Welcome to the world of Voice Actors!
Here you can see tips and experiences from the actors and producers point of view in online projects, as well as endeavors of going pro. From frustrations to accomplishments, as well as providing resourses for others who wish to persue voice acting as either a hobby or career.
True, this is still a fandub, but the search for auditions was wide and the competition was steep, so I was way surprised when I got the role (because of the recording quality on this computer, I usually don't get parts unless I'm the only one who auditioned for them...but that soon will change buwahahaha! Yes, I saved up for a nice desktop that I will be buying this next month!) of Maleficent and the final product came out pretty quick too (trying to beat the clock on the official English release) so I wanted to share this~
Another thing I'll be able to fix with my new compy will be a better video card (fingers crossed) and so the picture won't lag when I try to time lines to the voice flaps...that would have way helped in my first half of lines.
Also, knowing more context would have helped too. I had the trailer script and the Japansese trailer to go by for what on earth I was saying. For the first scene, it would have been helpful to better understand Maleficent's motivation in where she was going in her conversation with Terra.
I do love how my later lines turned out ^^ Shivers and woo-hoo-hoo! If I ever make a dubbing demo for youtube or something, I'll wanna use those clips lol X3
Of course you can fan-spaz about Birth by Sleep with me too, I'm eager to learn all the plot twists that we will find in this game!
Just wanted to share a little triumph in my long endeavors of a long-running series 
For those who don't know, I have been working on YuYu Hakusho Beyond! a sequel series to the fabulous YuYu Hakusho since my last year of college, which will date me as I say 5 years of working and tweaking the story. Yes, I only am into releasing the second saga, but I have 22 sagas currently outlined.
So anyway, I went to Anime Vegas in hopes of presenting it to Justin Cook. Now we did get to 'geek out' as he termed it when he later signed my autograph book about YuYu Hakusho (and WOOT he's a big fan with all of the mangas in Japanese and CDs and such) but he explained the show wasn't popular enough for it to be profitable to liscense the songs for Eizou Hakusho or for someone from the U.S. to attain the liscense and continue the series. He did seem interested in looking up my sequel.
We interrupt this story of achievment to bring you scenes from Anime Vegas:
Me dressed as Yokira with Jusin who plays Yusuke
When I got home from the con and got my computer back, however, I found a note that someone had printed off my scripts and shared them with her coworkers. They said it was pretty awesome for a fanfiction and I could be a great script writer with experience. That was cool enough as it was, but here's the real victory: These co-workers were FUNimationg VAs! 
Included were Chris Sabat, Kyle Hebert, Jerry Jewell, and Aaron Dismuke. Later I was told that said person sharing did a table reading of all my episodes out so far with Chris Sabat and Justin Cook (yay, he got to read it after all!) and how they enjoyed it!
So those who realize the painstaking process I go through with getting Beyond! written and how much I've put into it understand how this is a refreshing second wind for me. I've been fangirl spazzing for over a week now...am I going on two now? Well, I wanted to share this little bit of happiness of success and vitory with everyone, especially those aspiring ones out there, that maybe it can work. As Vic Mignogna told me when I mentioned my sequel series to him, "Go for it, you may get lucky."

I hope to update here again soon with:
Trailer to Spiral Mangadub (co-producing)
English Fandub of Kingdom Hearts Birth By Sleep (actress...can't say too much about it now, but it's for the KH community, so I'm excited I got a part!)
Maybe some Eizou Hakusho Fandub Updates as I've taken to mixing it myself as I've gone through two mixers that have gone MIA
End
