True dat, the stuff tastes like liquid smarties. Not that I hate smarties or anything but a drink should not taste like them.

You've been doin Voice Acting for "X" hrs straight. You've accidentally reached you deadline so you have to finish. Your voice is getting scratchy or dry, and you need about 30 min more of lines.

What do you drink/use/imbibe/ eat/consume?

My personal favorite is warm berry tea with a teaspoon of honey.

Same thing has happened to me. Especially for certain voices, like Eggman or my soldier voice. Doing that long enough can be hell on me throat. I'm still not sure of that secret Voice Acting Juice, but tea is probably the best thing. I always just go down, have a snack and drink some soda or something. Give myself 15 mins or so and continue. Ever had Amp? That stuff is the best. So far, except for the large amount of caffine (because of what TESM said) it is the ideal drink. Of course, maybe it's just because I frickin love that stuff. Only problem is it costs like $2 (American.)


Happy

As far as drinks for your throat a concerned, there is a fruit called Loquat or Japanese Plum. Make a jam/jelly from the fruit and add it to tea like honey, or you can make Loquat tea directly from the leaves. There are enzymes in it that are healing to the larynx. This is THE best thing, esspecially for those god aweful throat shredding voices.

More Loquat info here and here and also here.

i was told for one of my voices I'm doing to make it a bit 'thinner'

i must be a noob, or have never heard that... I could guess, or deduce, but a definative answer would do it justice.

can anyone tell me what that means so I know forever?

CONGRATS KAGOME! Hope you will have time to help me with my flash project....lol...

But, yes, anyways, I wish to ask a favor of all you Voice Actors. I posted this in the audio section, yet I wish to ask here as well. I do not wish to contact you all directly, since I do want to bother you if you are already working on a project. Here is some info...

The movie I am creating is entitled, "How to Play an RPG". It is a Sprite/Comedy flash, using RPG character sprites, poking fun at the many cliches noticable in role playing games. Of course there is a story line involved.

I have 10 characters who need voice overing. 4 female characters and 6 males. Of course, if a person can do multiple voices, that is great.

If any of you talented New Ground voice actors are interested, please reply. You may contact me here on this forum, my email at dyne@netzero.com , or my AIM SN is Crono Dyne.

Thank you all for your time and consideration!

Ah ha, I'm back! I know that AE is old news now, but you don't have to read the first part of this post if you don't want.

Frogs: Glad to hear nothing went awry while you were staying in THE worst part of Vancouver, but I've heard that car theft is more likely to happen in Surrey, the outermost part of Vancouver. We were wondering what happened to you after you left to put your bag in your car... Kagome, Angela and I went to the dance thing maybe 10-20 mins after you left, but when we found out it was cancelled we went to the gaming room. After that we got escorted back to their town house (even though I'm an adult in Canada). The_Zodiak and Shaun (sp?) were doing the drunk and disorderly thang and although it was hilarious to watch, I decided to call it a night. It was kind of creepy walking around the campus when there was absolutely noone around. I wish I could've stayed for the Sunday panel, it sounded like fun, but I had to get on an early flight. And I apologize for not helping with the panel and not being more talkative. Even though I'm an AVA I'm actually very quiet >_<;

Kagome: Congrats on Miss Dynamite and everything else. The explanation for Eva's voice changing made me laugh. And now you're back at work on the Sensi-Con too?... You never stop do you? :P

VAC: I'm glad to see that you guys were able to keep the flaming down while I was gone. It makes reading all the pages I missed a lot nicer. There were a few cases of some rude and rather pointless posts, but they can't be helped. You guys are doing a bang up job and it shows a lot of class to not get sucked into the flames!

Also, the only thing I've found with voice acting and beverages is not to drink milk. There are some types of voices that it can help, but for the most part, it's just not a good idea to drink it, what with the coating of your throat and all. FYI, the kinds of voices that milk helps with are ones that need to sound "flemmy" so it's not that useful. Since I don't have magical tea or fruit or anything like that, I usually just drink some water and rest my voice when it gets sore.

VAC: What's that you say? My banning is over!? I'm back! I must say, I will never try to correct a moderator again. They get crazy from one word you say. Anyways, I'm making a flash and this is the one I am sticking with.

The Sith's Sense:

I require 3 voice actors, male, for this movie.

Albert: Obese. Fifteen years old. What else can I say? (Six lines)

Francis: Is played by me, but had to prove this little flash wasn't inferior. (Five lines)

Bruce: Another fifteen year old. Yes, it proves, all three boys are fifteen and good friends from school or whatever. As I said before, just talk normally. (Two lines)

George: Okay so we have an adult? No problem. Just talk like you're 20 - 30 years old. (One line)

Okay, so it takes place in a movie theatre. You are watching Revenge of the Sith, and so our story begins.

Auditions will be held on MSN:

gameguy6@hotmail.com

Good luck and have fun.

So I didn't miss anything. I "was" banned but I never stopped coming here.

GrantM, the guy that not too many people preferred. Anyways dude, you'll make it all the way, some day. Just never get nervous, don't complain about jackasses since it only leads to trouble, and have fun. Also.. try not to talk the way we would listen to you. A VA, which I can't remember who, did say you sounded like a "fag" and you sucked badly. You just need practice. Good luck in that.

And like "SOME" people. Do not hide behind a fake voice. And always do things numerous times UNTIL it is correct. Not half-assed. Quality is better than quantity, correct?

Sorry about the double post, but.. some of you people can act like real suck ups. We're all proud of Kagome, but some of you are acting a little crazy. The word is exaggeration. Try to tone it down a little.

I'm making a new cartoon series with humor similar to Family Guy.
I need some supporting voice actors for one of the jokes.
It shouldn't take you long, and it's something to post on your resume.
The roles I need are:
1-A typical surfer-dude sounding voice, similar to Seann Willian Scott (stiffler from American Pie)
2- Someone sounding similar to Jackie chan (any Asian sounding voice will do)
3- Raspy voiced female (Similar to tara Reid)
4- Generic Male voice, doesn't have to be anything special.

email me here with the role that you want. I'll give you the lines and then you send the voicework back to me.

Thanks for even reading this.

NOOBIAN: I took a quick look at your forum and I must say, it is rather intriguing. I think I'll make a post in the VA section, but I should probably fix up my files and get a proper demo reel together, first.

Kagome: Congratulations! I'm glad that the agency had a change of heart.
