1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:02,559 Speaker 1: Hey, Christy, Hey, Will, how are you. I'm really great. 2 00:00:02,600 --> 00:00:06,000 Speaker 1: Lisa Schaeffer's here, Lisa Schaefer, who was a voice director 3 00:00:06,080 --> 00:00:08,640 Speaker 1: and directed a little show called Kim Possible. That's right, 4 00:00:08,680 --> 00:00:10,039 Speaker 1: So we're gonna learn about the other side of the 5 00:00:10,080 --> 00:00:22,239 Speaker 1: industry today, So stick around. Lisa Schaefer is here with us. 6 00:00:23,120 --> 00:00:26,360 Speaker 1: Lisa Schaeffer, Oh my goodness, this feels like we're home. 7 00:00:26,720 --> 00:00:29,240 Speaker 1: It does a little bit, right, although the number of 8 00:00:29,720 --> 00:00:33,519 Speaker 1: button and I need to be able to yeah, But 9 00:00:33,560 --> 00:00:36,519 Speaker 1: we were thinking about the number of times that we 10 00:00:36,640 --> 00:00:39,959 Speaker 1: actually recorded together was miniscule. Sadly, it was like, how 11 00:00:39,960 --> 00:00:41,880 Speaker 1: many times was it? You must know, you know, every 12 00:00:42,240 --> 00:00:44,760 Speaker 1: five times? Yeah, at the most, because it was in 13 00:00:44,840 --> 00:00:47,839 Speaker 1: the way beginning, and then you ended up recording with 14 00:00:48,040 --> 00:00:51,800 Speaker 1: John Diggio and Nicole Sullivan. Yes, we would do that, 15 00:00:52,040 --> 00:00:55,600 Speaker 1: and then Nancy was separate them sometimes and is always separate. 16 00:00:55,720 --> 00:00:58,760 Speaker 1: I don't think we did one session. I remember that 17 00:00:58,880 --> 00:01:01,560 Speaker 1: it was you were not there, but Nancy was in 18 00:01:01,640 --> 00:01:05,560 Speaker 1: with up with Johnny and in the beginning being okay, 19 00:01:05,800 --> 00:01:08,520 Speaker 1: and then she was like, no, I don't like that. Will. Yeah. 20 00:01:08,600 --> 00:01:10,959 Speaker 1: She actually gave me a very nice compment. She said, 21 00:01:10,959 --> 00:01:12,800 Speaker 1: you're wow, you are really great in this show, and 22 00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:16,320 Speaker 1: I was like, of course, I might have made that 23 00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:18,440 Speaker 1: up in my own head. I think it happened, and 24 00:01:18,440 --> 00:01:20,560 Speaker 1: I'd like to remember it happened, but I should remember 25 00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:22,680 Speaker 1: it that way. We should probably also tell our wonderful 26 00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:25,360 Speaker 1: listening audience and watching a viewing audience. I should say 27 00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:28,320 Speaker 1: who Lisa is exactly. Lisa is one of the people 28 00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:34,320 Speaker 1: most responsible for recording us on Kimpossible, like essentially starting 29 00:01:34,440 --> 00:01:39,240 Speaker 1: from the very beginning, and by Chris did the pilot. 30 00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:42,200 Speaker 1: He did the pilot, and he did I think a 31 00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:45,240 Speaker 1: few of the early episodes, a very few in the beginning, 32 00:01:45,280 --> 00:01:49,160 Speaker 1: and then we would record Saturday mornings after your p 33 00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:54,840 Speaker 1: s A T class because she was in Yeah, and 34 00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:56,960 Speaker 1: then you went off to college and we recorded you 35 00:01:56,960 --> 00:01:58,960 Speaker 1: from New York and you were bell on Broadway and 36 00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:02,400 Speaker 1: we recorded you from or Will Never Left. He was 37 00:02:02,760 --> 00:02:06,960 Speaker 1: I'm always he was in Woodland Hills exactly. You know, 38 00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:09,080 Speaker 1: I was Burbank. I was in Burbank at the time. 39 00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:14,280 Speaker 1: I didn't realize, well, when we wait, when did we start? Three? 40 00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:20,240 Speaker 1: Two thousand two and three was like casting and pred 41 00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:23,120 Speaker 1: and I think two thousand three, two thousand four was 42 00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:26,400 Speaker 1: season Then, yes, I wasn't. Lisa also has a really 43 00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:30,600 Speaker 1: amazing memory. Remember something exactly. She called me Dan for 44 00:02:30,600 --> 00:02:35,079 Speaker 1: the first like six episodes. I called you dude, like 45 00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:38,760 Speaker 1: I call everybody. No, no, no, no. I went freelance 46 00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:41,280 Speaker 1: for like I left. I was a Disney employee when 47 00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:46,359 Speaker 1: we started, and I was a scheduler and a coordinator 48 00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:49,519 Speaker 1: and and really that was my day job. And then 49 00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:52,080 Speaker 1: they were letting me direct and direct and direct, and 50 00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:57,120 Speaker 1: finally Jamie Thomas, in the head of casting, was like, okay, fly, 51 00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:00,360 Speaker 1: what was the first show you ever directed? Well? I 52 00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:04,800 Speaker 1: directed at a smaller animation company called The Deek Entertainment 53 00:03:05,639 --> 00:03:10,120 Speaker 1: of my Childhood, So I did The Wacky World of 54 00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:12,880 Speaker 1: Tech Savery was one of the first ones I did. 55 00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:16,720 Speaker 1: I did some of the Inspector Gadget readers. They did 56 00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:18,920 Speaker 1: old school Inspector gadgett too, though deck they were like 57 00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:22,280 Speaker 1: around they created it. But that was before I got there. 58 00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:25,160 Speaker 1: And you know, that's where I met, Like they had 59 00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:28,959 Speaker 1: Tara and they had Cree Discovered from Toronto like when 60 00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:35,560 Speaker 1: they were kids. Penny on Incopord brought her back and 61 00:03:35,880 --> 00:03:41,320 Speaker 1: Race LaMarsh and all of them people. So when I 62 00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:44,600 Speaker 1: came over to Disney, I went back because it was 63 00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:48,560 Speaker 1: to earn my stripes as a Disney So I went 64 00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:51,240 Speaker 1: back and was a talent coordinator and a booker and 65 00:03:52,200 --> 00:03:54,160 Speaker 1: schedule and then some people came to you and said, 66 00:03:54,720 --> 00:03:57,520 Speaker 1: we've got a show. Yeah, my Mark and Bob came 67 00:03:57,800 --> 00:04:01,080 Speaker 1: and and we started working. I was casting their show. 68 00:04:01,200 --> 00:04:05,680 Speaker 1: I was casting it and coordinating it and then directing 69 00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:08,560 Speaker 1: it and doing all the auditions. And you know, did 70 00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:12,040 Speaker 1: you ever cast it? Could you cast us? Well? Me 71 00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:14,480 Speaker 1: and Mark and Bob, I mean, you know, Jamie and 72 00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:18,919 Speaker 1: Dave and who team, the whole team? I remember? Okay, 73 00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:22,159 Speaker 1: So I remember our animaltic that was used for the 74 00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:26,440 Speaker 1: audition process. Do you remember that? Really? It was? Yeah? 75 00:04:26,760 --> 00:04:29,599 Speaker 1: I think so it was like, well, do you maybe 76 00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:31,440 Speaker 1: she remembers better than me? No, no, but no, I 77 00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:34,920 Speaker 1: just remember that what had happened was they put they 78 00:04:34,960 --> 00:04:37,880 Speaker 1: had put me, or maybe I came into the studio 79 00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:41,479 Speaker 1: in like Disney voices and then I put myself on 80 00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:45,000 Speaker 1: tape and they had showed me KPS like you know, 81 00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:49,400 Speaker 1: her her picture, her description. Bob and Mark kind of 82 00:04:49,440 --> 00:04:51,440 Speaker 1: like helped coax me through it because I hadn't done 83 00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:55,960 Speaker 1: anything like that. Yeah, you came to Disney to our booth. Okay, 84 00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:59,279 Speaker 1: so you do remember, yeah? And then