Supercell are a brilliant client, and over the years I've voiced a variety of characters for them—this Goblin promo was another fun one to add to the mix.
That was my first question when I was booked! Finnish was a decent starting point. Some of what I recorded included lines like “Tahpakkee miut,” “Ketäs tie tyyppi o?” and “Puren mieluummin käteni irti ku oon tässä.” Translating Goblin-speak while adding character took some creative wrangling!
It was a great session learning to speak Goblin (and Finnish) for the promo. Take a listen to my other characters – from spooky Halloween types to pirates and football commentators.
The promo had over 4 million views when I last checked. Not bad for a day’s goblining!
If you haven’t heard of Clash of Clans… where have you been? It’s a mobile strategy game created by Supercell in Finland. Players build villages, join clans, battle it out in Clan Wars, and yes—occasionally hire voice actors to bring characters to life!
I’ve worked with Supercell on Boom Beach too, voicing Hammerman. I’ve not played the games as much as I’d like—waiting for my daughter to reach that age so I’ve got an excuse to jump in.
As a character voiceover myself, I'd love to help. I’m happy to test read or audition lines for your project. With my studio being broadcast quality and as good as any in London, I can voice everything remotely—or you can direct me live, just like Supercell did.
Get in touch and let’s see how I can help. I look forward to bringing your characters to life.
