VA Pet Peeves

[MissAck]

When you do a fandub and email your cast members about important events or questions you have about your dub... and they don't get back to you!!
But! change the subject to something simple like 'hey' and bada boom bada bing instant reply with nothing about the important stuff you need their word on for completing the dub.

That sinking feeling and loss of confidence/motivation that's like "Why're you auditioning? You know they're just gonna pick someone better than you anyway" and "Even if you do get a role, it's just gonna fall through like every other time you got a role" .__.' I hate when I think like that 'cause it makes me feel so emo D:

[Aziral]

When you record a crapload of extremely long lines which cause you to have to do a ton of retakes only to realize when you're FINALLY done that your voice gradually got lower and lower throughout the script and so the lines you recorded at the end sound nothing like the ones you recorded at the beginning, and you now have to record half of the super long tongue twister lines all over again. FML.

Yes! I hate that especially when the voice I'm doing really begins to strain my throat after a while. D:

Peeve: When I'm planning to hold auditions for a fandub I want to do but then I end up not doing it because I'm just a big wimp. It's already happened to me several times. XD

When suddenly,a huge ass spider shows up in my closet while recording lines and trying to find ways to either kill it or take it outside safely.

I hate when that happens! Though I get mosquitoes more than spiders...and in my regular room. XD; <3

Aw noes.;_;
Silly buggies...The recording booth's for voice actors.

After a weekend of fun, you realize your voice is shot. And you can't belt out any loud lines, no matter how much you try. It really sucks at times whenever I try to take a small break from VAing to just have an outside life, and whenever I try to get back in, my voice gets shot. T_T

KILL IT WITH A SHOE, KILL IT WITH A SHOE!!!

Seriously.

[Y. Chang]

When your crappy first project with a questionably capable producer comes back to haunt you.

Urgh...and just when you were starting to live it down! I still want to pretend it never happened.

A spider landed on my head once while I was recording. Unfortunately (fortunately?) my mic wasn't on so my fairly predictable reaction to such a thing wasn't recorded.
