VOX Talk PODCAST: EPISODE 33

Salutation:

Hi, as Matt Williams just said, my name is Stephanie. Welcome to VOX Talk! Julie Williams and Adam Fox are on the show today with a guest appearance by Julie-Ann Dean in the VOX Box. We’re going to hit everything from the Apple iPhone Voice Over Controversy all the way through to Voices.com voice actors on CNN! Let’s get this party started.

The Loop:

Apple iPhone Voice Over Controversy

When you hear the word iPhone, the first thing that should come to mind is Apple. When you hear the words iPhone Television Voice Over, it’s a bit more ambiguous! Some sources say that the voice actor is none other than John Krasinski from the hit NBC sitcom “The Office”, however, no one knows for sure who the voice actor is!

I called Apple’s Corporate Office and asked them if they could confirm the identity of the voice actor, and I’m sorry to say it’s under wraps. Who do you think did the voice over for the Apple iPhone?
