At the beginning, it was me, Run and D, but D's voice is messed up.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
At first, I was just trying to sound like DOOM and Eminem, and then I dug out my own voice, I guess.
Voices have always been my way into a character. I usually approach the voice first.
To me the voice has always been the way to start any character. Once I find that, I'm good to go.
Most people were annoyed with my voice, I think, because I'm working-class, and that doesn't sound quite right on Radio 4.
Sometimes when you do voices next to each other, especially when you're first starting out, they tend to bleed into each other. Working on a show like 'Futurama,' we do multiple characters there, but we've been doing it for a while, so the voices are really well-defined in our heads.
By that point, I had started taking singing lessons. And after the first session, I mean, I was surprised that the windows didn't shatter. And after the third session, I really didn't know where this voice had come from.
But I still don't have a clear idea of what my voice is.
I was very bad at projecting my voice. I used to do this Gumby Flower Arranging sketch which involved shouting, and I could never do it right, and at one point my voice went completely.
I never knew that I had an unusual voice. It wasn't something anybody really pointed out to me.
The voice is always the starting place for me with a character.
