Creature vocalizations can be simple, but sometimes they require something a bit more complex than a single layer of voice. What are the possibilities offered by voice layering?

We hope this video can shed some light on this approach.

Before training for vocal stunt work in video games or movies, why should a vocal coach perform a vocal assessment with a voice talent. Is it absolutely necessary?

We hope this video can shed some light on vocal stunt performance and its craft.
