showcases of my British talents targeting the US market in the Promo and In-Show narration genres of this business was very specific and I can tell you I reviewed and spoke to many producers.
I chose JMC Demos.
Here’s why.
JMC and his team had experience spanning the Atlantic, they had demonstrable quality in their output and they had relevant experience in the areas I needed.
During the production sessions J Michael has clear thoughts, can communicate them and therefore help you towards the best performance you can give. So he’s a coach too and I benefited from that beyond just getting a demo.
I’ve now taken delivery. My agent DPN has already confirmed, I quote, “It’s a killer demo”
I submitted to a new production house. I’m on their roster.
Am I happy?
A resounding yes
Would I recommend JMC Demos services to you
Another yes.
Do you get value for money
Yes
Another agent quote to finish with after having heard both new demos – “You can always tell the difference between a “make shift demo” vs one that was professionally done.”
To be successful you have to stand out. To me JMC demos stands out and guess what they are helping me stand out too.

My experiences with the JMC Demos team were truly first class. J Michael’s up to date knowledge of industry trends and willingness to co-create coupled with AJs brilliant sound design produced exactly the sonic billboard I was looking for – and paid for itself in one gig that I booked off my demo!

I’m so utterly happy with my new JMC Demos! Not only do they sound great, but the teams professionalism working with my unique needs was unparalelled, and I was VERY picky. The product speaks for itself, but I’d be remiss if I didn’t chime in too! Thank you JMC!

I was always jealous of my friends who got JMC demos done. Now I finally got mine and I couldn’t be happier. Probably the easiest demo session I’ve had so far. I even had a nerdy idea for one of the spots in the demo and JMC made it happen! I can already FEEL the future bookings. Thanks JMC!

I sat-in on JMC’s breakout session about VO for Political commercials at VOA this year and 15 minutes into hearing him speak, I KNEW I wanted to get in the game. Because of his experience in the field, I decided to trust J Michael with crafting my Political Demo from the ground up. With his copywriting, guided by his directing and with AJ McKay‘s sound design, I feel I now have a great targeted demo for pursuing the genre. Thanks JMC!!
