Here’s an enjoyable radio commercial I just did for Miller Lite introducing their new Aluminum Pint. Beer commercials usually have really funny radio & TV campaigns and its an opportunity for voiceover talent to stretch your muscles and do something a little bit more over the top. I thought this spot, called “R & D” for research and development, was a clever concept delivering mundane facts within a humorous situation. Speed, clarity, and timing (Chuck!) were key to making this voiceover work. Also, Chuck (sorry Chuck for not getting your last name at the session) was the PERFECT Brewmaster. The funny thing is that Chuck really sounds like that in person. Some people are just given a great set of pipes and others, like me, sound like a teenager in prep school.
I very much enjoyed working with the Miller Lite people (Orlee Tatarka you rock!) and I look forward to doing it again. Oh, and if you can’t figure it out, I was the voice of Bob, the head of R & D. Which is funny because that is totally my fall back job if I don’t make it as an actor!…please note the sarcasm. I hope you enjoy!
