My Voice Experience

I have been doing voiceovers since 1988 beginning with studio musical albums. In 1989 I was a radio announcer on my own program for 10 years on gospel station K.T.Y.M. (1460)A.M. I produced a few cds with my own original music and lyrics as well as some public domain. I am currently doing a 17 volume book on dvd video which I was hired to do because the person was immpressed with my vocal and recording abilities.Her prodject was entitled: "The Gospel According To Sister Wiggins". Some of the voiceovers that I had done recently were "Heavy Metal", "Funk/Soul", "Deep Type Narration" and barritone.

My Training

I attended television production classes, seminars and workshops as well as private instruction from 1991-2007. I have been certified on various formats, starting with three quarter inch and half inch tape all the way to digital formats.I began my instruction at "Continental Cablevision" then going to "Media One" and on to "Hollywood CCTV" in the valley. I also took up private classes learning digital editing on a "Mac Computer". I then went on to purchase other video editing programs to get familiar with them as well.I own my own digital recording and mastering equipment for tools to work with which keeps me from depending on other sources.

My Studio Equipment

I own a simple "Fostek 8 track digital recording deck with built in effects" as well as a "Cool Edit Pro 128 track studio and Mastering" in my computer. I own a "Fender Stratocastor Guitar","An Acoustic Classical Guitar", "Two Yamaha Basses",An "Acoustic 200 Watt Bass Amp Head", A "Fender 200 watt bass amp With a 15 inch speaker", "A Korg Vocorder", A "Yamaha Keyboard" with Various Sampled Sounds And Effects and a number of effects pedals.
