If I am recording in my home-studio, we can use Source Connect, Microsoft Teams, Google Meet, Zoom, or any other meeting software you prefer.

Do you offer bundled pricing for multiple projects in series, long or ongoing projects? I do offer pricing considerations for economies of scale. This is beneficial if you have a series, long-format projects or would like to work together on an ongoing basis (we might even become friends). Note that when it comes to bundling scripts/projects, sometimes they need to be recorded at the same time to maximize your economies. If you have a project(s) in mind, lets talk!
