Excellent work! We are a German Film-Production and needed a quick recording for one of or clients. Kurt realized everything in a terrific way.
Fast, professional and with a brilliant voice. Thanks again. Looking forward to
engage you again.

- Martin A. Leimbach CEO Gateway57 Limited, Branch office Munich/Germany

I first became acquainted with Mr. Kelly in 2010, when a client of ours
requested a voice sample after having heard Kurt’s commercial demo off
AudioFreelances website (my company). Needless
to say, he got the job.

It was a pleasure to work with Kurt on the promotional video - PureMed. I would
like to express my respect and appreciation for this fine voice talent, who
brought outstanding contribution to PureMed’s end product. His ability to take
directions, his recording quality and efficiency was second to none.

I look forward to working with Kurt in the near future.

Kurt again in the future! 5 Stars, Adam Caplin, Producer – Director

Working with Kurt is a pure pleasure: great professional with a wonderful voice. Organized

It has been the greatest privilage to know and work with him. Even though I
know him for a short time, I'm very proud to call him an associate and friend.
I admire his professionalism, promptness, dedication and trusted networking
partnership. I highly recommend him and very sure that his partnership is

the industry makes him a sure bet for any project.”

"Fred R. Barnard once said in the advertising journal Printers’ Ink, “A picture is worth a thousand words.” Of
course Fred was promoting the use of images for advertising and since Fred said
this in 1921 we can reasonably deduce poor Fred hadn’t heard the voice of Kurt
Kelly! But I have.

I haven’t anything close to Fred’s fame but I do
have good ears. And I can tell you without reservation that Kurt Kelly’s voice
is worth a thousand pictures. When you need something assuridly sold – hire
Kurt Kelly and let him tell your story. I did. And I would again."

meticulous, passionate and committed - he's the multi-talented individual you
want for your production to be executed seamlessly. I trust him to lead any of
my projects and I highly recommend Kurt for your media production and voice

“Simply stated.... Kurt is a talented, ambitious and creative guy.”

John Mammoser, Comedy Writer / Voiceover / Audio Engineer, Clear Channel

“Kurt has a world of experience behind him... a solid performance and sound with a lot of "gut and soul" to
his work.”

Rick Lance, Voice Over Artist, Rick Lance Studio

“Kurt is an extremely talented VO artist. He's got a great voice and is a real pro in every sense of the word.”

Steven Reisberg, VO Booth Director, TGMD Talent Agency

“Kurt's talent is not to be outdone by his generosity and good nature. I am also a voiceover artist and look forward to the day that I might actually work with him in the near future. Regards,

Bridget Bridget, California State University-Northridge

“Kurt's attention to detail and professionalism is un-surpassed......not to mention he's a great guy to work
with. A truly amazing talent!”

Billy Craig, Owner/Partner, imusiccd.com

“If a picture is worth a thousand words.... strong voice messages must be worth at least 795. You must project a strong image when you do radio, online voice-over for streaming video presentations, podcast, even positive v/m and switchboard announcements. I believe professional voice work is a component of success, and a unified "image" with Kurt's voice across the enterprise is a subtle but powerful addition.”

Tibby Brown Parachute Manager, Venture Capital firm

Hello Kurt, my name is Ben Valks and founder of the Black Jaguar Foundation. So far your voice has made a very good impression in one 'boardroom' already.. and reactions from others are positive too.. We are happy with the result, thanks for your part of charity fee / contribution to the project.

Thanks for spreading the 'word' that Wild Black Jaguars still exists......, but that it's just a matter of time, if the illegal deforestation and hunting goes on! 90% of the total jaguar population of 1970 has already been wiped out!

You have great range. My favorite is the one that’s about 75% LaFontaine, 20% Morgan Freeman, and 5% Kiefer Sutherland.

Mike Kunert

Excellent. I'd hire you. Maybe if they'd hire me at CNN that could happen. Good work.
