But Who Won the OTHER Election? The Best VO Political Impersonators Are …
Nov. 5, 2008
Saturday Night Live has a grip on great TV political impersonations, but the voice-over world has winners, too.
Voters in the Voice 123 Political Impersonation Contest have made their voices heard. And the winners are:
- Jonathan Grey, for his impersonation of Barack Obama,
- J.S. Gilbert, for John McCain,
- Michele Santopietro, for Sarah Palin, and
- Thomas Bromhead, winner of the Wild Card category (which means, anything else).
Click on the names above to hear their winning entries.
In the contest, Voice 123’s Premium subscribers were invited to submit entries, which were voted on by other subscribers of the service. Each winner received a free 6-month subscription to Voice 123. And Grey won an additional 6-month subscription for having impersonated the winner of the actual U.S. election.
SHOWS OFF TALENT
“A motive of this contest was to show off the talent on Voice 123,” says Steven Lowell, Quality Assurance Manager. “All of the entries went to our database of nearly 40,000 voice seekers.
“I came to work today and found an email from a voice seeker wanting to hire Jonathan Grey. I love it when things work out like this.”
Barack and Jonathan are indeed happy today, too.