I just remember 85 00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:05,039 Speaker 1: though they used the pilot episode as a regular episode 86 00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:08,400 Speaker 1: later down the line. Right, yes, how did that all work? Well, 87 00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:13,320 Speaker 1: we did the pilot and then, but we had also 88 00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:16,919 Speaker 1: concurrently started the show. So by the time the pilot 89 00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:21,080 Speaker 1: came back, like we were reworking everything because like the 90 00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:24,360 Speaker 1: show evolves, and so I think when you do a pilot, 91 00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:27,920 Speaker 1: especially of an animated especially of an animated show, nine 92 00:05:27,920 --> 00:05:32,239 Speaker 1: months goes by before it comes back. Right, So everything 93 00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:36,039 Speaker 1: we had recorded twenty shows in that time, because we 94 00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:37,880 Speaker 1: had gone to series and they went out. They were 95 00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:40,160 Speaker 1: like boom boom, boom, boom boom, all the records happen, 96 00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:42,200 Speaker 1: and then you get this one back that's kind of 97 00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:46,560 Speaker 1: like off by itself. Well, and Disney was chopping it 98 00:05:46,640 --> 00:05:48,760 Speaker 1: up to use it to promo. So like this one 99 00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:50,800 Speaker 1: piece of dialogue I remember was not only from the 100 00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:55,440 Speaker 1: audition obviously, remember like trying to really get the job 101 00:05:55,520 --> 00:05:57,440 Speaker 1: with this whole little c net that me and Will's 102 00:05:57,520 --> 00:05:59,640 Speaker 1: character was doing. It was like, don't freak out, Kim, 103 00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:02,800 Speaker 1: And I was like, I'm not like that whole thing, Okay, 104 00:06:03,839 --> 00:06:05,880 Speaker 1: I do. I vaguely remember it was like the c 105 00:06:06,040 --> 00:06:07,560 Speaker 1: net that they kind of chopped up and then they 106 00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:10,200 Speaker 1: teased it to people. And I don't even know if 107 00:06:10,200 --> 00:06:13,039 Speaker 1: they had that song yet from Christina Milion. I don't 108 00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:14,840 Speaker 1: think that. I think do you were you a part 109 00:06:14,839 --> 00:06:17,240 Speaker 1: of any of the musical stuff. I was a part 110 00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:22,320 Speaker 1: with the musicals with you guys, but not for Christina. 111 00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:24,920 Speaker 1: And what List is talking about is the naked male rap. 112 00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:28,440 Speaker 1: Well not just nake, but say the word. And John 113 00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:33,080 Speaker 1: DiMaggio is draging. Yes, we did the Christmas songs and 114 00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:35,360 Speaker 1: stuff like that. I remember John calling me after one 115 00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:37,760 Speaker 1: Christmas song and going, I can't believe you hit the harmony. 116 00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:40,080 Speaker 1: He literally said to because I can't believe he hit 117 00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:41,760 Speaker 1: the harmony because he knows I can't sing, so he's like, 118 00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:43,599 Speaker 1: I can't believe he hit the harmony. He was like, hey, thanks, 119 00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:46,640 Speaker 1: He's like he couldn't. The naked that was rapping and 120 00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:49,000 Speaker 1: singing or a little different though. That was my second 121 00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:53,359 Speaker 1: rap song and apparently award winning trap I did not 122 00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:58,240 Speaker 1: know about. Bob and Mark are the creators of Kimpossible. 123 00:06:58,640 --> 00:07:01,760 Speaker 1: Bob Schooling and Mark Mark mccorle. They accepted an award 124 00:07:01,839 --> 00:07:03,960 Speaker 1: for the Naked mole rap. I guess they didn't even go. 125 00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:07,440 Speaker 1: They didn't. I think they found out about it after 126 00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:10,400 Speaker 1: it happened. I have a question for you with regards 127 00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:13,360 Speaker 1: the casting process, because one of the things that we 128 00:07:13,360 --> 00:07:16,120 Speaker 1: are talking about here on I hear voices. We're trying 129 00:07:16,120 --> 00:07:20,720 Speaker 1: to teach everybody kind of the entire process around making 130 00:07:20,760 --> 00:07:22,960 Speaker 1: an animated series or any sort of divorce or or 131 00:07:23,040 --> 00:07:25,120 Speaker 1: even if it's doing a commercial or doing a movie, 132 00:07:25,120 --> 00:07:27,440 Speaker 1: whatever it is, and so we are making sure we're 133 00:07:27,440 --> 00:07:29,320 Speaker 1: trying to hit everybody. So that's why we have Lisa on. 134 00:07:29,400 --> 00:07:31,040 Speaker 1: We're going to try to do as many directors as 135 00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:33,320 Speaker 1: we can as well, and Lisa's of course a director extraordinaire. 136 00:07:33,760 --> 00:07:39,080 Speaker 1: But song a bit, you've been sung a bit. You 137 00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:42,040 Speaker 1: got an Emmy behind you, so you're you're've been sung 138 00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:43,760 Speaker 1: a little bit. And we've had some Emmy's on this 139 00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:46,040 Speaker 1: show now. Um, and apparently you got nominated for one, 140 00:07:46,040 --> 00:07:48,560 Speaker 1: which I had did know until a minute ago. I 141 00:07:48,600 --> 00:07:51,080 Speaker 1: had no idea. Apparently I'm the only one on Kimpossible 142 00:07:51,080 --> 00:07:52,760 Speaker 1: that was not nominated for an Emmy, which I just 143 00:07:52,760 --> 00:07:55,320 Speaker 1: found that Nancy was nominated. That's what I'm saying. She won. 144 00:07:55,520 --> 00:07:58,800 Speaker 1: I think I thought she want I don't think. Okay, Well, 145 00:07:58,840 --> 00:08:00,640 Speaker 1: either way, she won for barts In which is a 146 00:08:00,680 --> 00:08:04,239 Speaker 1: smaller cartoon character some people might have heard of. Um. 147 00:08:04,280 --> 00:08:06,480 Speaker 1: But one of the things that's very different a lot 148 00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:08,680 Speaker 1: of the times in the animated world than it is 149 00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:11,640 Speaker 1: in the you know, on camera world, is in a 150 00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:14,760 Speaker 1: lot of these cases, the director also is in charge 151 00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:18,000 Speaker 1: of casting or is really helpful when it comes to 152 00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:20,960 Speaker 1: the casting process. Yes and no. Okay, now what do 153 00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:25,120 Speaker 1: you mean by certainly? Well, in the in the beginning 154 00:08:25,200 --> 00:08:29,600 Speaker 1: days like earlier, Uh, because I was wearing a lot 155 00:08:29,640 --> 00:08:32,800 Speaker 1: of hats, I was casting and directing, and there's shows 156 00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:35,320 Speaker 1: I cast from the beginning to the end. But it 157 00:08:35,360 --> 00:08:38,439 Speaker 1: depends on the studio. Like Nickelodeon has their own casting department, 158 00:08:38,480 --> 00:08:41,520 Speaker 1: Disney has their own casting department, Warner Brothers has their 159 00:08:41,559 --> 00:08:45,800 Speaker 1: own casting department, so they do. Did you get any say, 160 00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:49,319 Speaker 1: like especially as the show is getting bigger, Yeah, of course, 161 00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:52,200 Speaker 1: you know, Hey, I want to bring this person in. Yes, absolutely, 162 00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:54,920 Speaker 1: But it used to be we would do that all 163 00:08:55,000 --> 00:08:59,240 Speaker 1: day long, and now they have, you know, which is 164 00:08:59,280 --> 00:09:02,640 Speaker 1: great for directors because you have a whole group of 165 00:09:02,679 --> 00:09:07,119 Speaker 1: people who only cast, so they're they're you know, dedicated 166 00:09:07,160 --> 00:09:09,360 Speaker 1: to your show, and they're dedicated to bringing you the 167 00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:11,640 Speaker 1: people and you can talk to them.

