Voice-acting? Me? WTF

Well, I saw that people were needing movie extras on the classifieds just the other day, but I was hesitant... My mother insisted, and she had already called. I was playing Pso at the time, and I was about ready to close the phone, using the excuse of waiting too long for a representative to answer.

As it turned out, I signed up for this Talent line thing, just to be an extra. But actors and models are there too, and many other types. This seemed very interesting to me.

Although, I never really did participate in plays much, and I knew it was hard for me to speak for projects I have done. Thing was, I was very funny, when I was not trying to be. For example, I was speaking with a class mate, covering a business brochure we (actually I made it the same day) made. I chose Family care as the business (because I made it :3 ) and when I spoke of children, I sort of sounded like a pedo. :/ Although it was funny, because they knew what I meant (the audience) but as I said, had sounded wrong. I was just saying things wrong, that is all.

So, I then see Voice acting, now THAT is interesting. I love watching cartoons, anime, playing videogames, etc. For example, Chowder, Invader Zim, Dexter's Lab, Samuari Jack, and Many more. Now, pouring your voice into a character, to me, would be awesome.

So, now that I see that, I wonder if I should try voice training and stuff, because that would be an awesome career.

Voice acting doesn't sound so hard. All you need is changing your voice and making it sound fun. Some people does that all the time.

I think you should try voice acting. But are you good at doing different voices?

I do it all the time. The trick is just to speak at a lower or higher tune, just like singing. It's really easy when you get the hang of my trick :D.

I don't think I'd be a great voice actor... My voice seems to stay the same, no matter what tone or pitch I try and use.

What happened was that I thought Splapp was gonna animate Amy stabbing herself when I recorded that. He sped it up too, but I can just about make a high pitched voice like that naturally. ;P

I'm okay at exaggerated Scottish, but other than that, I'm pretty useless in this field too.

Pretty strange. I wonder how you ended up as the person with the microphone, instead of me.
