About Light Fader

Light Fader is a French audio post-production, dubbing, sound design and music composition studio serving video games, films, television, animation and advertising. Founded by Morgan Dufour in 2018, the studio previously operated as Audio Workshop. Its current name continues that business, with a new legal structure established in 2025. Based in the Montpellier metropolitan area, it also operates a production studio in Paris and works with international recording and localization partners.

The studio handles sound from initial creation through recording, editing, implementation and final mixing. Its dubbing services cover casting, translation, dialogue adaptation, recording direction, dialogue editing and mixing. Supported languages include French, English, Japanese, German and Spanish, allowing the team to manage localization work across different markets and production requirements.

Sound for interactive and linear media

For games, Light Fader combines sound design and audio asset creation with in-engine implementation. Its capabilities include Wwise and FMOD middleware integration and work in Unreal Engine 5, Unity and Godot. Music services encompass original composition, orchestration and audio direction, while sound effects work includes synthesis, custom effects and performed foley.

For film, television and animation, the studio provides dialogue editing, voice recording, dubbing and re-recording mixing. It works in stereo, 5.1, 7.1 and Dolby Atmos, with immersive mixing also available for virtual reality productions. Audio restoration, cleanup and remastering extend its services to existing recordings and older soundtracks.

Production experience

Light Fader’s portfolio spans game audio, localized television and animated productions. Documented projects include Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown, Road 96 and Have a Nice Death. Its television and animation work includes French dubbing for Angry Birds: Mystery Island, Paper Port, Fisk and Itch.

The studio’s combination of recording, editorial, music and implementation services supports both complete audio assignments and contributions to larger production pipelines. Its French facilities provide dedicated spaces for mixing, editing and dubbing, while partner collaborations support international voice recording and localization.
