Warm. Authoritative.

Real.

Thor McGinnis · Chicago Voice Actor

Real talk.

Thor McGinnis brings a touch of genuine empathy to every role. With a wide range both vocally (A1–A4!) and tonally, he can shift easily from intense, hard-edged grit to conversational warmth. Quirky characters, imposing announcers, even accurate accents — and all of it with clarity, conviction, and authentic sincerity.

Your story deserves to be told. Let Thor lend his voice to the task.

Wait, really?

Yes, my name genuinely is Thor. Thanks, Mom and Dad!

I’m a graduate of Northwestern University with a B.A. in Radio/Television/Film. In school, I was an anchor and reporter for WNUR News, as well as a an occasional stage and film actor. I also have almost a decade of experience as a marketing copywriter and creative director, which has given me a well-honed instinct for the ways copy can and should be read.

But beyond knowing how to talk, I’m a good listener. That helps with things like accents and means I take direction well. It also means I seek to truly understand the story we’re telling and, ultimately, deliver a collaborative and enjoyable working experience alongside great audio.

Sound like a fit? Let’s make something awesome.
