About Yellow Lamb

Yellow Lamb is the creative, radio and audio production company run by award winning writer, producer and voice-over… Sean Bell.


Since the late 1980’s Sean has created thousands of successful, effective and ear-catching radio campaigns for clients across the UK and around the world. Having “cut his teeth” producing for many of the original and heritage ILR stations (then also producing BBC Radio drama & documentaries), over the last few years he has refocused his business, and Yellow Lamb now also increasingly meets the requirements of the emerging Community Radio sector. However, his creative services are still regularly used directly by end-user clients, advertising agencies, local authorities and the public sector.


Judging by the feedback, he seems to be doing something right ?

Richard Whiley, Director, TTMA

“Yellow Lamb has handled all the radio campaign production for The Traditional Media Agency for a number of years and we would happily recommend Sean’s ability to anyone.

He works hard, constantly thinks of script improvements, quickly sorts Radio Centre clearance issues for us and, is without doubt, a major asset in the service we offer our clients. The service provided is exemplary – talk to him and let him show you how good he is – you will not be disappointed."

Kriss Herbert, Gaydio

“Yellow have been a lifeline to Gaydio when our in house team just doesn’t have the capacity to cope. Sean is brilliant to work with, takes all feedback on board and understood the brand from day one. He’ll turn stuff around amazingly quick to clients delight and you get a sexy mug too"

"I've been using Yellow Lamb for my 'com prod' since 2020. Sean takes a brief and quickly creates a high-quality draft and demo for the client to review - this really enthuses them and helps me to close the sale. He'll also ensure we have Radio Centre approval if required, and liaise with the client all the way through to final sign off. His service is prompt and creative. Highly recommend."

Yellow Lamb have written & produced for Steel FM numerous times. Sean always delivers professional , creative and quality campaigns quickly. It has always been an easy experience working with him and using his services. Highly recommended!

Jerry Bradford – Mid Sussex Radio

Our first Yellow Lamb experience was when Sean sent us a sales promo' as the country went into lock down. His professionalism and quality was noted, so we introduced him to a client when the first opportunity occurred. He took over and handled everything and our client was delighted with the results. So were we - it helps to makes our station sound vibrant and professional. We continue to enjoy that same service time after time.

Mike Hammond

It’s not a case of “can we afford to use Yellow Lamb” ? As they assist so much with the whole sales process AND provide quality commercials, , it’s really a case of “we can’t afford to NOT use Yellow Lamb”

Mark Heselwood, Tech Support Manager, Conquest Hospital Radio

“Yellow Lamb first sent us a free sales promo’ which was great. And it worked and brought in clients, who we passed onto Sean. He worked with them directly and quickly created excellent commercials. This also makes our station sound more professional too”

Paul Tasker.

Sean’s production and ear for sound is incredible. Very creative with both his script writing and with his voiceover services. Fast turnaround and a professional service.

Fran Asaipillai - Kennet Radio

"Sean has taken the headache out of my role of business development manager at Kennet Radio. As ever in sales, it’s a numbers game, and I need to spend my time speaking to potential clients. Sean has freed me up to focus on finding new clients and looking after our regular accounts. Now I am just worried about him going on holiday!"

Christopher Remer, Business Development Manager, Future Radio

"We can't recommend Yellow Lamb highly enough. Professional, fast, creative and always a pleasure to deal with. Our clients love the adverts Yellow Lamb produces, and we've given Sean some challenges in our time!"

Our Work



Kind of (roughly) based on a scene from an episode of Hancock’s Half Hour, unsolicited, Sean wrote and produced a stand alone sales promo’ featuring the Roger & Hilary characters, tagged each one personally with sales contact details, then sent out to around 50 Community Radio stations across the country. They were greatly received, and stations then started asking when they would receive the next episode. Long story short – they’ve kind of taken on a life of their own. “Huge fun to write, a pleasure to produce, and my clients LOVE them”




The process

“Sean takes the hassle out of your commercial production process ! Ideally he’ll liaise directly with the client, to “fact find” the exact information required to carefully craft a (legal and RACC compliant) script that works. Rather than just sending the script back for approval, (in most cases) he’ll also bring it to life with his own voice and all the music and sound effects required – after all, it is “sound” that we’re selling. The ”demo” commercial is proving to be very effective in enthusing the client as they can hear how they will sound on-air, and it really helps to close the sale. Once the final script is approved – perhaps with a few amendments – he’ll then replace his voice and re-lay the correct voice(s) to produce the broadcast master. Check out an example here:



Sean Bell – Voice-Over

Sean’s voice has been heard on radio and TV campaigns, in-store commercials, training programmes and on telephone messaging around the world, all from his home studio where this short (and humorous ?) video showreel was filmed a few years ago.

Freebies

Sean’s a BIG supporter of the emerging Community Radio sector, and though he has to make a living out of “paid for” production, he does offer free services too. Many stations are running variations of these sales promo’s, 27 stations broadcast their own versions of this Corona Virus promo and a whopping 49 stations received their dedicated “wake up after lock down” promo’s – ALL totally free of charge. If you’d like a sales promo’ producing – let’s talk ? Additionally, if you’d like a short “sound of the station” montage creating with a mix of presenter chatter, features, imaging and commercials, this can be delivered with his compliments.
