Check out this new Unlock Audio article on the vocal casting and direction we did for upcoming title “ROT in a Porcelain Dream” by Yamo Studios! It was a delightful challenge helping craft performances speaking a new greek-inspired fantasy language, and lots of fun beasties and humanoid folk of various shapes, sizes, and timbres. The icing on the cake was Michelle Thomas, who designed the vocal effects to make this sound otherworldly, and as in the title, like a ‘Dream.’ Continue reading →
