Elocution Training
Friday, May 26, 2017
Primarily for those who may not be familiar with the word elocution which from Latin stems from eloqui to eloquence. This means expertise and metier in art of speech, delivery and voice modulation. Major accentuation of an elocutionist is on delivered of speech, prose or rendition of poetic verses. Art of eloquence implies correct stresses on words by rise to gradual crescendo followed by attenuation to a diminuendo. The elocutionist is trained to render a piece of unseen prose and a poem with lucidity with emphasis on pronunciation, frequency modulation so as to leave an indelible impression on the listeners.
Right from my school days we were taught by English teachers from British Council and Saint Marys. Radiant Reading and books of English history were taught during the 60s. Major emphasis was laid on correct usage of words, pronunciation with a British accent and eloquent delivery. In those halcyon days hat debates ad declamation contests were organised regularly to prepare students for impromptu off the cuff speeches.

Voice Over Artist
Tuesday, May 23, 2017
For those who might not be conversant with this terminology voice over is technique in which person delivers a presentation, narration/commentary on augmenting the script of a film, TV, or a documentary. This is normally pre-recordedby seasoned voice over artists to narrate events, topographical details, cover news events and as narrators for series like National Geographic, Discovery and Animal Planet.
History and Geographic Channels makes extensive use of voice overs in epitomizing epoch making events of the past coupled with graphic details of nature at its best. The name that immediately strikes one is nonetheless legendary octogenarian Sir David Attenborough.
Another dimension where voice over has made deep ingress is animated films, cartoons, TV advertising and dubbing in films. Even sports commentary is done by voice over artists watching TV on their couches.
Educational programmes of lengthy nature are recorded by voice over artists in making educational DVDs. Voice over artistes need to have a coherent voice and a lucid expression. Clientele generally specifies certain parameters for selecting artists like, age of voice, type of accent and nature of assigned task. Price range is also depicted.
Voice articulation is of significant value to mimic and imitate roles of artists. It requires practicing intonation varying tempo so as to build a steady crescendo followed by a gradual diminuendo.Breath control is also equally important during recording demos. That is inflection in one’s style. A more conversationalist style is preferred.
Voice over in the recent past is an industry which has me resounding success and demand with a vast potential to further mushroom.
I have vast experience spread-eagled over 5 decades in field of elocution, commentary, presentations master of ceremony, soliloquy dramas and prose. My metier and forte has been compering, English dramatics and sports commentator of all sports.

26th Corps Commander Golf Open Championship 5-7 May 2017
The conduct of the competition was par excellence. Kudos and accolade for the gunners for their superb conduct. Pace of play was swift with no hold ups. Procedure at par 3 call holes was stringently observed. Rules committee did a good job monitoring and rambling on the course. There were no hiccups and snags. Special events for junior golfers were also staged to bolster golf amongst the young aspirants. Talent hunt needs to be geared. There is a need to have rules & etiquette seminars to infuse and instill familiarity with the games rulings and decisions. Panel of referees must be formed at PGA and PGF level to monitor all events.

Schadenfreude
Monday, May 8, 2017
In this article I wanted to carve a deduction relative to the moral retrogression, hatred, and anger so pre-dominant in our societal strata. Schadenfreude is a passive and hidden emotion which is seen generally in people who are victims of neglect, depression and suffering. In our society this trend has propelled to new heights. A feeling of hatred and callousness to the point of stoicism (No feeling) has reached dangerous levels. Intolerance and bigotry has given vent to lynching a mob rule. The public are devoid of emotion in witnessing a mob lynching innocent persons in the garb of religion. Public derive immense pleasure in recording such ghastly and dastardly acts for sake of money. This gives the impression that we are reverting back to age of barbarism where punishments like drawing, hanging and quartering were witnessed gleefully.

Swimming Gala 20015
This event has been unique as it was staged at night under floodlights for the first time. This really added a touch of grandeur, splendor with a carnival atmosphere.
Swimming, ladies and gentlemen has always been a highly popular sport during summer season at the Gymkhana. This year a new dimension was added in the form of diving and water polo. Water polo gained immense popularity amongst all segments of members and has achieved semblance of permanence in future.
Swimming is the best form of aerobic, cardio vascular exercise. It is one sport, which starts from the age of one till 100. For the young it is ideal for development / expansion of chest, suppleness of body and for an upright posture. It infuses and instills confidence, endurance breath control and speed. Swimming is a blend of synchronization of arms / legs movement articulated by proper breathing techniques like trickle / explosive breathing. Diving and turning still continues to be appalling and a weak link, which warrants appropriate corrective actions. Diving classes are also being planed next month.
