Dave Pettitt
Vancouver, BC, Canada
Highlights
Dave has a wonderfully deep and trusting announcer voice. He can pack some intense, ominous movie trailer power behind it for those hard sell projects, but it's his warm, caring voice that keeps him most busy. Across the country, you'll hear Dave's voice on many medical and hospital commercials with his authentic, trustworthy and confident delivery. At the same time, it's his voice that drives those sports teams commercials with an edgy, gravelly sound.
Dave is a Professional male voice talent with a believable, easy to listen to voice for narration.

THANK-YOU FOR SAVING ME TO YOUR FAVORITES
=======================================
His confident, authoritative style offers a sincere, conversational sound, while still giving a professional, and sometimes education performance. Still, if you require that gruff, edgy, gravelly delivery to brand your product, Dave's raw instincts kick in and will blow you away with that primal, antagonistic sound.
Dave is often hired for for the deep, inspiring style of read for sports commercials and documentary. Clients looking for something similar to Morgan Freeman or Sam Elliot appreciate his range can go from a burly gruff, menacing attitude to a warm, calming and touching voice. Like a Grandfather.
When it comes to E-Learning, you can't ask for a more clear, friendly and genuine male voice. He is easy-to-understand and amusing to work with. Dave often tells people, "He's not a medical doctor, but he may have voiced the educational video that taught that doctor everything he knows... so in a way, he saved your life."
And of course, from the many animated video games and cartoons he's worked on, Dave can bring any kind of character to the table. From the evil villain, to the wacky professor, characters with Scottish, Irish, Russian. Whether deep, conservative corporate narration or high energy, hard sell car spots. Whether funny, comical characters and guy next door, or epic heroes and game show announcers, Dave has the voice and the instincts to pull it off.
