YOU'RE THE VOICE
Ely Jackson
Ely Jackson is a dynamic Greek‑Australian Film & TV actor, Voice‑Over artist, and dialect coach based in Vancouver, BC. With over 15 years of professional experience across film, animation, commercials, video games, narration, and post‑production sound, Ely brings a truly multidimensional skill set to every aspect of voice‑over and dialect training.
Self-taught in accent work, Ely has mastered a broad accent repertoire—including Scottish, Irish, British RP, Standard American, Southern American, Australian, New Zealand and Canadian-to-American—landing roles such as the formidable Scottish elven warrior Tiandrin in Netflix’s The Dragon Prince, plus multiple roles in Monster Loving Maniacs (Apple TV), Percy Jackson & The Olympians, Altered Carbon, and the horror feature The Stickman’s Hollow. Her commercial voice‑over credits span campaigns like Afterpay Australia, Coolsculpting Canada, and GLADE Holidays. Ely’s scene‑ready versatility also extends to physical performance—sword fighting, archery, dance, horseback archery, and creature work for horror and sci‑fi roles.
Her work on screen has earned her industry recognition, including a LEO Award nomination for Best Female Supporting Performance in a Feature Film, underscoring her range, presence, and dedication to craft.
Driven by a lifelong fascination with vocal mechanics, Ely developed her own teaching technique based on deep explorations into the physiology of the vocal cords, phonetics, and the dynamics of voice. Her approach is gentle yet analytical, combining mimicry, ear training, placement, script dissection, and character breakdown to equip students to excel in dialects, animation, commercials, video games, narration, and dubbing.
In her coaching sessions, Ely adapts to each student’s starting point and goals, guiding them through dialect mastery and voice‑over craft—from script interpretation, vocal tone and pacing, to pitch, emotion, “hard vs. soft sell,” voice manipulation, and even the business side: securing an agent, navigating audition booths, and studio etiquette post‑booking . Her instructional work has earned her a 5‑star Google rating and nearly five years of teaching in academic settings, helping actors refine both their performance and technical vocal skills.
Ely holds a Bachelor of Communications & Arts with a focus on Scriptwriting for Film & TV, and is also a published author (Snake of the Nile, 2020), visual artist, baker, and craftswoman.
