Neil Ross

[Xerus]

XERUS’S VOICE ARTIST FOCUS:

Today’s V/A focus is Neil Ross. A popular voice artist from England who did voices for lots of cartoon characters, movies, and video games during the 80’s, 90’s, and today. His first character was a salesman in a Richie Rich cartoon from 1980. Neil can do all sorts of voice ranges from deep sounding voices that are good for performing superheroes and news reporters, normal sounding teenage guy voices, and high pitched voices that are good for performing smart mouth characters and villains. The Garfield Gets Real DVD features an interview with Neil along with other talented voice artists.

Ugh! I hate Moneybags The Bear. I'm glad Spyro finally gets even with him in the end.

I never liked Lt. Kellaway from the Mask. He was a bad tempered, authority abusing, jerk.

Haha! I thought is was pretty funny myself but I like those kinds of characters but that's just me I suppose.

My favorite Neil Ross voice is that funny news reporter Whitley White from Attack of the Killer Tomatoes.

And I also like Shipwreck from G.I. Joe and his parrot Polly who were both voiced by Neil.

I was amazed when I found out the same guy did both Whitley and Shipwreck since their voices sound so different.
