Howard Wang is a voice actor in both local animation and anime dubs, an ADR Director, script adaptor, audio engineer, and has recently moved to Los Angeles for a job in game development! As another leading member of SoundCadence Studio I wanted to ask him about what he gets up to behind the scenes on dubs like Kemono Friends, and the upcoming Thermae Romae. Not only that but he’s the adaptive scriptwriter for the dub of one of my personal favourites, Nichijou. I wasn’t able to rewatch the entire show dubbed, but I did wanna find out what was going through his head when it came to adapting some of the...more interesting moments.
Big thank you to Howard for coming on to share his insight!
