Darren Kahmeyer
It’s more than a voice, it’s a feeling
Consistency of voice and tone is critical to making the impressions you need to convert listeners and viewers to customers of your brand. The familiarity is either felt or it’s not. Your audience feels that connection and a bond forms that leads to trust.
Whether your goal is to educate, entertain, or inspire, high quality should always be the backbone of your ad. As new trends ascend and set the tone for a time, a voice-over artist who stays ahead of the curve will be ready to deliver a timely performance capturing the voice of the moment. The consummate voice will work with you every step of the way to ensure an on-point deliverable that elevates your ad to perfection.
Darren is that talent. His experience in commercial voice-over gives him an advantage over others when it comes to nailing an engaging performance in a 30-second spot or even a 6-second one! You need a bullseye and he’s your sniper.
It takes an understanding of the copy, the intent, and the audience to create a quality production. You need an actor you can depend on to identify what matters most for the delivery and give a quick turnaround. Thankfully, you’ve already found him.
Darren has a vast tonal range that sits comfortably in the “manly” category but isn’t confined to it. When you need a darker sound that says “whiskey” without saying it or a friendly guy next door voice patiently explaining the new IT service you’ve signed up for, he’s got you covered.
