Tom Valcanis BA, MComnMediaSt - Freelance journalist, media consultant and writer
Crushtor Media Services is the name of my comprehensive and forward thinking freelance journalism, copywriting and media consultancy business. I believe that the media is a wide ecological network that requires a keen perception and ability to navigate its amorphous terrain. I don't believe in telling you what areas of the media I am well versed in - the media is a culture all into itself that are the extensions of our being, thought and senses. Like an engineer, it is my job to articulate these artificial limbs to their peak efficiency and performance.
I have a keen nose for news, features and reviews and an eagle eye for the sharpest and most effective electronic and print copy that can be produced on the tightest of deadlines, providing the quickest of turnarounds with the most astonishing results. My formal education (Bachelor of Arts and Master of Communication and Media studies) has only strengthened my industry experience, putting solid theory into exemplary, world-class practice. Creativity and a thorough understanding of timeliness, audience and ecology is not only a hallmark of the public relations trade, but to all facets of media and communication.
My media consultancy stretches the definition of traditional marketing and communication. I can assist in tailoring a comprehensive strategy from liaising through contacts web development, content creation and management as well as app authoring, social media training and more.
We can all harness the power of the media to achieve our goals. My business is testament to that hypothesis. All my clients are given the opportunity to communicate their special product or service to the world using my skills in tandem with their ideas and visions.
