Among other things, I enjoy woodworking, painting, cooking and working around the house. I am very lucky to have a professional studio with a picnic area and hot tub, which makes it hard to leave home, but great for doing work.
I also engineer, produce, diorect and cast for audio and video projects and I write on topics that include advertising, video games, gear, etc.
- RECENTLY BOOKED PROJECTS
- narrator for all Disney/ Pixar Ratatouille edutainment products, Intel, Microsoft, Breast Cancer Foundation, Sam and Max, ComCast, Houghton Miflin, Alamo Docent Tour, Getty Museum tour,
- LANGUAGES
- I pretty much only speak English, although I know enough to get to a bathroom or have my face slapped in about 40 languages and I traveled abroad extensively when I was younger, which I believe gave me a pretty good ear for coming up with quality accents and regionalisms.
- VOICE DESCRIPTION
- Lots of real and varying voices for commercials, but probably best known for characters - in particular video games, hovering around 400 titles. Large range from early 30's to late 70's in a very unforced manner.
I also do a lot of impersonatiuons and they can be dead on, although many times I am asked for close hits or apporximations. I have performed everything from Schwarzenneger to James Earl Jones, Morgan Freeman to Lewis Black , the last 27 presidents except for George's Jr. and Sr.
Just ask me or better yet, audition me.
- DIALECTS, Character voices and vocal impressions
- tons of accents, including most United States regionalisms (New York, Boston, Midwest, California, Texas, Southern) and all the usual suspects - English (various), Irish (various), Scottish (various), Indian, Japanese, Chinese, French, Italian, German, Russian, and many others.
- VOICES I AM ABLE TO PERFORM
- Senior Male, Middle Age Male, Young Adult Male
- AUDIO DELIVERY METHOD
- ISDN, FTP, AIF, MP3, WAV
