About Ray
Hi this is Coach Ray.
I am the owner of Nakamoto Productions, an award winning audio facility since 1984.
I am Sacramento's leading voice-over coach and an award winning voice-over Demo Producer.
I hold monthly VO workshops and have national VO instructors at affordable local prices.
This is Coach Ray.
I am now 70 years old...
But I will never retire. I wake up each morning with
a PASSION! The Passion is to teach voice-overs and to see my students succeed!
If you are a student, re-tired or still working...
Voice-Over is a part or full time career you can train at home right now!
All VO auditions are now done from home!
Take my Evaluation/Consultation and I can assess your chances of succeeding in voice-over!
I learned all about broadcast commercial production as an audio producer and voice over artis for over 50 years!
I've produced all the Tower Records radio spots, Harrah's,
the Roseville Auto Mall, and Auto Malls across the country,
Audio Books like Chicken Soup for the Women's Soul and recorde books for Random House.
I've was the production head at Bill Rase Productions in Sacramento for 17 years. I then started my own studio,
Nakamoto Productions in 1984. We became Sacramento's leading audio production studio winning over 200 national,
regional and local awards for audio excellence!
I'm an award winning VO Demo producer.
I've been one of the top 3 VO talents in Sacramento for over 30 years.
I've transitioned to voice-over coaching back in 2008.
Training students and witnessing their success is my Passion!

Ray Nakamoto is not only an excellent teacher but he is unscrupulously honest as well. He'll tell it "like it is" and that's what people wanting to learn "voice over" need to hear.
He also endorses my method of teaching which is not only flattering, but the only real way to learn I truly believe. Just precisely what is it "I truly believe"? I'll let Ray tell it!
Sincerely, Don Morrow.....(WHO the hell is Don Morrow?... I'll let Ray tell that too).View more recommendations
