La Von Savage

I grew up in Oklahoma, so I can definitely still sound like a sweet Southern girl, but since living in the Mid-West, I've learned to "lose" the Southern drawl when necessary. Southern Mid-Westerner

I studied one semester of Mass Communications/Radio,TV in college in the late 80's, then did not go back to this area until four years ago in 2006. I then began hosting and voicing a local Real Estate program, "Welcome Home Black Hills with La Von Savage." You can check out the website at www.welcomehomeblackhills.com and see and hear my work. The majority of my learning voice over work has come from On-the-job training. I work for a small company, Western Sky Media, that produces "Welcome Home Black Hills," the local real estate TV show that I host and voice. The owner and producer, Bryan Lessly, has a degree in Mass Com/Radio,TV and has over 25 years in the business, on camera and off. I own a personal computer only, but have access to anything needed for voice production services, due to my current job with Western Sky Media, a media production company here in Spearfish, SD. I am comfortable reading on camera and off and have four years experience doing so. I'm most comfortable with scripted material, but can quickly come up with things to talk about in an interview situation. I can read quite fast if need be and read very well, "cold." I can memorize quickly. I copy voice work very well. If my current employer wants me to read something a certain way it sounds in his head, he says it that way and I can copy it back to him.
