When you hire someone, you hire the whole person. Orson was so very right about the god-awful writing of the ad copy; I'd have argued it out as well, being somewhat of a stickler for the English language and the never-ending battle against poor writing. The scripts were offensive to his very being as well, and being the voice talent he obviously was, he had every right....nay, a duty! to protest the shoddy abomination that the world would know he had a hand in. That would be like having Sir Winston Churchill read bad ad copy or scripts; he'd have none of it, and either re-written it himself on the sport, or demand it be put right instanter.

I think it only seems like he has an ego since we're not getting the full story. These are just snippets of a much longer recording session. We're not seeing how (or if, to be fair) the recording team are trying to micromanage his performance. He's spot on with his criticism of the copy and the direction. For example, there was in "IN July." It was always "every July, ..." and it's awkward as hell to try to emphasize "every" at the start. It makes it seem like you're upset about the event. Just say it to your self and you'll see what I mean: _Every_ July sounds like it should be followed by "that damned Mrs. Buckley and her peas!"

I guess the point was that even if you did it would sound weird. As if you are emphasizing the idea of being the month itself rather then inside of it. It's a passage of time rather then a place to be. You can emphasize being IN the hospital and it makes sense, but you try emphasizing that you are IN 12:45pm and you sound like a lunatic.

When I went to radio college, I was astounded to find that even things from the _associated press_ had major mistakes, spelling problems, things that would throw you off I then had a job for years where I'd assembly-line read and record hundreds of little short clips a day, alternating with writing and assembling them, and the other writers would just.. frequently put zero thought into how they did it, make it so difficult to read without jumbling it up, leaving my numbers lower from all the retakes. diversity hires, natch. but not exclusively.

As funny as this is. He has a point, why _would_ you emphasize "in" instead of "July" or "beef" instead of "prairie-fed"? You emphasize "July" to show what month you are talking about. You emphasize "prairie-fed" instead of "beef" to show that the cows are fed from a prairie! I could see why this hurt his brain, it hurts mine! IN july, prairie-fed BEEF. Urg. That's not how well-constructed sentences work.

Interestingly, unlike the Paul Masson ads Orson did, the final versions of most of these are lost media. We know for a fact that he actually did finish them, and that due to him the phrase "crumb crisp coating" was changed in the final, but most of his Findus ads are now missing.

Understand that by this point in his career, Orson Wells was a living legend. Imagine taking say, Jack Nicholson into the booth to do VO for frozen food and then giving him BAD tedious notes and commentary about every minute detail. It would be super rude. Orson Wells wrote, produced, directed, and starred in the greatest film ever made. They should have been thankful that he agreed to do it at all, and left him to it. His version would have been just fine.

What’s even funnier than the transcript is the story leading up to it. Long story short, Welles tricked the directors into paying him in advance, then had them chase him all over Europe because he was pissed they asked him to audition for the commercial.

Of all the acting work I have done, the hardest work had to be voiceovers. There is no interpretation involved. You are there for the sound of your voice and the extent of your patience. The right reading was the way the client wanted it--however insane it seemed at the time. My rate in the old days was about $200.00 an hour and--at the end of two hours--I was often ready to go back to selling refrigerators and gas ranges.
