Ambrose
Crisp, measured male voice, ideal for formal announcements, premium trailer narration, and command-forward presentation scripts.
When I think of my wife, I always think of her head.
The shape of it, to begin with.
The very first time I saw her, it was the back of the head I saw, and there was something lovely about it, the angles of it.
Like a shiny, hard corn kernel or a riverbed fossil.
She had what the Victorians would call a finely shaped head.
You could imagine the skull quite easily.
I’d know her head anywhere.
About this sample
Nick’s opening about his wife’s head is unsettling because it is calm. Ambrose reads it measured and crisp, which is exactly the wrong kind of calm, in the right way.
