It’s All Go!

In the office / studio shared by me and my voiceover colleague, Rich Sweetman , it really is all go. And to celebrate this fact, we’ve made an animation series to give our fans an insight into our crazy, showbiz world.

hi. the voices are synthasysed aren't they? i use at least one of them on my computer, its called scansoft daniel. the other one is lucy or something like that. i don't know, but i've got them both on my computer. i don't think Emma's voice sounds like the female computerised voice anyway. well, correct me if i'm wrong there.

Well, I hope they're synthesized. I hope there aren't actual people out there with voices like that, the poor buggers. I can categorically confirm that my voice isn't my voice, if you see what I mean. And Sweetman hasn't voiced the Sweetman voice either. Unless he's lied to me and his Wednesday morning 'prior recording engagement' was not what it seemed... But no. It's not us. Promise.
