TALENT: Mikee Joaquin
Mikee Joaquin has loads of creative flair. After making his home in Brisbane from the US, the colourful performer has developed quite a niche.
Mikee’s unique and quirky style was recently required to voice a series of e-learning videos for both Crayola and Colgate-Palmolive. While his natural rhythm and ability to move has been called upon to play the part of Dipsy… yes, the green Teletubby! His performance even made the news… watch his clips below.
And if you’re looking for an all round professional talent that’s a little left of centre, think creative. Get in touch with Mikee.
TALENT: Chris Crickmay
Looks like 2024 is going to be a busy year for Chris “Crickers” Crickmay. The vocal local has started the year with a flourish.
January presented an opportunity for Chris to be creative. He was cast in a variety of colourful roles: from playing ‘Cheshire Cat’ from Alice in Wonderland and a cameo vocal in an English murder mystery; to reminding grownups that their local cinema’s a great place to ‘lose the kids’ throughout school holidays.
And if that wasn’t enough, he’s also hosted the Gold Coast Women in business awards – all from the comfort of his home studio!
Chris does his best work behind the mic and he loves a vocal challenge. And while every session with Chris is a lot of fun, clients are quick to acknowledge his versatility, entrusting him with serious and important messages too – such as these announcements for the Gold Coast City Council.
Chris is available 24/7 and is no doubt in his booth at this very minute. Feel free to reach out at any time to join in on the fun!
Have a listen to his latest demo.
TALENT: Digby Gillings
BrisVO’s Digby Gillings has an old head on young shoulders. And although he’s been plying his trade for quite some time now, we’re very sure it’s been nowhere near 100 years. However that didn’t stop him from tripping down Memory Lane with the guys at Triple M to reflect on radio’s centenary of aural hi-jinks
Meanwhile, in the lead up to the festive season, Australian dairy company Bulla gave Digby a call to voice their latest television spot (below). While Bulla’s thickened cream passes the ‘really good’ test, Digby’s read for them was the cherry on top!
To hear more from Digby check out his demo.
TALENT: Todd MacDonald
After six years running La Boite Theatre Company as CEO and Artistic Director, then leading and programming Arts and Culture teams in city council and human services sectors, Todd MacDonald has returned to full-time voice over and acting work, with some new headshots to boot!

This unique blend allows him to infuse authenticity, and attention to detail, into every project, creating a dynamic connection with clients in corporate and commercial domains.
He has also done a tonne of non-commercial and narrative work – “I found having worked in these sectors and as an arts leader and executive trainer, really helps my VO work – I can connect well with corporate and commercial reads because I get what the client is after! It’s been exciting to get back into studios and great fun setting up my home-studio. Now that I have time to lean into my voice work, I’m really interested in doing more into character jobs and audio books, so hit me up if you’re looking for a new voice.”

WRITER: Tony Byrne

Tony Byrne loves his work. And when he’s having fun, it seems everyone at Southern Cross Austero Brisbane has fun with him.
Yellow Couriers threw him a curly challenge recently. “We want everyone singing our praises” – their brief was clear and simple.
It got Tony’s creative juices flowing.
He sat at his desk and penned a little ditty. Then he and his SCA Brisbane producer, Andrew Fritsch, hit the studio. While Tony did the bulk of the heavy lifting behind the mic, Andrew chimed in as his backup singer.
It wasn’t long before the whole floor at the open plan office started singing along.
Yellooooow!
