Choice of voice can make or break a TV or radio campaign.
I have a huge casting database containing thousands of voice samples that you won’t find on agents’ websites.
I’ve cast the voices for dozens of commercials, including major campaigns for Sainsbury’s, Sony, VW, Samsung and Compare The Market.

Paul hasn't written this bit. Other people have.

He began his career as a van driver at AMV before becoming a copywriter at Y&R, JWT and BMP DDB. In that time, he has won practically every award the industry has to offer including three D&AD pencils. He has also chaired a number of awards juries including D&AD, Creative Circle and the Aerials.

He's won so many Aerial Awards that they gave him a special Lifetime Achievement Award. He was also presented with a Radio Advertising Fellowship at The House of Lords.

Uniquely among writers, Paul produces commercials too. Either his own scripts or other people's. Always makes them better. Every year he facilitates the IPA Radio Producers Course.

He has about thirty years' experience at top agencies working with every sort of client. So he can just get stuff done quickly and brilliantly.

As a brand consultant, he has worked closely with the Leon chain of fast food restaurants

He's also had four novels published. One of them, Father Frank, is being turned into a film.

He's a frequent contributor to Radio 4, Five Live and BBC London.

"I've worked with Paul many times over the years. He's one of the best and a real pleasure to be around"

Rob Brydon.

"Paul Burke is both the first and last word when it comes to radio. There is no one more talented, more experienced and more enjoyable to work with"

Richard Reed. Co-founder - Innocent Drinks.

"If you want the words to sing and dance and charm and sell... you want Paul Burke"

Peter Souter. Chairman TBWA UK.

John Cooper-Clarke, Bernard Manning and Michael Gove.
In one of the best episodes ever, John Cooper-Clarke was on Desert Island Discs this morning, Dubbed the "punk poet", he was always much more than that. Interestingly, he praised two very unlikely, very un-punk figures for aiding his success. He credited Bernard Manning with giving him his first break. But years before that, his English teacher instilled a love of poetry in the whole class by making them read poems off-by-heart "Michael Gove style" which, he said was "the only way". I worked with him once and he was wonderful - simultaneously weird and very down-to-earth. He was also the palest, skinniest man I've ever seen. He came into the studio, said he was "Fookin' starving", picked up a small satsuma and ate it. "Ooh", he said, "That really hit the spot". Full-up on a satsuma. For me, John Cooper-Clarke, especially with Dion among this morning's choices - always hits the spot.
