I think that a good professional is not one who knows what he wants in advance. I think a good professional is someone who looks for what he wants. For this reason, all my work, as a voice actor and as a director, starts from listening. Listening to myself and to others. Hi, I’m Andrea. Welcome to my website.

Communicating with both voice and images
My job is to give voice and interpretation to brands and their products. Through images and my voice, I create audio and video content that can convey intense, funny or engaging messages. Here you can find some of the services I offer as a voice actor and director.
Giving voice to services and products:
voice acting
As a voice actor, my task is to give voice and interpretation to brands and their products, through a variety of channels: voice-over, advertising, audiobooks, e-learning, live events.
Communicating through videos:
directing
I work as a director for companies through advertising agencies’ creativity that need to communicate their products through storytelling. I am contacted primarily for my storytelling skills and for the management and choice of actors in acting. As a director, I am responsible for following the casting, direction, pre-production and post-production phases of commercials, branded content, documentaries, and other video content.
Voice actor and director.
It’s all about listening.
Both as a director and as a vocal actor, I am involved and contacted mainly to work on acting and interpretation, due to my natural interest in dealing with feelings and emotions in comedic or dramatic situations.
My professional identity is centered around listening.
For me, listening means making myself available and in contact with the narration and communication that is required of me and, through listening, identifying and developing tones and styles that I carry over into my work as a director and vocal actor.
Consequently, in all my work, both as a director and as a vocal actor, the human aspect – comic, dramatic, cheerful, introspective – is at the center of my discourse and my professional proposal.

Andrea Cecchi:
voice actor and director
My career began in 1984 when I attended an internship in Filmmaking at New York University, after spending my adolescence between Italy and California, and then continued in Italy where I combined my work with direction with interpretation, graduating in dubbing at the Centro Teatro Attivo of Milan.
I started as an editor and then worked on production as a producer at BRW&Partners, Mercurio and Leo Burnett for many years to follow, where I built the foundations and knowledge of the audiovisual market.
In these realities I had the opportunity to collaborate on national and international productions, which gave me the opportunity to work with some of the most creative and renowned talents in the sector such as, among others, Tony Scott, Tarsem, Antoine Fuqua, Bob Giraldi, John Malkovich.
At the same time, I started shooting small low-budget commercials and several video clips until 1994, where I made my debut as a director, shooting a commercial for Procter&Gamble with which I had the opportunity and the privilege of winning the ANIPA award that year as best emerging director in Italy and sign an exclusive with BRW & Partners.
As a debut voice actor with early commercials, such as Marlboro Country Travels and Nintendo.
In my career as a director I had the opportunity to be selected and win numerous national and international awards
