Oh sure, there are cool voice-over gigs. But the coolest would be roles like Mission Impossible where I dispatch orders to an elite agent of espionage…or the disembodied voice of Charlie laying out the gameplan for his “Angels”…or even KITT instructing the Hoff from behind the dashboard of the Knight Rider. Well, my day has finally come. As the voice to relay the scenario to…
My vocation has me recording in small booths. That recording will then be edited to use in a radio or TV commercial, or for a corporate narration such as a medical procedure or eLearning project. Sometimes the recording is used for events like awards dinners or conferences. Occasionally, the client requests that the announcements are done live, side stage, during the…
How Your Business Can Benefit from Using Voiceovers Voiceover narrations with a defining voice can serve as a secret weapon for businesses looking to engage with their target market, establish brand authority and develop a loyal client base. This is a great time for your business to investigate the advantages of voiceover if you…
I hope you’ve been keeping well. It’s been a while. I’ve been trying to process how to reach out and stay in touch in a seemingly endlessly depressing news cycle. Let’s face it, the pandemic has been a large slice o’ surreal. And just when we thought there was light at the end of the tunnel, that…
Hope you’ve been keeping well during this peaceful, calm, sane and wonderfully stable period in the history of mankind. Thanks for tolerating another quarterly update. While I attempt to exude an attitude of gratitude on a regular basis nothing beats a little annual reminder. Cue the turkey. Ahh, Thanksgiving. Our friends in the US celebrate the festive autumn…
For this voice-over/acting update I’d like to take you into the zone. Over the past 15 months I realize most of us have been zoned out in a world more like the Twilight Zone. But, if we can use a football metaphor for the pandemic, it appears, in North America at least, we’re in the end zone. You get…
It’s been quite a ride since St. Patrick’s Day 2020. However, there’s light at the end of the Covid tunnel. (Ed. note: I’m not sure if Daylight Saving Time factors into that but I think we can get vaccinated an hour earlier (?) Spring is on our doorstep ~ and hope springs eternal. Hopefully you’ve been keeping safe…
In 15 years of sending these updates never has the sentiment “I hope this finds you well” been more meaningful. My previous update was at the beginning of summer as Covid restrictions were being eased and people were eager to get outside post-lockdown. It was cabin fever on a global scale. MINI USA wanted to…
So, what do you think of 2020 so far? We’re almost at the halfway mark and I haven’t determined if the glass is half-empty, half-full or just fully nuts. Remember the nuttiest news of early 2020 was Planters killing off Mr. Peanut during the Superbowl?! But I digress. Transition to the “New Normal” has affected all industries and demographics –…
Warm wishes for a wonderful holiday season. From our little (?) elves, Dillon (12) and Teaghan (14) to you and yours. We hope it’s a happy time spent with family and friends. Let’s face it though, family can sometimes be a delicate balance. One minute you’re all hugs and festive cheer, the next minute you’re in a giant…
