  • Sir Christopher Lee returns as Count Dooku in my latest voice dub of STAR WARS: Tales of the Jedi! My mission was to honor the character and craft a performance with the authenticity I grew up watching from Lee. As an impressionist I had to not only evoke him but operate within the timing in the show. Twice the challenge, double the reward! I trust you’ll enjoy what I brought to the table and leave with an enjoyable experience!
    My beloved brother Chazz Ravenelle! He saved this entire project from the pits of Pandora’s Box. A literal series of unfortunate events plagued an otherwise historic impression video and he was there to stare down the Rancor every step of the way. From meticulously keying in my performance to editing it all together, he elevated every aspect of this video to a quality unheard of for dubs. Thank you for making this into a reality and for being such a positive FORCE in my life. Even when it seemed like hope was gone. As the Jedi say, may the force be with you my brother, always!

    You are remarkable. You have the depth of voice but also the slight echo within the mouth that Lee had. That’s a remarkable thing and I’m grateful that you share this with the world

      I’d completely agree with you had I dubbed the beardless Dooku in the earlier episode! That would’ve been around Lee’s “Horror” years and he did sound much younger compared to his 2000’s era films. This takes place only 10 years before Ep2 and not much changed in his voice, at least from interviews and films I cross referenced but he definitely is in his senior years here!

      0:35 They never even used Lee’s when he was alive except in TCW movie and originally he wasn’t supposed to be in that one. Originally for the Clone Wars movie Burton recorded the dialogue but since the film was theatrical they were contracted to contact the original actors to if they wanted reprise their roles for any theatrical Star Wars film and they asked Lee if he wanted to do it and he obliged.

      I appreciate the great suggestion there! I’ve always wanted to but he’s someone I couldn’t dub over. He’s perfect. HOWEVER I could do something original, like a narration or motion comic related. He is undoubtedly the voice I hear when I read anything Batman so there is a chance! Thanks again for stopping by!

    Hopefully you are back from the depths of Voice Acting shadows for longer this time. When hearing of Kevin Conroy’s recent passing, one of my first thoughts was of your “Death of Batman” fan dub. Veteran’s Day will now be a day where, alongside celebrating the birthday of a friend, this clown will cry in remembrance of a fallen hero.
