Jim Pilot brought my character (the vice president of outer space) to life in a way that transcendence the words on the page he was reading from. He was fast and delivered exactly what was ask for and more then what was expected from a fairly long script.

Meet jim
Jim Pilot doesn’t do boring. He’s a motocross racer, ex-military, with a voice that hits harder than your morning espresso.
He kicked things off as a raw, soul-soaked singer-songwriter, carving out a name with powerhouse vocals and fearless storytelling. Then came radio—major markets, major audiences, and one hell of a mic presence. From there, Jim took his adrenaline-fueled energy to the world of sports announcing, pumping up stadiums with high-octane commentary.
Now, in the voiceover world, Jim brings grit, swagger, and precision to every script. Commercials. Games. Docs. You name it. When Jim speaks, people listen—and they don’t forget.
RESUME
VO RATES
I typically book within standard US industry rates.
That said, I custom quote each job. I often give volume discounts (bulk rates) when appropriate and can, in some cases, offer a subscription-style arrangement. The more I know about the job (usage, duration, etc.), the more accurate the quote I can give you.
