Damn dude... this guy was literally my inspiration for getting into voice acting. I'm not a professional by any means, but if I had never played DD and heard him doing his thing, it would have never even occurred to me to start using my own voice for VO or cartoons.
How does one get into that?
People have been telling me that I have "a voice for radio" ever since I was a teenager, but I've never really been into show biz, I've been fixing computers and cars my whole life. I've been considering just recording a long portfolio of a bunch of different voices and start sending it off to random companies but I can't help feeling like that's not my best move.
Here is a super useful information thread. https://voiceacting.boards.net/thread/5286/get-started-voice-acting
There's also a discord server attached, which feels cool and diverse in terms of what kinds of people are there — both hobbyists and professionals
Thanks!
