Scott Holst

Accents/dialects: I lived in Australia for a year- so I can be the Outback Steakhouse Guy or the Crocodile Hunter. Others include: Standard British, Russian, Irish, Southern, Texan, Minnesotan/Canadian. Impersonations include: Rick Moranis (ask me to do the Gozer the Traveler Speech from Ghostbusters for you!), Foghorn Leghorn, Eric Cartman from South Park, and this is really random- but I do a mean (literally) impersonation of Mr. Potter from 'It's a Wonderful Life.'

I have been in numerous television and radio commercials. I was the voice of Hotwire.com for over 5 years. In addition, I have been in many video games including: 'BioShock Infinite', 'Grand Theft Auto V', Eugene in 'Whacked!' and Senel Coolidge in 'Tales of Legendia.' I was also in the Warner Bros. feature animation film 'The Ant Bully.' I narrated a show for the History Channel called 'The Million Dollar Challenge'. I also narrated the audiobook 'Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter'- which can be found in the iTunes Store. I am very versatile and adapt well to the different genres of voice over. I have a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Drama (with an Acting Emphasis) from San Diego State University. I took Working Pro from Cathy Kalmenson at Kalmenson & Kalmenson in Los Angeles. I have also been a voice over instructor for Kalmenson & Kalmenson since 2002. I received Improvisational training at the Groundlings and IO West in Los Angeles. I have taken many voice classes that focused on: commercials, animation, promo, and narration. I have my own home studio complete with a sound booth. Additionally, I have ISDN and phone patch capabilities. My equipment includes: a Sennheiser 416 mic, an Avalon M5 pre-amp and I'm running Pro Tools on my iMac. Teaching voice over classes for over the past 15 years has really honed my skills as a performer. I know how to interpret copy, and am very comfortable directing myself and others.
