Commercial

Commercial voice over that sounds like your brand

:15, :30 and :60 spots for radio, TV and digital — conversational, upbeat or authoritative, revised directly with Dave, never through an agent.

Reads that fit the brand, not a stock announcer

A commercial read has one job: sound like the brand, not like a voice-over. Dave has voiced national and regional spots for restaurants (Jimmy John's, Pizza Hut, Huddle House, First Watch), retail and consumer (Northern Tool & Equipment, Bud Light, Motorola, Honeywell), automotive (Ford Lincoln Mercury, Audi, Lamborghini, Porsche, Bentley, BMW M, Ducati, Brembo), travel and lifestyle (Norwegian Cruise Line, Miami International Airport, Dallas Safari Club), finance (3Rivers Federal Credit Union) and technology (HP Aruba, Daktronics).

Twenty-plus years of that work means the read is calibrated for air the first time — and when the client changes their mind, the revision goes straight to Dave, the same day, without a booking desk in the way.

Commercial voice over questions

What kind of commercial reads do you do?

Whatever the brand voice calls for: the warm, conversational read for a regional credit union; the upbeat, fast read for a QSR spot; the grounded, authoritative read for an automotive or industrial brand. Send the script and a sentence about the brand and Dave will match it — or send two takes in different directions so you can choose.

How do revisions work?

Directly. There's no agent or studio manager between you and the booth. If the client wants a word changed, a beat faster, or a whole different attitude, say so and the new take comes back — usually the same day.

Can you do the :06 and :15 social cutdowns too?

Yes. Ask for the cutdowns up front and they come back with the full-length spot so the reads match.

Do you handle usage and licensing?

Usage is agreed in writing before the session — market, media and term — so there are no surprises later. The terms page covers the standard licensing and the AI/voice-cloning restrictions that apply to every recording.

Can our agency direct the session?

Yes. Source Connect Pro and other live communication options are available for live remote direction. Or send the script with the brief and get takes back to review.
