Vegas and Promotional Announcements

Recently, I met up with my friend, Dave Courvoisier in Vegas!  Dave is a news anchor for the CBS affiliate, KLAS-TV and he was kind enough to write some nice things about me in his blog, http://www.courvo.biz/2009/06/nppa.html. When Dave’s not working like a dog at the TV station, he is engaged in several voice over projects a week.  We became fast friends after meeting up in Los Angeles last year at Voice 2008.

It was a beautiful weekend in Las Vegas.  As I walked down the Vegas strip, I was reminded, once again, of how many opportunities there are in the field of voice overs.  Las Vegas is the Emerald City of Promotions, so there are voice over announcements being heard up and down the strip, inside and outside of the casinos, promoting specials of all kinds

Currently, I am doing a lot of the Stone Mountain Park announcements, which is similar to the announcements you would hear on the Las Vegas strip.   Stone Mountain Park is an Atlanta, Georgia theme park that has become a favorite family vacation destination.  Most of the announcements I do are in and around the park as well as the announcements that come on before their huge and well-known laser light show.

All voice talents should have a niche.  Could promo announcements be yours?

    It’s a mall world indeed. I used to work on the entertainment staff at Stone Mt. Park (which BTW is actually not in Atlanta, but northeast of the city in Stone Mountain, GA).

    And I went with my wife’s family last summer to watch the laser show there. Didn’t realize that was your voice I was hearing. Very cool.

    That should be “small”, not mall. Silly typo.
