Additional vocal abilities
My straight-ahead read resembles Annette Bening and several unnamed PBS and NPR announcers. Add a little hubba-hubba and you get a dash of Marilyn Monroe tinged with Mae West. Accents: Jewish, Southern, Mid-Atlantic-British-Gypsy, other. Hear Character Demo.
Experience, training, and equipment
When you are building your brand and image remember the quality of your spokesperson is essential. I can help you reach your market and reach your goals. Look at some of the successful projects I’ve voiced. I’m a great pre-recorded or live announcer. I’ve voiced introductions for Larry Jordan’s Digital Production Buzz and his Las Vegas NAB Show announcements. And I’ve been the voice of A.L.I.S. Hotels Chain convention announcements. Lobby and Kiosk ads and announcements. If you’ve visited a PacificCare lobby, or walked past a Ramada Resorts Kiosk near Disneyland, or watched an Orly beauty video in your local beauty supply, or wandered into a home theater store and viewed a Wilshire Home Entertainment video in the past, you’ve probably heard my voice. Films, Radio, and TV. Most recently providing live audio description for the visually impaired for the WWE Friday Night Smackdown, I’ve also recorded AD for Paramount feature films. (NDAs prevent identifying specific films.) I’ve hosted a jazz radio show for an NPR affiliate. I’ve hosted, written, and produced an arts and entertainment weekly TV news segment, and I’ve provided property descriptions for the local Canaday Real Estate TV show. Commercials for all outlets. I’ve voiced quite a diverse range of commercials for TV, radio, and the Internet. Here is a representative list. American Career College, Suzanne Somers Women’s Health Radio, Dr. Amen, Dr. Kotis, Relationship 911, Maverick Investments, Colonial Buffet, California State University Fullerton anniversary ads series. Documentaries and Informercials and other long form. MyNutrition Store, UCI Center for Citizen Peacebuilding, Oceans Alive, Water 101, Yamaha AW16G Music Mixing Board Demo, Crossroads Computer Art DVD poetry reading and product description. Training Videos. Honda, Mitsubishi, a major freight transportation company (NDA), Zeiss, various medical (NDA), United Airlines, Sun Microsystems, Federal Express, Rockwell. Other. Emmy Award-winning writer.
I have a BS in Business with extensive coursework, training and professional experience in music education (including teaching voice and voiceover for Orange County School of the Arts), music performance (vocal and instrumental), acting, journalism, scripting programs, video and television producing. Voice (singing) training over 40 years working with a number of notable coaches and teachers. Voiceover training with Dick Tatum and in assorted workshops. Acting training over 10 years at the Charles Conrad and Steve Eastin Studios in greater Los Angeles and at South Coast Repertory in Orange County. Former Los Angeles Daily News arts and entertainment columnist, and recipient of an Emmy Award for writing. Familiarity with foreign language pronunciation in several languages, performing and visual arts terms and knowledge, and medical and technical pronunciations.
