Responsible for Spalk's commentary talent and operations in Europe. Helping sports leagues, networks, and OTT platforms in reducing production costs, growing fan engagement, and simplifying live commentary production workflows.
Working with sports leagues, federations, and OTT platforms to help with reducing production costs and growing fan engagement.
As Spalk's Talent Coordinator I am responsible for: -Scheduling and preparing our commentators for events and making sure that they have all the information they need to create high-quality coverage. -Growing our COMMENTATOR MARKETPLACE. Connecting with experienced and budding commentators located everywhere in the world, ensuring high-quality candidates and onboarding them to our platform. Our talent marketplace connects sports leagues/networks with professional commentators. This is a powerful tool for content owners as it allows them to have access to a wide variety of commentators to customize their live stream, no matter what sport, language or gender. Professional commentators get more attention through the marketplace which leads to more exciting opportunities to commentate. -Be the point of contact for all our commentators and help them with any questions or feedback.
Spalk has developed software that improves the commentary of sports. The Virtual Sportscasting Studio makes it possible for sports leagues and networks to have their commentators call games from the comfort of home, which saves them immense production costs. Furthermore, we allow content owners to add multiple commentators to their existing live stream. With this option, they can publish multiple streams that are highly customized for a specific audience and enhance the viewer experience. I have the privilege to be able to work in a broad field at Spalk. Areas I work in include: -Event management: I do the research for new commentators, reach out to them and schedule them and our team for upcoming events. -Sales: I help to find potential clients and reach out to them. Moreover, I am growing our reach into the Esport market. -Marketing/Branding: I create content and develop strategies to grow our reach.
Mika Timing focuses on delivering excellent time keeping at marathons. We are operating mainly in europe but you can find us in most countries of the world. A lot of the biggest and most famous Marathon events use Mika Timing for precise time keeping. I was able to visit a lot of european countries(e.g Swizz, England, Netherlands) and most German cities, because we had to be present at the event to be able to measure time.
I started playing Battlefield 4 from the release and soon participated in the ESL in 5v5 and 8v8 tournaments. I also reached place 6 in sniper rifle kills in the German scoreboard and place 15 with points per minute.
