Recently Ben from Beat Tank Productions along with Mike from Meridian Nights went up to Thursday Island for 10 days to help run the ‘My Island Home’ project. We had 10 days to record 14 local artists original songs along with Neil Murray and Mau Power. The first step was a song writing workshops to help develop the artists ideas, then the recording project started where we set up a make-shift recording studio wherever we were and co-wrote and produced 14 songs. It was a huge effort for everyone involved but I think the songs came out really well. Below are some photos showing some of the crazy place we had to set up a studio and the songs so you can have a listen. Hope we can do it again as there is a tonne of talent up there!
His brand new song is titled, Island Home & is a remake of the Australian classic that was first sung by Warumpi Band and made most famous by Christine Anu.
The video was shot by Rush on location in the beautiful Torres Strait Islands.

The key to a good Voice Over recording is a clean detailed mic, a dead space and a great voice over artist. When we record voice overs, we make sure we get the delivery of several emotions from every line so that when it comes to mix time we have everything covered.
For a 30 second TV commercial, most of the time is spent getting a good sound with the microphone. once this is achieved, the script must be delivered is as many different emotions as possible to make sure the client is happy. With corporate videos, the bigger picture needs to be considered as a voice talking in the same tone and emotion for 7 minutes can be extremely boring.
