Marty Bufalini

Irish, Italian, Southern, British, Brooklyn, German, etc. Excellent at character voices for commercials, animation, etc. Years of character acting on stage and film have honed this ability. I can create and have done a lot of character type voices and accents. Give a listen to my Character reel and you'll see what I mean and how I've used them in different ways for different clients.

I've been in the business for over 40 years as a voice-over artist, on-camera performer, theatrical as an actor and director, performed in numerous industrial films, TV commercials, radio commercials, stage plays, and in feature films.
