Hi, i just joined this forum, my names Brian and I'm 21. I am primarily a script writer, i don't have much experience with voice acting but i would like to become a great voice actor. With that said, i have a few questions and i would greatly appreciate it if you could guide me on my path, u don't have to answer all the questions, just whatever ur most knowledgable on;


What sort of regimen do the best voice actors follow follow?
What qualities separate the very best from the average?
What are the best ways to learn, is it better to get a coach immediately or experiment on my own first?
What role does a coach play and how important is it to have a "good" coach instead of an "average" vocal coach at this stage of my learning curve?
How long does it take to get good enough to reach professional level, what are the different stages you go through before you get to professional level?
What are the most important core fundamental skills/talent to become a great voice actor?
What are some great core fundamental exercises that i can do daily?
How difficult is it to learn a completely new dialect and learn to speak it with the fluency of a native, how long does this take?

thank you
