Inside Bluey's authentic Brisbane soundscape

Dan Broun, voice of Uncle Stripe and sound designer for the animated series Bluey, creates authentic audio by recording real Brisbane locations and sounds. In 2025, Bluey became the most streamed show in the US with 45.2 billion minutes watched. Broun's meticulous approach includes recording cricket bats in parks, playground equipment, and native Australian birds like lorikeets and cockatoos to capture the authentic feeling of growing up in Brisbane, even involving his own children in recording sessions.
