Side reveals Lionhead commission

Side, the London-based production services firm, has announced that it was commissioned by Lionhead to perform all casting, direction and voice recording on the recent Fable III.

Side has said that it recorded over 470,000 words of dialogue over five months for use in the game, working with actors like Sir Ben Kingsley, John Cleese, Stephen Fry, Michael Fassbender, Zoe Wanamaker, Bernard Hill, Simon Pegg and Naomie Harris.

“Fable III was fulfilling, challenging and creative to work on,” said Side lead voice director Kate Saxon.

“I had a dream cast to work with and these lead performances were supported by talented actors who together filled the Fable landscape with vivacity and colour.”
