Forum: Voice Acting Chat

I've been thinking about this a lot, and I did this when I used to offer my composition/audio services for free... The developer should have some sort of working demo before they even bother to ask for voice actors. this may seem a bit harsh but it would cut down on a lot of the "nothing"...

Think with me I noticed is when I audition for a teen male. Sasuke Itachi for example I always end up sounding like some young boy. The thing is when I do it it sounds normal to me and not weird. I mean I have been mistaken for a girl a few times when going for a boy voice. Is there a way around...

A lot of people want to be voice actors (or actresses), may it be a fleeting dream or a serious career choice, a lot of us enjoy doing this. I don't think I am exaggerating when I say if you do take classes, it will help your ability greatly. I have recently taken Crispin Freeman's class, after a...

Hey guys! Guess I haven't posted anything in quite some time. A couple people might already know. But I am planning on getting my demo reel recorded at a recording studio. I don't have the amount of money I want for it quite yet. But I'm working on it. Now for those interested, I'm going to...

I just want to throw it out there, but apparently, Chris Rock (who is a really good comedian/actor) said something on Voice Acting during tonight's Academy Awards. "I walk into a booth, say a line and get a million dollars. Voice Acting is the easiest job in the world! All those whiners that...

Hello everyone. I've been looking at projects here on VAA and under the majority of audition threads, each character has a certain "voice type." Whether this be low, medium-low, high, etc. How would I know what kind of voice I have? I really have no clue. If anyone here would like to...

Fandubbing-wise. In your personal opinion. Just trying to narrow my own choices down and it also might give people an idea of what series they could do more of.

1000 pardons if theres a thread like this before Basically what kind of characters do you seem to be casted as most often, feel free to say your theory be it "because i have that kind of voice" or "because the lemons hate my guts" and even how you feel about it Me? I seem to be casted as...

How exactly do you create a demo? Do you work on a few projects and then rip out some lines from them or do you just do it all randomly? What all goes into a demo?

Hey guys I just downloaded a recording program called Audacity and since I am a noob on this site I just wanted to know how one goes about removing background sound/static noise after a recording/ If anyone can help me it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Is there anyone on this forum that can imitate the voice of Jasmine Villegas? I am willing to pay that person 40 dollars for 3 minutes.

And by that, I mean how do you decide who plays what part? Are you methodic, or do you know the voice when you hear it? Do you do casting all at once, or in bits and pieces? I'm in the process of trying a new system. I've typed out a "scoring sheet" to fill out for each auditioneer based on...

Completely forgot to post this here, but better late than never. Late-ish last year I interviewed Vic Mignogna which you can read here. Sadly it was a shared session with other journalists and websites so I couldn't do my usual ask more than some basic questions about song dubs, still he does go...

...what exactly does the auditionist/VA want to see? Let's assume I make a post asking for VA's for characters, what would you want to see that would peak your interest more than usual? For example, If I just had an age, gender, and short bio in text format, is that sometimes enough? I see a lot...

(this could get kinda long, so, fair warning) I'm an idiot. A lazy idiot. You see, it's my dream to become a professional voice actor--someone who actually does this for a living, like Kyle Hebert and Vic Mignogna (or however you spell his name). The thing is, while I do have the...
