His
story began with a portable reel-to-reel recorder, a child’s record player and a
head full of voices. Wait… that doesn’t sound right, does it? Let’s just say
that he started imitating people and creating characters when he was a little
boy. There. That’s better.Years later (despite several frustrated teachers who
struggled to shut him up), at the age of 16, Scott “Scooter” Fortney
began his
professional work in the voice-over business in local radio. The first skill he
learned was the art of voice acting - how to create pictures in the listener’s
mind with his voice.
As Scooter honed his voice acting skills, he also worked
hard to learn every studio production technique available. Those production
skills are clearly evident in every project he produces. In 1992, before most
people had even heard of it, he purchased one of the earliest pieces of software
for digital production.
Highly skilled in voice acting, character voices, digital
audio production and copywriting; in several of his radio jobs Scooter
served as
Director of Creative Services. For over thirty years, he has written, voiced and
produced several award-winning ads.
Today, from his home studio, Scooter produces projects
for a wide array of clients all over the world - from Television and
Radio
commercials to Audio Books, Videogames, iPod Apps, Stage Plays, Internet Narrations, Corporate Videos, PowerPoint
Presentations and Telephone Systems.
Additionally, Scooter directs and produces demos for
other voice-over talents around the world. If you are or wish to become a voice
