Tim Perry

I am a 30-year V/O professional with thorough understanding of the creative process, agency/client protocols and production realities. I began my professional voice career in radio in 1978. I spent 10 years off & on in the business in markets small, medium & large...including a stint doing rock radio morning drive in Detroit (WABX). At one point or another I was an air personality, Program and Music Director with duties in announcing, news, commercial production, copywriting, promotions and public service. For the past 20 years I have been an advertising writer, broadcast producer and voice talent at agencies in Detroit and Grand Rapids. I've concepted, written, voiced and produced literally hundreds of radio and TV spots, sales presentations and promotional videos (web & traditional). As a writer, I know how to dial into an audience. As a producer, I know how to work with talent and execute ideas. As a voice talent, I know how to deliver the message. Most of my initial training came from my time in radio, which was pretty much a seat-of-the-pants kind of learning. And as a broadcast producer of 20 years, I learned how to work with talent from the other side of the glass as well. My home studio produces air-quality sound.It consists of a dedicated PC, an Omega Lexicon USB interface, Behringer MS-40 near-field monitors and a number of condenser and dynamic mics. I record, edit and mix on Cakewalk Sonar. I also have easy access to ISDN lines and scores of high-end mics. It gits 'er done. Writer, Producer Versatile, quality-driven wordsmith.
