White Horse Studios and In Both Ears Establish NW as 'Voice Talent' Hub

Gives Hollywood competition by inking deals with Nintendo(R), MSN-TV, the PGA(R), and Amway Worldwide(R)

PORTLAND, Ore., May 9 /PRNewswire/ -- In Both Ears, the Northwest's exclusive "voice-only" talent agency and White Horse, a premiere interactive marketing agency with a full audio production studio, today announced a collaborative partnership that helps solidify Oregon's prominence as a hub for creative talent in the recording industry.

"Traditionally, area companies have looked to Hollywood or large 'voice' talent areas such as NY and Chicago for qualified voice talent," said Jen DeVoe, principal of White Horse Studios. "Today's announcement changes this dynamic because top talent and a premiere studio are now available right in Portland's backyard."

From voicing an animated cartoon, to a perky "teenager" who announces programs on the Fox Family Network, In Both Ears helps producers, casting directors and creative directors bring life to a wide cast of characters. This voice talent, combined with White Horse Studio's state-of-the art recording facility, provides voice artists and musicians, with an unparalleled recording operation. For example, artists such as Everclear and Pink Martini have recorded tracks in White Horse Studios, and voice artists regularly select White Horse Studios to record tracks for a variety of popular video games.

"Our collaboration sprung from a mutual desire to do great work and to serve this booming industry," states DeVoe.

Stacey Stahl, founder of In Both Ears, adds, "Most of our projects need studio production in addition to voice, so this is a perfect match. It's also rewarding to work with another Northwest company and help local and national talent break into new markets."

As part of this strategic collaboration, White Horse Studios will serve as In Both Ears' premiere audio recording facility. And the collaboration is expected to lure significant new recording work to Oregon.
