The best voice actors all have a live performance background. And are competent, fearless, incredibly creative actors.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
As an actor, you're trying to capture the nuances of real life, but voice work is almost over-acting.
Trying to give an individual a voice has always kind of been my mission in my life. As an actor, I've always seen that was something that needed to be done. You need to find that voice inside of you so that you can stand up and be who you really are.
Some of the best actors in the world are very exterior actors, Anthony Hopkins being one of them. He knows exactly how to turn his face to get a certain expression. He knows exactly what to do with eyes, and with his voice. It's very exterior.
I try to get the best performance an actor can give.
You have to do real acting, not just do a voice.
If any performer has quality in his voice he can almost always be helped to develop all the other necessary attributes.
Sincerity and the correct use of the voice are the greatest things in the art of acting.
I haven't done a lot of voice work, but I know that a lot of shows will just bring in the actors individually, and they will just do what is on the paper. You miss out on that connection of having everyone there.
My dad had such a cool job. When you're a voiceover actor, it's a whole different skill - you're bringing these huge, larger-than-life monsters and characters to life. And, also, you have to learn accents.
I love any kind of acting, so if I could focus on becoming the best actor I can strictly on my voice, I would love that.
