What are some of your favorite voice actors and what would you like to seem them do in the future?

 No.991280

No.

That man's silky-smooth voice might be the only voice I actually recognize or enjoy hearing more of, so you've pretty much covered it.

The celebrity culture around voice actors is cancerous. A truly great voice actor should be unrecognizable and able to fill many different roles.

Would that involve voice actors having enough range so everyone character they play won't sound the same, returning to an era where voice actors weren't really recognized and not displayed in the limelight like they were gods, or both?

>Would that involve voice actors having enough range so everyone character they play won't sound the same, returning to an era where voice actors weren't really recognized and not displayed in the limelight like they were gods, or both?

Yeah, exactly. I find the current climate too similar to Hollywood, where they get actors who can do one voice, and then put them in everything, often times these voice actors are just normal actors like Kieth David. Although I do actually like Keith David, what I really despise is stuff like Tara Strong and that guy who does every video game protagonist. Being able to recognize an actor's voice despite them playing different characters should be a sign that they aren't a talented voice actor.

What about if you have a pretty good ear? I mean, considering that on average Frank Welker's done like what 25 voices in one show?

I think part of the fan admiration to VA's (and people wanting to become VA's) is that from a shallow outsider perspective, the job sounds easy, fun, you gain fans without being recognized/mobbed on the street like a Hollywood celebrity and you get to be a "participant" of the cartoon industry.

When in reality most VA's have had some sort of theater or acting experience (so it's not easy as it sounds) and doing many voices in a short span can be very hard on one's throat causing problems when trying to get more voice roles.

The skills overlap quite well, so training in music can only help.

The vocal strain is more down to the types of voices you do. Switching between voices that lack harsh tones is far less taxing than flipping between, for example, Zorak and Dr Weird.

Speaking of them, I put forth Clay Martin Croker as a great VA.

I should add Darin De Paul and Abby Craden to that list after Doom 2016.

"I'm Doctor Samuel Hayden, and I'm hooking all your favourite voice actors up to a giant machine which will harness their powers to solve the energy crisis. No need to thank me, I've already taken the necessary funds from your accounts."

"I am Olivia Pierce. I would just like to state for the record that I am a doctor too, and I am going to sacrifice all your favourite voice actors to Satan, in exchange for a promise that the forces of Hell will fix my sciatica. (sniff) That is all."

"God damn it, Olivia…"
