Voice over needed for DVD presentation
LTK6307994980X
This is a 45-60 min DVD presentation for BMW. Voiceover approx 30-40 min. It is an overview of the development of all aspects of their cars. The voice should be authoritative but not too corporate and really narrating the "Story of BMW". The session will be done in 2 or 3 recordings and usually there are some revisions before the final video, so please quote on those as well. Please read only male announcer parts. We would like to direct via phone patch and download via FTP, or if it is too much data, Fedex a CD. The recording would ideally be 24 bit 48 KHz files but 16 bit would be acceptable. No editing of files is necessary. A few pronunciations for you:
Niki Lauda - Nicky Loud-a
Nelson Piquet - Nelson PK
M635CSi - M-six-thirty-five-CSi
Nürburgring - Nur-burg-ring
The recording would be done in September-October approx. Budget USD 750 - 999.
Good Luck and Thank-you.

BMW M
Male announcer: BMW M has its origins in BMW Motorsport, and the M1 super-car. Formula One legends, Niki Lauda and Nelson Piquet led a field of competitors in identical M1s in the Pro Car Series in 1979 and 1980.
Bernhard Gobmeier: Of course, race engine and a family sedan sounds like a contradiction, but we thought, okay, if the whole package would be well-balanced, maybe it’s a car which would be appealing to a lot of customers. And sure enough with that car we basically founded a new niche, a new segment—
Super: Bernhard Gobmeier
Head of Product and Process Control
BMW M
Male announcer: —a completely new type of car: the M car.
The M635CSi was a svelte, nimble GT coupe with race-car performance.
The first M3 was equally at home on the road and track. It won 1500 races and 100 championships, becoming the most successful touring-car racer of all time.
With the new M6 and the fourth-generation M5, the M engineers continue to push the edge of the technology envelope.
The engine is a high-revving, five-liter V-10, inspired by the BMW WilliamsF1 P84 engine. But the M engine is built to last for more than two weekends and doesn’t require a pit crew to keep it running!
Helmut Himmel: You can use it as an everyday engine. You have the refinement and driveability in everyday conditions and everyday traffic. But you can also use it like a race engine on the racetrack.
Super: Helmut Himmel
Head of Engine Project Management
BMW M
Male announcer: The engine shatters the magical 100-horsepower-per-liter barrier, and is capable of 8,250 rpm! Performance on the grueling Nürburgring track is astounding.
Male announcer: Managing this incredible power-plant is a control unit derived from Formula One racing. It performs 200 million calculations per second!
The BMW WilliamsF1 car has a sequential manual so the driver can change gears as fast as possible. This is the same reason the M5 and M6 have a 7-speed Sequential Manual Gearbox.
Siegfried Friedmann: If you use our SMG in the sequential mode, then the system shifts in up to 60-70 milliseconds from one gear to the next. A typical driver nearly needs twice the time. He shifts between nearly 120-150 milliseconds.
Super: Siegfried Friedmann
M Project Manager
BMW M
Male announcer: When you drive an M car, you feel more than power. You feel glued to the road. But how do M engineers improve on BMW’s already amazing handling?
Through innovations like these huge, cross-drilled brakes:
Siegfried Friedmann: Well, we have designed this cross-drill technology to improve the braking ability under wet conditions. These holes actually break up the water on the disc, so the pad immediately gets in contact with the disc and so braking time is reduced.
Male announcer: M customers are a special breed of driver, and they ask for even quicker response, more predictable feedback and sharper handling.
Bernhard Gobmeier: We try to make everything as direct as possible to get the best response from the car to the driver, in order to give the driver the feeling to be under control. That the customer really can feel the difference to a regular car.
Male announcer: How much competition is there between the regular BMW engineers and the M engineers?
Bernhard Gobmeier: There is no competition. It’s clear that we have the most passion!
