Profile

If you could wake up tomorrow having gained any one new ability OR quality, what would it be?
Probably buy some shares in Apple?
If you want to share >> About Me:
I'm a visual facilitator. This means I sit in meetings, workshops, conferences, with my tablet pc hooked up to a video projector. I then make paintings -- live -- of the ideas flying around the room.

I've done sessions for Ben Zander, Sun International, the Sandton Convention Centre, eBucks, the Mugg & Bean National Franchisee Conference, the Disney Institute, and more.

I come from an advertising background. I was originally a copywriter, having served time in various agencies, including Hunt Lascaris FMC. I then found myself getting loads of freelance work as a heavyweight, hiring myself out as a self-contained writer-art-director team. It was short hop into the world of filmmaking. Followed by writing and directing industrial and corporate theatre and video. I'm currently on contract to Blue Moon Custom Communications as a creative director on their VWSA and Great Basin Gold accounts.

Here's what Stef du Plessis, international public speaker, says about my visual facilitation:

During the past 15 years I have been fortunate to speak at some of the world's most prestigious conventions, where I often get to experience other talent -- both in the form of fellow speakers, as well as those who support client conventions in any of a myriad of ways. When it comes to making the most of delegate experience, Roy Blumenthal is right up there with the very best that I have ever seen. His offering is, in my view, an essential part of any event where delegate retention of the message is important. His ability to grasp the core message of any speaker, and to then do a real-time translation into a dynamic and visually pleasing key-point summary -- for immediate distribution -- is remarkable. Hire this man if you are serious about your delegates walking away with real take-home value. -- Stef du Plessis

Hi Roy, saw the feature on your work on MoneyWeb today. Just wanna say that I think you are doing a great job and, once again, I'm jealous that I can't draw.
Your role in a workshop seems like the most fun one by far!
