Frank Piazza and Ellie Devers are a dynamic duo! Together they helped me launch my voice-over career.
They are terrific coaches, at the top of their games and a pleasure to work with. I would recommend them
to anyone—novice or expert—who is looking to create a demo or just improve their skills.

Working with Frank and Ellie was a delight. They took a personal interest in my material, helped me find a truer vocal
tone and dramatic range, and they did it all with such ease. When I heard the CD played back, I was amazed at the seamlessness of Frank’s editing and was so glad that Ellie had taken such care to coach me through the poignant
and comic elements of my script. I highly recommend this team!

When I came to Ellie and Frank, I already had a voice-over demo that I thought needed improvement. They helped
me choose the best copy so that it highlighted my strengths and then coached me to develop the delivery to sell it
in the studio. The result was a demo that’s gotten a lot more attention than what I was using before and one which
I am proud to offer potential clients.

I’ve known Ellie Devers for over twelve years. She is one of my favorite clients. I know her as an actress,
voice-over talent, and an extraordinary communicator. She brings her intelligence, humor, and insight to
everything she does. I recommend her highly.

Ellie Devers is able to teach people to go beyond what they believe they can do. She is warm,
professional and has helped me enormously. She is able to see and bring out the very best in people.

I consider Frank a true professional who cares not only about the people he works with, he cares about making
sure each recording is the best it can be. APVoices has helped me to become a confident voice-over artist.

Ellie Devers is one the most brilliant artists I have ever met in New York. Her crisp warm voice is a treasure and one that ought to be studied for its clarity and ability to communicate any emotion she desires. Her teaching is that rare combination of professional knowledge and genuine support of the student’s journey.

Ellie Devers is a light and a delight to be with. If she were teaching a class in macaroni jewelry, I’d take it.
Her skill as an actress and a writer combined with great humor and compassion make her a master teacher.
