Topline AI
I'm Rob Delport, based in the vibrant City of Cape Town, South Africa. I have a diverse skill set that spans film, entertainment, video editing, and storytelling, complemented by over 30 years of experience in various roles, including professional acting and journalism. Currently, I work as a Journalist for iDiski Times and have held significant positions such as RSA Head Researcher at Sports Interactive and Football Journalist for South African Soccer. My educational background includes a diploma in Graphic & Digital Design and training in Drama from the Waterfront Theatre School. Fluent in English, I also have a passion for African football, which has been a constant theme throughout my career. I thrive on creating engaging narratives in both media and sports, drawing from my extensive experience in the industry.

      As far back as I can remember, I had an obsession with stats, and details, and in particular with South African football. As a kid I was able to find an outlet for this extensive research through changing data in video games, at first just for my own personal use, and later in life, in the professional arena, for those very same video games' companies.I have also assisted where I can in the real world, both in media and the football world.
