Do you have commissions open? Yes! And they can be found here!

Could you come to _____-con? As much as I’d love to, I need money for those kinds of things. My donation box is always open, and that definitely helps with getting me to cons and such! I’d love to go!

Do you have voice acting lessons open? Of course! They take place over skype, usually last an hour long per lesson, and the cost is $25 USD per lesson. There is more information about them here!

Microphone/Recording Details? The microphone I currently use is a Rode NT1A (which is a cardioid condenser, not a USB microphone), along with two pop filters (one being the RODE SM6 pop filter), and a shock mount and noise treatment barrier (the Auralex Mudguard). I use Audacity to record my voice, and Adobe Audition to edit larger soundscapes. Some recording tips along with more details on my recording etiquette can be found here. Some more info on Recording and Tips on the subject can be found here.

I would like to use your voice for a project and/or have an audio piece commissioned from you! Great! First, you need to send me a fan mail with your email and script, and any info you think may be important to go along with these things. That is how we will stay in contact, and we can go from there!

Can you record a Happy Birthday/Get Well! message for me? My name is _________. No, I am deeply sorry, But I cannot record any personalized messages unless I am commissioned to do so. If I do one then EVERYONE will want one. :( I don’t have that amount of time. I would love to wish everyone a happy birthday personally, but making everyone a personalized post would take ages. Which is why I do no names other than fictional characters! But know I do care about each of you deeply. I may not record an audio, but I do wish you all the best regardless! <3

How did you get started in Voice Acting? Any Tips? Honestly, just keep auditioning for things. I was asked to do something for my first gig. You may have to audition. A good place to start is Voice Acting Alliance — this is where you will get roles and meet other actors and such.

The next step (or probably first) is to get a good mic. The Samson Q2U is cheap, but only passable. Highly recommended to save up for a better one though, like a Blue Yeti. Very popular and for good reason, too. An important factor is to get organized and stay that way. Voice acting is definitely a time consumer, and you need to have a good balance between auditioning for “just enough” projects to get you going, but not so many that you’ll be overwhelmed.

The most important aspect is to have fun with what you do. People will notice if you’re just doing something to get it over with, vs actually putting irrefutable effort into what you’re doing. That’s also what the difference is between Voice Over and Voice Acting — how much the audience can believe you. And you’ll have to do a good job of that before you can gain your ranks as a Voice Actor.
