Forum: Voice Acting Chat

My family was really putting me down last night. They're discouraging me from becoming a pro VA. They say that I can't make a living from that kind of work and even if I did make it I would have to have another job to stay on my feet. My question is, that if I do become a pro, would it be...

Recently I auditioned for something (won't name names cause I don't want this to turn into a hate tread) where I didn't get the part because the producer selfcasted themselves instead. I can understand this if they do a better job than me but they posted a clip of them doing the voice and it...

I was wondering if anyone has ever thought of sending in fandubs and radioplays to professional companies to see what they think and maybe see if they would be interested in casting some of the actors in them.

Why do I live all the way in Holland.. cant take VA classes here.

Hey everyone, I'm new here and I just wanted to know which actor/actress has inspired you the most. I got totally inspired when I started watching asian films again. My friend from universal brought home these asian films(Purple butterfly, Dolls, Last life in the Universe, Bright Future) and I...

I just came back after two years of being computer-less, only to find an almost dead VAA. This site used to be brimming with life. What happened? I checked Flava, and it was completely devoid of life. At least I think so. This sucks.

I'm very close to getting my first "real" role at BangZoom ("inches away" as the director put it.) and this question's been on my mind for a while. What do you guys think? -Cristina

What's your favourite professional voice actor currently, for both male and female? This is kind of tough, because they are so many good ones out there, but if I had to choose myne would be: Male: Cam Clarke Female: Tara Strong These are my two favourites. Cam Clarke has some really cool...

Hallo. I haven't been around on the board in a while, but I'm very much in the mood to be entertained. I was looking around at the finished work and the current auditions. I didn't see many original work up. What I would like to as is 1 - if there is/are any current original rps, what are...

Hey all, I'm hanging out at AnimeDetour this weekend, with a number of VAs. (Greg Ayres, Monica Rial, and a couple others...) Anyone have any questions you want me to ask them? I'll check tomorrow morning and Sunday morning and ask any questions that you guys have. Within reason. >.>

Hiya! I would love to be able to do male voices, but I have NO clue as to what exercises or warm-ups I should use to help me practise. Can anyone give me any tips please? Thanks alot! :D

I need a good voice recording program... I downloaded one that worked really well, but after two weeks I found out that it was just a demo and that they wanted me to pay $50 to keep on using it... -_-. So now I need some advice from you guys... I really don't want to continue jumping around the...

Matt: Heeeey Dad! Dad: What? Matt: You up for a trip to B'ham? >D Dad: Not right now, lol, why? Matt: I found 3 recording studios there. Dad: And what are they for? Matt: So I can record an animation demo reel, and a commercial one. Dad: What are those for? Matt: These are my calling cards...

If yes: why? If no: why not? I really need to know, guys. This is important to me. I have some very important decisions to make that rest on the answer to this question.

Wooo! Yes! I've been taking this class for a month now. I have two more sessions to go and then I'm done. Right now I'm taking a beginner class, which teaches us the terms, how to work in the booth, with the headphones, etc. These classes are small, they are limited to 10 people. But I love it! The...

Whether it be making pointless computer game movies, or wearing my voice out trying to get the perfect tone, I've always got to be doing something now along those lines. Well, for the past four hours or so (because all of my work was lost during an "incident" along the way), I've been working on...
