Your Holiday Voice Over Hero!

Your Holiday Voice Over Hero!

Posted by: D.C. Douglas on November 14, 2010 in Voice Over

Faster than the speed of sound! More powerful than Burl Ives sentimentality! Able to voice generic comic book styles in a single recording session!  It’s…

Well, it’s really just a Radio Shack national holiday campaign, but it’s cute!  One of the nicest ladies in voice over casting, Carroll Kimble of Carroll Casting brought me in on the auditions.  After booking it, we recorded at Tree Falls in Studio City.  If you haven’t seen it yet, enjoy:

Advertising agency: Butler Shine Stern & Partners.

But you know what would really roast my chestnuts?  A little Disney-esque animation.  Last month I recorded the voice of the tiger in this Netflix television spot.  The thing to note about it is that they pushed their computers out of the way so they could hand draw each cell of animation!  How cool is that?

Advertising agency: Goodby Silverstein & Partners.  I wish I caught the name of the woman who voices the rabbit because she is perfect!

But let’s make sure I’ve lit up your entire menorah!  Here’s the first gig I landed with my new, awesome voice over agency – AVO Talent.  An unusual gig for Dancing With The Stars!

Hopefully this blog post has put you in the holiday mood.  If so, I could really use some more underwear.  Briefs, but boxer cut – like Mark Wahlberg.

    Happy Holidays Mr. D and may the fat bastard in red get stuck in your chimney- that'll teach him for breaking and entering.

    BTW, take this how you will, but the other day I was discussing with a friend how RE characters would related to Disney characters (as far as I know, we were both sober…) and with your rendition of Wesker, we thought he was more like 'Scar' from 'The Lion King', but when I watched your Netflix commercial with you lending your voice to the tiger, I couldn't help but think you'd also make a good voice for Shere Khan.

    Excellent radio shack spots! Really enjoyed watching them on TV and telling my brother (also a RE fan) who the voice over was. Made his holiday season.

    Isn't the voice of the rabbit on the Netflix spot Katy Mixon? It sure sounds like her.
