MY FIRST LECTURE
In October, I was invited to speak at 'The Imaging Days', a conference for audio producers who create radio station branding - or imaging. On stage, I talked about my experience in this niche voiceover discipline, and off stage I voiced some of the events video packages, including the top and tail of this clip. #audioimaging #2014 #male #commercial #video #voiceartist #identity #jingles #heart
A HEARTY WELCOME
I'm the 'station voice' of the UK's biggest radio brand, Heart. It recently expanded to cover even more of the UK, and this is short excerpt of the launch sequence that played in new territories like Yorkshire, Manchester, Wales and central Scotland. With a little help from Gary Barlow and Emma Bunton! #cnn #voice #voiceover #voiceartist #video #uk #male #radio #heart #imaging
INTRODUCING, TELEVISION!
About ten times month I voice live continuity announcements for Channel 5 - it shows the likes of Neighbours, Big Brother and NCIS. It has a news bulletin, which is a great please to fill your eyes with lots of teal, magenta and carribean blue. Unfortunatley there's no Sunset Beach on Channel 5 these days. God I wish there was. #channel5 #video #voiceover #voice #branding #continuity #tv
TELLY TALKING TIE-UP
There's a salesperson somewhere who's getting a nice bonus this month, after initiating this commercial dalliance between Channel 5 and Britain Telecoms. Both are beasts of thier art, and it's pleasant to be a part of this off-guard playful lick-around. Like media felines they tumble in the whispy grasses of the tellyangeti national park. Chomp on this voiceover. #bt #tv #voiceover #voiceartist #video #voice #channel5
DENIM DEMO
Ahh, Carnaby - it ain't what it used to be. Not that I ever went there when it used to be. Oh the demise of everything. Pepe Jeans are still there mind. They might even be one of the thoroughfares longest renting inhabitants. Walking past their store recently reminded me of this little voiceover job from a couple of years back. Will I ever be this cool again? I doubt it. #voiceover #video #voice #corporate #jeans #webvideo
FROM CLASSICAL TO ROCK
My first venture into VO's involved branding radio stations. I've voiced for a number of UK brands including Kiss, Heart, Key103 Manchester and BRMB. Audio imaging as it's known, remains my strong point, and vocally, I still seem to suit a wide variety of genres's - with the right production of course! So, thanks to George Taylor at Wise Buddah for reaslising this little demo that seamlessly ventures from classical, through to pop, dance and hard rock - in 45 seconds. Sweet.
THE BRIT AWARDS 2014
Outside the UK, this pop music industry back-slap-a-thon is shown on BBC Entertainment. The team in Singapore created a rather funky animation to advertise this years night of self-congratulatory schmooze. And I did some talking. #voiceover #voiceartist #video #voice #bbc #britawards #2014 #promo
BEDROOM TAX: CALM CLEAR CORPORATE
Tower Hamlets wanted to use a web video voiceover to clearly explain the implications of the Spare Room Subsidy. This public information film lets residents know what the coalition has lined up for them, and using the term 'bedroom tax', hints at their postion on the matter. #webvideo #voiceover #voiceartist #video #voice #onlinevideo #news #corporate
