i voice acted in kupa's comics: Gum. That was hot.

i think i could do a voice, i know i do an okay sean connery one

Hello!
I'm a newbie (laugh all you like). Looking to get into voice acting. Pretty huge anime fan. Extremely huge Inuyasha fan (who isn't?). Don't have any demos yet. Live in Philly (gonna find a whole lotta work here! ) (Sarcasm alert). Just wanted to say hi!
Voice range: no idea. I'm 22, on the phone i sound about 40, in person i sound 15.
Specialties: Horror movie scream, singing (Range: F3-C6), "i've been smoking since i was 10" character voice, fast talker
Would looooove to voice an anime character, but i'm not sure if i have the right voice. Anyone know any good voice coaches/ evaluators in the Philly area? (New Jersey's okay, too)

Unfortunately no, I'm real sorry. Actually, as a matter of fact, there are not supposed to be any female characters, but i figured that Tails would be too hard for the males of Newgrounds considering he sounds most like a girl. So I decided to cast a girl instead. Once again, I am sorry. But i think i might want your voice for an animation that I am thinking about making. Its a love story, not to many of those on Newgrounds. I dont want to give too much away, but my idea is that there are two people who are TRUELY in love. They love eachother so much that they often just look at eachothers eyes in bed. But sadly, the boyfriend dies and goes to heaven. Once he goes into heaven he finds that it is the most joyous thing ever. He can fly around and do anything he wants. But the worst part about it is that he has no way of contacting his girlfriend, and he becomes really sad. And you see him sitting alone...crying, and theres a puddle of tears, and that is how the movie ends. If i make the actual movie (its still just a concept) i dont really know if i should have any voices at all, due to the fact that i believe that there would be a stronger feeling if there were no voice, or words even. Just the animation and the sad music (which i am having extreme difficulty finding). So, if i decide that i do want voices for this animation, i will contact you. Keep in mind though, its still just an idea i have in my head, and I am not 100% positive I am even going to really animate this.

*raises hand* I dislike Inuyasha. I think the dub has killed it for me. Maybe if I rented the original. Yeah, I should do that.

I look forward to hearing your demo! I like demos.

Hey, I'm putting my hat back into the ring.

After the authors of all the movies I've done voices for decided not to make the movies... i'll become available again. Any way.

I can do SO MANY DIFFERENT VOICES is scary. some examples

Dr. Nick (simpsons)
Pilsbury doughboy
scooby doo
homsar (homestar runner)
coach Z(homestar runner)

Just a slew I can think of off the top my head, and of course those are existing characters, I can mix the different properties of different voices to match your character, just send me an email. If anybody is interested. Also you can take a look at my site.

i can also mimic many voices from tv shows and other shtuff like that, just give me an example. WILLING VOICE ACTOR HERE!!!!!

by the way, foxphere what i meant by i liked your work was slapdash heroes, i know it doesn't mention you directly, but i'd think you'd have SOME part in it.

That's a good list of voices...now if only you had a demo reel of them. ^^ It'd be nice if you made one for yourself. I'd really like to hear one from you. (Sounds like you've got good VAing skills) And if you need help on how to make your own demo, I'd be glad to help out. Just IM me on AIM and I'll assist you (if you need help).

yeah, i'm also an inuyasha fan, can't get enough of the "sit boy"!

by the way, welcome little phoenix, can we get a round of applause for the n00b?

Hmm...unfortunately, I know no good voice acting coaches in or around Philly, sorry. I live in the southern California area. I get the feeling you're striking for a professional voice acting career. That's wonderful! But, here, we are merely amateur voice actors, who are either aspiring to become a VA sometime in the future or just doing it because it happens to be fun. You should hang around here though, because it's a great place to audition for these talented flash animators and start building up an online resume. You should also visit the VAA (voice acting alliance ). It's a great voice acting community, one where you can audition for many fan dubs of anime, original radio plays, etc. and create an even larger resume for yourself. You should also make a demo reel/sampler of your voice to promote your VAing skills. If you need any help, just IM me on AIM, and I'd be glad too assist you. ^^

First off, you like Inuyasha, therefore you = cool. I've been wanting to sound like Kagome for some time now, and lately Kagura also. If you have a specific role you would like that isn't taken by one of my regulars, maybe I could use you in one of my Inuyasha fandubs in the future.

