Voice Description

I have a warm, unique quality. Energetic to laid back and in-between. I did LORD ZEDD on the MIGHTY MORPHIN POWER RANGERS-deep & gruff, and RATSO CATSO on WOWSER, high and nasal. Plenty of accents. Have been likened to old time actor Sterling Holloway when I do narra-tion. Versatile. Know how to take direction. Can do hard sell and soft sell for commercials. Not announcery!

My Voice Experience

Excerpts from my Bio:

Mr. Axelrod is also a busy voice over artist. He is the voice of Lord Zedd and Finster on the “Mighty Morphin Power Rangers”. The Lord Zedd voice is one of the most recognizable character voices around. He voiced Armadillomon and Wizardmon on “Digimon, Microchip, The Punisher’s sidekick, on “Spiderman”, Rico on “Robotech”, and has voiced countless Anime features including “Akira”, “The Big O”, “Cowboy Bebop”, “Brain Scratch”, et al. As Lord Zedd, he starred in both the first Power Rangers feature film and the wildly popular live show that toured the country. He was a regular character on Saban Entertainment’s “Wowser” series (as Ratso Catso), “Journey To The Heart of the World” (as Scarface), “Hallo Spencer” (as Elmer), and more. He just finished narrating the mockumentary “Safety First: The Rise of Women and voicing three Anime series, “Gaiking”, “Danguard Ace”, and “Captain Horlock”.
