Voice Description
Here are some descriptions of the interpretive "modes" I can do for you:
Narration -
1) Warm, deep, comforting, confident
2) Knowledgeable and assuring teacher, explaining complex or technical material. Familiar with scientific and IT terminology.
3) Objective, yet compassionate observer
4) Quiet, low, calming voice for meditative or spiritual content
Spots -
1) Credibly energetic in a mature way
2) I believe in the product
3) Casual and fun
4) Ironic, funny, positive
Characters -
1) Announcer - the classic radio, DJ or "Premiere" Announcer or VOG (Voice Of God) for Events
2) I'm also a ventriloquist so I have character voices for boys, young adult male, absent minded country bumpkin, middle aged Brooklyn "gumba" guy, and a flirtatious spinster female.
