Gopi Passiflora Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 Sometimes people in Second Life think my voice is weird. I agree with them - I guess it's because it's still awkward for me to voice. So I'm definitely not a good voice actor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garnet Psaltery Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 People actually tell you that? How rude of them. I used to act with Voice but gave it up when my teeth became a big problem. One day that'll be fixed but until then it's no mic for me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wulfie Reanimator Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 There are a lot of weird characters in a lot of stories. Having a weird voice is an asset. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Osforia Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 I have a thick accent and a disability. Nobody would understand me on mic. I do love unusual voices though. Really high and really low ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Hexem Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 Some people say my voice is nice and not what they expect. I still like to use that old line, "Face for radio and a voice for print". 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TT120 Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 I actually do have a "voice" I have been told all my life I have a deep rich voice that would be good for radio. I've also heard I have a face for radio too....lol 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rat Luv Posted February 3, 2021 Share Posted February 3, 2021 I don't know! I've never thought about it...I was once told I sound like a monkey when I laugh 🙊 My parents made me do speech and drama classes as a child, only because when I was younger, I used to mutter (from shyness) and people couldn't hear me...but I think some of you are being hard on yourselves, there is no 'perfect' voice! I read somewhere that the most requested accents for voiceovers in Britain are from Birmingham and Glasgow...and they are very strong accents to people from outside the UK.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maryanne Solo Posted February 3, 2021 Share Posted February 3, 2021 When asked to provide an alternative explanation/description of a technical issue that had been presented by a tutor to a class, upon finishing my short oration, one female student blurted out loudly, (in the middle of a class of mostly guys), "omg I want you to read me bedtime stories!" whereupon her two girlfriends yelled out YES!!! We do too! If I had been taking a sip of coffee I would have snorted it straight out my nose I was so taken aback. 😳 "You speak so beautifully" she went on to explain, with her friends nodding in agreement. Stunned and with the whole class, (including the tutor), in stitches of riotous laughter I replied "Well anyone can speak clearly, confidently and precisely if they put the thought and effort into it". followed by "thank you so much I am very humbled indeed". I had to exit the class I was so embarrassed and later in the lunch room the tutor jokingly asked "What's the story with you and the highlands girls"? huh? ^.^ HUH? and all the other teachers were like "ello.. ello.. ello.. wots all this then"?! 😮😲😋 And I'm like "omg give it a rest will you" laughing as they're all respectful married family men. But I only have an "ordinary" voice really. It's how you use it and what you say I think. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordyn McGregor Posted February 3, 2021 Share Posted February 3, 2021 Nope! I sound like a 12yr old and used to claim that I was the babysitter when telemarketers would call. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bree Giffen Posted February 3, 2021 Share Posted February 3, 2021 I think I have a clear voice with a good delivery. At least that's what my supervisor said when I used to talk on the phone for a living. I was pretty shy and not very talkative growing up so taking a job with constant talking really helped. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
