Remote DIRECTED Voiceover Sessions

Remote directed sessions differ from live sessions in that it is not a direct studio-to-studio connection.

The recording is made at my studio at full quality.

Using a variety of platforms that you might already know, it’s possible to listen in and direct the session as necessary.

I send the studio quality recording after the session.