Debbie Reynolds was the same 291 00:16:31,920 --> 00:16:34,320 Speaker 1: way when she was doing Nana Possible.

I kind of do do And we 294 00:16:40,320 --> 00:16:46,160 Speaker 1: were just like beside ourselves. That was DeBie Reynolds, not 295 00:16:46,160 --> 00:16:48,520 Speaker 1: you're in too, Carrie Fisher. Well, I think it was 296 00:16:49,080 --> 00:16:53,440 Speaker 1: like we got it came. I know it was. We 297 00:16:53,480 --> 00:16:56,200 Speaker 1: thought that was solid gold, and it just never happened, 298 00:16:57,240 --> 00:16:59,960 Speaker 1: and I don't know where it fell apart. Now I 299 00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:01,720 Speaker 1: have to ask you, this might be there might be 300 00:17:01,760 --> 00:17:03,440 Speaker 1: no good answer behind this. So if there isn't just 301 00:17:03,480 --> 00:17:08,240 Speaker 1: making is there a reason we never recorded with Nancy Well, 302 00:17:08,280 --> 00:17:14,200 Speaker 1: I think a lot depends on schedules, so everybody's schedule dictated. 303 00:17:14,560 --> 00:17:19,280 Speaker 1: She's very tried, very nicely. Now she didn't want to time. 304 00:17:19,400 --> 00:17:21,960 Speaker 1: Disney wasn't doing big on some We only did it 305 00:17:22,040 --> 00:17:26,359 Speaker 1: because you asked specific Oh is you it? I mean, 306 00:17:27,119 --> 00:17:29,520 Speaker 1: I hope I'm not speaking out of but you made 307 00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:33,359 Speaker 1: a request at one of the season breaks. I mean 308 00:17:33,480 --> 00:17:35,040 Speaker 1: when the story was I wasn't gonna come back for 309 00:17:35,080 --> 00:17:37,520 Speaker 1: season two. Oh my gosh. We we thought it was 310 00:17:37,560 --> 00:17:40,560 Speaker 1: too It is too because we renegotiated our feet. Okay, 311 00:17:40,720 --> 00:17:42,800 Speaker 1: See it wasn't had nothing, had really nothing to do 312 00:17:42,840 --> 00:17:44,920 Speaker 1: with that for me, like, I can't actually want this, 313 00:17:44,920 --> 00:17:50,560 Speaker 1: This is such impossible. It had absolutely nothing whatsoever to 314 00:17:50,600 --> 00:17:52,280 Speaker 1: do with the money for me. Swear to god, I 315 00:17:52,320 --> 00:17:54,199 Speaker 1: really didn't care about the money at all. It was 316 00:17:54,240 --> 00:17:57,479 Speaker 1: that I did. I was recording by myself and I 317 00:17:57,520 --> 00:17:59,639 Speaker 1: was just coming off a Batman where we there'd be 318 00:17:59,640 --> 00:18:01,800 Speaker 1: twenty people in the room and there's all this energy, 319 00:18:01,960 --> 00:18:03,640 Speaker 1: and then I was walking into this room by myself, 320 00:18:03,680 --> 00:18:05,239 Speaker 1: and I just didn't like it. So I didn't make 321 00:18:05,240 --> 00:18:06,800 Speaker 1: a stink. I didn't say anything. All I said was 322 00:18:06,960 --> 00:18:08,320 Speaker 1: I think it would be better if you just got 323 00:18:08,359 --> 00:18:10,080 Speaker 1: someone else. I said, I just I don't think it's 324 00:18:10,080 --> 00:18:12,639 Speaker 1: for me. And then they called me and said, no, 325 00:18:12,720 --> 00:18:14,320 Speaker 1: we really want you back. I said, look, guys, it's 326 00:18:14,359 --> 00:18:16,040 Speaker 1: I'm not trying to I'm not. It's not well, we'll 327 00:18:16,080 --> 00:18:17,880 Speaker 1: talk about money. I'm like, I swear it's not about 328 00:18:17,920 --> 00:18:23,520 Speaker 1: the money at all, because you're very rich. But it 329 00:18:23,560 --> 00:18:26,280 Speaker 1: wasn't about that. I wanted to record with other actors. 330 00:18:26,520 --> 00:18:31,520 Speaker 1: That's amazing that I was at the time. That was 331 00:18:31,560 --> 00:18:34,679 Speaker 1: a very stylistic difference between Warner Brothers because I was 332 00:18:34,720 --> 00:18:38,119 Speaker 1: doing show directing, show and showdown over there and we 333 00:18:38,200 --> 00:18:41,800 Speaker 1: had fourteen people lined up, seven on one side, seven 334 00:18:41,840 --> 00:18:43,680 Speaker 1: on the other, and it's all raised in the middle 335 00:18:43,760 --> 00:18:47,600 Speaker 1: and me screaming bloody murder at everybody. It was phenomenal. 336 00:18:48,280 --> 00:18:50,680 Speaker 1: I was also doing you know, when we did Penguins, 337 00:18:50,720 --> 00:18:53,600 Speaker 1: we did ten people in the room loudhouse, when before 338 00:18:53,680 --> 00:18:59,520 Speaker 1: COVID we're doing twelve people in a room guards in 339 00:18:59,560 --> 00:19:03,560 Speaker 1: a straight lineup, guys all look like criminals. But literally 340 00:19:03,600 --> 00:19:08,679 Speaker 1: was a straight row secret Saturday something that I cast 341 00:19:08,920 --> 00:19:12,000 Speaker 1: beginning to end top to They let me do that. 342 00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:19,400 Speaker 1: That cast was secret was right after k Impossible. Yeah, 343 00:19:19,560 --> 00:19:23,560 Speaker 1: and it was actually a pretty great I was my goodness. 