Voice Description

No accent, North American English

Styles: Conversational, cool, gravelly, gritty, hard, mellow, raspy, raw, rough, strong, warm, whisper, wise. (And "Movie trailer".)

"Hear the difference. Nothing fake or overblown here. Natural and normal (with a sly wink when necessary).

Let your listeners connect with my voice instead of overwhelming them with an "announcer guy".

Limited project range lets me focus on bringing that "extra something" to match your needs."

- Mark Weitzman

Ok, I'm in Japan.
But that also means you have not heard my voice much.
And that can make a big difference, especially for TV and radio campaigns.
