ABOUT
April Watts is a celebrated African American female Voice Actor and Audio Description Performer known for her ability to turn words into an experience. Whether she's crafting immersive Audio Description performances for Hulu, Netflix, BET Plus or HBO or lending her voice to national commercials for brands like Bank of America, Pfizer, and Indeed, April doesn’t just read scripts, she “Magnifies Your Story with Her Voice”.
Her signature sound has been described by NPR's Money Matters podcast as “a warm hug” and that warmth is matched by her professionalism. Before stepping behind the mic, April worked as an investigator, a role that sharpened her attention to detail and deepened her ability to listen and adapt. Like Aretha Franklin laying down a flawless track in one take, April strives for that same studio magic. While she may not always hit it on the first pass, her ability to take direction quickly and deliver exactly what’s needed makes her a dream to work with. Clients often say she makes their lives easier and even gives them back a few precious minutes in their day.
April brings versatility, authenticity, and soul to every project. She welcomes the opportunity to lend her voice to your Audio Description, Audio Drama, Children’s Audio Book, Commercial, Corporate Narration, Documentary, Dubbing, eLearning, Explainer Video, In Show Narration, K-12 Learning, Live Announcer, Museum Tour, Podcast, Political Spot, PSA, Real Estate Tour, Telephony (IVR or MOH), or any voiceover venture you’re ready to bring to life.
