    Budding Film Director Here

    Just cut my first video and published on YouTube at https://youtu.be/VVA75WAm_tg Not sure I'll be hired for the next Bond film but its a start on my new approach to marketing Its a silent video until I can get someone with a nice voice for the job as my Geordie accent doesn't come across as I'd want for the international audience More to follow on open data and other subjects when the zero budget and time allows

    Looks good, congrats!

    Why not use a generated voice like some other youtubers, who don't like or want their own voice on their vids?

    Seriously, look into it - as a silent video is rarely popular - maybe subtitle/annotations if you don't want any voice?

      I'll offer my services (for a reasonable fee). My voice has been heard in a couple of blockbusters* maybe 15+ years ago.

        Dat's cool but... wouldn't it be worth spending a bit of time on your webpage first?

          You should be getting plenty of voiceover work now Dale Winton has gone surely?

            With zero budget I can't afford your services. Looking into simulated voice overs at the moment

              possibly for us more mature viewers can I suggest you go for a slightly larger font and aim at HD 1080 resolution to show complex text.

                Looks more exciting than most of the carp on TV these days.

                  Why is your avatar a rabbit when your nickname is Tazdevil?

                    The one's i've heard are crap. Can't you apply for some arts council funding on account of your disability, get an English speaker to voice it up? Or, if you tell me what you want saying, I can have a word with Andrew's girls - there's not much they won't do for cash.
