movie trailer voice-over effect

the unfortunate truth is that those people have "the Voice", THAT is the secret.

you could play around with pitch shifting, doubling, EQing, etc, but if you don't have a rich voice, you're not going to be able to duplicate someone like Don LaFontaine

Is it possible that Garageband can be configured to create the movie trailer-like voiceover effect?

I always wanted to know how to do it as it would have a big impact when moviemaking. What other good voiceover settings can be created that are just like those in Hollywood movies?

If I were you, I'd start by recording something (with your face close to the microphone for " proximity effect" - which deepens your voice) along the lines of...

"In a place FAR away, and a time before LIGHT, when CHAOS ruled the Earth, ONE MAN emerged to change things... FOREVER!!! And that man was <insert name of man here>."

Then, I'd add some effects... compression, reverb, pitch change (maybe), etc.

Then, after you get that to sound about right, all that's left is to make the movie.
