A very happy new year and so far it all seems to be about video games.
A Plaques Tale - Requiem is the highly acclaimed video games in which I recorded several of the characters. I had great fun scaring the director and studio engineer with my blood curdling screams as I enacted being bitten by or eaten to death by rats. It has been as is currently nominated for several industry awards.
Embark into a brutal, breathtaking world twisted by supernatural forces. Dive into the sequel of the award-winning A Plague Tale: Innocence, joining Amicia and Hugo on a heartrending new journey. Venture across an emotional journey, doing whatever it takes to save your brother from a supernatural curse. Overcome foes and challenges your own way with a variety of weapons, tools and unearthly powers.
Discover the cost of saving those you love in a desperate struggle for survival within a violent world twisted by otherworldly forces.
Another just released game I was involved with is the horror thriller by Harvester Games - Burnhouse Lane in which I play Miss Mary Willis, aka Bloody Mary.
Burnhouse Lane tells a story of Angie Weather, a one foot in the grave agency nurse attempting to complete five impossible tasks in order to win her life back. Solve puzzles, make friends and enemies, run, hide and fight in this dark adventure that'll take you on a trip to another world and back... and meet the terrifying character that is Bloody Mary.
I also recorded as the Narrator of Aces and Adventurers due for release next month.
Aces and Adventurers is a roguelite deck builder with poker-powered combat. Save the Life Tree from the evil that gnaws at her roots.
A poker-powered deckbuilding adventure
Three tables stand in a circle of stones in the misty heart of the old woods, forming a portal to a soaring world drawn from the pages of ancient Norse and Middle Eastern mythology. There, you will embark on a journey to save Cardrasil, the Life Tree, from the evil that gnaws at her roots. Each card of the enchanted deck she entrusts to you are leaves plucked from her very branches. Use them to evoke your abilities and unleash devastating, poker-powered attacks. Grow your own power, prune your own deck, but make haste! The seasons are changing; warmth won’t be free for long.
Gameplay
A unique combination of traditional playing cards and special ability cards sits at the heart of Aces & Adventures. You’ll craft a deck and choose how to use your resources – do you aim to defeat your opponents through attacks and spells, or play cards in order to potentially draw devastating high-value poker hands and obliterate your foes in a mighty blow? More about that when the game is out.
I continued recording the ongoing Solitaire game that I play the ever so British Butler in and delight in portraying her character.
Now that Olive is back from her trip, Ava will do anything to keep her in high spirits. But, how can Olive feel relaxed and full of positive energy when her room hasn't seen any love for years? Of course, Ava and her friends will remedy that!
Meanwhile, the gang continues their search and uncovers a significant clue in the Marvin mystery!
I started the new year off with a delightful new game recording, which is currently under NDA so can't say anything about that.
So looking forward to what else the new year brings.

HOW DO I BOOK YOU AS MY VOICEOVER?
Contact me here then follow these steps.
That is actually a difficult question to answer – voice over costs vary enormously depending on the size and use of the project, so a simple voicemail message may be £50. Corporate work tends to start around £270 while a big television commercial can run into several thousands. It depends on what the project is and where it is going to be heard/seen. I follow Equity rates and also the industry standard Gravy for the Brain Rate Card and the GVAA rate guide when required. I like to think I am fair and competitive with my pricing. I operate a basic studio fee (or BSF) which is my minimum charge for any session or job, this can also be negotiated. Drop me an email at margaret@margaretashley.com with all the details of your project and I will be very happy to quote for you. I can also record you a bespoke free sample recording of your script if required.
Just contact me HERE with your requirements and I will get an estimate to you asap. Payment is also simple, by direct bank transfer.
I record in high quality wav, but can provide files in practically any format you need –quality mp3, WAV, AIFF. Just ask!
