Whether recording in his own in home digital studio or at one of the large commercial facilities in town, Riley has the big, rich, clear voice that communicates your message powerfully without being overblown and sounding "announcer-y." Need proof? Here's a small sampling from some recent clients:
"Thanks for the fast delivery. I reviewed the voice-over and it's great! Nice work! I've put you in our voices database so if we need another US male voice, you'll hear from me again." Robbie Clearbout, www.instruxion.com, Brussels, Belgium
"I have hired Riley for a number of productions from commercials to corporate videos. Great voice and just a pleasure to work with. Riley's a complete pro. Any time his voice fits a project, you can bet I'll be giving him a call." Troy Scheer, Trance Production Group, Carrollton, TX
"We have been very satisfied both with Riley's attitude and his versatile delivery. The fact that he has his own facilities for recording and transferring audio have been a tremendous advantage when we have needed last minute, on-site changes made to our presentations."
Leah Fry, Marketing Department,Torchmark Corporation
"I had a very time sensitive project and the deadline was fast approaching. Our normal VO guy wasn't working out and I had to find someone at the last minute, literally 24 hours before the deadline. I had never used Riley before so I was putting a bunch of eggs in his basket and he totally nailed it for us. He turned around the material quickly and it sounded great. Not just the voice, but technically the audio was very clean and really worked well for us. We will use Riley again in the future, no doubt." Bryan McCullough, 617 Production Group, Richardson, TX (http://617pg.com)
"We appreciate the quality reads that you have provided us." Tristan Chaika, All Pro Media, Burlington, NC (www.allpromedia.com)
"Riley, you did an excellent job on this week's recordings. I was so impressed I wanted to call Dr. Johnson myself!"
Vernice Beal Kendricks, Intelemedia Communications, Richardson, TX (www.intelemedia.com)
"You're great- we love working with you!" Pam Lauritzen, Wahl Corporation, Dallas, TX
"Dude, you're good!" Rachael Turnage, The Richards Group, Dallas, TX

Since moving to North Texas in 1996, he's done a staggering amount of work for local, regional and national clients in radio, video, TV and DVD formats. Riley has appeared in on camera commercials for Robb & Stucky Furniture and Middlekauf Ford as well as an industrial video for Marconi Communications. "That was different," he recalls.

Commercial radio and TV spots include clients like Auto Glass Plus, Callaway’s Nursery, Collin County Fair, Doctor Furniture, Don Herring Mitsubishi, Grand Prairie Ford, Habitat For Humanity, Home Depot, Life Savers Candy, Money Mailer, Northside Ford, Quiet Escape, Spenco, Superior Auto Group, The Cash Store, White Tail Bucks calendar and Wingstop.

"I've been a voiceover specialist in the greater Dallas/Ft. Worth area for over 10 years. While I've worked in many of the area's best studios, I now record from my home studio, The Turquoise Room, whenever possible. I use a variety of digital audio recording programs on a Macintosh computer for great results that sound incredible! I can record whenever someone needs something in digital audio, edit and either e mail, upload to .ftp site or burn and ship CD's to anyone anywhere in the world. It can be done instantly and since I work quickly, I can save clients hundreds or even thousands of dollars compared to other voice talents. Here's just one example. I did the Callaway's Nursery spots with Troy and Nancy Scheer at Trance Productions (www.trancemarketingroup.com) in Carrollton, TX in April, 2000. The rep from Callaways cleared his schedule for two days to be with us in the studio for the actual sessions. He did so since they needed 29 spots recorded and it took two days with another voice talent the previous ad campaign. Troy and I completed all 29 spots by lunchtime the first day! He was blown away and said, 'What do I do now?' I quipped, 'I don't know about you, but I'm going to Callaways!' We all laughed, and those spots earned an award for Best Regional series. "
