Real Men of Genius: Mr. Incomprehensible Voice Over Script Writer Guy
I was reading some venting and general gnashing of teeth and fretting over difficult tongue-twisting copy written by those who don't necessarily take into consideration how a sentence will sound once spoken aloud. Kinda like the sentence you just read, actually.
Inspired by such drama, I re-recorded today a piece I wrote last year but has stuck with me (and becomes more certifiably pertinent to my experience each day). It is my salute to you, "Mr. Incomprehensible Voice Over Script Writer Guy". The backing track is performed by the wonderful and talented Mr. Victor Harris.

Great parody. The only thing worse than the bad script writer is the client who insists on writing their own copy. I recently had to read a sentence where the subject and verb didn't agree, and I couldn't get it changed. "Verbatim" was my reply.
Do you know the name of the guy who voices those Bud spots? He's the image voice on WLW, and he parodied the ads himself in WLW promos.
