Back at Amecon last August thanks to the convention committee we got to spend lunch with voice actor Brad Swaile. It's taken me a bit of time to get the interview written up as Brad made a lot of interesting points and I didn't want to miss anything.

How did you get into acting?

 

We interview Philip Chryssikos about Managing Editor at Entertainment news about his career in broadcasting and as his advice for the aspiring voice over artists out there.

 A lot of people ask for ideas for lines to practice or record for demos, so I thought I would compile a selection. Note, this is for amateurs only, those seeking to make a pro demo should look for scripts with the service they are using to make their demo. The first section are those adapted by me so may not be 100% accurate to the originals, but I've either changed them to help flow or else they have been written by me for use in my own projects.  The secound section are transcripts I still ask you give credit 'coz I worked at finding these!

 Hello, welcome to part two of my working with amateur voice actors series.

So you've held auditions and you now need to cast. I'll briefly talk about, this though in the end it's up to you. But if you're still stuck here are some pointers:

 

 New Staff Recruitment

 

Hi, I'm looking for new staff to help the site. I'm pretty flexible on what people can do since any contribution really helps ( so you could mod a bit, but also write etc) aside from myself DigitalBrute also works on the site, but I'm going to outline some key areas I'd really like some support in. But first a few things about the site:

 

 We got a chance to chat to well known voice actor Vic Mignogna at the last MCM London Expo. We discuss a range of topics from getting into voice acting, dubbing anime songs, voice acting inspirations, and of course Full Metal Alchemist.

We interview the animator Kyutwo! 

1.Hi, can you tell us about yourself?

 

 It's been a while since our last review, so we take a look at Buffy the Vampire slayer animation “ The necklace.”

 How to audition for online voice acting projects

 

If you're on this site then there's a chance that you want to get involved in amateur voice acting, or you might be looking for voice actors. This guide is for AVAs looking to audition, but might also be of use for those of you posting auditions so you can understand how the process works. Amateur voice acting roles are usually recorded in each actor's own home, they then send the files to the project creator ( often called a producer), who mixes everything together. Very rarely does any AVA part require travel or for the participants to meet.

 

 

Make audio dramas? Kick-ass Machinima? anything you think we'd be interested in let us know and well do our best to review it or feature it on this site.  It's not too hard e-mail me at aralechan@gmail.com or post on the forum about your project. 

Update for the new site! This is still active so if you want to get your project plugged on the site e-mail in!
