Dan Sharfin

Voice Description

For serious narrations, I can be smooth and calming. For more upbeat reads, I can be casual or excitable, depending on what is called for. I have done a variety of commercials, including serious reads on the current economy, and screamers for "craaazy" car sales.

I have taken acting classes, and take direction extremely well.

I have also done vocals for music videos and jingles for businesses.

My Voice Experience

I am currently the anchor for interstitial programming for HBO Caribbean. I voice their HBO Plus programming, digital life, music plus, and several other programs.

I have been doing voice-over work for Zimmerman advertising in Ft. Lauderdale since 2006. I have been the voice of Ira Motor group, a group of 26 automotive dealerships in the North East since that time.

I have done various work for other automotive dealerships as well; ranging from the "scream your guts out" variety spots to heartfelt messages.

I have also done jingles for various projects, including most recently a parody of "The Heat is On" for a Ford 20 group meeting, which they made into a music video.

My Training

I have a Bachelor's Degree in Marketing from the Red McComb school of Business at the University of Texas in Austin. I have worked in advertising since 2003.

I have been mentored by Mike Kowal, who runs the voice talent portion of Studio Z, Zimmerman Advertising's studio. He is the voice of Papa John's nationally, as well as doing work across the board on many other projects.

My Studio Equipment

I have a Telos Zephyr with an ISDN connection. I also have a PreSonus strip with an equalizer, power source and a compressor.

Additionally, I have MBox 2 Pro, a microphone, and Pro Tools, all hooked up through SourceConnect.

Additional Skills

I can also copy-write for any type of project.

I am currently working as a copywriter for a major advertising company.


I have excellent writing skills, and have been working directly with clients and a leading creative department for several years. Try me.
