My Voice Experience

On many occasions, I have replaced actor’s voices as a joke and played it back for them. They’re astonished to find out it was me who reproduced their voice.

Whenever we needed something to fill a dead spot during a television promo or project at Paramount Pictures, I would write and record it. If it were off camera, we would use it.

My ADR skills are target-on, 1-takers. Some of our shows required a sound that just didn't exist in our library. We needed it right then and there (usually a gun shot with some type of impact or a whoosh or even a drone) and so I would just do it with my voice and the Producer or Director would look at me strangely and then ask "Did you just do that with your voice?" I would do it again (expanded version usually) and the next thing I know is I'm in the booth again.

I love this art...I am probably one of the most skilled, undiscovered talents in existence today. All I need is an audition

My Training

I started our as a musician. I can play Percussion (all styles), Bass, and Guitar. I have always loved music so it was natural for me to end up in sound during some part of my career. I have worked in the industry for 34 years. I have been in marketing promotions for 25 years and I write and produce promos and frequently narrate them. I have experience with all media and recording systems and I know computer platforms very well.

Additional Skills

I have extremely good Foley skills and so I can create sounds that are, in part, voice and part sound effects (like the guy in Police Academy). My resume spans 34 years of professional work and contribution to the motion picture and television industry.

My sense of humor is not here in written form but, I assure you, I am the consummate comedian.
