The Latest From My Blog
BlogA while ago I wrote a post about the importance of backing up your website. A somewhat timely post in my case! A few days ago, I noticed my website was down. Not a major problem – servers have glitches, and they can often go down for a few minutes here and there; but they’re…
Whenever you’re meeting a new prospect; either someone that’s requested a meeting, or someone you’ve met through a networking event, it’s important to make sure they have a great impression of you. Other than what you act like and say around them, that’s crucial, obviously; but you also want them to take away a good…
A little later than planned, I’m now ready to publish my new voicereel for 2015, featuring all new material not used before in previous reels. I hope you like it….
This is a project I recently voiced for Tap2Tag, who have created an NFC enabled medical alert bracelet designed to aid emergency services to any conditions a patient has should the worst happen. Letting first responders know any crucial medical information from the get-go could be a major life saver.
You may have noticed on your travels here that the site’s now got a completely new look to take me into 2015 and beyond. I’d decided that it was time for a refresh, given it’s looked near enough the same for about 4 years. Plus the fact that now we’re moving into an even more…

But first, let’s start with what we voiceovers do, in regards producing your recorded script. Essentially, it’s our job to bring your words to…
If you’re a bit like me, then you’ll be slightly paranoid about backups. Usually as a result of being a victim of hard drive failure and losing important material. I suffered this a few years ago. I put my trust in a certain manufacturer’s RAID drive, thought ‘Oh I’m perfectly safe with this now’ as it…
I am pleased to announce that as of this week, I have become part of the Chatterbox Voices family. Chatterbox is a voice agency based in London, and will now be your point of contact should you wish to engage me in TV commercial/promo/ident/bumper/narration gigs etc. My agent, Joanna Shiokka, will be more than happy…
How to work even more mobile The other day, I purchased something that will, I think, greatly help me work on the move for the times I don’t need/want to take my laptop with me.
