Voiceover Recording and Production

Finding the right voice is one thing, recording it right is another. Timber has a top-of-the-line voiceover studio available for client projects to make your great voice sound brilliant. To add an extra layer of brilliance, we have experienced producers and designers available to add those bells ‘n’ whistles.

Voice Directing

If you’ve spent hours working on a script, chances are you have been hearing things a certain way in your head. Voice direction can assist in communicating those creative desires to the voice talent hired and even unlock possibilities you didn’t consider.

Even the most experienced voice talents benefit from working in a directed session.

Using someone in your production that has no experience whatsoever in voiceover? Psst. It’s harder than “talking in front of a mic”! A voice director can help to guide the performance to get the desired results.

Voice Casting

Your time is valuable and should spent doing the things that require your personal finesse. Casting voices for a production is an in-depth process that has more hurdles than you might expect. You’ll find yourself wading through the multitude of talent websites online, and if you decide to use an online casting site – dealing with the mixed bag of voice overs that you’ll find there.

We have a network of hundreds of professional voiceover talent that can deliver quality work for your project. Whether you want a voiceover professional from Canada or an international VO – we can help.

Sound Design

Timber Sound Productions has experts in the science and art of sound design. Don’t let brilliant visuals, game design or storytelling be let down by a poorly executed soundscape. We’ve got you covered.

Original Music Composition

The right musical expression at the right time helps to communicate all of the subtext that YOU know you want to be in a scene, but can be difficult to tactfully convey with words and picture alone. When everything comes together, it suddenly FEELS right – and that’s no accident. We specialize in crafting original music that eliminates the guesswork and targets your specific direction the first time.

Music Supervision

“Exploring Options” doesn’t have to be desperation tactic. A curated music search provides a hand-picked variety of options that allows you to see your production from new perspectives and can help hone your vision of the perfect ‘feel’, while providing access to music by composers and producers that have become (or are en route to becoming) household names.

Game Music Systems

Modern game scoring tools have elevated the craft with options that go beyond ‘background’ loops. Engage your players and give them cinematic agency within your world with a custom music system built to enhance your game design and give natural feeling reactive and proactive information to the player in real time.

Game Audio Implementation

You’ve built a game and we can help bring it to life with some marvellous sound. We’d love to partner with you to make your game’s world as immersive as it can be.
