I'm Tommy Alvarez and I have been creating characters for over 26 years. Starting when I was teaching elementary school, I would create characters, their personalities, and their voices to help enhance my lessons to the students. The kids loved them. As a result, I was asked to bring my characters to other schools and present them to their students. There were such characters as "Ugh Lee" the Caveman, King Khafre, the Egyptian Pharaoh, Zeus, Leonardo da Vinci, and many others. When anti-bullying became a major part of education, I decided to study ventriloquism and created an anti-bully presentation that was taken throughout Charlotte County School District. My performance, called "Only A Dummy Is A Bully", was extremely well received by students and adults alike. For this presentation, I created three characters. They were, Bud the Bully, Zeke from Zark (a confused alien), and Goober (the victim). These were fully developed characters with personalities and voices. I had such a great experience with all the characters that I created that I wanted to do more with my voice. It was then that I decided that I wanted to create voice overs and narrations.
Whether it be commercials, educational materials, or book narration, I have the ability and the equipment to supply professional voices for whatever your vocal needs may be.
