If you imagine yourself to be someone who is very uncomfortable in their own skin, then it does funny things to your voice.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I feel like you come in under a cloak of someone else's skin for a while, but then you can shrug it off - you have to find your own voice, if you want to keep doing it. That became a really conscious thing for me.
I don't like the sound of my voice or how I look or anything.
The fun part about doing voiceovers and all that stuff is that you're not yourself; you're some other looking thing and sounding thing and whatever else.
I have a feeling that about 90% of my life has been shaped by my voice, both as an embarrassment and as an advantage. There was always the terrible incongruity of this deep voice barreling out of this little body. Somewhere in the back of my mind I was aware that it was ludicrous, that it took on an importance that wasn't really there.
People like my voice and say I can sing, but I don't like microphones in front of my face: it distracts me.
If we're afraid to stand in our own skin with those we work with, then how do we lead those who have no voice at all?
The more I become comfortable in my own skin, I think the funnier I become.
I am comfortable in my character's skin. I am uncomfortable being in my own skin.
They really can't imagine what my voice is like. Every time I sing a song, they are very surprised.
People can dress you the way they want, they can do your makeup the way they want, but they can never take away your voice.
