Tis the season. The political advertising season that is. I know this causes groans for most people but for voice talent, the season is one of opportunities. Here’s a look at a political ad I voiced recently… https://youtu.be/Zb72HtuBbwkVideo can’t be loaded because JavaScript is disabled: Clean Up Her Mess Political Voice Over (https://youtu.be/Zb72HtuBbwk)   My […]

Be honest. How many times have you teared up a little from a heartwarming Publix commercial? They have a way of just getting you. At the end of 2022, I was booked in one such Publix commercial. Actually, this one was more of an “AWE” or an inspirational poster personified. I’m just the “Mom” in […]

One of my hobbies is interior design. We just finished a huge home renovation and it has been so fun to design all the new spaces. That’s why I was soo thrilled to be the Honeybloom for At Home voiceover. Honeybloom is an At Home exclusive line. Below is a dining room moodboard I put together showing […]

I can’t believe I’m writing this but I was recently in She Hulk! Ex-wife of Mr Immortal, technically, ex-wife #1 or Amy. It was an amazing experience. Now that it’s out, I can breath again. For awhile, I didn’t want to believe it was real because 1| in case my part was cut or I […]

Never in a million years would I have thought these words would be said, “I am the female promo voice for Jerry Springer.” Me, Heidi Rew. The girl that grew up straight-laced, didn’t drink until after 21, never did drugs and didn’t even kiss a guy until I was 17. That girl is now teasing […]

For this years, VO Atlanta, I hosted two breakout sessions. The first was titled, “2021 Commercial Trends.” The second one was “What 4 Years of Not Booking Taught Me About Resilience.” I thought I’d share some of the insights about Commercial Trends. We started off actually going back to the start of Covid. HOW 2020 […]

2021 has been a great year so far! I’m excited to announce I’m the voice of Twist, a brand new network! Twist is a new network from Tegna, Inc. It is a woman-oriented channel featuring lifestyle and reality programming. Some of my favorite reality shows will be on it – Top Chef Masters, Queer Eye for […]

The start of 2021 was great because I booked a Home Depot host job through the People Store (my on-camera agent). Being an on-camera host/actor for over a decade in Atlanta, I’ve never booked a Home Depot job (on-camera wise) until now. Despite living across the street from Home Depot’s headquarters, spending SO much money […]

Hey friend! Welcome, come take a tour of my voiceover booth! I thought it’d be fun to share a little bit about my “home away from home” or maybe I should say my “home inside my home?”Even though we have an actual home studio we built out, my voiceover booth is actually within my office […]

Mike, my husband, and I are full-time voice talent and we never set out to create what is Atlanta Voiceover Studio (or at least what it has grown to be). HOW IT STARTED Four and a half years ago, I complained to Mike that I hated not seeing people on a regular basis. The “con” […]

Holiday commercials to me are like Hallmark Christmas movies to others. I know we’re just at the beginning of the season, but I thought I’d share some of the Best Holiday Commercials of 2020…at least in my opinion.  Besides a funny Capital One commercial starring John Travolta as Santa and Samuel L Jackson as his […]

One of the major industries affected by COVID is the live event industry. But thanks to technology…live events can still take place. And Atlanta North Studios has the technology to do just that! Which is why Todd Duncan, who hosts Sales Mastery, flew from California to Atlanta to take his conference virtual. Innovation with Live VO […]

Things are starting to pick up with on-camera work and in August, I had my first audition and booking during COVID. Then in September, I was the live VO announcer for a virtual conference. Here’s what it was like being on-set during COVID… My first experience was with the agency Ferebee and Momentive. Ferebee is […]

I was on air in radio for 8 years, plus additional weekend and fill-in work for 2 years after I went full-time into voiceover and acting. Never in a million years did I think I’d do radio imaging but I just wrapped up recording my radio imaging demo. The Radio Voice When I was in […]

Two years ago, I auditioned for a VO-only part in an indie film called Only. Only stars Frieda Pinto and Leslie Odom Jr. It’s about a mysterious virus that just kills women. It’s more than a pandemic movie (I mean, we’re all basically LIVING that movie) but a love story which draws deep parallels about […]

It’s always exciting when you get to do a voiceover for a company you personally use…especially when you’re talking about a sweet treat! I call that one sweet voiceover. That was the case when I booked Edible Arrangements. I love getting and sending Edible Arrangements. When I booked it, it happened to fall right at […]

As a voiceover actor, I want to highlight an incredible black-owned advertising agency that’s creating powerful messages for brands. These past couple of weeks have been emotional, heart-breaking and eye-opening. It’s led to conversations and a stretching of myself that I didn’t even realize was necessary.  One of the bright spots, though, has been seeing […]

Who knew when Jonathan Tilley (personal brand strategist) asked me to join him on his podcast to talk about creating a great home office space a year ago that it’d be released during COVID19?! So many people are now working from home, which has its ups and downs. One of the “downs” is that it […]

If you listened to my podcast, The Heidi Rew Show, you know that somehow I managed to fit all my clothes and toiletries for 11 days in Italy into a carry-on. I only repeated an outfit once (it was my overalls and I did change my tank top the 2nd time). Here’s how that happened… […]

Hi! If you stopped by, you probably saw my segment on Atlanta & Company about How to Throw an Oktoberfest Beer Tasting party! To watch the whole segment, click HERE. Here are all the details from the segment so you can throw your own beer tasting! WHAT IS OKTOBERFST? Oktoberfest started in 1810 when the […]

I LOVE, LOVE Christmas! It’s my favorite holiday ever – the decorations, the smells, the lights, the parties. But I will be the first to admit that I can quickly get caught up and end up in tears because I’m stressed out. I put way too much pressure on myself to make the season magical […]

Do you have that thing? That skill you want to learn? Place you want to visit? Service project you want to work on? Person you want to give to? Your heart feels it, but life just gets in the way. Work and other responsibilities take priority and it keeps getting pushed aside. That’s how I […]

In fact, my love of collecting items from Goodwill and yard sales, I blame purely on Ariel. “Look at this stuff, isn’t it neat? Wouldn’t you […]

Hey! I’m so grateful to be able to voice the Belk Department store commercials for the past year. They’re wonderful to work with and I happen to love shopping there, too! Here are a couple recent commercials I’ve done for them… Now I want to go buy a new outfit! ;p Have a great day! <3 Heidi […]

This was such a fun commercial to be in! Everyone I met – from Ditech professionals to production members were great to work with! Kevin Harvick was the nicest and most down to earth guy, too. It’s great to see the behind-the-scenes of companies and I can certainly vouch for Ditech and Hammerhead Entertainment. They […]
