Peter Rogers, The Giggle Group: “A lot of female voiceovers seem to fall into one of two groups – young and clubby or mature and corporate. We’ve used Emma recently and were very impressed, she fills the gap between those two extremes perfectly. She has a great voice and knows how to use it, she injects enthusiasm and energy into her reads as well as warmth and pathos. I expect us to be working with her a lot more in the future.”
