Nerdy Show Prime: Voice Acting! Part 2

Part 2 of our Nerdy Show Prime 2-part feature on VOICE ACTING! When it comes to animation – voice actors define a character. Sure, there’s the writing and the animation, but it’s the voice that really sells the character. What would the animated characters be without their iconic voices bringing each of those characters to life? What’s the difference between a good anime dub and a bad one? It’s the voices. In this two-part Nerdy Show Prime episode, we celebrate voice actors, their legacy in animation and other mediums. We discuss the history of voice acting, famous voice actors, defining roles and interview some greats of the field. In our second part of this double-length voice acting feature we speak to prolific anime voice actor, Vic Mignogna, star of Full Metal Alchemist, as well as Mr. Badass himself: Steve Blum who’s put hair on your chest as Wolverine, and Spike Spiegel. In this episode we also discuss the origin of voice acting: radio dramas, as well as share some voice acting secrets about our own radio drama, Dungeons & Doritos. This is our first fan-commissioned episode!
