Accents, Impersonations, Characters and Dialects

I have a very straight english sound. I don"t consider myself an "impersonator" per say however I have re worked my voice to fit certain projects. I can let you know on a specific project basis.

My Voice Experience

I have over 7 years combined in smallL and Large market radio. It is there I gained mass amounts of voice work experience through literally hundreds of commercial spots and PSA's I completed. Through my journeys in radio I also have done local television voice work as well. In both markets my voice and production style was always in high demand. With Key selling points I can write, voice and produce :30 and :60's for my clients that can include sfx if requested. I can do rip and reads quickly and professionally for a quick turn around time if needed by my clients. Most importantly I am always willing to work with my clients to make sure the project meets all their requirements.

My Training

I have an Associate Of Applied Arts Degree in Music business in which aside from regular curriculum, I studied all aspects of the music business including classes in advertising and commercial script writing. My hands on experience includes over 7 years in small and large market radio that has included writing, producing and voicing hundreds of projects for a multitude of business types. They included car dealerships, restaurants, special events, motorcycle shops, PSA's, music stores, grocery stores and many many other types of business. I have also done hundreds of commercial tags.

My Studio Equipment

I am currently running my studio through a MAC. I use Amadeus Pro for digital editing. I also have a 24 bit/96 k firewire recording interface. I use a Shure condenser microphone as well as a Nady voice specific condenser microphone. I use sennheiser headphones. I also have a music bed and large sound effects library at my disposal. And finally my creativity and my voice. I also have a PC which I have the latest version of Adobe Audition for digital editing as well.

Additional Skills

If requested I enjoy adding my own creative twists to projects. I enjoy working through the creative process with my clients to create fun and original projects. I also understand the need of urgency as well. Within reason of difficulty, I can provide a spot to a client within hours. I also understand that a majority of my clients have clients of their own that have demands of their own. I always keep that in mind when it comes to effeciency and understand that I am representing YOUR business. I prefere keeping the lines of communication open during the project process because certain projects demand that type of flexability.
