UPDATE:
I have received a link from the game developers to the trailer which I think has a little of my vocal work in there, I'm looking forward to the main release and hope they can get the funding together.

So I did a little bit of voice work that may possibly be put onto a game, which is cool. The game is currently in development and after a call for contributions through the sound design facebook group I am part of, I undertook the recordings and put them forward for the delectation of the creators. Heres to hoping I'm lucky enough to feature. Anyhoo I recorded myself using a Shure SM58 running through my new Focusrite Saffire 6 USB into Cubase exporting a wave file at 96kHz and 24-bit for the final track which ran through a set a various cartoon like expressions. It was fun and good times!
