Jake Pool

About me

I'm a North American voiceover artist and video content creator with a warm, conversational delivery and a full production background — most recently as the on-camera presenter and voice behind Proton's entire YouTube tutorial library.

Over the past two years I shipped 20+ videos for Proton covering VPN, Mail, Pass, Drive, Wallet, and Authenticator — handling every stage myself: script, on-camera presenting, screen capture, voiceover, editing, captions, and YouTube publishing. That end-to-end experience means I understand how every piece affects the finished product, which makes me a different kind of collaborator than a pure VO artist or a pure editor.

My voiceover clients describe my sound as warm, trustworthy, and conversational — a natural fit for YouTube tutorials, eLearning, explainer videos, and tech content that needs to feel human without sounding casual. I record on a Lewitt LCT 440 Pure in a professionally treated home studio, delivering clean, broadcast-quality audio with fast turnaround.

I made the leap to freelance content creation in 2015 after a decade in the restaurant industry, and I've been building on it ever since. I run a travel blog called Penguin Trampoline with my wife, which keeps my writing sharp and my SEO instincts sharper.

What I do: voiceover for YouTube, eLearning, explainer, and corporate narration; YouTube scriptwriting (scripted to be heard, not read); on-camera presenting for tutorials and product walkthroughs; and full video production from script to publish.

Always submitted everything well before the deadline to allow time for revisions, edits, etc. Very organized, thorough, and easy to work with... flexible in his approach and hilariously blunt about what he can and cannot do (gave us a good laugh and saved us quite a bit of time)."
