Akumaryu's Animation Demo Reel 2009

[Akumaryu]

So, I've been told a couple of times that having one of these is a good idea. So I made one. Feedback is greatly appreciated.

That was fanTAStic! Great job

[Akumaryu]

Thanks so much! Glad you liked it! ^_^

Awesome work there. Your pitch range isn't too big, but you can certainly do a lot with it. And that's really all you need, since that medium tone covers what's pretty much the majority of roles out there. Good showcase of emotions there, and you mixed it very well. Even got some SFX in there, and the lip flaps were all great.

All in all, A+ work.

[Akumaryu]

Well, actually, I didn't mix much of anything. Added some music to the first couple of clips, but everything else is pulled from the actual projects. But I am glad you enjoyed it.

Also, as to my "lack of range," it's really frustrating, but I don't only work in that range. That's just what I get cast in all the time. And since I didn't want to take the time to have to mix a whole bunch of new stuff, I pulled from what was available. And besides, I wanted to showcase the stuff I've already been in.

Woo! Fairy Tail!

Anyway, this was great. I liked the one after Natsu that was all goofy the best. I... don't really know what character or show that was. Good range of characters even though the pitch range wasn't very wide.

Now I just need to get me a video editing program to do my own. These are cool.

Even if the range displayed in this reel isn't overly wide, what is remarkable is how dynamic your voice is. You have so much energy, and it really gives you an edge as a voice actor. I remember recently when I watched Para_Bolic's Fairy Tale fandub, your very first line ("WE'RE HOME YOU GUYS!") just floored me with its energy and you kept up that energy throughout the production. Frankly I think energy is perhaps the most important thing to have as a voice actor, and you've got nothing to worry about in that department. None of these voices lacked energy, so you did a really great job!

Thanks so much, Para_bolic! And thanks for casting me in that role! It gave me a very good clip to include in this reel, and it wouldn't be half as good as it is!

You can not possibly know how much I appreciate this comment. I very often fear that I'm not putting enough energy into something, or I'm not giving the character enough emotion. I'm very glad that you felt that these clips had it all. That has seriously brightened my day immensely! Thank you so much! ^_^
