Horace Fulgham

My voice can be goofy, stern, sexy, fatherly, lispy, warm, playful, serious, informative and soothing among others.

I worked as a reporter for CBS which required adding personal voice-over to most all of the reports I covered. I was also required to edit my own material prior to placing these reports on air. I also write music and sing for hobby in my home. In doing so, I have aquired a home studio which allows me to not only lay down music tracks, but also produce my own multi-layered voice tracks which I subsequently edit down and layer over the music I have created resulting in a complete song. I attended an excellerated broadcasting class (Illinois Center for Broadcasting) which included training in the areas of broadcast journalism, radio, tv, and voice-over. Graduating tops in my class, I subsequently secured a job with CBS broadcasting in Rockford Illinois as an on-air reporter where my duties included not only interviewing people and getting the story, but also editing my own materal and performing voice-over tracks to complete the story. I would then report the story on camera for the viewing audience. I do have in-home voice recording and editing equipment which allows me to produce a very nice representation of my work. These items include a personal computer, Tascam digital studio with 24 real-time tracks--several virtual tracks and multiple editing capabilities, a microphone, and a computer program which allows me to perform such functions as cut and paste editing and more. I always try to remember the importance of working together as a team if the common goal is to achieve sucess. I have always been a team player and, in many cases, a team leader. I've held positions in management in previous jobs. And, as mentioned before, I graduated tops in my class with many of my class-mates looking to me for advise and guidence or nominating me as team leader for a project. But even in such positions, I work to remember that I am part of a team. And as such, we must work together to reach or goal. I believe this to be true not only in career, but in all aspects of life. As it relates specifically to voice-over, I understand that there are deadlines and other important ideas and features that must be met. I listen. I work well with others. I'm easy going. My very first job in broadcasting was on-air reporting (on-air being fairly unusual for a first job). I'm a quick study. And I do what it take to not only get the job done, but get the job done right.
