George Washington III and Dan Friedman are featured during week 10 of MVO: The Voice-Over Guys’ Football Showdown!
GEORGE WASHINGTON III is having one tough football season because in addition to supporting his home field Carolina Panthers (who are not enjoying their post Super Bowl experience this season) George also supports the Chicago Bears who are, well, the Chicago Bears this season.
DAN FRIEDMAN and his Tampa Buccaneers are having a better season than the Bears….but that’s about all that can be said. But we are only a little past the 1/2 mark of the season so anything can happen. And this weekend, it better for either team’s sake.
ABOUT MALE VOICEOVER TALENT GEORGE WASHINGTON III
In 2003, I began voicing with a trip to a local recording studio to do some narration bits for a First Union National Bank industrial. The gig stirred my imagination, and I began the research and practice to make my first demos. Working with sources both local and national, new opportunities came over time, and I started working on projects as small as phone messaging to as large as national ad campaigns.
Since that time, I have provided voice over services in documentaries, video games, radio and television commercials, in store announcements, marketing on hold, websites and web ads, virtually every aspect of the voice-over industry. My voice has represented companies like McDonalds, Courtyard by Marriott, Whole Foods, Big Lots, Time Warner Cable, and Lowe’s Home Improvement. My home studio is giving me the opportunity to build on my voicing successes, and I am looking to keep growing with new clients and outlets for years to come.
I have called Charlotte home since 1998 with my daughters Grace, Naomi and Ella, and my son Jordan.
