ROCK ON BITCHES!!!! - Crazy, bitchy, emotional, angry, over-the-top, fiesty, whatever. In Vixen land it's all the same thing - this is one of my most sought after sounds. And if your voiceover calls for any of these - you need THIS bitch!
I get called in to play the annoying girlfriend or nagging, bitchy wife on a regular basis in commercials and other voiceover projects. Ask anyone who knows me - they'll tell you, this is not a big strech - just ask my husband! What can I say, I come from a long line of women who love to drive their men crazy. This sound is liberally peppered throughout most of my demos and really shines on The North Face commercial on my home page.
This voiceover personality has a theme song too! Perhaps you've heard this f-bomb ladden gem from the band Theory of A Dead Man.
Keeping It In the Family - My impression of my Sicilian mother has become somewhat legendary. My mom is a firey, off the boat Italian and i've been mimicing her for as long as I can remember. I perform a slew of voiceovers in English with an Italian accent. This Italian accent is as authentic as it get's so if you're looking for a real Italian...i've got you covered.
The Italian accent, with loads of latin roots is sophisticated and bold. A mild Italian accent will bring class and International appeal to your commercial or presentation (it will even sounds a bit like Spanish at times). Many of my clients even feel that the Sicilian dialect my character is based makes the voiceover sound European but not country / origin specific.
A true or full Italian accent means your script will be lyrical and full of character. It's easy to understood but be aware that certain consonant sounds will disappear as they do not existing in the Italian alphabet. Most notably H is a silent sound and the language does not have a naturally occuring TH sound.
Lastly, an over-the-top, cartoony or Americanized Pizza Slinging character is also on the menu. This sound is great for video games, animation projects or anything that needs to be Italian but also funny and goofy.
