My Voice Experience

Years of experience: More than 25 years

Doug Paul is regarded in the industry as a top-level voice-over talent and one of those national guys that voiced "promos before promos were cool." His voice-overs can be heard coast-to-coast on TV, radio, satellite and even in movie theaters. For over 25 years, Doug Paul's client list continues to be a whos who of voice work, including Ford, Walt Disney, Coke, Turner, Tribune Broadcasting, ABC Sports, Cream of Wheat, Calvin Klein, American Express, Wal-Mart, The Paralymics, Miramax Films, HBO, Showtime, and Discovery Channel to name a few. After working in all three majors, being based in New York City and Atlanta, Doug Paul now lives in a vineyard in the North Georgia Mountains with his wife Sharon and their daughter. He has a great sounding studio- available 24/7 -that serves as a hub for his daily ISDN and MP3 voice business. When he is not doing voice-over, Doug Paul enjoys the wine industry, tending grapes and making wine with his family. He says "there is nothing quite like slapping on some bib overalls and riding a John Deer 5300 farm tractor through a beautiful Georgia vineyard about knee deep in June." A pioneer in his field, Doug Paul also addresses industry and educational groups across the country about his experiences and thoughts on voice-over and producing award-winning creative as well as trends in the broadcast and wine industry.

My Training

No degrees or classes. However, I've taught 'em and have panel experience and participation in industry seminars for Ad Clubs, BPME and Promax. I started out working in television and radio...moved to voice-over, radio production and creative services...expanded to video and web. I have "on the job training" of doing everything from being the live announcer for the ParaOlympics Opening Ceremonies in front of thousands of people at the Ted to being heard by millions of people everyday around the country as the image voice of super stations and television networks.

So far as music...I voiced with the road band members of Pink Floyd in New York City once and was the program announcer for the Soul Train Music Awards for about 7 years. Cool.

My Studio Equipment

Nuemann U87 and U89 mics, Pro Tools, Fairlight MFX...whatever you need.
