Chocolate by Name, Chocolate by Nature
A Natural Approach to Voiceover
Chocolate is not just a branding gimmick: I am chocolate by name and chocolate by nature (click here to hear). This authentic connection to my brand reflects the genuine qualities I bring to every voiceover project I undertake.
Professional Philosophy
That is to say: I am flexible, innovative, adventurous, but mature and project-driven. I enjoy making things easier for my clients. I love nothing more than a project that runs smoothly, so that creativity flows freely, unhindered. My approach centres on delivering exceptional voiceover work while ensuring the process remains enjoyable for everyone involved.
The Creative Process
When the focus is not on problem solving but on creativity, on the project’s specific requirements, true magic happens. When all the ducks are perfectly aligned, and in the knowledge that I have contingency plans for every “hinge” of a project, we can collectively achieve our creative vision. My experience allows me to anticipate challenges before they arise, creating space for uninhibited creative expression.
Team Environment
The space is safe for everyone to be their very own creative selves, part of a team. Then our work really is enjoyable. That’s why we chose to do it, right? I believe that the best voiceover work emerges when everyone feels comfortable contributing their unique talents to a collaborative process that values both individuality and cohesion.
I can help at any stage of your production, from localisation pre-production to casting via direction and coaching. Let’s make beautiful, meaningful things together.
Professional Home Studio
I work from my dedicated home studio, which features a professional voice booth with insulated walls and a floating floor for optimal sound quality. My setup includes premium Rode and Neumann microphones paired with Logic Pro software, ensuring exceptional audio clarity for every project.
I deliver broadcast-quality recordings in high-resolution audio formats, with flexible recording options including studio sessions, remote collaboration via Session Link, or a combination of both approaches to suit your project needs.
The Rich Layers of Stephane Cornicard
With a background in Linguistics and Languages, plus a Master’s Degree in The Process of Production, I bring over thirty years of comprehensive industry knowledge to every project.
My experience spans running a multilingual talent agency, producing for Cartoon Network and TCM, casting and directing for AAA and indie games, and providing translation, localisation and linguistic coaching services across multiple media formats.
