East Indian, North American Aboriginal, Eastern European (a la Schwarzenegger), Ukrainian/Polish, Russian/Slavic - often deep and commanding, smooth Hispanic like Bandaras, funny Hispanic like Speedy Gonzalez or Cheech Marin, southern US as hillbilly as you want or a smooth southern gentleman, French from the silk of Charles Boyer to the gravel of former Canadian Prime Minister Jean Chretien, British from the noble houses to the street vendors. Scots, Irish, oriental, Austrailian... probably many I've forgotten but I pick them up so fast. Characters ... Marilyn Monroe singing Happy Birthday Mr. President. Speedy Gonzalez and his cousin Slow-poke Rodgiguez Pepe le Pew Kermit the Frog A little girl character that really needs to be heard to be understood... Don Adams and Dr Claw from Inspector Gadget Various animal sounds ...dogs, cats, monkeys. Deep and serious for Batman and high and maniacal for the Joker. Marvin the Martian Elmo Golem from Lord of the Rings... and Gandalf... and all the other characters. Voices, characters, noises nasally nerdy voices...

I read The Hobbit to my children and they made me keep all the voices straight! There are a dozen freaking dwarfs in the Hobbit! And my 4 year old kept me in line for every one of them! It wasn't my first voice over work, but it was the most demanding audience. Did a Scottish accent as an announcer for a local heritage festival radio spot. One feedback the producer got was they had someone from Scotland contact them to ask if I was really Scottish. When the producer said "no", the Scot replied that they were pretty sure I wasn't, but they kept listening over and over to be sure. and I've done a couple of recordings for phone answering systems. In one case callers said they had to call back because they so liked listening to my voice they forgot what they were calling about. just gifted with an amazing natural talent!! audio-technica AT2020 Cardiod Condenser mic.
