Crafty Lion Productions
Long before the days of television broadcast, people were forced to rely on radio to keep in touch with the world. This form of communication was expressed purely through voice and sound alone, enabling listeners to use the power of their imagination to visualise what they were hearing. Then came along visual console games and animation. While visuals are provided, the production of sound within each medium remains very similar to that of radio broadcasts and podcasts.

At Crafty Lion Productions, we provide film-makers, game designers, animators and theatres alike with custom-made sound creations, music compositions and voice-over artists using our library of sound effects and talent pool of actors.

As well as providing a sound design service for fellow media-makers, we also create audio projects to enhance the power of the imagination of people from all walks of life - including those with a visual impairment or disability.

Based in Adelaide, Australia.

Given the popularity of the visual medium, writers of podcasts and audio plays are a rare breed. We have over 25 voice-over artists in our talent pool and we produce audio projects of all genres.

The projects we produce are as follows:

  • Audio plays. Scripts of less than 10 minutes in length.
  • Audio series. Scripts of no more than 20 minutes in length per episode.
  • Podcasts. General soundscapes that tell a story but not necessarily with dialogue. Preferably less than 10 minutes in length.
Other audio project suggestions welcome

Examples
Audio Play - Sounds of Darkness (approximately 8 mins)
Audio Series - StarPol

Submitting audio projects

Applicants will need to include a short synopsis of their projects to be considered for production. Please indicate if it is an audio play, audio series or podcast. Please fill in the request form here.

With over 1000 sound effects at our disposal, we are able to create soundscapes for a variety of multimedia including film, game creation, animation and theatre.

Some of the soundscapes that have been tackled include:
  • Dungeon
  • 19th Century sailing ship
  • City traffic
  • Park in winter
  • Beach
  • Intensive Care Unit
  • Thunderstorm heard from within a tinshed
  • Sci-fi warzone

In order for us to tailor soundscapes to your needs, you will need to specify the length of each soundscape and any specific sounds used within them.

Private sound editing sessions - $AUD30/hour on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays (Adelaide metropolitan area only). Bookings essential. Contact our sound editor.
