Recent work includes narrating a national internet training resource aimed at 8 year olds.[When I was 8 we were shown short films about science and the v/o had a warm yet engaging tone that I drew on for this UK wide project - you can hear it on the front end of my audio showreel - clip 2 "Move the Cursor..."]

Providing the Voice of Beethoven’s Ghost and a range of other character roles for multimedia game [ I had to create a range of voice characters across a range of ages - Beethoven as a boy, his Ghost, his nephew, his father, his father's drunken friends, and Napoleon aged 30 - good fun!]

Links for BBC radio Wales [They wanted some zany retro US announcer type accents for their featured Saturday Night Dance party show]

The Voice of the magical Pinata for the Microsoft X-Box UK TV commercial[This was originally going to be voiced with an English RP accent, then the ad agency decided to switch to a US accent mid session and I rewrote the last few lines of the ad and it all just came together - good fun too!]

Voices for the Discovery Channel [many different voice to picture reads - english translation reads requiring differing tones, temperaments and voicings]

Acting work – Film: The Libertine starring Johnnie Depp and John Malkovich – Role: Lord and Brothel owner. Also lead role in reconstruction for BBC 4:TV plus many more roles as listed on my website www.julesmedia.biz
