Heard as the voice for Sony Pix Movie Channel, Jacuzzi, the Consumer Technology Association Awards, and even rocket launches at Cape Canaveral, Kira Gurnée is a full time Voice Over actress with more than a decade of experience on the mic.
You may recognize her from TV shows, Films, Movie networks, Video Games, Documentaries, Museum tours, Commercials, Infomercials, Brand videos, Explainer videos, Awards shows, Live Event announcements, Animation, Trailers, Promos, Training videos, Tutorials, E-Learning and even the occasional phone system.
With a wide vocal range and knack for nailing what someone “hears” in their head, Kira has done thousands of projects including promos for The Hunger Games Mockingjay, In Show Narration for the reality competition car show, Street Tuner Challenge, artist bios for the Grammy’s Pacific Northwest awards, and book trailers for best selling authors Janet Evanovich, Debbie Maycomber, Kristin Hannah, and Sophie Kinsella.
Her voice is the one guiding you through many of Google’s help videos. She reminds the audience to silence their cell phones at the Kennedy Center, trains pharmaceutical reps about drugs from Astra Zeneca, Novartis, Merck and many others. She even helps our first responders learn how to best protect themselves with bullet proof vests.
A huge vocal range and sense of fun allow Kira to play various characters from grade school age to old age and she has a catalogue of voices ranging from little boys to evil queens, with a bit of everything in between. She’s done video game trailers and characters, including for Galahad 3093, animated films, cartoons, and even on screen avatars that interact with a live event audience – which she also learned to puppeteer at the same time!
With her knowledge of Medical terminology, Kira is at the top of the list for Educational videos from the American Heart Association, City of Hope, and many others, since producers know they can count on her to get the pronunciation right and actually understand the material. She takes pride in making the script engaging, interesting, and easily understood by the listener – and surprising clients by cutting down the time needed in the studio and editing booth. A true “one take wonder.”
Kira has a broadcast quality studio and loves collaborating in directed sessions. Clients love that she’s easy to work with, takes adjustments and script changes on the fly, understands the audience for a project, is quick to pick up on small details in the script, maintains good energy and vocal quality, and can even spot grammatical errors and suggest changes if English isn’t their first language. Kira is also an accomplished copywriter and available for more help with scripts.
Kira is happy to work with advertising agencies, production companies, or directly with clients. If you have a project in mind, just fill out the request form and she will be happy to give you a sample read and a quote.
If the script is finalized, she can often give you a same day turnaround within a few hours!
When she’s not in the booth, you’ll find Kira hiking, snowboarding, standup paddling, taking her car to the track, or singing and dancing gleefully in her living room….and inventing new versions of Monty Python’s famous “Funny Walks.”
