As a result of a conversation between Andrew who makes TV commericals and Ross who makes on air promotions for one of the big sports networks I am now the voice of one of the big sports networks.
You never know who is talking about YOU or what they are saying. I'm as pleased as an Otter with a particularly large Winkle. |

(Mock indignation)  Let me state categorically that I am disgusted at having had the image of Mr. Banks' grotesquely large (and no doubt highly imagined) otter Winkle seared into my brain no matter how briefly!!!!
ICK!....and of course, ya know, congratulations on the job and the, um...winkle

So we're talking voice of the Cubs... right?... maybe not.

It took me awhile, but I finally figured out what a Winkle was.

That's what I love about this business -- all the little ways that work comes to you through some grand design that you can't predict but that you can influence by being friendly, showing up on time, and working hard.
I suppose that applies to any business, but somehow it seems more transparent but less predictable in VO.
Good on you, Banksey. |
