Nick Bolton
By day Nick is Head of Marketing at Australia’s leading online video technology provider, Viocorp. The company’s Viostream platform is used by Film Victoria, Inside Film, Popcorn Taxi, Sydney Film Festival, and many more corporate and government organisations.
Nick is the founder of Actors Anonymous, the networking and collaboration group for writers, actors, and directors working mainly in theatre. As an actor Nick has appeared in over 15 short films, over a dozen stage plays, and numerous TV commercials. He presents regularly for corporates and performs the occasional voiceover when a British voice is needed.
Nick has produced three theatre shows; namely, The Journey into Sin, Crime Scenes, and Bondi Dreaming. The last is set to return in September 2009.
At Nick’s last Choc Tops appearance in May 2006, his fevered excitement on such things as MySpace was greeted with blank faces. Facebook and Twitter didn’t even exist then. The content creation and distribution models have since been turned upside down. Nick attended MIPTV, the international market for interactive media content, in Cannes this April. He will talk about the new business models currently in vogue and illustrate them with case studies.
