Exploration Sessions

Sometimes, you want to do more than just send us a script and have it recorded. Exploration sessions are available for you to be present with the cast and director. This can be done by either visiting us onsite at our recording space in downtown Seattle or teleconferencing via Skype.

What can you do with an exploration session?

  • Try out different character voices with actors, exploring ideas and subtle differences.
  • Refine the delivery of lines that benefit from more attention.
  • Guide ad-libbed performances to quickly create dialogue around chosen situations.
  • Meet the cast for your project and establish an in-person connection.

For larger recording projects, it often makes sense to start with an exploration session to reach agreement on character voices and the overall vision of the project. The actors will then apply your direction to recording the script.

Ad-libbing is an interesting option for games, in particular, where a character is expected to make various comments in response to different situations that come up. We can put one actor with strong improvisational skills on the microphone. That actor will virtually write a script for you with ad-libbing in response to prompts like “there’s a disgusting alien in front of you.”

Pricing for a one-hour exploration session:

  • Director + one actor – $295
  • Director + two actors – $395
  • Director + three actors – $495
  • Director + four actors – $595

All audio from the session is recorded and delivered via Dropbox link.

Next Steps

Please contact us by email at info@seespacelabs.com and tell us your needs. We’ll be wanting to know word count and some info about how you’d like to use the exploration session. Or just say “hello,” and we’ll take it from there.