Oh, about coaches and all that...I'd kinda suggest not getting one when you're starting out because it seems like it would be a lot of money :/ My advice is, since you want to do anime acting, observe professional actors in subs and GOOD dubs (I suppose you can watch bad dubs to get an idea what NOT to do lol) and try imitating the voices. At least, that's how I got started. There are some more experienced people here who may have some better ideas but yeah.

Sorry to double-post, but Pheonix-san, I remembered something...you wondered if you have the "right voice" for anime. Don't worry. I do not have the "right voice" for anime but I learned to change it. I mean, how many people in real life actually sound like Excel or Haruko? (Most people would probably find it annoying if they did....) For example I used to be upset at not being able to play chibi girls because I have a fairly deep voice normally..until realizing, Dude, you can change your voice. It just takes practice.

Well, i have to start somewhere! I prefer to build experience with liad-back indie-type work, then move on to the strict stuff. Thanks a lot for your help, i will definately check out the link you provided. And thanks for making me feel so welcome! (Same to you, Kagome! Thanks!)

Check it out! My new demo! ::thumbs up::

My best voices that I can do are Mr Burns and Smithers from the Simpsons, Shaggy and scooby and the characters plankton, squidward and especially patrick star from spongebob squarepants. I can probably sound like Dr Eggman from the sonic games too.

Hello Everybody !
This is my first post over the forum......
(Since the first post didn't appear so I rewrite another one).

I must say that this club you created is very cool !
I wonder if you guys wanted to try something with me.
(I'm a simple Animator.. nothing much)

I wonder if any of you would like to try something for FUN !
Such as 2 sentences (really short) boy + Girl and I will animate it, and it may looks cool, because you will have no idea (at 1st time) how your VOICE is going to LOOK (and Act) LIke ! ...

I was thinking about something like... hmmm... maybe:

Evil Monster (Male Voice):
" Mwahahahahaahaha !!!! And Now... It's time for you to DIIIIIIEEEEE !!!!!!!!!!!!!! "
( *All the sentence should sound evil, *Die = Long Scream)

Good Guy (Girl Voice):
" Hmm ! ...We'll see about that. "
( *Hmm = Small Smirk over the character's face, the rest of the sentence sounds like he is very Sure about himself )

Those 2 sentences are only an Idea of something popup in my mind... you may record anything you like, afterall it's for FUN !

if you are interested, please e-mail me at:
kayoto@surfree.net.il
with your link so I can download the .mp3 that you recorded.

I'm sorry about my bad English....
Have a nice day everybody !

KaYoTo

Hey, everybody!
I know there are probably a million of them out there, but can anyone recommend a good voice recording software? (Preferably not too expensive and download-able!) I'm getting tired of only being able to record 60 seconds at a time...in .wav only...with my current program (which came w/ windows). Thanks a lot!
--Phoenix

I use Cool Edit Pro. I find it's a really decent program, I've never had trouble with it. I tried Goldwave, but found it a little hard to use.

Sorry for the many many posts, but i'm just getting started, and you folks really seem to know what you're doing!
I have been recording sides & whatnot so, hopefully, i can majke an amateur demo just to get started (can't afford a professional one just yet), and i'm getting a lot of noise...i mean, a LOT. Okay, i'm recording w/ my computer, so that's probably making a lot of the noise, but i tried taking the mic into a closet full of clothes and recording there, i'm getting the same amount of background noise (the only difference is my voice- i don't sound like i'm inside a tin can) I'm wondering if all the noise is bcs. my mic is plugged directly into the sound card? What can i do to remedy this problem? Also- what's a foam mic cover for and do i need one? Thanks for all your help! BTW- Isca, i'll definately check out Cool Edit Pro. I've heard of it before, but wasn't sure, thanks for the tip!
--Phoenix

Ahhhh, cursed microphone noise. It's hard to say what could be causing it. Is it just background static? Or is it air puffs? Air puffs are easier to solve, but background static can be trickier.

all you voice actor people, check this out

look that stuff over, and notice that about half the roles are already cast. this isnt my website. i am participating, but if you were to email an audition, it would be going to me. (im Neil Corcoran on that page if anyone cares)

Hello

I am making a clay movie it is about an invading orange army waging war on the blue country. There is a big battle and there is not that much voice to say maybe 5 lines.

I will need a Male actor that can play multiple voices and I will need a Female actor that can play a rough girl voice. If you want more details say so and I will send you the sciprt and give more detail about everything.
