Corey Borchers (Taruk) 

Corey has been in the film industry for nearly a decade, mostly working behind the camera as a grip/electric and assistant camera. During this time, he found a passion for acting; appearing in short films and independent features. Though he did some voice work, his career path ultimately led him to work for QVC as a studio lighting designer, designing lighting for everything from the day-to-day live broadcast, to onlocation events, to musical performances by artists such as The Beach Boys and Barry Manilow. It was at QVC that Corey was reunited with his passion for acting and voiceover. When a recurring show required a voice talent, Corey stepped up to perform. Since then, he has trained and grown as a voice over talent, working in projects both commercially and creatively.

He recently created his own voice over company, BlueRexVO. (www.bluerexvo.com) When he’s not in the booth or on set, he’s tinkering with his Subaru WRX out in the garage or attempting to learn a new language.

 

Stephen Cumberworth (Villadius/Music)

CotFLanovranBio.jpg

Stephen hails from the Sonoran Desert region of Arizona, where he developed a passion for the outdoors and wildlife at a young age, and also received classical and jazz music training during his school years. While he has spent most of his professional life working in education and animal care at zoos and aquariums, and/or spinning his wheels in bicycle sales and repair, he has also enjoyed a part-time pursuit of voice acting since the mid-2010s, with roles in audio dramas, video games, and animations.

A long-time lover of fantasy and animation, what he lacks in formal theatrical training, Stephen makes up for with his diverse vocal range borne of decades of mimicry, language skills, and time spent giving voice to the characters that he would encounter in books, comics, video games, and other media. Before getting into voice acting, however, Stephen started his audio adventures as an instrumental musician with a focus on world flutes, having acquired his first Native American style flute back in 2005. Stephen has recorded and produced four albums of original instrumental music, which can be found here on his Bandcamp page. Listen for his flutes and drums in certain scenes of "The Call of the Flame!" You can also follow him on Twitter: @SCumberworthVO.

George Hoctor (Narrator)


"Do what you love and if it makes people happy, do it more" - George Hoctor

20 years old and live in Chattanooga, TN. Born and raised there, and has lived here all his life. First introduced to voice acting with, what else, cartoons! Specifically Looney Tunes and Mel Blanc's fantastic work in that. He found it amazing that one man did NEARLY ALL of those voices!

As he grew older he was still very interested in cartoons and animation but wasn't so much focused on the idea of voice acting until about 17 when he realized that voice acting could be my dream job. The work can be hard at times but that is nothing when compared to the buzz he gets stepping up to the mic with script in hand and getting to really have fun with his work. Studied at Chattanooga State Community College for a bachelors Telecommunications where he used the skills in audio mixing and quality to make his audio sound better.

“I hope to make voice acting a professional career because of how much fun it can be but more so because it's something that I love and am passionate about.”

 

Jacob Williamson (Calan and King Masun)

"Kindness, professionalism and a sense of humor are the stepping stones to getting along, no matter who with."

22 years old, born and raised in Chicago, Illinois. He first indulged in voice acting and roleplay at a young age, and has ever since made it a hobby, and eventually an occupation. His hobbies include voice acting, singing, writing, and being a DM for Dungeons & Dragons. He is capable of an extremely wide range of voices and has been honing them his entire life. Project director's see him as very hard working, but also fun and humble co-worker.

After discovering what he truly loved to do, he set out to make a name for himself in the Voice Acting business. Since he showed prowess in early 2018 for Voice Acting, he's gotten himself involved in a multitude of different projects. Jacob has voices in "Fallout: The Frontier" and "Fallout: A Brave New World", both very large Fallout: New Vegas total conversion mods. He has voiced characters in stop motion films, video games, as well as animatics, machinimas and comic dubs. Jacob's most notable inspirations are the renown Matthew Mercer and Troy Baker. He has learned one of the most effective ways of getting into character, and uses it to his full advantage. Losing yourself to be put in another's shoes, to feel, speak and act like them in every way. He hopes to continue his career in Voice acting for years to come, and to work hard enough to be able to create and play characters that people will remember and love.

Kurt Cañez (writer/editor/producer)

kurt2.jpg

Kurt is an aspiring filmmaker from the Mile High City (as evidenced by his beanies and love of flannel).

Ever since he had a digital camera to animate Legos he's been chasing filmmaking dreams of impossible scale. But where there's a will, there's a low budget way (have you seen how much Legos cost these days!?). This led him on a path to discover Web Animation, Machinima, and Podcasting. His inspirations range from literature, film, and comics, with Brian K. Vaughn, Joss Whedon, C. Robert Cargill, and George R.R. Martin, being among his most influential writers.

He studied at the Colorado Film School for two years and has produced web content since 2010 with his Halo machinima web-series "Theta".

From here he doesn't know where he'll go. No matter what though, he will do it with friends at his side, and will never hear the odds of success [though he might acknowledge them in a non-commital fashion].

Adam Halpin (music composer)

adam.jpf

Raised in Colorado, recovering music snob, B-movie snob, and Ratchet & Clank fanboy Adam Halpin is a music composer, sound designer, and video editor. He was surrounded by lots of diverse music growing up. He got his punk, goth, and new wave fix from his mom (formerly a drummer in an 80s goth band), and his psychedelic and classic rock essentials from his dad (currently a Zeppelin fan still bitter about not being able to see them live). This somehow led him to electronic, orchestral, and global traditional music, with a particular interest in film and game music. Starting at age 12 with his dad’s old iMac, he discovered GarageBand was installed and gave it a whirl.

Years of trial and error, fueled by a staunch opposition to ever reading the manual, he got some tunes together. This led him into the world of music composition, initially helping out friends with amateur video projects or game mods. He got a semi-professional start in the craft in 2012, since then having his work appear in games, films, and commercial work, and first met The Call of the Flame’s creator Kurt Cañez while attending the Colorado Film School, and would soon be contributing music to his Halo machinima, “Theta.” This would pave the way for his involvement in The Call of the Flame. In the wild, he can be found preaching the excellence of the Ratchet & Clank series, seeking new material to satisfy his obsession with B-movies, and pretending to be a cook by adding frozen vegetables to Thai noodle packets.
