Professional practice

Voice-led production, from the room to the final mix.

Dom works across recording, direction, casting, post-production and studio operations. The common thread is spoken performance: understanding what the production needs, creating the right conditions in the room, and carrying the work through with technical detail and experienced judgement.

Voice & dialogue recording

Performance-led recording for animation, ADR, games dialogue, voiceover, radio, advertising, podcasts, narration and spoken-word production.

Voice direction & casting

Full voice direction, creative performance guidance within director-led sessions, and end-to-end casting—from the initial brief and talent search through auditions, selection and booking—for animation, games and other voice-led productions.

Audio post, editing & mixing

Detailed dialogue editing, cleanup, speech restoration, sound design, mixing and delivery for radio, television, advertising, podcasts and screen work.

Studio leadership

Leadership across session planning, complex estimates, technical workflows, team development and client support within a busy multi-studio environment.

Creative · technical · operational

A broad studio role built around sound judgement.

Dom’s work sits between the creative, technical and operational sides of production. He can move from the detail of a performance or edit to the wider questions around workflow, scheduling, technical setup, delivery and the people needed to make a session work well.

That range has been developed inside a busy commercial studio environment, where good engineering is only part of the job: productions also depend on communication, preparation, adaptability and the ability to make experienced decisions quickly when the brief or the room changes.

Selected work

Long-running relationships, not just credits.

Credits show where someone has worked. Repeat productions reveal something more: trust, continuity, familiarity with casts and creative teams, and the ability to keep delivering as projects and expectations evolve.

Long-running animation dialogue recording

Peppa Pig

Dom has recorded dialogue for Peppa Pig since 2007, building detailed familiarity with its cast, characters, production rhythms and creative teams across a long-running relationship.
