I know this has nothing to do with writing but, I'm a wannabe voice actor and I'm just wondering, if anyone is experienced or has done voice acting before, if any of you could share some tips on how to start, how to make demos, how to practice, etc. Thanks!💖
P.S. I'm thinking of voice acting for animation-related stuff.
Oh! I can actually help a bit! I'm a VA occasionally!!!
Really, thanks! Also, just wondering, what kind of VA have you done?
I haven't done any offical va jobs, but I've been voicing and writing my own podcasts for a bit, as well as I'm waiting to hear back for a youtube series
That's cool! Do you do demos or do you do certain things for voice acting? (Dude, I don't even know what to ask lol. (O-O''))
Most of the time, there will be a script of lines you will say for a gig!
Could you explain that a bit, I'm intriuged.
Of course! So the person who you're trying to get to employ you will put out a few lines, and you'll record them! When you do so, try to avoid getting too close to the mic so that when you talk louder, it doesn't pop
Alright, could you please explain what a VA gig is, I've heard of musician gigs, but never VA gigs, and what kind of lines do they give you?
(Also, thank you so much for your explanations! I may bombard you with more questions, I'm sorry. (TwT))
Ah, so in my case, it's for a CC who's minecraft content I enjoy! She's putting together a mc roleplay with VA's and I auditioned!
Ohhh, okay! Makes sense, thanks!
