Medical & Pharmaceutical Narrations STAT!

Posted Sun, 09/18/2011 - 00:18 by Rory

Below is a list of some of the recent medical and pharmaceutical voice overs performed and delivered for various medical facilities, treatments, conditions, studies and innovations.

I am always honoured and humbled to be a small part of spreading the message in the evolving world of medicine, science, research & development.

‘Keep Your Head Up Kid: The Sequel’ (The Don Cherry Story)

Posted Thu, 09/01/2011 - 15:54 by Rory

This past spring I auditioned for a part in the sequel to the hugely succesful 2010 television hit, ‘Keep Your Head Up Kid – The Don Cherry Story’.

I admit that I was apprehensive when my agent notified me about the audition for the role as legendary Canadian sports broacaster Brian Williams. To play a fictitious character is one thing - to portray and pull off the part of a well known and still-breathing, actual person - quite another.

I was even more amazed when my agent called a few days later to say that I booked the part.

Dr. Professor’s Thesis of Evil – A Villainous Voice Over

Posted Thu, 08/04/2011 - 13:14 by Rory

There’s only one thing more fun than doing a character voice over. It’s doing a character voiceover of a villain! For me it’s somewhat creatively cathartic and a delicious way to vent via voice over.

I was recently cast as a voice actor for a very unique project entitled Dr. Professor’s Thesis of Evil. I was selected to do the voice of a news announcer but the main role to sink my teeth into was also a wicked military commander for which my German accent and maniacal voice acting abilities were called upon.

A Colonversation: Getting to the Bottom of a Narration

Posted Mon, 06/06/2011 - 16:15 by Rory

Weather Network Voiceover: A Ridge of High Definition Moves In

Posted Mon, 05/30/2011 - 18:29 by Rory

I have always been proud of my association with Canada’s national weather channel, The Weather Network. I was an on-camera presenter from 1998-2003 and considered myself fortunate to be part of a huge team of professionals who really knew how to produce and present a superior product televised across five time zones and in two official languages.

Movie Trailer-Style Narrations - The Gritty Voice Over

Posted Mon, 05/30/2011 - 16:18 by Rory

I once gave my friends and colleagues a good laugh when I would launch into an over-the-top voice over delivery one would normally only hear in movie trailers. You know, the larger-than-life, in-your-face, thunder-of-the-gods delivery usually associated with the likes of the late, legendary Don la Fontaine.

Posted Wed, 01/12/2011 - 19:40 by Rory

The team you see pictured here is constantly on hand in my studio to ensure I don't over exert myself in the voice over booth or strain a vocal cord when pronouncing words you can't even Tweet because they exceed the 140-character limit!

Recent Medical & Pharmaceutical narration projects included:

* FasciaDerm

* Interleukin-1β Regulation

* Rheumatoid Arthritis and Cardiovascular Disease

* Surgical Aortic Valve Repair Technologies

* COLOGUARD Cancer Screening Test

* Treatment of Testosterone Defficiency

* Evidence Based Psychiatry

Toronto Master of Ceremonies - The 10 Billion Dollar Bash

Posted Sun, 12/12/2010 - 22:22 by Rory

'Tis the season...for corporate galas. It was that time of year when I left my voice over studio to see people in person, which entailed getting dressed. Usually. And if going to all that trouble I figured why not throw on the tux and make a statement.

An exciting new MC client was Paradigm Quest/Merix Financial, celebrating 10 Billion dollars in assets under management in 2010!
