Recent Projects
Tubi Advertising Campaign
Serge De Marre recently lent his voice to a national campaign in the United States for Tubi, a major streaming platform and competitor to Netflix. This project was characterized by a humorous and multilingual tone, showcasing Serge's talent for engaging a wide audience while respecting the brand’s identity. The recordings were done remotely via Source-Connect from his studio in Houston, while the client was in New York and the session was managed by Wave Studios in NYC.
Tubi was looking for a male voice, aged 40 to 60, with a distinct European accent but not British (the accent could be German, Scandinavian, Spanish, or any other European accent). They wanted a soothing and mature voice with character, reminiscent of luxury brand or high-end fragrance commercials. The tone needed to be semi-hypnotic, sophisticated, and convey a certain elegance.
