Our own Seibertron.com Twincast/Podcast member jON3.0 (aka voice actor Jon Bailey) has gone viral! Jon recently teamed up with Break and Kevin Brueck for the "Epic Movie Trailer Voice Prank", which you may have already seen running wild on the various social media outlets. The video has caught the eye of ABC News which will be interviewing Jon tomorrow morning to talk about the video embedded below! It's not Transformers news, but it's always nice to see a member of the Seibertron.com family making a splash!

This week Kevin teams with Jon Bailey, voiceover actor for Honest Trailers, to make real life trailers using people on the street.

Congratulations, that's wonderful news!

Off to set the DVR to record tomorrow's Good Morning America.

Also that video is hilarious.

Congrats Jon!

This video is freaking hilarious

The notoriety is well deserved!

Also, to steer this in a more Transformers-related direction, here's another Honest Trailers gem from Jon, spoofing the 2007 Transformers movie:

That's actually the previous Honest Trailers voice. I started with LOTR. I'm betting we'll be doing Transformers 3 sometime closer to Transformers 4 being released. I'm hoping to convince them of letting me do Prime's voice for the narration.

My apologies!

I just spent an hour watching these trailers... a DOTM one in an Optimus voice would completely shatter my sanity.

Congrats Jon. You deserve the recognition and so much more. You are talented and hilarious. I love your vids.

"Are you talking to yourself?"

"Yeah."

"Oh, okay."

That killed me.

Won't be able to watch the "Good Morning America" episode until this evening when I get home.

For those who missed it

Okay, I am officially confused. I watched my DVR recording of this morning's GMA episode (the whole two hours of it), and did not see this bit featuring Jon in it anywhere. What happened?

@LOST thanks for the link

A couple days ago, we reported that Seibertron podcaster and professional voice actor jON3.0 was given the chance to be interviewed by ABC News for his work on Break's viral video, "Epic Movie Trailer Voice Prank". Unfortunately, his interview was cut from the initial broadcast on television. However, his interview with ABC News can be seen online at Good Morning America Live on Yahoo! The interview can be seen below:

"In a world, where awesome voice talents get bumped by pizza burgers. jON3.0 stars in: "Aw, come the f#ck on! Rated WTF"

No wonder it wasn't in the episode when it aired. Real sorry to hear about your time on the air being cut out, Jon. Keep doing what you do best and let's hope you get another chance (and many more chances) to have your face on national television.

GAH! You're so lucky Jonny boy!

Hahaha Keep up the good work man, I'm a big fan of your work!

Great exposure for Jon and pretty hilarious!
