#acting tips

How long have you done voice acting comic dubs and are there any tips you would give to those like me who aspire to be someone like you in the future?

(Also, I love your interpretation of Pierrot, he sounds so baby and I wanna *squish*)

Hello! Apologies for how in depth this might be:

In general, I've been acting/voice acting for almost 11 years! I didn't really start doing more comic dubs until a few years into my journey, hyperfocused on auditioning for projects left and right; I still do, don't get me wrong. Initially I did a handful of hazbin comic dubs, but I was struggling to make time to do the line dubbing, the editing, sound effects search, etc. especially because I wasn't living by myself and there was that anxiety performing in front of people in a recording process. There was a big hiatus in between comic dubs until I found TFC last October and started dubbing those scenes, then I got my own place in December and I became more open and able to do comic dubs.

As far as tips: pursuing acting as a whole means there will be a LOT of rejection, and I mean A LOT, and that's okay! I've lost count as to how many projects I've been rejected from. The important thing is to learn, accept, and take the loss with a grain of salt, try your best not to be discouraged. There are so many jobs, so many people, so many opportunities; you can't win em all, but there's always something for you!

Make connections! We're a social species. You're in fandoms and you like these comics or these scenes? See if someone wants to join you in dubbing! Collaboration works wonders. It’s definitely important to practice your craft. Sign up for classes! These will for sure help you get a sense of the business and how to enhance your performances; I know they’re incredibly expensive, find SOMETHING that you can do without breaking the bank.

I’d love to help you out more if you have questions! Feel free to reach out anytime! I wrote up my own 6 week course for intro to voice acting as well if you’re interested (and believe me, it won't cost an arm and a leg)!

Descriptive dialogue, as I mean, is when the scene relies on the actor's description. In Shakespeare, for example, accessibility of props or accessories on stage were not the same as today. There wasn't as much context that we can take for granted today in theatre, there weren't as much sound affects available, general knowledge to understand the play's specific meanings and how a character was supposed to look like. If there was, there is little to no stage notes written in Shakespeare's play except the familiar "thunder" or which characters come in. Shakespeare instead relies on stories or dialogue describing what's in front of the audience. This is told by the characters to give context for a scene. But how do we make this sound normal? It's easy to look through big piles of dialogue with really no substance, real tone or character development. But it’s context. And context is the most important thing in any play.

ᝰ.ᐟ example ; Act 1 Sc.3 . Macbeth . A very simple and easy example of this, one of the most active but a good jumping off point.

I use He/She pronouns and I go to the one and only university Wilrise University!!!

I am the main leader/director and actor for the theater department of the university too which I think is pretty swag
