Hello there, Lately I've been back in the HOT seat for HOT 102.7FM, South Africa's fastest growing radio station. Ever since I jumped on board with this exciting new Joburg radio station last year, they have gone from strength to strength, being nominated for and winning awards across the globe, including one for Best Imaging...just saying. It's kind of a coincidence. I've been having a blast topping up their freshest imaging from my home studio in Ireland's garden county and hearing it played back to me by friends in SA or online - I suppose that is the beauty of living and working via tech these days. You can be anywhere. It's nice to know that even while the rain pounds the windows outside my studio today in Ireland, at least my vocal chords are soaking up some delicious South African sun. Lekker! To hear some of the best old school and R&B sounds, and our award-winning imaging, click here.

A new Film Network Ireland Wrapchat episode of mine is coming out shortly in which I interview an inspiring woman with a career that has seen many twists and turns along the way, and that she has faced with resiliency and creative will.
But before that one's released, here's a throwback to an interview I did with another inspiring woman, Irish actress Eva Birthistle. LISTEN HERE! It's the time of year for a spruce up, so I decided to freshen up my voice-over demo with thanks to the lads at Mutiny, Art Skehan & Mark Richards.
Lots of lovely new stuff shining through here. Have a listen if you're so inclined, via my agency website, Volcanic Talent. Just lovely! Michael Gubbins (pictured) lead our panel on The Good, The Bad and the AI at this year's Fís TV Summit, organised by Ardán.
Alongside myself, Jennifer Davidson of the Writers Guild of Ireland, Antony Nilan of Virgin TV and Abigail Rekas of the University of Galway got into the nitty gritty of the ways this technology can help and/or hinder us. It was a fantastic talk and a great event and I was delighted to be part of it.
I'll be at the 7th annual FÍS TV Summit this Thursday (Imbolg no less) with thanks to the lovely people at Ardán.
I'll be part of a panel, chaired by Michael Gubbins, discussing #AI in the television industry. The Good, The Bad and the AI. What side of the coin are you on? Kerry Ehrin is international speaker this year, too. Maybe I'll catch you there... New Year 🤝 New Collaboration
I'm kicking off the year as the new voice of Staycity Aparthotels. Next time you're listening to the radio or booking your stay with them you'll have my voice in your ear telling you all about their delicious beds and general greatness, recorded magically via virtual session with both my Wicklow home studio and Grand Central Recording Studios in London meeting in harmonious airwaves somewhere above the Irish sea. I'm delighted to be working on this project thanks to Alex Cameron Ward, the team at KesselsKramer London, and Olga Pull of Staycity Aparthotels. P.S. They have a little sale on if you're in the mood for a nice little city break for yourself. You deserve it sure, it's January. https://www.staycity.com/ Wishing all visitors a very merry Christmas and a restful break. Hope to see you on the other side, refreshed and ready for 2024. (Well, by about February at least). In the meantime, take care and be well. P.S. here's a little something to warm your cockles this holiday season. I spoke to Sonal Rupani, the go-to source on the latest news in the world of tech and futurism, in Dubai for her podcast, The Reboot. Here's a overview of what we chatted about: "Sonal speaks to voice over artist Remie, whose voice was cloned using artificial intelligence. She signed a contract, allowing her employer to use it forever, but there are questions around the ethics and fairness of such an agreement." Enjoy! I spoke to Gavin O'Connor for Film Network Ireland's industry Podcast, Wrapchat. We talked about making a viable career as an actor, being a people person, and being recognised on the street. A great one for anyone trying to make it as a creative. Enjoy! |
