"You could say that doing a certain voice requires different mic technique, but really at the end of the day it is all still acting. Whether I’m doing a VG or an animated series/movie I still have to do my work as an actor in the same way: looking at the script, asking questions, making choices. When I record a VG though often I might be running down hundreds of lines/loops in an hour, so I’m simply reading each line a few different ways and moving on at a pretty fast pace, and usually by myself in the booth. With animation, it might be original, where it will be animated afterwards, then I will get to read off the other actors in the room, which is always a treat. With dubbed animation I will once again be alone, but having to work technically matching mouth flap for timing so my performance matches the movement of the already animated mouth of the character."