344 00:19:23,960 --> 00:19:26,600 Speaker 1: He played a dark soul I did. It was cool, 345 00:19:26,640 --> 00:19:30,840 Speaker 1: which was so different deep in his voice. Yeah, it 346 00:19:30,880 --> 00:19:33,200 Speaker 1: was even deeper than Batman. That's the deepest. Doyle was 347 00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:35,480 Speaker 1: the deepest character doing a character voice. I've never heard 348 00:19:35,480 --> 00:19:38,080 Speaker 1: of it. Ye, Doyle was just he was just down here, 349 00:19:38,119 --> 00:19:39,960 Speaker 1: like get out of your kid, and he was he 350 00:19:40,040 --> 00:19:42,879 Speaker 1: was an unhappy soul he was a mercenary. Yeah, and 351 00:19:42,920 --> 00:19:45,360 Speaker 1: so it was this complete departure, but it was so 352 00:19:45,600 --> 00:19:48,359 Speaker 1: it was so great, you know, to do that that turn, 353 00:19:48,680 --> 00:19:53,159 Speaker 1: because you know, I love working with actors, but also 354 00:19:53,560 --> 00:19:57,080 Speaker 1: like love switching it up like in that that show 355 00:19:57,280 --> 00:20:01,360 Speaker 1: Dietrich Babe played a character that never spoke like he 356 00:20:01,560 --> 00:20:06,200 Speaker 1: made he was an alien, and the way he did 357 00:20:06,240 --> 00:20:08,560 Speaker 1: it at all like that. No, he did it well, 358 00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:11,920 Speaker 1: did not sound like that, but it had so much 359 00:20:12,080 --> 00:20:17,520 Speaker 1: humanity and he never uttered a single actual word. He 360 00:20:17,560 --> 00:20:20,520 Speaker 1: could make a sound and we would almost be in 361 00:20:20,560 --> 00:20:24,040 Speaker 1: tears like it was. It was. He played this heart 362 00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:28,360 Speaker 1: like it was. And I directed him, I would fists. 363 00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:32,119 Speaker 1: I would direct him as if I was just like 364 00:20:32,160 --> 00:20:34,560 Speaker 1: a regularly. I wasn't telling him to make sounds. I'm like, 365 00:20:34,800 --> 00:20:37,800 Speaker 1: here's your emotion, here's what the scene is. And he 366 00:20:37,920 --> 00:20:43,120 Speaker 1: would like and then he'd like have his mind. They'd 367 00:20:43,160 --> 00:20:45,439 Speaker 1: leave his mic up because he just ad lib in 368 00:20:45,480 --> 00:20:48,000 Speaker 1: the middle of it all. And it was because it 369 00:20:48,080 --> 00:20:50,919 Speaker 1: weren't word didn't matter. It was genius. It really was 370 00:20:51,480 --> 00:20:54,200 Speaker 1: Corey Burton. That's the first time I'd worked with Corey Burton, 371 00:20:54,359 --> 00:20:56,359 Speaker 1: who is a legend. This is remember when you and 372 00:20:56,359 --> 00:20:58,760 Speaker 1: I were talking about originally doing this show. I told 373 00:20:58,760 --> 00:21:00,359 Speaker 1: you one of the reasons that I wanted to do 374 00:21:00,400 --> 00:21:04,359 Speaker 1: it was because, Yeah, this podcast is because of a 375 00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:06,840 Speaker 1: conversation I had with an actor named coryburn He was 376 00:21:06,880 --> 00:21:09,600 Speaker 1: at my house. He didn't doesn't like to come to 377 00:21:09,680 --> 00:21:12,320 Speaker 1: rap parties, but we had just finished ThunderCats and he came. 378 00:21:12,400 --> 00:21:15,280 Speaker 1: He came, and he was there late. Everybody had left 379 00:21:15,320 --> 00:21:17,720 Speaker 1: and it was just myself, Matt Mercer, and Corey Burton 380 00:21:17,800 --> 00:21:19,800 Speaker 1: left and I said, I was like, this is too 381 00:21:19,840 --> 00:21:22,879 Speaker 1: good an opportunity. And I said, Corey, I'm just curious, 382 00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:25,200 Speaker 1: where do you come up with your characters? And he said, 383 00:21:25,640 --> 00:21:28,800 Speaker 1: I have a shelf built in my mind and on 384 00:21:28,840 --> 00:21:31,640 Speaker 1: that shelf they're all the characters I need. And when 385 00:21:31,640 --> 00:21:33,119 Speaker 1: I need to, I reach into my mind. And I 386 00:21:33,560 --> 00:21:35,159 Speaker 1: remember I was telling you the story and I was like, 387 00:21:35,520 --> 00:21:37,800 Speaker 1: we need to talk to more voiceover actors to find 388 00:21:37,840 --> 00:21:40,439 Speaker 1: out where they're getting it because that story. And I 389 00:21:40,480 --> 00:21:44,240 Speaker 1: was like, it's nuts. Yeah, We've had such an amazing 390 00:21:44,280 --> 00:21:47,240 Speaker 1: time unlocking all of these journeys that people have taken 391 00:21:47,280 --> 00:21:50,240 Speaker 1: to find themselves an animation, whether it's through singing or 392 00:21:50,400 --> 00:21:54,199 Speaker 1: through like Kevin Conroy, so Kevin Conroy. We had a 393 00:21:54,200 --> 00:21:57,040 Speaker 1: great chat with him. I'm hoping that's not going to 394 00:21:57,080 --> 00:21:59,359 Speaker 1: spoil anything, but I don't think it will. So here's 395 00:21:59,359 --> 00:22:02,480 Speaker 1: the fature this after Kevin, there you go. You own 396 00:22:02,520 --> 00:22:05,680 Speaker 1: the channel. Um. So with Kevin though, and this will 397 00:22:05,800 --> 00:22:08,000 Speaker 1: kind of swing back to the directing thing. Kevin was 398 00:22:08,040 --> 00:22:11,639 Speaker 1: approaching things in a much more like realistic, grounded approach, 399 00:22:11,680 --> 00:22:14,000 Speaker 1: which is what made Batman so special. And what I 400 00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:16,959 Speaker 1: think what he said was it changed like the that 401 00:22:17,200 --> 00:22:19,199 Speaker 1: entire show, the whole, and I can see why you 402 00:22:19,800 --> 00:22:23,000 Speaker 1: repressed to say, look, guys, this isn't my journey in 403 00:22:23,040 --> 00:22:26,000 Speaker 1: this way because I'm inspired by Kevin and like, you know, 404 00:22:26,040 --> 00:22:28,640 Speaker 1: you're being mentored in that regard. So it's like this 405 00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:30,560 Speaker 1: is not the experience I would want. And so that 406 00:22:30,640 --> 00:22:32,119 Speaker 1: was really worth it. You know what I'm saying that 407 00:22:32,160 --> 00:22:33,920 Speaker 1: was it was well, I mean again, it was also 408 00:22:34,359 --> 00:22:38,239 Speaker 1: you know, like sitting this is such a selfish thing 409 00:22:38,240 --> 00:22:40,920 Speaker 1: to say, but actors are inherently selfish. Um, sitting here 410 00:22:40,960 --> 00:22:42,920 Speaker 1: with