Not just a versatile voice
She’s been the voice of a seeing-eye dog, a Zombie mom and the cultured connoisseur of a luxury resort. A friendly instructor on your health and financial benefits, as well as an authoritative voice of scientific research.
How many people can say they are comfortable talking about both complex medical topics and child-distracted grocery shopping? With a warm, energetic and authentic tone of voice that connects with people’s hearts? And the technical savvy to deliver it in the appropriate format for every client?
For award-winning corporate, commercial, or e-learning voiceovers, that’s Jen Antkowiak of Soundshine Productions.
A voice actor for both short- and long-form narration, Jen has used her voice to move audiences since college. She built her own custom home studio in 2013 and in 2018, founded her company, Soundshine Productions, LLC, a WBENC-Certified WBE.

World-class work
It’s clear Jen truly cares about her craft,” said one producer. “I had chills as I listened to her read my words,” said an audiobook author. “This is the smoothest voiceover session I’ve ever been in,” said a creative director.
Praised for her attention to detail, reliability, and blazing-fast turnarounds, Jen offers voice services for:
- Radio and TV commercials
- Corporate video narration
- eLearning
- Explainer video narration
- Medical narration
- Interactive Voice Response (IVR)
- On hold marketing
- Animation
- Automotive
- Museum Tours
- Promos and Trailers
- …and more
She is also a singer who loves the Great American Songbook repertoire and Italian arias alike (you can catch the Jennifer Antkowiak CD “Here to Stay” on Spotify or Pandora), a local theater actor, and an entertaining master of ceremonies.
Versatile is just the beginning of describing Jen’s voiceover work.
She easily follows specific client directions, often needing only one or two takes to deliver what they’re asking for.
And if you need additional voices for your project, she will recommend someone from her extensive roster of talent. After all, she has been in the business for more than two decades!
She packages her work with the appropriate technology for her clients’ needs. She works from her broadcast-quality home studio outside of Boston, Massachusetts with state-of-the-art recording equipment – all with multiple connectivity options such as Source Connect, ipDTL, Zoom, Skype, Google Hangouts, Phone, etc.
“Always wonderful working with Jen. She not only delivered the files in a matter of hours, she also absolutely nailed it from the get-go,” said a project owner.
She loves to voice tricky medical and technical narration, having fun with such tongue-twisters as splenomegaly, basosquamous cell carcinomas or dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans.
Some fun facts about Jen: She has lived on a dairy farm, in the suburbs, and in the big city, and understands the joys and challenges of each environment. She loves hiking, kayaking and photography and is making progress on her goal to hike all of New Hampshire’s 48 peaks over 4,000 feet…but she’s also been known to get lost in the woods.
Her infectious energy and zest for life shine through – so much that she aptly named her business Soundshine Productions.
