Pete Nottage<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Pete Nottage is a voice over, presenter and writer \u2013 and one of the UK\u2019s foremost experts in telling you that the <\/strong>news is next.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Over the last twenty years, he has become one of the most recognised voices in the country. He has written, voiced, recorded and broadcast thousands of hours of content across TV, radio and online for clients as varied as Peugeot, QVC, Manchester United and Noel Gallagher. He was one of the launch voices for the television channels More4 and 4Seven, introduced the television coverage of the London 2012 Paralympics and spent a decade as the station voice for BBC Radio 6Music.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

His work as a Channel 4 announcer has consistently made headlines. He allowed his five-year-old to gatecrash an announcement<\/a>, spent several months deliberately mispronouncing The Simpsons<\/a> and most recently gained national plaudits for saying the phrase \u201c\u2026and Matt Hancock\u201d<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

His voiceover work stretches across multiple genres. From the comfort of his studio<\/a>, he has voiced hundreds of commercials, explainer videos and promotional trailers, narrated enough brand case studies to satisfy anyone\u2019s KPI and has learned how to pronounce more obscure medical words for eLearning modules than he cares to remember. He\u2019s even been the voice of the Earth at the Science Museum<\/a>. True story. He was opened by Prince Charles \u2013 and yes, we think that line sounds a bit rude too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An experienced presenter, Pete has hosted multiple projects that have helped pay his mortgage. He drove across the world presenting content for Smart car<\/a>, launched online promotional campaigns for Sony Ericsson<\/a> and was part of the opening presenter lineup for StaffPad Radio<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He also creates online content. His Malcolm Tucker\/Doctor Who mash-up video<\/a> was featured on UK TV and in worldwide press, resulting in what all the experts agree was a \u2018metric shit-tonne\u2019 of views. His campaign against the low-balling of fees on the platform Fiverr<\/a> was shared between members of the worldwide voiceover community \u2013 and his short-form web series The Curious Man\u2019s Guide<\/a> received very nice reviews although that was admittedly quite a while ago and we can\u2019t find links to any of them any more so you\u2019ll just have to trust us on that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He has spoken about his work at the acclaimed One Voice Conference, has appeared on industry podcasts such as the Voiceover Social<\/a>, Gravy For The Brain<\/a> and The Media Podcast<\/a> \u2013 and his work has helped win many BAFTA Craft and Sony Radio awards. Would it be a stretch to say that makes him an award-winner in his own right? Probably. Are we going to say it anyway? Of course we are.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
