Jeff Crass

My natural sound is a neutral East Coast accent. Popular characters I can impersonate include Disney's Mickey Mouse and Goofy, Kermit the Frog, Ernie and Grover of the Muppets, as well as a pirate/sea captain, "Surfer dude," farmer, old man (sounds like a Grandpa Simpson-type) and a Jerry Lewis-esque nerd. I can also do a cheesy, 1950s-style deep-voiced announcer, a la Gary Owens, Don Pardo, etc.

As an intern in 2002, I produced and narrated a documentary-style info video for a charitable group based in Trenton, NJ. As a student at Rider University, I hosted an interview program as a for-credit works-study project, as well as hosted a radio program. I currently work for Equity Communications in Atlantic City, NJ, which operates six radio stations, including 100.7 WZXL, 95.1 WAYV and 99.3 KissFM (WZBZ-FM). I have voiced and produced a number commercials that have aired on several of their stations. Rider University, Summer 2002 graduate. Bachelor of Arts English, Communications minor. Connecticut School of Broadcasting, Spring 2009 graduate. I have access to a studio which has a sound board and mixing equipment, CD and mini disc players and MP3 capabilities. I currently use the latest version of Adobe Audion for audio recording and mixing; I am very knowledgeable in this program. I also have some skills in video editing using FinalCut Pro or similar software.
