I just wrapped up narrating two documentary projects. Both along similar lines. Enemy lines, if you will. The common theme of both productions is World War II. The first is titled ‘ROHNA CLASSIFIED’. In 1943, a radio-guided German missile sunk an Allied troop carrier, claiming the lives of over a thousand American soldiers. It was…
The theme of this update: Amazing women who made an incredible impact. Jane recently celebrated her 90th birthday and is still going strong! Peggy would have celebrated her 100th in two weeks. She never slowed down! While she’s no longer with us her legacy lives on within Toronto’s Irish community. And even more so, within my…
Well, that’s another dozen pages from the calendar! Here’s wishing you the best in the next series of page-turners. ‘Tis the season for festive celebrations, food, and family. And, ‘tis the fifth season for Family Feud Canada. I’m as tickled as a kid on Christmas morning to return as show announcer once again for the iconic game show, hosted…
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.

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…

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…
