Omahdon, do I detect a hint of jealousy?.. no I guess I don't - it's just that I always wanted an arch nemesis. I suppose we'll let The Matrix RPS determine the winner (Shit, your Smith is better than my Neo...)

As for Pretty Face, I'm not sure how it's gonna work. It could work with me just as Randoh as a dude, but I'd kinda like to act opposite you in the scenes with the doctor. Then have Isca do all the school scenes, maybe have some funny back and forth voices with us when he/she flips out. But whatever, being in it at all is cool tho.

If we're gonna be rivals, we'll need an "I'll get you next time Gadget... NEXTTIME!!!***shakes fist***" style closing for our posts. Any ideas?

barry only does a few lines, and his voice is kinda deep and hardman-ish
if that makes sense

Shock_Dingo did a voice for me, I don't know what Barry sounds like but I think he can do it. As for Carlos, I'd be glad to do it but DOES ANYONE KNOW WHERE I CAN FIND VOICE SAMPLES OF CARLOS, I don't know what he sounds like and would like to hear his voice so I can do a better carlos impression.

It won't. At least, not immediately.

Okay, here's the deal folks, after looking at the roster list I noticed something very important that was missing in about 75% of the profiles: VOICE SAMPLES. Now, I may be going out on a limb here, but I think when flash producers are looking through a roster of voice actors, looking for a voice actor for their magnificiently animated flash (or maybe not so, I dunno. it takes all kinds): what they really want is to have a LISTEN to people's voices and from there decide if that voice is suitable for their use.

Admittedly, that is a best case scenario and not every producer has the time nor inclination to listen to every voice sampler out there. But it helps, and is much more helpful than SAYING what you can do, because it actually SHOWS what you can do, and that your supposed age range/specialities aren't some blowhard aspirations of a 13 year old who thinks they can do Bugs Bunny, George Bush, the entire cast of The Simpsons and a Scottish leprechaun suffering from an identity-disorder.

So practically, what does this mean? It means get a bloody sampler and upload it somewhere where people can get it, or I ain't adding yew. In fact, I'm going to start deleting people currently on the roster who don't have a sampler! Starting right NOW!

.... Okay, just kidding. I won't do it right now. But the culling WILL start in April. Until then, I'm only going to add profiles that have a sample link that has the voice of the profile maker. So for those of you currently on the roster, get me a link to your sampler ASAP. Same goes for those of you who want to get added to the roster.

Just so that people don't get the wrong idea and that I'm setting these rules to be mean and spiteful..... Well, I am mean and spiteful, but.... The points for the sampler requirement ARE:

(1) It shows that you're capable of doing the voices (or a close facsimile) that you mentioned under the "Age Range" and "Specialities" section of the profile. It'll also show the cleanliness of your sampling rate, how good you are at eliminating background and mouth noises, and also your proficiency at mixing audio (well, the last one is a bonus, really).

(2) It shows that you actually HAVE ready access to a microphone, know how to record, and know how to upload lines somewhere. I don't think producers would want to work with somebody who "Might, maybe have a microphone somewhere.... Probably have to borrow one from someone out of town.... Maybe I can record if somebody shows me how.... Does anybody know how to get the popping and breathing sounds out from my voice?". It's not TOO much to ask that members of a VOICE ACTING CLUB know how to and have the tools to record their voice, is it? :-\

(3) It'll set a STANDARD for the roster and mean that not every Tom, Dick and Harry (or Tommette, Dickette and Harryette) can just waltz into the thread, leave their profile and expect their name to be added to the list. Just a little bit of extra effort on everyone's parts means less work for me to update (cause it'll scare off the aforementioned TD&Hs just leaving a profile) and it'll make it look more sparklingly professional.

Anyway, that's my stance on it, and I'm sticking to it. I'm sorry if it sounds mean and spiteful to some, but I think just this small, REASONABLE restriction to being entered into the roster would help stem this influx of people (who want to join for purposes possibly not related to voice acting) and make the roster more RELEVANT to voice acting. That's all I'm saying.

So! End of April! Get me a link to a sample of your voice! Or you's get deleted/not added.

And now..... *ahem* "A POX ON YOUR FLESH, AMPHIBIOUS CREATURE! I'LL NOT BE OUTDONE YET!" ..... Is that all right, Frogs? O.o

Question about the age range thing ^^; What if we just couldn't find any good characters to do on our demo that are in the age range we specified?

In that case, don't mention that age and specify a range that's more fitting for your samplers.... Or, say it only if you're absolutely sure you can do it even though it's not part of the sampler. It'd probably help to put an example up, anyway. Remember, a sample is supposed to be something that's designed to show off the widest range of voices your vocal spectrum allows! So having a voice in there of being an old fart would help. This brings up a good point, actually: Don't say you can do a 300 year old when you CAN'T, people! How do you know what a 300 year old sounds like, anyway???

I don't think you have to include every single age, character type, and accent that you list on your profile in your demo reel; the demo just lets the person know that you have the talent to back up what you claim in your profile. If your demo seems decent, and you claim you can do a great Scottish accent, but really can't, I don't know how that's going to help you in the long run; the producer is just gonna say 'well no, you sound more like someone from the Middle East with a bad cold. I guess I'll get someone else.'

I think Omahdon has the right idea about the demos; to modify a familiar saying, "Spoken words are louder (litteraly) than written words." Of course everyone is going to claim they can do characters from babies to century year old men/women, and that they can perform on cue every single dialect and accent known to man....but we need some kind of proof that you have the skills to back up your words. 463 people all claim they can do a great Sean Connery impression. Well don't you want to hear sample clips and figure out which one is the best?
The simple fact of the matter is that you need a way to stand out from everyone else, so you need something that will make you stand apart from the rest of the crowd, and just as you would in the professional world of voice acting, the way you're going to do that hear is with a sample of your talents. Nothing else to it, and nothing else getting past it.
