Nigel Williams: The one with the Breakfast Visualisation!
In this episode of “How do you Say That?!”, Nigel Williams joins Sam and Mark to talk about getting through long e-learning scripts, how translated scripts can be quick-quick-slow, and what do do with bowls and bowls of porridge!
We’d love you to join in and send us your version of one of the reads in today’s show – just pop it onto an mp3 and send it to podcast@britishvoiceover.co.uk
Script 1
The door to the apartment and door to the house were always open, as was the door to my father’s study room. One Sunday we were sitting in the gothic parlour of the apartment, our father was taking a nap and our dog was asleep, too. Then, when father went down to the study room, he saw that someone had broken in. The burglar had tried to open the desk with a letter opener, but it broke. When that didn’t work, the burglar went down to the basement and got a steel block; he used that block to break open the furniture and took the money.
Fortunately, none of us heard anything and the dog did not bark. That was impressive.
Script 2
This winter has been tough for a lot of people, and not everyone has access to a warm and nutritious breakfast to start the day & fuel their fire inside
That’s why Quaker is partnering with charities like FareShare, to donate up to two point five million warm breakfasts to communities across the UK who need it
Pick up your promotional pack of Quaker Oats and each purchase means another hot breakfast donated.