Lisa telling us all these amazing I want to 411 00:22:42,960 --> 00:22:44,720 Speaker 1: go back to kimpossible and I want to record with 412 00:22:44,760 --> 00:22:49,040 Speaker 1: all these people I did too. I want to do 413 00:22:49,080 --> 00:22:53,640 Speaker 1: a huge ensemble reboot, and but just she's like, don't 414 00:22:53,640 --> 00:22:57,440 Speaker 1: get excited, get excited, get excited, but it will all 415 00:22:57,560 --> 00:23:01,000 Speaker 1: be always based on people's schedules, sure, you know. And 416 00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:04,720 Speaker 1: so there were times we were, you know, scrambling to 417 00:23:04,760 --> 00:23:07,639 Speaker 1: show up when Ricardo Montabon felt up to it, like 418 00:23:07,720 --> 00:23:10,760 Speaker 1: we would make that happen point he was in and 419 00:23:10,760 --> 00:23:14,159 Speaker 1: he was in ill health and it was and killed 420 00:23:14,200 --> 00:23:16,960 Speaker 1: it and like he you were like, oh man, how 421 00:23:17,000 --> 00:23:18,880 Speaker 1: is he going to get And then he the microphone 422 00:23:18,920 --> 00:23:20,840 Speaker 1: would drop in front of his face and he would 423 00:23:20,880 --> 00:23:23,680 Speaker 1: light up. And we've known a bunch of people that 424 00:23:23,760 --> 00:23:28,400 Speaker 1: do like um Fred Willard. Fred Willard, I have known him, 425 00:23:28,760 --> 00:23:31,880 Speaker 1: worked with him for fifteen years and and I would 426 00:23:31,880 --> 00:23:33,680 Speaker 1: see him in the lobby and he'd just be kind 427 00:23:33,680 --> 00:23:36,480 Speaker 1: of quiet and and he gets in front of that 428 00:23:36,560 --> 00:23:40,640 Speaker 1: microphone and his whole being just lights up and it's 429 00:23:40,680 --> 00:23:43,280 Speaker 1: a joy. It's a joy. It's a performer. And he 430 00:23:43,520 --> 00:23:46,560 Speaker 1: but you see the inherent joy in his body, like 431 00:23:46,640 --> 00:23:49,720 Speaker 1: everything comes alive. And and I think that's what makes 432 00:23:49,720 --> 00:23:52,919 Speaker 1: what we do so special. It's not whether or not 433 00:23:52,960 --> 00:23:55,520 Speaker 1: a camera's on you, but it's when you get to perform. 434 00:23:56,200 --> 00:23:59,200 Speaker 1: And everybody would love to do anythink ensembles are one 435 00:23:59,200 --> 00:24:01,760 Speaker 1: of the best things in the world to do. There 436 00:24:01,800 --> 00:24:05,639 Speaker 1: are some people who don't have this, Like who's a 437 00:24:05,640 --> 00:24:08,880 Speaker 1: guy who was in the Penguins cast. I won't name 438 00:24:08,960 --> 00:24:11,960 Speaker 1: him because he's a crack up, and but he was 439 00:24:12,080 --> 00:24:15,320 Speaker 1: very busy and we the Penguins cast to do one 440 00:24:15,440 --> 00:24:22,119 Speaker 1: eleven minute show took four hours. We were ridiculous. It 441 00:24:22,240 --> 00:24:27,840 Speaker 1: was I was a lunicorn. You brought me on. It 442 00:24:27,920 --> 00:24:31,040 Speaker 1: was amazing, But I staid out a song. I was like, 443 00:24:31,119 --> 00:24:34,000 Speaker 1: I can't even with these guys. People, And that's the thing, 444 00:24:34,080 --> 00:24:38,919 Speaker 1: is you there to become a lion tamer, because I 445 00:24:39,000 --> 00:24:40,840 Speaker 1: just end up yelling shut up at the top of 446 00:24:40,880 --> 00:24:44,320 Speaker 1: my life at some point. There is so in those 447 00:24:44,600 --> 00:24:51,399 Speaker 1: ensembles it gets tough to imagine a Jean Smart or 448 00:24:51,280 --> 00:24:55,879 Speaker 1: or sit around. And so one of the guys walked 449 00:24:55,880 --> 00:24:58,119 Speaker 1: in and we were going to take him by himself 450 00:24:58,119 --> 00:25:00,480 Speaker 1: when this thing had wrapped and he's like, oh, maybe, 451 00:25:00,480 --> 00:25:04,360 Speaker 1: I was like nope and walked out like they just 452 00:25:04,400 --> 00:25:06,840 Speaker 1: look like like it's a parrot store and they're all 453 00:25:06,920 --> 00:25:10,320 Speaker 1: on purchase and they were and they're magnificent. Let me 454 00:25:10,359 --> 00:25:13,200 Speaker 1: tell you those it was in that room. It was 455 00:25:13,359 --> 00:25:21,360 Speaker 1: it was magical. John Maggio, Danny Jacobs, Kevin Michael Richardson, 456 00:25:22,200 --> 00:25:26,119 Speaker 1: James Patrick Stewart, yes, because they call him Patrick, but 457 00:25:26,240 --> 00:25:30,080 Speaker 1: it's James Patrick Stewart, because you're somebody else Patrick Stewart, right, 458 00:25:30,119 --> 00:25:35,120 Speaker 1: Patrick Patrick Steward. And Dietrich was a rotating character in that, 459 00:25:35,280 --> 00:25:40,399 Speaker 1: and those sessions were they don't mean talk about the 460 00:25:40,440 --> 00:25:42,440 Speaker 1: funniest things in the world, but there comes a point 461 00:25:42,440 --> 00:25:46,119 Speaker 1: where you walk out and you're just you were like, 462 00:25:46,280 --> 00:25:49,280 Speaker 1: you had to go and take a nap or have 463 00:25:49,359 --> 00:25:51,359 Speaker 1: a glass of wine. But if you were an actor 464 00:25:51,400 --> 00:25:53,840 Speaker 1: who had five lines in that and Nicole and we 465 00:25:53,880 --> 00:25:56,480 Speaker 1: had to call in the middle of that, Nicole was 466 00:25:56,640 --> 00:26:01,440 Speaker 1: game until she wasn't kidd and then she's like, oh, yeah, 467 00:26:01,680 --> 00:26:03,560 Speaker 1: you know how you see those old stories of Robin 468 00:26:03,600 --> 00:26:05,159 Speaker 1: Williams or Robert you know, you'd see him on the 469 00:26:05,160 --> 00:26:07,320 Speaker 1: old comedy you know, comedy shows, or you see him 470 00:26:07,760 --> 00:26:10,439 Speaker 1: doing that kind of comic relief thing where he's just 471 00:26:10,520 --> 00:26:14,439 Speaker 1: taking over. It was four