Voice Description

I think you've all heard the "movie trailer announcer". My normal speaking voice is extremely similar to his. (I'll bet, if I took his place for one movie trailer, no one would notice the difference.) I can speak in a lower than normal voice all the way to a falseto high voice like Marilyn Monroe or a child. I can do a medium base very sexy female voice, along with a serious or comical western voice. I also do the "hard sell" fast talking salesman type. (used car lot), in most any voice of your choosing. My other character voices are too numerous to mention. If you are having trouble finding a voice, I will work with you to invent, or create a voice you are happy with. By the way, did I mention I can sing Too??

My Voice Experience

Well, I believe in being honest. It's the only way I live. NO, I have not had years, and years of experience. I have dabbled in voices some years back, and now I'm getting back into it. (Career change) I have done many local commercials for our towns businesses, and people seem to be very pleased. I am a perfectionist..(a curse) and because of that, I will not submit a project to you until it is perfect. Or I will work with it and you until YOU are happy with it. I can't offer much more than that.

My Training

I started my voice interest late in high school.
Then I went on to take more english, voice, and t.v. broadcasting courses in college.
A couple of years after college, I attended the Bill Wade School of Radio Broadcasting in San Francisco, and graduated with my third class radio license. (DJ). So besides my formal training, as kind of a personal little quirk, I have spent years literally trying to copy any voice I've ever heard on t.v. or radio. From Jackie Gleason and "Norton", all the way up to our good old President.

Additional Skills

I not only like to copy or duplicate movie or cartoon characters, but of course, this leads to spin-offs, or "invented" character voices. I really enjoy being given a detailed description of what you are after and then invent, or "give birth" to a brand new character made just for you............"one of a kind ".
I also love comic stuff. I like to write it and do it. I LOVE to make people laugh. Whether it is for "on hold" phone messages, voice overs, or a commercial you HAVE to come across funny and GRAB then attention of the listener. One way or another, I'm VERY good at getting someone's attention.
