We're always ready for the inevitable last-minute changes and the urgent requests. When the main studios are busy, the Project studio is perfect for recording pick-ups and making alterations in time to meet your deadlines.
The workstation is equipped with the same ProTools rig as in all our studios. The voice booth comes in handy for recording demos and auditions and for linkups using ISDN or Source-Connect to other studios around the globe. It is also our casting studio and is available for checking through our music and sound effects libraries.Casting
Casting can be key to producing a track that's out of the ordinary. We thrive on sourcing voice artists who can breathe life into words and then add that extra bit of magic. We have built up an extensive bank of voice artists and we're always discovering new talent.We're more than happy to get involved at the concept stage of your scripts. Have a chat to us about the type of voices you have in mind and how you'd like the words expressed. Do you want a voice that can spice up the words or instil a sense of authority, or quirkiness?
Global linkups

Utilise our ISDN or Source-Connect facilities to record digital-quality sound from studios around the world. It means you can cast a genuine Cockney in London, a tough guy in the Bronx or an Italian mama in Rome and come into our studio to record and produce the track.If your favourite voice artist happens to be interstate or overseas, there's every chance we'll be able to find a studio they can visit to record your track via linkup to us. If you're out of town, your track can still be recorded at our place.

Kate has been a producer in audio post production since 2004. But her interest dates back even further. Coming from a family that has worked in the industry for many years, she's been learning about both audio and video production from a young age. It means Kate is totally at home with the language of the advertising industry and understands the whys and wherefores of the agency producer's role.

Sound Designer / IT Support
Sandy entered the sound world through analog vibrations, picked up by a stylus, transferred to a diaphragm then amplified through a pre-amp. This in turn inspired him to gain a sound knowledge of these vibrating air molecules by completing a Diploma of Technical Production at RMIT University. With Risk since 2006, Sandy enjoys working on a wide range of projects, from sound design for radio and TV commercials, animation and short films (shown in the Melbourne, Toronto and Staten Island film festivals) to composing inventive original music.Matt Thompson

Risk Mascot
Letaba, meaning 'River of Sand', has been a trusty companion to Kath since joining the Momsen household as a three-month old puppy. These days, more often than not, you'll find her sitting by Kath's side in the office, quietly observing proceedings. She's a Rhodesian Ridgeback, which is a breed indigenous to Africa and originally developed to track lions and bail them up until the hunter arrived. However, being gentle at heart, they were also bred to protect the family, and that, together with her other endearing traits, is why we've adopted Letaba as our mascot.Support services
