Alex Somerville —
Voice Actor.

A single-page brand site for a Toronto-based VO talent: commercial, video games, animation, motion capture. Built in a week.

Three themes

Casting calls happen everywhere: green-room iPads at noon, late studio sessions, agents on phones. The site ships with three looks: a clean Light default, a warm Dark for night work, and a Miami Vice mode because some days you want to remind a casting director that voice acting is fun.

Beyond the hero

A walk through the rest of the site, each section shot in whichever theme suits the read. Same site, four moods.

Bio and credits, in one read.

Photo, paragraph, and a row of recognizable credits (See, Titans, Adults, Star Trek: Starfleet Academy) plus the union and citizenship tags casting directors filter on. Everything a director needs before they decide to keep scrolling.

Selected work

Credits laid out for skim.

Studios, projects, episodes, networks, year. None of the brag-wall layout. A short film/TV reel plays inline at the bottom for casting directors who want to see the on-screen work too.

The trust-building details.

Rode NT1-A, Apollo Solo, Adobe Audition. Zoom and Source Connect Standard. Listed plainly, the boring specs that get a remote session greenlit. Miami Vice mode for when the read is fun, not formal.

Contact

One short form, one direct email.

Name, email, project. That's the form. Direct address right under it. Agent and IMDb after that. No third-party intake form, no email-gate. Just enough surface to start a conversation.

Build notes

  1. 01

    One page, one job.

    The site has one job: book the actor work. Everything else (credits, resume, contact) lives one click away. The home page exists to play your demo and prove you can do the work.

  2. 02

    Audio as the hero.

    VO talent sells with their voice, not their bio. The audio player is centered, fast to start, and works across every commercial / video-game / animation slot a casting director might filter for.

  3. 03

    Light + dark, by request.

    Casting portals get viewed everywhere: green-room iPads, late-night phones, agent laptops. A theme toggle isn’t a feature, it’s respect for where it gets viewed.

  4. 04

    Why this shape stuck.

    Once it was running for me, the structure became obvious: hero + audio + credits + resume + contact, in that order. It’s the shape I keep landing on for actors with a focused, single-medium career.

Want one of these?

$1,500, about a week. Your demos, your reads, your link. Talk to Anton on the homepage or write me directly.
