This week is all about Bimmers and holding the line—take a listen…

#fbf: voice of tomtom
A couple of years back I entered a comp to be the voice of Tomtom’s Aussie navigation system. I didn’t win, but certainly had fun trying! So why not put my entries to use and share them for #fbf ?
What I’m working on…
I thought I’d start posting audio snippets of what I’m working on and as everyone loves a good acronym, I’m going to call these posts WIWO or ‘wee-woah’—it has a nice ring to it don’t you think? I’ll start using WIWO as the title from the next post—we don’t want to rush into these things.
Here is a snippet of three samples I prepared for an insurance client.
All I want for Christmas
Wishing you and yours a fab festive season with a little Christmas cheer from voice over artist, musician and video editor Anthony Vincent (of 10 Second Songs fame).
Your call: voicing phone numbers
Just wanted to pass on some really positive feedback from the client. They were so happy with the read and rang yesterday to say they needed the phone number said a different way. I was sure you did another take, and sure enough, you had! Anyway, he was really impressed with the read and your attention to detail.
I got this note last month from a producer I work with—it’s so lovely to receive this type of feedback. I was particularly chuffed as I pride myself on my attention to detail. I am a big believer in investing a little extra effort up front to save time and money further down the track.
If in doubt, I always try to provide options but it is so helpful to have any preferences outlined in the script. Phone numbers are a biggie—there are so many ways they can be presented.
