Voice Over on Kenyan media…

November 1st, 2008  |  Published in Uncategorized

Annoyed at the ad on one of the tv stations advertising some special on the US election, boasting media presence in the States, the UK, and Kogelo, for one fundamental reason. The dude doing the Voice Over cannot BOTHER to learn how to say “Kogelo” properly, nor can the Media House bother to MAKE him.

I’ll do the V.O, and I’ll consider it professional to learn how to pronounce words that I may not necessarily be familiar with, and I’ll charge them Ksh 10 less. Regardless, I realize I have the sultry feminine voice going, which doesn’t quite work when you want that deep movie voice. They need to hire someone else, or Mr. So and So ought to take his job and his audience more seriously.
