Heleen Groenendyk

Adult
Has Own Studio

My name is Heleen Groenendyk.

I am a professional Voice-over with a clear, warm and fresh voice. After more than twenty years of experience in the media industry, I dare to say that I know which product needs what in terms of tone of voice.

How come

As a child, I would record my own stories on cassette tapes (!) and sing all day long. And that passion for the voice and storytelling has always remained.

Creative producer
After my studies I started working as a creative producer in the media industry. One of my first jobs in the profession was providing the voice direction for the stop-motion series Miffy and her friends. Super fun and magical!! I was sold:)

 

Most fun In the productions I worked on, I actually got behind the microphone myself more and more often.. And that's how I got into the profession. Because of all the fun things I've had the pleasure of doing so far, I think this is the most fun!

 

Flight hours and development

In addition to the necessary flying hours spent in practice (which ultimately teaches you the most!), I personally find a lot of overlap between the disciplines of using your voice as a voice-over/voice actor and singing. Now it is certainly not the case that every voice-over likes to sing. But I do!. For both practises I work with the Estill Voice Training system.

 

One of my satisfied clients recommendations:

As a voice-over Heleen easily follows directions, has a clear and pleasant voice and enriches a text with the right tone-of-voice and the right amount of emphasis on the right spots.”
