  • Julia Gillard soundboard prank calls!

    Hello!

    With only two days until the federal election, I thought I’d give Prime Minister Julia Gillard a helping hand by impersonating her electronically and calling some “Working Australians”…

    Julia Gillard Soundboard Prank Calls!

    It’s been quite a busy couple of weeks getting this stunt off the ground. Thanks to producer Tim Cuthell for begging me to do some more prank calls and getting the ball rolling. Thank you to the team at SYN for supporting my idea and getting the tech guy to come in last week to alter the control panel in the production studio that allowed me to actually make these calls. And thanks to Charles and Luke from Get Cereal. It was a real pleasure this morning. The most fun I’ve had on radio in quite some time.

    My guest appearance is now a regular thing. Tune in every Thursday 8:30am to hear me goofing around and paying my dues with David M. Green’s Community Service! Or go here to listen to past material.

    Kind regards,
    David M. Green

  • Showreel… or “Showreel Parody?” You Decide.

    Greetings TO you (emphasis on the delivery of the greeting, rather than on whoever you are… not that I don’t appreciate your gesture coming here and reading my blog. Kid, you’re alright.),

    Just above as you can clearly see (unless you don’t have flashplayer… or you’re blind, but then you couldn’t read this so I don’t know why I’m even preparing for that possibility) is an embedded YouTube video. And that particular video is my (David M. Green’s) showreel, demonstrating my TV-presenting and comic abilities. I made it last year through TV Pro-Global (they filmed it and edited it. I wrote and presented it). At times I can’t remember if I was making a proper showreel or a parody of one… hehe, man I’m funny though!

    So if you’re a TV executive or similar, feel free to let me host/present your programme/commercial/corporate function/political campaign rally/friend’s wedding. On the other hand… if you’re just a regular sap like me, try to imagine ME hosting a teen hype show… now that’s comedy!

    Kind regards,
    David M. Green
    I’ll show you my showreel if you show me yours… your fishing reel would also be acceptable.
