SCOTT BURNS...WORKING VOICE ACTOR AND COACH

I have known and admired Scott Burns’ work as an on-camera and voice-over talent since I first met him some 20 years ago. During that time, I’ve been so fortunate to have worked with him and have always relied upon his considerable artistry to regularly wow my casting clients. But even more important is his considerable graciousness and kindness which makes him such a wonderful ally and collaborator. Plus, he’s just plain fun and brings a lot of joy and laughter with him at no extra charge! It’s my honor to endorse Scott to anyone lucky enough to be in a position to work with him!

Let me introduce you to Scott Burns. All of them. Scott is funny. He’s sincere. He’s earnest. He’s outrageous. He’s tender. He’s smart. He’s an alien. These are just a few of the voice characterizations that live inside Scott’s head. He’s a first-rate vocal artist, with great range and a tireless work ethic. Beyond his outstanding vocal talent, Scott “gets it.” He’s a writer’s best friend because he takes the trouble to understand the script, the character and the purpose of the commercial. The result? The performance you want, every time. I’ve worked with Scott dozens of time over the last umpteen years. I endorse and recommend him enthusiastically.

We have worked with Scott Burns for the past two years as the “narrator” for our client, Les Schwab and their internal training videos. We found Scott to be very professional and extremely versatile. He is very easy to work with and takes direction with grace and ease. Oh, and he’s funny too! I wouldn’t hesitate to hire Scott again for a variety of projects ranging from serious to humorous.

Scott has been my ‘go-to’ voice for longer than I care to admit. A true vocal ‘shape shifter’ with impeccable instincts and timing, Scott has saved many a comedy script. But wait! There’s more! He’s also perfectly cast as the earnest and believable ‘realguy’ that is in such demand these days. And on top of all that, he’s a darned nice guy, he’s punctual and has excellent personal hygiene.

At a time when advertisers increasingly opt for live-read spots, Scott Burns remains a great option for writers and producers looking to break through the clutter. He has developed a long list of character voices that will keep your audiences chuckling… and listening. What’s more, his ad libs guarantee that your finished spots won’t sound forced. Casting might not be everything, but in this case, it’s pretty close. Hire him, and your clients will laugh all the way to the bank.

Great job – you nailed it! I love your work on all the characters.

You always make me smile Scott! This is most impressive. You definitely got the country nuances for this song. You are a talented man!

Love it! Stellar performance as always.

You’ve got a great range!

Thanks for being AMAZING today! I’m CC’ing my editor who can grab the file from you…
