Heya! If you are seeing this then congrats for having shy ol' me on your radar! I stumbled across this site thanks to a friend (Who is also here) mentioning it to me while doing some auditions herself. So what the hay? I'll give it a shot too!
Mind you this will be a read so forgive me ^^;
What brought me here
I've always wanted to try voice acting (And writing on the side as a hobby/ past time) be it a minor or major role, or just someone that can do a variation of sound effects (I'm no Michel Winslow, but it doesn't hurt to try right?. I'm... Not the best in my confidence in my skills, so I seem to shy away a lot, but I'm hoping to change that fairly quickly. Starting with Casting Call to do just that!
Inspiration(s)
Oh this is a doozey of a list, but the ones I cqan think of right off the back would be the following:
Tara Strong (She is in EVERYONE'S CHILDHOOD) she is a flexible voice in emotion and range.
Rob Paulson- Like Tara Strong, but I have always seen, heard rather, in wacky roles like Pinky from Pinky and the Brain so I try to give a role that kind of tone if it calls for it (or even improv too!)
Michel Winslow- This guy known as the man of a thousand sounds is one reason I try doing various sound effects. He did the sounds of a radar in Space Balls if that is any help with a good example(s)
Kayla Myrick- Not a big name... Yet, but she is the reason I am trying out voice acting a bit more. Friend of mine and I would be a bad person not mentioning her in my inspirations. Kick ass friend and gives her all in the auditions she do. I'm actually kinda envious of her outgoing way..!
I could go on, but again this would be a long list as to why they are my inspiration.
Boy for someone that is a shy person, I can really type out a small novel ^^;
If there is anything else you would like to know about me, I won't hesitate to answer! Send me a message and I will respond to them ASAP after work or nothing prohibiting me from doing so.
Oh and I am a bit of an anime/gamer person too if that helps open the gates for starting conversations.
Again sorry for the long read, but i hope it helps those who may see this page to speak. I won't bite!