of four Robin Williams against 472 00:26:14,480 --> 00:26:20,080 Speaker 1: each other in a room, yes, you know, and it 473 00:26:20,200 --> 00:26:24,760 Speaker 1: just became this collaborative what I found interesting furious, So 474 00:26:24,800 --> 00:26:27,320 Speaker 1: what I found interesting about Lisa's directing style is that 475 00:26:27,359 --> 00:26:29,280 Speaker 1: she like allowed and I don't know if this is 476 00:26:29,320 --> 00:26:33,920 Speaker 1: industry standard, but you would allow for you know, improv 477 00:26:34,359 --> 00:26:37,639 Speaker 1: and breathing room and creativity. You know. We talked to 478 00:26:37,680 --> 00:26:39,399 Speaker 1: some like anime people and they're like, yeah, I just 479 00:26:39,480 --> 00:26:41,520 Speaker 1: kind of like match the lip flaps and like that's 480 00:26:41,560 --> 00:26:43,399 Speaker 1: part of it. But I'm trying to americanize it, and 481 00:26:43,400 --> 00:26:45,280 Speaker 1: that's like a struggle for them. But meanwhile, it's like 482 00:26:45,600 --> 00:26:47,760 Speaker 1: with these original characters from the get go, we've been 483 00:26:47,800 --> 00:26:52,200 Speaker 1: able to like infuse so much of ourselves. And for me, 484 00:26:52,400 --> 00:26:54,080 Speaker 1: at the time of getting hired, I was so young 485 00:26:54,240 --> 00:26:57,080 Speaker 1: that I felt like that was helpful to keep her 486 00:26:57,080 --> 00:27:00,119 Speaker 1: youthful and whatnot, and also somewhat challenging as I was 487 00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:03,520 Speaker 1: growing older going through other things.

So so my friends would call all 594 00:33:31,880 --> 00:33:33,360 Speaker 1: day long because they knew I would get in trouble 595 00:33:33,360 --> 00:33:35,440 Speaker 1: if I didn't answer the phone like that, and they 596 00:33:35,440 --> 00:33:38,840 Speaker 1: were relentless, and so I would answer the phone, start 597 00:33:38,920 --> 00:33:41,400 Speaker 1: the Big and Better, and I'd be in tears because 598 00:33:41,400 --> 00:33:44,920 Speaker 1: this guy was maniacal, and there was so much terrible 599 00:33:45,000 --> 00:33:48,400 Speaker 1: nous about the two of you in this well and 600 00:33:48,600 --> 00:33:54,840 Speaker 1: some this is a family friendly show. It was dramatic, 601 00:33:54,920 --> 00:33:57,480 Speaker 1: I'll say, I'll say it that way. So I kept 602 00:33:57,480 --> 00:33:59,440 Speaker 1: sending out my resume because I knew I couldn't do 603 00:33:59,480 --> 00:34:02,480 Speaker 1: this long term. So I sent my resume to Deak 604 00:34:02,600 --> 00:34:04,720 Speaker 1: for some merchandise job. I'm like, I don't care. I 605 00:34:04,760 --> 00:34:07,880 Speaker 1: just got and so they brought me in and the 606 00:34:08,000 --> 00:34:10,120 Speaker 1: and they're like, well, we probably be better in production. 607 00:34:10,320 --> 00:34:14,279 Speaker 1: We'll put you in production. And Marcia's Marcia Goodman, the 608 00:34:14,320 --> 00:34:16,640 Speaker 1: head of casting, saw my resume and it is like, well, 609 00:34:16,840 --> 00:34:19,680 Speaker 1: be my secretary. So I started out as her secretary 610 00:34:19,920 --> 00:34:22,359 Speaker 1: and left there a director, like she really took me 611 00:34:23,719 --> 00:34:28,240 Speaker 1: over how many years? Seven? Nothing like a good mentor honestly, 612 00:34:28,360 --> 00:34:31,520 Speaker 1: yeah really And and so you asked, like hours ago 613 00:34:31,800 --> 00:34:34,480 Speaker 1: where I got my So I learned. But you you 614 00:34:34,680 --> 00:34:36,919 Speaker 1: as a director and as a as an actor, you guys, 615 00:34:37,000 --> 00:34:39,480 Speaker 1: you develop your own styles, right, So you have to 616 00:34:39,520 --> 00:34:42,320 Speaker 1: find what you're comfortable with. What she would do wasn't 617 00:34:42,360 --> 00:34:44,719 Speaker 1: necessarily I was never going to pull that off. She 618 00:34:44,880 --> 00:34:47,799 Speaker 1: was a very confident. You know. Well, it also it 619 00:34:47,840 --> 00:34:53,360 Speaker 1: seems like you were really kind of traumatized by that person. Directing. 620 00:34:53,440 --> 00:34:56,800 Speaker 1: You poorly at having to do the same thing over 621 00:34:56,880 --> 00:34:59,319 Speaker 1: and over and over again in a certain, very particular way. 622 00:34:59,320 --> 00:35:01,839 Speaker 1: I mean, that was that was not good. So it 623 00:35:01,920 --> 00:35:04,000 Speaker 1: was not Maybe subconsciously you were like, I'm going to 624 00:35:04,120 --> 00:35:06,880 Speaker 1: fix this problem. Maybe maybe that's a really good point. 625 00:35:06,960 --> 00:35:09,399 Speaker 1: That's that's a really good point. So when I learned 626 00:35:09,440 --> 00:35:12,319 Speaker 1: that voice directing was a job, first of all the 627 00:35:12,320 --> 00:35:16,480 Speaker 1: heavens opened. And I'm because it's you get to work 628 00:35:16,520 --> 00:35:20,040 Speaker 1: with writers who I love and if I would get 629 00:35:20,080 --> 00:35:22,120 Speaker 1: out of my own way would do. And you get 630 00:35:22,160 --> 00:35:24,759 Speaker 1: to work with actors and who are funny, who I love, 631 00:35:24,800 --> 00:35:28,839 Speaker 1: and everybody is so like things like us, you know, 632 00:35:28,960 --> 00:35:35,719 Speaker 1: like you're quick thinking, and uh, it literally suited me. 633 00:35:35,800 --> 00:35:38,160 Speaker 1: And it was like that moment you go, oh, that's 634 00:35:38,160 --> 00:35:41,719 Speaker 1: this is exactly ever I found it. I found it. 635 00:35:41,960 --> 00:35:44,840 Speaker 1: I found it, and it wasn't easy, and it was 636 00:35:45,080 --> 00:35:47,520 Speaker 1: I was older than most people who came into it, 637 00:35:47,600 --> 00:35:49,799 Speaker 1: and but you know, I love it.

