A Swansea Valley voice actor has been nominated for three awards.
Phil Rowe is up for Best Male Performance in Animation, Best Male Performance in TV/Web Commercials, and Male Voiceover Artist of the Year at the One Voice Awards 2025.
It comes after he won the One Voice Award for Best Male Performance in TV/Web Commercials in 2024.
His voice has since been featured in international campaigns, video games, and animated series.
He also lent his voice to the Welsh-language video game 'Tales from the Mabinogion,' which was recognised by the BBC for its cultural significance.
Mr Rowe said: "Winning last year's award was a turning point.
"It affirmed my decision to pursue voiceover work full-time and inspired me to explore diverse projects that resonate with audiences worldwide."
Mr Rowe has pulmonary sarcoidosis, which affects breath control.
He has developed techniques to manage his condition through training with voice coach Nicola Redman.
He operates from his studio in Ystalyfera.
The One Voice Awards ceremony will take place on Saturday, May 17, 2025, at the DoubleTree by Hilton, Docklands, London.
