Bio

 

Hi! I'm The VO Opossum (aka Kelsey Painter, Voice Actor). Why the VO Opossum? Well, just like opossums; I'm a little out in left field, a little strange and kooky, but I'm great for the environment (aka your project) and when I get scared I just play dead! hmmm…Okay forget about that last part; the real tea is that I bring sparkle and grit to every character I voice, regardless of size, shape, or galactic origin.

My versatility and flexibility has made me a winning choice for clients across industries, and my ability to take direction and adapt to different styles has earned high praise from producers and directors alike.

With barrels of delighted clients that return time and time again for my swift, agile deliveries; I'm primed and pumped to tackle any script you can throw at me. Drawing on my background in professional theatre, I work hard to find the nuance and depth in every script I come across.

So let's take a trip out into left field together and hit it out of the park!

I record in a professional studio in my home, meaning I’ve only got a 30-second commute between me and your script!

When not in the recording booth I enjoy gaming, legos, and spoiling my cat, zelda.