Okay, 700 00:39:09,719 --> 00:39:13,759 Speaker 1: I've heard John Cena, and I heard there's like one 701 00:39:13,840 --> 00:39:16,000 Speaker 1: or two more big people that have come out in 702 00:39:16,040 --> 00:39:18,400 Speaker 1: their social media post and said I auditioned for ron 703 00:39:18,480 --> 00:39:21,920 Speaker 1: Stoppable Kim. I really only knew about Alison Hannigan and 704 00:39:21,960 --> 00:39:25,000 Speaker 1: then they kind of they kind of honored that with 705 00:39:25,040 --> 00:39:28,920 Speaker 1: her becoming the mom and the live action. But yeah, 706 00:39:29,400 --> 00:39:32,200 Speaker 1: can you can you can you tell us?

You know that 710 00:39:43,160 --> 00:39:46,440 Speaker 1: that list? I don't remember that list. I don't remember 711 00:39:46,520 --> 00:39:51,920 Speaker 1: John Cena recording an audition. They did a record, I 712 00:39:51,960 --> 00:40:01,360 Speaker 1: will say this, and you guys were replaced? Really and why, oh, 713 00:40:01,520 --> 00:40:07,799 Speaker 1: I don't know that you're gonna happen. I'm not sure. 714 00:40:08,320 --> 00:40:11,400 Speaker 1: What does it matter. They're not going to reboot it anyway. 715 00:40:11,640 --> 00:40:14,480 Speaker 1: Don't say that we're gonna We're gonna put a flag 716 00:40:14,520 --> 00:40:16,359 Speaker 1: on that. We're gonna see if if there's a chance 717 00:40:16,480 --> 00:40:18,359 Speaker 1: we might not be able to say that. But but 718 00:40:19,920 --> 00:40:22,359 Speaker 1: they recorded an episode was there with the two of them? 719 00:40:23,200 --> 00:40:26,000 Speaker 1: I didn't direct. Chris Bailey directed it. Chris Chris by 720 00:40:26,040 --> 00:40:30,000 Speaker 1: the way, great guy, love Chris Love. Chris was a sweetie. 721 00:40:30,280 --> 00:40:33,399 Speaker 1: Directors get too busy once they get in the heat 722 00:40:33,400 --> 00:40:35,440 Speaker 1: of animation, so he was doing like Alvin and the 723 00:40:35,520 --> 00:40:38,880 Speaker 1: Chipmunks like all these like mega franchise like movies. I 724 00:40:38,920 --> 00:40:41,520 Speaker 1: don't know why he left, but I'm super happy that 725 00:40:41,760 --> 00:40:44,799 Speaker 1: he got too busy doing the series he directed. He 726 00:40:44,840 --> 00:40:47,520 Speaker 1: was the animation director on the series. Like that's what 727 00:40:47,680 --> 00:40:49,759 Speaker 1: he was doing, right, He was more in the animation, 728 00:40:51,440 --> 00:40:54,400 Speaker 1: so he was directing. I think I remember him like 729 00:40:54,440 --> 00:40:57,920 Speaker 1: sketching me, yeah, cell or like something, and then he 730 00:40:57,960 --> 00:40:59,759 Speaker 1: had Bob and Mark signet, and then I think that's 731 00:40:59,800 --> 00:41:01,359 Speaker 1: what I have at my house. I have a cell. 732 00:41:01,480 --> 00:41:02,920 Speaker 1: So I guess the other question I would ask is 733 00:41:03,000 --> 00:41:07,560 Speaker 1: when are we doing more episodes from your lips? I 734 00:41:07,600 --> 00:41:11,000 Speaker 1: would love, love love that wells Lisa, Bob and Mark 735 00:41:11,080 --> 00:41:14,000 Speaker 1: have Lisa, Bob and Mark have always been extremely supportive 736 00:41:14,719 --> 00:41:17,480 Speaker 1: of you know they have of us just continuing, you 737 00:41:17,480 --> 00:41:19,319 Speaker 1: know what I mean. It's nothing crazy. It's not like 738 00:41:19,360 --> 00:41:22,359 Speaker 1: some crazy reimagining. It's just continuing here. But we've talked 739 00:41:22,360 --> 00:41:25,480 Speaker 1: about this before. To forget forgetting even recording more episodes 740 00:41:25,480 --> 00:41:27,520 Speaker 1: of the show, we've talked about on this show, we'd 741 00:41:27,520 --> 00:41:29,360 Speaker 1: like to do something that's never been done before because 742 00:41:29,400 --> 00:41:31,920 Speaker 1: the entire cast has never once been in the same 743 00:41:32,000 --> 00:41:34,000 Speaker 1: room together. That is true and so that's what it 744 00:41:34,120 --> 00:41:38,520 Speaker 1: is saying that the anniversary year on I hear voices, 745 00:41:38,560 --> 00:41:40,799 Speaker 1: we're gonna make happen. We're going to have the entire cast, 746 00:41:40,920 --> 00:41:43,239 Speaker 1: You're going to be coming, going to schedule it for 747 00:41:43,320 --> 00:41:47,720 Speaker 1: us exactly. We are going to have the entire Passive 748 00:41:47,760 --> 00:41:50,640 Speaker 1: Kimpossible together and Christie is going to be in New 749 00:41:50,719 --> 00:41:54,279 Speaker 1: York skyping exactly. No way, I'm here, You're not gonna 750 00:41:54,320 --> 00:41:56,239 Speaker 1: get You're not gonna shaken me this. So that is 751 00:41:56,480 --> 00:41:58,759 Speaker 1: we're looking forward to that. Now. We do have a 752 00:41:58,840 --> 00:42:00,719 Speaker 1: segment on the show which we are to switch up 753 00:42:00,840 --> 00:42:03,919 Speaker 1: because you're here. So we're gonna be doing something fun 754 00:42:03,920 --> 00:42:06,000 Speaker 1: on the show in future episodes where we're gonna have 755 00:42:06,040 --> 00:42:09,279 Speaker 1: a screen here and kids and whoever from around the 756 00:42:09,320 --> 00:42:12,560 Speaker 1: country the world are going to be able to skype in, 757 00:42:12,760 --> 00:42:15,680 Speaker 1: come in, zoom in, whatever whatever we're doing at the time, 758 00:42:16,120 --> 00:42:18,840 Speaker 1: and talk to their favorite voice over actors and show 759 00:42:19,040 --> 00:42:22,720 Speaker 1: artwork that they've drawn, and their favorite voice over actors 760 00:42:22,719 --> 00:42:25,960 Speaker 1: are going to put a voice to the character that 761 00:42:26,040 --> 00:42:29,360 Speaker 1: they've created. Um, so we've started on every episode. We 762 00:42:29,400 --> 00:42:32,359 Speaker 1: can't do it live yet. So Christie, who's the woman 763 00:42:32,400 --> 00:42:38,120 Speaker 1: sitting here? Yeah, that's Christie that's Lisa. She sent out 764 00:42:38,239 --> 00:42:41,080 Speaker 1: to her her fan base and they sent in pictures. 