It was a team effort to record, refine, and polish the Master Builder Audio Drama. Today we’re raising our glasses and our headphones to the crucially important SOUND TEAM for this project: Sound Designer Edith Snow, Composers Pennee Miles, and Audio Engineer Alex Maness. You’ll see their bios and photos below. Hire them without delay to work with you (except when we need them for more upcoming projects!!). Listen to their work on the MASTER BUILDER AUDIO DRAMA and be sure to wear your headphones for maximum enjoyment.
