It began with a train ride from Grand Central Station in New York to Yale University in New Haven. My mission: to speak to a group of pre-Med and pre-Health students; members of a national organization called MedX, whose mission is to explore the healthcare field from an array of interdisciplinary, holistic perspectives. Objective: to pose the question: is medical narration just icing on the cake?

Our most recent project series of surgical illustrations depict the da Vinci robotic arms as they operate inside the female human body to surgically dissect the inter-vesico-vaginal space without opening the bladder dome. This preparation is necessary for the insertion of a female Artificial Urinary Sphincter – a procedure that is now entirely possible with the da Vinci robot, minimising post-operative recovery. New Standard of Excellence When we first started this surgical illustration project with a medical device company, we took the opportunity to get to know more about this amazing robot device and the people behind it. We discovered that behind the robotic surgery technology is a woman who has played an extremely important role in the development of the da Vinci robot as we know it today: New Zealand-born Catherine Mohr. It’s worth sharing her background, we always like to see women in tech at this level. The
We would like to share this excellent article on patient information recall we have come across, from Roy P C Kessels. The article points out at the difference of using videos with patients as opposed to static visuals or pictograms (or infographics) and provides some good reference for the ones involved in patient communication, still in doubt about which media should be chosen when assembling patient information. Interesting conclusions are drawn. Below an excerpt: “Memory for medical information is often poor and inaccurate, especially when the patient is old or anxious. [ ..] spoken information should be supported with written or visual material. Visual communication aids are especially effective in low-literacy patients, but video or multimedia techniques do not improve memory performance or adherence to therapy.” See the full article here https://goo.gl/uaWbZd References presented in this article are worth a quick read as well.

The truth is it’s not easy, and that’s why most voice actors shy away from this kind of work. For me, it’s challenging, educational and rewarding. But most of all, I love working with the fine artists who are illustrating the animations, creatives who care about excellence, perfectionists really, who produce stunningly beautiful work, which brings us back to the AMI Conference.

If you can't "be fully informed" after discussing this with your doctor, in his or her office, it's not likely that a 60-second ad will give you the full scope of the risks and rewards of any given treatment either.

Fast forward to my world of voiceovers, and over the last couple of years, I’ve had the opportunity to work with Christian Chinese clients and get to know some of the brothers and sisters from the congregation who direct me in our sessions. My role is to speak God’s words in a sermon-type of recital, which is sometimes nearly 10,000 words/an hour long.

As a kid, I walked down Michigan Avenue in Chicago with my family as we marched against the war in Vietnam. Once again I am finding issues that touch me, my fellow voice actors, colleagues, friends, and family, and am willing to stand up to have my Voice 'Be Heard' on our behalf.
As you know, if you're on my mailing list, and/or have been in touch via social media (@DebbieIrwinVO), I was in Japan!!! Not only was it an amazing experience, it was so different. I'm not talking about the obvious differences, language, food, etc. I'm talking about the little things that we as Americans don't seem to put much thought into.

Los gráficos son parte fundamental de los contenidos científicos. Comunican datos complejos, relaciones y tendencias que solo con números y texto serían difíciles de transmitir.
