TRAILER

baseado no gibi

based on the comic

In the history of cinema, there may be no one as ubiquitous, and yet as anonymous, as Don LaFontaine. More commonly known as “the trailer guy,” he’s the owner of the omnipresent voice featured in seemingly every film preview in the last 40 years, the man whose rich baritone has made “in a world…” part of the pop culture lexicon.

“From 1964 until now, I’ve been involved in about 5,000 [movie] trailers and have voiced about 3,500 of them”Having recently starred in a Geico commercial, where he dramatizes the tale of an everyday insurance customer, LaFontaine has finally come out from behind the mic, and in the process has added to his particular brand of celebrity. Radar caught up with the King of the Voice-over to ask what it’s like, after all these years, to finally get noticed.

i’ll have to find a new tag for this, maybe ‘backstage stuff’ or something. pretty interesting, actually.

this would be te place to introduce myself and explain what this blog is about, but the description in the sidebar is pretty self-explanatory, my friend. just click PLAY and enjoy.
