Video of the Week: ‘The Most Recognisable Voice in New York’

Continuing this week’s unintentional documentary theme, I thought it’d be nice to share a really short documentary piece I found on Vimeo. It introduces us to Charlie Pellett, the man known as the “stand clear of the closing doors guy” – the man who makes the announcements in the New York Subway System. The brief summary of Charlie’s history and how he came to be the announcement maker is shot and edited really well. I also really loved the simple and upbeat soundtrack.
Give it a watch:
