Calax Posted March 29, 2006 Posted March 29, 2006 I'm just wondering where game companies draw talent for the voices of the various characters. I admit that I'd love to be a voice actor but I doubt that'd happen. Victor of the 5 year fan fic competition! Kevin Butler will awesome your face off.
Krookie Posted March 29, 2006 Posted March 29, 2006 I think a lot of the time the devs. hear your voice from another game/movie. I know that the Activision used a few guys from Band of Brothers to do voice acting in CoD2.

LoneWolf16 Posted March 31, 2006 Posted March 31, 2006 Something to think about at least....not as a full-time career, mind you, but as an extra influx of cash and fun to do.

Atreides Posted April 1, 2006 Posted April 1, 2006 I was impressed that Tara Stone voices both Toots and Princess Clara in Drawn Together. I had no idea untill I wiki'd it. I'd give her my support for some NWN2 vo's but I'm not sure how Obsidian and her could work the details out. Spreading beauty with my katana.

Azarkon Posted April 2, 2006 Posted April 2, 2006 (edited) Am a fan of Kath Soucie in Icewind Dale II & BG II, personally. A person's voice probably changes over time, though. But I imagine professional voice actors/actresses likely possess tone ranges that normal people don't. Edited April 2, 2006 by Azarkon There are doors
