Danetto Zi's Lounge Discussions

I would much rather have an adult voice actor who can do kid voices or at least have the right vocal range for the age that fits the character.

The voices of Lisa Simpson and Bart Simpson are played by adults and I have never once thought about it while watching. I think of the Smurfs and Family Guy and tons of other animated shows all voiced by adults playing children. That's the talent. I don't think the age of the adult matters, it's the voices they can do. I wouldn't think a child could pull it off, and like you said, if the character is timeless e.g. Bart Simpson, one would eventually have to recast.

anime characters are usually little boys and girls. but usually young women play them. which is awesome, coz these anime voice actors are absolutely incredible

I agree with OB and Suzanne. Adult actors who can do character and kid's voices are usually the smarter choice - they are easier to work with from a union and hours-at-work perspective and tend to bring more consistency and professionalism. I know several adults who voice kid characters and the audiences seem to love the shows and don't think about it at all.

Thanks everyone, you have made me feel much more comfortable with using adults for this animation.

Oh, wow Too many to mention I like independent films most recently I liked Evil Dead Rises and Asteroid City.

Chasing Amy!

A lot of 80s and 90s movies, Danetto Zi. "Rain Man," "Back to the Future," "TMNT," "Forrest Gump," "Hackers," etc.

i see^^

really nobody? xd are there only filmmakers here who are looking for producers? ahaha

Noa Keiko Maria Burnette is a costume designer, Danetto Zi (www.stage32.com/profile/1078273/about).

You can search for other costume designers in the Browse Members Section (www.stage32.com/people?name=&location=&roles=Costume+Designer).

Hi Danetto Zi! They're here, can just take people a minute to come out of their shell. What kinds of genres/projects do you specialize in?

i have some film projects that i would like some costume designers for :)

Not really. They are all amazing and fun rides and it never hurts to follow the path from one to the next but Chapter 4 is just an incredible feat in action filmmaking all on its own. It's long but wildly entertaining.

Thanks Sam.

lol srsl? xd its a fucking action film with people beating each other up...

sure if u need somebody to read i can do that xd

You're welcome, Danetto Zi. I watched the "Movie World: Little Acts of Kindness" trailer. Looks like an exciting travelogue series. I subscribed to your channel to watch it.

Thank you, I will have one or two sent to you as soon as I can. Unless Stage 32 has a way of doing that here, I might need an e-mail address.

thanks for watching Maurice ;) as you can see i have some shorts and clips on my channel already ;) feel free to watch, like, comment and share my videos ;) salud

You're welcome, Danetto. I'll definitely check out your clips and shorts.

Worry less about what others will think and more about what you have to offer. Go for it! Life is too short to overthink everything. Best wishes to you!

You have to understand why you are wary of Auditions. In reality, Casting is simply looking for a match for their role. If you don't match it, or can't offer something within your performance that makes them question their original choice to look at you closer, then you will get turned down. This has nothing to do with you, it's simply their choice. Understand the role, learn the lines, work on a presentation that is different from others and still fit's the role's outlines. Once you do that be on time, willing to try something different and present what you do with confidence. Then forget it and move on to the next one. Each audition is a different performance, but you aren't being judged on it, nor should you expect a 'round of applause' for it.

Josiah Bhola Hillaire - it's human nature to be nervous to perform in front of someone, especially a crowd. Over time, those fears will subside. Don't let anyone get you down. Just go for it. And if you don't get a part, don't be afraid to ask what you could try differently next time.

Thank you so much

Great question. In my experience as a "performer" (TV, sports announcing, speaking/playing sports in front of thousands), it's not the AUDITION that frightens folks -- it's the fear of failure, "messing up" or humiliation for all to see. There's a great quote by Dr. Wayne Dyer that says, "we have to stop investing in the good opinion of others". Spot on. Once you divest in others' opinions, life changes. P.S. DIVESTING doesn't necessarily mean that you don't "care what others think" -- it often means that you've come to understand that what THEY think has its place -- but that that place isn't going to determine how YOU feel about you or your performance.
