Voice Description

I would describe my voice as akin to an airplane and a cricket. I choose an airplane because of its constant humm with the hint of great power within. A cricket because it can chirp its music over and over while sure in its practice and ability to recognize other chirps.

-- Just a few broad variations of my voice are soft and airy, gravely, creaky, whiney and nasal, sali-val, lateral fricatives, etc.
-- I have a great stage voice used for projecting and singing.
-- I easily create realistic high-pitched melodic voices, female sounding or robotic for character voices.

-- I competently produce Gollum's voice from (Lord of the Rings), Stitch's voice from (Lilo & Stitch), Jack Skellington from (Nightmare Before Christmas). Also eaily created are pirates voices, foreign accents in English, cute cartoon characters, young adult voices (male), army recruits or computer nerds.

My Voice Experience

-- When I was not yet of drinking or even driving age for that matter I recall hearing the voice actors of a video game titled (Lunar The Silver Star Story Complete) during one of their outtake sessions. It wasn’t until I heard a their voices from that television screen on which was emblazed in gold and yellow colors the word “Outtakes” that I knew what bound me so tightly to the grace and beauty of animation. For each actor I heard in that game at that moment I could visualize two completely different people. They brought such realism and emotion to their character that I started to practice from that moment forward to do what they did and more.

Experience I have with voice acting extends to:

-- Personal projects (create fictional characters, vocalize their motivations, and sometimes read books to my father.)

-- Social gatherings (I play Dungeons & Dragons and I always have a voice for any character I play, even female.)

-- Listen, watch, and learn from others.

Additional Skills

- Right off the bat people should know I am a very friendly and expressive person. In other words I get along well with most everyone and I follow direction well. Included in this package is a ton of common sense. A little saying I know is that with common sense comes greater understanding and achievement.

- After owning my own recording equipment and experiencing its joys for a number of years now I have come to gain an awareness of the technologies strengths and weakness.

- Growing up with computers all around has its advantages at times such as this. I know how to cleanly edit recordings, cancel background noise, add background music, cut and join clips, encode and decode formats, and splice audio with video. I am familiar performing these operations using programs like as Pratt and Creative Studio.

- Elucidating slightly on my vocal description:
-- I wish to point out that have a large lung capacity so I can actually hold that (Phantom of the Opera) note.
-- My strengths lie in expressive characters where unique tone, vocals, and accents are required.
-- Though, I feel the need to work on adding a level depth to my voice and by using my lower ranges more efficiently.
