I can provide online voice overs via mp3, which can be emailed as attachments, but this is suitable for the shorter work. I would then leave the client to edit and perfect the recording as he wishes.
For longer work, such as audio and narration, I can hire a studio locally.
David Osborne is a successful barrister, actor, author, media personality and public performer. In 1991 he hit the headlines nationwide and made legal history when he delivered his final speech to the jury entirely in verse. For this tour de force he was dubbed the Barrister Bard.
He followed this with the publication of a short humorous book on advocacy entitled No Holds Barred written under the pseudonym of Ivor Bigg-Wigg QC.
Since then he has appeared on television and radio, most recently on BBC TV, Sky News and RTE, and has written numerous articles of topical legal interest for the press and various journals.
He has also written and presented two legal revues, both to full houses. He is an accomplished keynote and after dinner speaker.
