what are the others like in the studio when you voice act for the MHA character Fatgum?

obtuse wagon
#

Actually with anime, they record only one actor at a time. I've only met or mingled with other actors at cons. They only do one actor recording at a time because of the time needed to match the lip sync.

You Voice Act, but do you also sing? (If not, would you still try our for a role if they sing?)

I think I could hold a tune, but I don't read for a lot of roles that include singing. The ones I have, I didn't end up being cast for. Heheh, maybe that's a sign.

how long does it take to voice record a whole episode?

Out of the characters you voiced, which one gave you the most sentiment?

What are some anime tropes you like and which you dislike?

I like when the animation makes everyone all Chibi for a few seconds. Not wild about screaming, high pitched girls. Also, wish everybody wouldn't say "huh?" or repeat what the other character says, like, all the time. XD

What are your two favorite things about conventions? What about two least favorite things?

Getting to meet fans face to face, and traveling to places I wouldn't get to otherwise. Not keen on body odor from wearing cosplay too long, also crowds can make it hard to navigate the dealer's hall.

marsh lily
#
InvisibleFly21#2997 aka InvisibleFly | Fat Gum's Chef

When you get a role, do you do anything to prepare for it? Or do you just go with the flow once you’re in the recording booth?

obtuse wagon
#

Improv is one of the most essential skills to master in any type of acting. You have to think on your feet when given auditions or direction, and commit to a performance. Also be ready to tweak it with a higher pitch or more gravel. Ya have to be able to key in on bullet points on the character summary on the audition script and dial in a character on the fly. With bit parts, the director will give me the freedom to just create something. Only parameters being maybe age, or the type of background discussion is going on in the scene behind the main characters.

Do you give out any autographs?

obtuse wagon
#

Nowadays, voice actors will hold online autograph streams where you preorder the print you want signed. Ya watch the live stream so you can see your item signed, then its mailed to you. It's a much appreciated way to support the actors during this tough economic time.

Do you act in theater or live action stuff or do you just do voice acting?

What was the most interesting fan interaction you have ever had?

obtuse wagon

This actually goes back to before I was a voice actor. I used to a DJ on Radio Disney. One time, Make-a-wish kids came to the studio. That was a very emotional time.

marsh lily

Miro#4842

Marvel or DC?

obtuse wagon

Mostly Marvel, but I do love the DC characters, and they've been doing much better lately. The Fandome event that DC held this weekend dropped some really cool trailers. Can't wait for the new Wonder Woman, Batman, and director's cut of Justice League.

beans#7035 aka All For Beans

Have you ever gotten attached to a character?

obtuse wagon
#

Gohan has been special for many reasons. He is well rounded. I was a fan of DBZ before I was blessed to become a voice actor on it. My connection to the show launched a career that I have wanted since childhood.

marsh lily
#
𝐭𝐚𝐥𝐚#7777

who is someone you audition for but you didnt get the role?

obtuse wagon
#

Well, I did read for Ichigo on Bleach. But I'm glad Johnny Bosch got it. I have gotten to audition for all the huge games and animated projects. Getting to be in Star Wars is a bucket list item for me. I have the mindset that the director or studio knows what they are doing, and they make the right choices. But like any other actor, selfishly, I want to be cast for everything I read for...but that just isn't realistic. The batting average is insane in voice acting. Out of 100 projects, you tend to be cast on a handful.

marsh lily
#
Jack.#2020 aka big funny monkey

Other than fatgum, who would you want to be?

obtuse wagon

I'm not picky. Getting cast is a rush onto itself. Probably not any of the ladies. I have a wide acting range, but prooooobably not right for them. XD

Which did you prefer to voice, FatGum or Kiba?

obtuse wagon

Either. They sound exactly the same to me. They also sound like Gohan. I have ONE teen voice, but luckily they all are different types of characters. If I am doing my job right, they all sound distinguished enough from an emotional perspective.

Are there any roles that were particularly memorable or sentimental to you?

Kamina. Dude was the manliest man in anime. Or...."MANime". Only a small part of the Gurren Lagann saga but makes a lasting impact. A great beacon of positivity. He not only inspired Simon, but a legion of fans.

marsh lily
#
SomeStupidGoat#8008 aka Fatgum more like Hotgum

Was the transition from in studio to home recording particularly difficult? I know Funimation did a small video on the matter.

obtuse wagon
#

Bless the engineers, who are the unsung heroes of the pandemic in this industry. They have all gone above and beyond to walk the voice actors through some computer skills. It's been hard on the wallet, since many have had to do home recording upgrades to make everything broadcast quality. They also have the unenviable task of mixing all these voice files recorded on different mics in different studio environments and making it all sound consistent. Whenever the recording apps glitch or internet drops out, that drives production to a screeching halt. Can be quite stressful when that happens. Overall, things for me, personally, have been pretty smooth.

Since you watch AEW, who is your favourite?

Too tough to pick just one. I got on board because of Jericho. But I have instantly been a huge supporter of Darby Allin. Pretty much into most of the roster, really. I think there needs to be some more breakouts in the women's division. Abadon is my fave so far in there.

Vee#8039 aka big funny monkey

What comes first? Milk or cereal?

Cereal. Though I could see why some pour milk first. What if you pour TOO much cereal and don't have enough milk. I love soggy cereal the most. It turns the milk into the flavor of the cereal. Faves include Peanut Butter Cap'n Crunch, Honey Nut Cheerios, and Frosted Flakes.

Hi Kyle, thanks so much for taking the time to do this AMA with the server. Any parting words/life advice before you go? 🥰

obtuse wagon
#

Two wrongs don't make a right. But three rights make a left. Seriously, if you have a dream, take baby steps towards achieving it. Trying and not having things work out beats wondering "what if". Plus, you'll learn things about yourself when things don't go your way. The end goal shouldn't be to be rich or famous....it should be making a living doing something you love. That way, it never feels like work. Thank you, everyone! You can catch me on Twitter and Instagram (kylehebert) and on Twitch (gohanwithyourownbadself). Thanks for supporting MHA, anime, and pop culture. It's a blast getting to be a part of it all. Have a great rest of your weekend. Wear a mask when ya go out. Stay safe!
