Joe Alvino

In commercials, I can use various United States dialects, including Southern, Mid-Western, New England, New York / New Jersey, and California surfer. I can use my voice with British, Irish, Italian, French, Australian, and various Hispanic accents. I can also use my voice in a flamboyant way, like in the "Honey Badger" video. As far as impersonations, I can range from different cartoon voices to TV & Movie personalities to some singers.

I have worked in radio since 1987. I have been on the air as a DJ, done numerous live remote broadcasts, recorded numerous radio commercials and promos, conducted artist interviews, and announced bands and performers onto the stage at concerts. I have done voice-over work for television commercials, narrated an informational video for a local municipality, and emceed a local cancer fundraising event. I have had no formal schooling for the work that I have done. All training was done on-the-job. I have access to a studio which uses Adobe Audition 1.5. I do not have a large ego - I can take criticism and direction well. I take pride in doing the job that is expected of me. If I don't get it right, please let me know what I need to do to improve and do the task correctly. I feel that I have good communication and people skills, and strive to have great working relationships.
