briefly wondering why some people so different when they are narrating voice only to what thye sound like when presenting - two this applies too are cherry healey and sarah milican the latter seems easier to understand as well, know it could be down to direction and what the powers at be tell them and equipment but is therer another reason - brief answer or long discussion don't mind just interested as it seems t ohappen a lot that's all
I would guess it's the difference between performing to an audience and performing to a microphone. One often has a lot more energy to it. I guess there's an aspect of "telephone voice" in doing a voiceover too.
Alright... seems that you've had a little too much to drink. I suggest you have a good night's sleep and look at your post again tomorrow morning. Then you might wanna give us some clearance on what you are talking about. Thanks.

Yes - if you're presenting to an audience, you'll often be using a projected, strong voice, and may have to talk over noise. In a soundproofed room, some people automatically speak quieter, so for some people the difference in their voice will be different.
Not only that, but some people speak a lot differently if they're reading. They may be concentrating on where to place emphasis, or maybe their voice becomes more or less monotone, or maybe the preparedness aspect changes their voice.
One example where this seems not to apply is to Tony Hirst, famous narrator of the international edition of How It's Made, and ex-Hollyoaks actor; he sounds the same whenever he speaks.
The microphones used make a difference too, as well as the acoustics of a studio as opposed to a voiceover booth. Voiceover booths tend to use mics positioned very close to the performer, so you'll get a fuller, richer sound and consequetntly the performer won't need to project, they can just talk,
Natural ambience and, as others have posted, the natural will to perform to an audience rather than read a script, will also make a difference.
And the processing. You can get away with putting a lot more compression on a voice recorded in a booth than you can on voices recorded via booms or lapels.

Often VO's are done against pictures which they may not be used to so require a bit of direction by the shows director/producer. This can affect the speaker's style. We've used VO artists but we did not want their TV persona.
