voice
November 20, 2008On September 1 of this year we lost one of the greats.
Don LaFontaine was a voice that was heard on anything. If you watched a movie trailer in the past 15 years, you heard his voice more than once or a thousand times.
But I especially enjoyed the way in which he never made much of his fame. The man was actually a pretty simple guy who only in his later years was seen in person or on camera. (That Geico commercial was possibly the funniest of its kind)
So here is to "the movie trailer voice guy" may you continue to sound awesome wherever you are. We'll miss ya.
*here's a video I found on youtube of LaFontaine and some other voiceover guys. Pay attention to the voices and see if you've heard them before
