It was never about having a good voice.
That's the part nobody tells you. I've recorded beautiful voices that couldn't make anyone feel a thing, and ordinary ones that stopped a room. The instrument isn't the job — the job is meaning it. Feeling the words as they leave you, and letting that travel down the wire.
Some people are wired for it and have never been told. Some aren't, and I'll tell you straight. Five minutes will start to answer it.

You're not learning from a course.
You're learning from Craig Ross.
20 years in the South African voice industry. When he tells you why one read books and another doesn't, that's the same ear that scores the country's best.
Radio. Podcasts. Ads. Narration.
Same craft underneath.
Someone speaking to someone else, on a microphone, and meaning it. Learn that and the format stops mattering.
Five trailers. Five tones.
One voice.
Promo sessions for M-Net and MultiChoice — the same voice moving between menace, warmth and high energy. This is the job you're training for, and the person teaching it.
5 Trailers. 5 Tones. 1 Voice.
One voice across five different promos — the range a working promo voice is hired for.
Voicing Venom
A movie promo session: weight, menace and restraint in the same read.
Voicing Animania
Bright, fast and character-led — the opposite end of the range.
Most courses teach you to read. We teach you to mean it.
Comprehension before delivery
You don't say words — you think thoughts. A voice can't honestly deliver a script it hasn't understood, so every lesson forces the understanding first. Listeners hear intention, not technique.
I've been on both sides of the glass
Sound engineer first, voice artist second, still doing both. When a take isn’t working I can tell you whether it’s your performance or your microphone — and most coaches genuinely can’t tell the difference.
You train in a real studio, not a slideshow
Record, direct, mix and deliver in the browser — teleprompter, take stacking, production library, full broadcast DAW. It’s the room you learn in and the room you’ll work in.
You don't just learn in a studio.
You learn in the one you'll work in.
Elite students train in SessionPlug — a full professional recording studio that runs in a browser tab. No DAW to buy, no plugins to install. The same room you learn in is the one you deliver client work from.
The Artist plan normally runs at R199 a month for working artists. On a coached programme it's free the whole way through, then half price for your first year out — so you're not carrying a studio bill while you're still landing your first jobs. When you outgrow it, Studio+ (R599/mo) is the same studio with more of everything — higher limits and the full feature set.
Broadcast-grade metering
LUFS-I, BBC PPM ballistics, true-peak and clip detection. Deliver audio that meets spec the first time — the thing that separates a hobbyist file from a broadcast master.
A real FX chain
Parametric EQ with a Broadcast VO preset, compressor with full attack/release/knee/makeup, gate and noise reduction. Learn to finish your own audio instead of paying someone to.
Takes, comping & direction
Stack unlimited takes, star the keepers, leave notes, and comp the best read together. Script panel alongside the timeline — exactly how a real session runs.
Deliver to clients
Bounce, master and deliver straight from the browser. No DAW licence, no plugins, no install — on any machine, anywhere.
Most people finish training and hit a wall: no studio, no way to meet broadcast spec, no way to deliver professionally. You'll already be set up, already know the tools, and already be working in them — at half price for your first year out.
This is what the coaching
actually looks like.
Not polished promo footage — real students, mid-lesson, being directed until the read lands. Shot on a phone, because that's how it really happens.
Michael, coached live — hear it, then perform it
Ear training in real time: Craig reads it, Michael finds it.
This isn't a video course.
It's a room you get to be in.
Real sessions, real direction, real people finding their voice — and a coach who's been doing this for twenty years standing on the other side of the glass.
Two books. Thirty-five thousand words.
Both free.
Everything I know about this craft is written down. Start with the manual, then read the twenty years behind it. You don’t need to buy anything to learn from me.
Booth Camp
The working manual. Breathing, microphone technique, the three sells, character, demos and the business — with the exercises to drill each one.
74 pages · 9 illustrations · beginner
Behind the Glass
Twenty years on both sides of the studio glass — the craft, the psychology, the industry, and the frameworks I built to teach it.

Where should I send them?
Both books land in your inbox straight away. No spam — just the books and the occasional thing worth reading.
Your people already speak for your brand.
Train them to do it well.
The VOISA Boothcamp runs as a live group workshop for companies. Craig flies to you and runs it in your boardroom — or online if your team is spread out. Practical, on-mic, everyone reads and everyone gets directed. No slide decks about "communication skills".
Leaders & presenters
Executives who present, pitch and appear on camera — trained to sound certain instead of rehearsed.
Client-facing teams
Sales, support and account teams who live on calls. Warmth, clarity and control under pressure.
Comms & brand teams
Anyone recording internal video, training content or brand audio — in-house, without an agency.

Guess-before-reveal lessons train your ear and your instinct, one component at a time.
Get AI + coach feedback
Every submission is scored instantly and reviewed personally by Craig — text, rating, and voice notes.
Take it to market
Finish the Journey with a professional demo, then apply to the VOISA roster — where briefs and auditions come through the platform.
Most courses end with a certificate.
We'd rather hand you a demo and a door.
When you finish, you don’t just get a PDF and a handshake. You leave with a professional demo and the option to apply to the VOISA roster — a live marketplace where briefs and auditions come in, with escrow and payouts handled in-platform. We can’t promise you bookings. We can make sure you’re ready for them, and put you where they happen.

"VOISA gave me more than a demo — it gave me a voice I trust under pressure. The instant feedback on every take meant I never practised a bad habit twice. The studio you train in is the studio you work in. That changes everything."
"In a short time I was helped immensely and given real direction. The coaching is professional, the feedback is honest, and the platform is built for people who actually want to work. VOISA is a no-brainer for partners in voiceover."
"I came in thinking I just needed a better mic. I left with a read that books. Craig’s feedback is surgical — he hears the one habit you’ve been hiding from yourself and fixes it in a single session. This is where amateurs become artists."
