As a film/TV actor, I apply techniques I learned in that field to VO. Script and character analysis go a long way toward bringing a script to life. I've had the good fortune to have met wonderful clients all over the world. Love the voice over life! I'm a voice over teacher and private VO coach. Details at www.voiceovercoachdan.com. Heading a panel on voice over at ComicCon Tampa this July. Graduated Emerson College, Boston, MA as a speech major.

KRK Rokit 6 Studio Reference Monitors (have a spare pair of 5's - want to buy them?) KRK S-10 Sub-Woofer Film and Television Actor. Live corporate event voice over. Emcee for live events. Sports announcer and reporter. Former Radio Station DJ. I have owned and operated radio stations, currently own a small business and have experience with professional services such as attorneys, accountants, IT professionals, and other fields. Very comfortable as an authority figure, but like CEO's in the real world, people skills must show through. So a warm but authoritative voiceover role would fit me well. I also do well with dramatic voiceover roles, and that's supported by my acting endeavors. And finally, I would like to say it's a pleasure and duty of a voiceover artist to work with the client to adjust the product until the client is 100% satisfied. In fact, the process of refining a performance is one of the best parts of the job! Looking forward to speaking with you. Thank you!
