About Our Guest
Sebastien Croteau
Metal vocalist since 1991 (Necrotic Mutation) and throat singer (Tibetan, Mongolia and Inuit throat-singing) since 1996, SΓ©bastien Croteau masters an impressive number of extreme vocal techniques and vocal effects. He began teaching metal voices and throat-singing 15 years ago. Since then, he has trained hundreds of metal vocalists and voice talents around the world and he is a renowned specialist in vocal distortion, extreme sounds and creature voice design.
It is thanks to these techniques that he began to work for video games companies in 2005. Since then, he has specialised in vocal stunt work and sound creation of the voices of monsters and creatures. He has worked on more than forty video games and movies (including Star Wars Outlaws, The Watchers, Hellblade 2, Baldurβs Gate 3, Warhammer: Realm of Ruins, Gotham Knights, Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy, Dead by Daylight, Dungeons and Dragons: Dark Alliance, Shadow of the Tomb Raider, Far Cry 5, Rainbow Six Siege: Outbreak, Prince of Persia β The Forgotten Sands and Assassin's Creed 2) and has lent his voice to more than 300 characters.
For the past few years, he has been a casting director and a voice director for various projects. He has also given many conferences around the world and many workshops for The Halp Network, Wonderland VO, BRAVA UK, Real Voice LA, OMUK and Skillshub.
In 2018, he created a company called The Monster Factory, a talent agency that specializes in extreme sounds, vocal stunts and creature/monster voices.

About The V.O. Dojo
Inspired by the discipline of martial arts and the fun and playfulness of improv, at The V.O. Dojo we encourage voiceover artists to approach their craft fearlessly and with the wisdom of a warrior.
Unlike many other training programs, the Dojo takes a wonderfully unique and holistic approach to the business of voiceover. We concentrate not only on formal skills and techniques but also on the mind/body/spirit connection necessary to communicate your truth and connect with your audience.
