VA Pet Peeves

[Ryusuke]

Deadline's approaching, with six clips left and all that stands in my way are three big tests and 2 classes.

All I can say is...oh dammit...I don't wanna have to ask for an extension again...

Stupid aunt, stupid cats, stupid homework, stupid hurricane Alex keeping me from recording.

And triple casting.

When my video downloader likes to mess up the quality of the video and put random bars of yellow over the screen. .3.

Eating a shitton of food when having the thought of recording soon after...unless I am voicing a character like Mr Creosote

I've peeved about this before, but I just witnessed it again and it still gets to me.

I really hate when there is bad voice acting in a video game. In this day and age, it's not hard to get people who are good at it. There are tons of people even on this forum that could outperform the guys who got the job. What? Were they too busy working on the game to worry about the voice over? C'mon now! It's a complete package; if one part of the product sucks, then it drags down the overall quality.

You like leaving scars in the minds of innocents, don't you? =p

When your nose starts building up when you start recording, and a certain argument gets caught during it. Blargh.

Ahhh... Yes. VA Pet Peeves. 8D I could go on for days but I'll try to make it short:

- It has been mentioned before but casting before the deadline is over. Wtf people. How unprofessional can you get? >>

- AUDITION FOR THIS PLEASE! AUDITION FOR THIS PLEASE! O_< Basically spamming my inbox.

- Lines. I understand that life happens but if you're just too lazy or don't want to do it... tell me and I'll re-cast.

- People who can give Constructive Criticism but can't take it. ><

- People with big egos and decide that they are ONLY going to do projects with friends. If someone asks, "Hi! I was wondering if you would like to do this small project with me. Let me know!" And then they would be like, "Oh, I'm sorry... I'm too busy." Then does a project with a friend later. Wut?

- Favoritism. This one kinda meshes with the one above. Could you at least give other people a chance even though you don't know them?

- Double-casting is annoying at times but sometimes it is necessary if you've lacked auditions or good ones.

- People who are rude after they don't get cast. Whine about it to your Mother.

Everything that I've mentioned probably has been mentioned before. ^^; But yea... The list goes on.

When you do the perfect take of a line when you're not recording. And even if the mic's on, you were too far away or too close or something. Why, WHY must my voice be so cruel and bipolar? *sob sob*

Also, when I set up this awesome schedule that'll make sure I have no lines to worry about sending in for awhile, and then when I'm about to record, parents decide it's fun to disrupt me and ruin the schedule. Ffffff-!

Also, when I suddenly get subconscious about recordings and worry about being too loud. I mean, if some girl's screaming "NO!!!!!!!!!!" downstairs, you'd kinda be wondering what the hell was going on too.

Ja. Rawr.
