Drop your business card.
Give it to the copywriter or agency producer, and simply say “thanks for the gig, here’s my card if you need anything”. At Piehole we offer to design cards for free for our voiceovers, as it leaves such a good impression when they leave their cards behind in studios.
Cheers Big Ears!
Make your escape! When you’ve done your gig, say your goodbyes and thank you’s. No need to stick around as a voiceover.
Absolutely LOVE this ad for LVCVA by R&R partners, Las Vegas. It’s about Chin Chilli Day. Haven’t heard about it? You’re not the only one…
Back to the UK and this week it’s for Anti Piracy by Creative Partnership, London.
It’s not your ad…
Again, copywriters can be quite anal. They probably have a specific idea about what they’re looking for. All you can do, as a voiceover, is try to figure out what on earth they mean when they say ‘warm yet corporate’ or ‘more energy - but slow it down a bit’ or something else vague. Try to be patient and not have too many “creative differences”.
Two completely different ads this week: Rowntree’s Randoms by JWT London:

Epic ad for Strongbow by St. Lukes London:
