Hello!

The aim for this website is to be a portal where the sum of online information on Voice Design can be aggregated, for the benefit of both Voice/Dialogue/VO/Speech Designers (and the Supervisors, Coordinators, and the many other names we go by!) and folks interested in starting a career working with voice inhouse in game development.
