About Randall
Randall’s journey into voice casting and directing was an unusual one. A musician from the age of five and a touring songwriter/performer for 15 years, he stopped touring to co-found InternetSound (later HamsterBall) in 1995. Quite by accident, Randall found he had a knack for directing talent, and soon voice-over became a bigger and bigger part of HamsterBall’s mix.
Randall’s casting and directing video game credits include Chivalry 2, World of Tanks, Lord of the Rings Online, Hearthstone, Dungeons & Dragons Online, Vacation Simulator, World of Warcraft, Cobra Kai: The Karate Kid Saga Continues, and GI Joe: Operation Blackout.
Randall has spoken and taught at events all over the world. He co-hosts the Let’s Talk Voiceover podcast at www.letstalkvoiceover.com. Residing in both Akumál Mexico and Los Angeles, he still composes music, performs the occasional live gig, and believes that dogs make the best people.
