I've been very lucky to have had the opportunity to play a diverse cast of characters in the short time I've been a voice actor.
Ashly BurchI've been a soldier, I've been a bunch of little girls, all sorts of roles that I would not have been able to be with on camera context because I just don't look the part.
Ashly BurchI feel like I'm always being challenged by my voice acting roles, for multiple different reasons. I still get nervous every time I book a gig.
Ashly BurchI've always wanted to be a voice actor. Well I think at first I wanted to be a singer. Then in middle school I auditioned for a musical and I only really cared because I wanted to sing in it. I had to act as well as part of the audition and that was the first time I ever really acted, and I was like 'Oh hey, this is fun, I like doing this.'
Ashly BurchThere are a few pretty fundamental differences. In voice acting, if you are doing game recording, for the most part you are going to be by yourself in a studio. With game voice acting you are constructing everything for yourself pretty much. You're thinking about what the other characters could be doing, trying to imagine the scene, you're constructing the entire environment for yourself.
