They are part of the voice over team for Awesome Fighter Animation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I recorded the voice overs for them for a government animation initiative series called Mend-A-Friend that is designed to help high school students talk about their issues and depression. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since Current Sound has the largest isolation room in Adelaide, the studio was a perfect choice for all the vocals to be recorded tracked at the same time with the actors all in the same room. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We had a storyboard and rough animation to sync to which was refined later. The animation was done by Levi at\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.awesomefighteranimation.com\/portfolio\/mend-a-friend\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Awesome Fighter Animation<\/a>\u00a0and the characters have the appearance of being made from felt, although it was all created digitally.
