A video that's a bit out of my comfort zone where I do one hundred percent accurate impressions of my coworkers' characters on camera. OH and answer questions. How did I do?!
Thank you to ShadyCarrot for editing this video (and voicing "Caitlin")! Give him a follow on Bsky: https://bsky.app/profile/shadycarrot.bsky.social
Online classes/Things to read/Coaching etc. that my VA friends and I would personally recommend for people wanting to start/beginner level:
- Read "Voice-Over Voice Actor: The Extended Edition" by Tara Platt and Yuri Lowenthal! I have this book myself. It's super informative and I often refer to it when I'm feeling lost.
- June Yoon's Swiss Cheese analogy - https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/swiss-cheese-analogy-june-yoon (can also be found in podcast format on Red Scythe)
- Red Scythe Studios: https://redscythe.com/
- Nightingale Voices - https://www.nightingale-voices.com/votraining (They have Private 1-on-1 Coaching services, Workshops, and Classes!)
- Stephanie Sheh's class for beginners (couldn't find a link to this one, so would recommend following her social media on Bsky/threads for updates)
- NYAV Academy: https://x.com/nyav_academy (Stephanie Sheh promoted this one and I found beginner/intermediate classes hosted by her and other prominent voice actors there)
- Voice Acting Mastery with Crispin Freeman: https://www.voiceactingmastery.com/classes (LA classes, online classes and private online coaching is available!)
- Ace Studios (https://acestudiosla.com/)
- Joe Zieja's Course: https://learnvoiceacting.com/ (Take time to decide if this course is for you. Free training options are available!)
I'm sure there's more that I missed out on, but these are the ones my friends and I have collected! Thank you to my voice actor friends Ryan (RyanDoVO) and Gale (GaleTheVO) for helping me compile this list.
This got lost after I destroyed my Twitter account, so I'll say it here again.
Thank you to Glitch Productions, Liam Vickers, and Katie Hood for trusting me with the voice of Lizzy.
Thank you to the fandom for supporting the show and our work until the very end; We wouldn't be where we are today without your support.
Until next time! o7
