Mike Doerner Productions
Mike Doerner is a professional voiceover artist. He is the voice you’ve been looking for and the actor to breathe life into your written words. He is an American male baritone “Guy Next Door” voice actor, presenter, vocal talent, narrator, voice performer, and announcer. Mike takes direction well and provides world-class customer service. After all, he’s been practicing his voice-over skills since he was four years old…
At that young and formative age, his audiophile father sat him in front of a microphone attached to a TEAC reel-to-reel tape recorder. This moment was the Genesis spark for Mike’s lifelong passion for recording, broadcasting, and acting. “Let There be an Audience! And it was So.” With tape rolling, he kept his family entertained with his amusing answers to their zany questions.
Dedicated, Quality, Reliable Voice Overs
Mike has honed and mastered his voice and acting skills over the years; he is dedicated to constant improvement and delivers high-quality, reliable, and entertaining voiceover recordings. He spent his early years imitating what he heard on radio and TV—His days and nights were dedicated to entertaining friends and family with his—often comedic—take on television shows. At twelve, he was lucky enough to get a Panasonic cassette tape recorder and a stack of blank tapes for Christmas—taking his voiceover foundation up a notch.
Starting with a parody of Dickens’ “A Christmas Carol”, he voiced a long line of Dr. Demento-style spoofs and skits. Today he brings this distinctive, lifelong experience to his voice over work, adding a unique flare, flavor, and zest to your project. He’s upgraded from the tape recorder and blank tapes to a fully equipped home studio. Here he provides professional services that would have made twelve-year-old Mike proud.

A Talented Artist Who Focuses on Your Goals
Mike responds quickly, communicates well, and is easy to work with. Building on his earlier desire for an audience, Mike took to the stage in high school, acting in dramas, comedies, and musicals. He even built the sets! It was here where he sharpened the more technical aspects of acting, such as taking direction, enunciating properly, and connecting with an audience.
While acting in community theatre the summer after junior year, a fellow cast member (a local radio announcer) took note of Mike’s incredible voice and delivery, inviting him to record commercials, PSAs, and promos. In order to be on the air, he was issued an FCC Restricted Radiotelephone Operator’s Permit. Mike had begun his journey into the magical world of voice over. A world where quite literally—he gets to breathe life into words.

Narration That Exceeds Your Expectations
Mike goes above and beyond to exceed your expectations; he delivers exactly what you ask for. He’s been expanding his skillset since Kindergarten. Starting his career early, he’s exceptionally comfortable behind the microphone. Transferring from The Citadel to Western Carolina University, Mike’s life took an even more “dramatic” turn one day in a speech class, when he happened to see a textbook for radio and television on a fellow student’s desk.
He discovered that there wasn’t just a class for radio and television but a whole Major! That moment was an epiphany for Mike, as if being able to see for the first time. He immediately changed majors from history, to Radio and Television Broadcasting. He also joined the college radio station staff, and spent all his free time in the station’s recording studio. Mike has the all around skillset to deliver high-quality, unique, and professional voice over recordings.

He’s had jobs in different fields, from real estate to retail sales, from cabinet making to the mortgage industry, exposing him to a broader range of personalities, people, dialects and accents. He has had rich life experiences that have added to the deep well from which he draws for his character inspiration.
