I could not agree with this more 😤 If you’re a VA who wants to work in games, play games! 🎮 Failing that, watch streams and playthroughs on Twitch, Kick, or YouTube 👀 Whether you’re a voice artist coming from commercials, audiobooks, and animation, or an actor coming from stage and film, you need to understand how voicing for games differs from those fields 👏 #voiceactor #voiceover #voiceacting #games #indiegames #actor

Succinct and 100% accurate. Researching via playing or watching others play videogames (whether it's via YouTube or livestreamers on Twitch, YouTube etc) is the best way to understand this genre of Voice Acting, especially the types of performance required and how it differs from others like Commercial or Corporate. Ontop of that, it's also rather fun and a wonderful way to spend your leisure time, particularly with a few friends to share in the experience! #voiceactor #voiceacting #videogames

I interviewed our Casting Director and this was the clear takeaway... Voice Actors often ask me "how can I break into video games work." I thought this advise was brilliant 👇 - Actors who are also active gamers seem to get cast in games a lot! - However, Casting Directors aren't specifically looking for this - These actors tend to have a great understanding of the material - They instinctively know how a line or an effort should be performed - They have an enthusiasm & passion for the work - They are often easier to direct and are familiar with the language I am by no means suggesting an actor has to be a gamer to be a voice actor in games! But, if this is an area of the industry an actor wants to get into... Consider getting into the industry via this area... Do those last two lines make sense? I was trying to be clever! #VoiceActing #GameAudio #Develop2024

At 4pm today Rose-Mary Caddick and I are going to be streaming the Until Dawn remake (which you can watch here: https://lnkd.in/eqhRtiK8). As a big fan of the original, I simply must impress upon you how groundbreaking it is as a choice-driven narrative experience. I'm not even a big horror fan, in fact I'm a wimp™️. But if you love a cinematic experience that transcends the boundaries between a video game and a stylish slasher movie, it's a must play. Ballistic Moon are at the helm for this grand glow up, and (because a lot of people assume it's JUST a glow up) here's a few things you should know about the remake... 💀 There's a whole new score composed by Mark Korven (The Lighthouse, The Witch) 💀 The prologue has been completely reworked and new cinematography and interactions will help flesh out the story for Josh Washington (Rami Malek) and his family. 💀 The totems aren't in the same place anymore (!), so if you need a reason to replay and think "well I know it inside out" think again. There's even a sixth totem referred to as "hunger"; no idea what that is yet but can't wait to find out. 💀 It's been completely rebuilt in Unreal Engine 5, which is going to make the dirt, sweat, tears, bruises and the viscious blood and gore look next level. As UE5 has a marked effect on fluids, running water, oozing blood and melting snow will look especially pretty. 💀 The fixed camera angle is now third person to bring everyone closer into the action and character interactions. Out tomorrow on PS5, ennit.

Looking for voice actors who want to share revenue on my upcoming game KillTheDevil (working title). Characters talking to each other and interacting with the world, advancing the story in short 1-minute long clips. The characters are part of a covert operation to investigate a paranormal dungeon with ghosts and demons. Think like ghostbusters combined with terminator vibe-ish. Developed in Unreal 5.