765 00:42:41,120 --> 00:42:42,640 Speaker 1: Now we've been showing them to the actors, and the 766 00:42:42,680 --> 00:42:44,800 Speaker 1: actors have been doing voices. Now, since you don't do voices, 767 00:42:45,360 --> 00:42:46,920 Speaker 1: I was wondering if we could switch it up and 768 00:42:47,440 --> 00:42:49,759 Speaker 1: Christie and I could do the voices and you could 769 00:42:49,800 --> 00:42:53,480 Speaker 1: direct us. I love Lisa directing me, so I also 770 00:42:53,719 --> 00:42:58,719 Speaker 1: instantly feel like I'm in an audition room. Christie, Lisa, 771 00:42:58,880 --> 00:43:01,480 Speaker 1: We're gonna start with Chris. By the way, you can 772 00:43:01,640 --> 00:43:04,840 Speaker 1: be recast, I know. So wait a minute, hold on 773 00:43:04,920 --> 00:43:07,400 Speaker 1: a second. Can I be recast as impossible? No? I 774 00:43:07,480 --> 00:43:09,600 Speaker 1: mean as whatever character we're doing now. I'm sorry I 775 00:43:09,760 --> 00:43:12,800 Speaker 1: projected that. I projected that of course they can recast this, 776 00:43:12,880 --> 00:43:15,720 Speaker 1: and I'm sure they will. Here you go go ahead. 777 00:43:16,080 --> 00:43:19,960 Speaker 1: Wait all right, so what do we I get to see? Otherwise? 778 00:43:20,040 --> 00:43:22,520 Speaker 1: How do you? Oh? Wait, she should pick? Right? Well, 779 00:43:22,560 --> 00:43:24,279 Speaker 1: I guess, yeah, I guess that'd be the better way. Yeah, 780 00:43:24,640 --> 00:43:27,200 Speaker 1: you pick. That's fine. That was random. That was random. 781 00:43:28,120 --> 00:43:32,200 Speaker 1: Let me see, my goodness on the top the age 782 00:43:32,320 --> 00:43:37,080 Speaker 1: and the name does it does it say nine years old? Yes? 783 00:43:38,400 --> 00:43:40,520 Speaker 1: So Kate is the character.

You got the car? Okay? 786 00:43:50,280 --> 00:43:53,120 Speaker 1: So her powers are love. She has a lover way 787 00:43:53,200 --> 00:43:58,160 Speaker 1: that turns herself into a kitty. Oh my gosh. So 788 00:43:58,480 --> 00:44:04,280 Speaker 1: she uh starts out as Kate and turns into Caddy. Okay, brilliant, 789 00:44:05,280 --> 00:44:10,520 Speaker 1: and then she just know that's a good transformation. What 790 00:44:10,680 --> 00:44:13,960 Speaker 1: agency she would you say? Well, I would say, let's 791 00:44:14,000 --> 00:44:18,839 Speaker 1: say ten. I love it. So she's ten. Okay, she's 792 00:44:18,880 --> 00:44:22,800 Speaker 1: tena you know she's a superhero. So it doesn't Okay, 793 00:44:27,120 --> 00:44:29,759 Speaker 1: our guest don't have any lines. I don't have need 794 00:44:29,840 --> 00:44:32,279 Speaker 1: lines to say that. It is true. You need lines. 795 00:44:32,640 --> 00:44:35,000 Speaker 1: You have to improve it. You give me an you're 796 00:44:35,000 --> 00:44:38,440 Speaker 1: a writer. We're doing this right here. Okay. So she's 797 00:44:38,480 --> 00:44:40,440 Speaker 1: a little ten year old girl. That's about. Maybe it's 798 00:44:40,640 --> 00:44:43,600 Speaker 1: the scene where she's about to turn. How about she's 799 00:44:43,640 --> 00:44:46,080 Speaker 1: watching her friends and they're having an argument, so she 800 00:44:46,160 --> 00:44:49,440 Speaker 1: has to use her love right, got it?

And so I have this thing. 817 00:45:42,000 --> 00:45:44,480 Speaker 1: It's called a love ray, and so basically what I 818 00:45:44,560 --> 00:45:48,399 Speaker 1: do is I will I will use it after um 819 00:45:48,880 --> 00:45:51,520 Speaker 1: I shoot it out. It has these very like happy, 820 00:45:51,600 --> 00:45:55,160 Speaker 1: warm little hearts that shoot out and they touch them 821 00:45:55,280 --> 00:45:57,279 Speaker 1: and they feel happy and they want to hug each 822 00:45:57,280 --> 00:46:00,880 Speaker 1: other again. Um. But the other thing that kind of 823 00:46:00,920 --> 00:46:03,640 Speaker 1: happens is that I need to use the letter box 824 00:46:04,960 --> 00:46:07,880 Speaker 1: because I'm a cat, so I have to go poop 825 00:46:08,239 --> 00:46:12,200 Speaker 1: in the letter box. But maybe instead of I like 826 00:46:12,440 --> 00:46:17,399 Speaker 1: that o, um, so I don't go pe pep peple. 827 00:46:17,880 --> 00:46:23,400 Speaker 1: Lisa said, I don't do that. I go and seen 828 00:46:23,960 --> 00:46:26,799 Speaker 1: and see and see. Thank you, Lisa. I don't think 829 00:46:26,840 --> 00:46:30,440 Speaker 1: I can top that. No, definitely, that was that effectively 830 00:46:30,520 --> 00:46:32,800 Speaker 1: a ten year old girl. Well I think it was 831 00:46:32,880 --> 00:46:36,080 Speaker 1: that ten year old girl. Good news is your half cat, 832 00:46:36,280 --> 00:46:38,720 Speaker 1: so it could be any so kind of yeah, okay, 833 00:46:38,880 --> 00:46:40,839 Speaker 1: but you could be harsh on me. You can tell 834 00:46:40,880 --> 00:46:44,560 Speaker 1: me was that a ten year old thing? Anything you want, 835 00:46:45,239 --> 00:46:48,400 Speaker 1: that's true. It depends on the animation. On the animation, 836 00:46:48,520 --> 00:46:51,920 Speaker 1: depends on the style. Some people want actual kids, like 837 00:46:52,000 --> 00:46:56,520 Speaker 1: I've done to preschool shows where it's real kids, and 838 00:46:56,680 --> 00:46:59,560 Speaker 1: that is what's that like? Doing preschool shows? It's like 839 00:46:59,680 --> 00:47:02,440 Speaker 1: a circus. Okay, the kids are great. The quality of 840 00:47:02,480 --> 00:47:04,880 Speaker 1: the voice of the kids is great. My goodness, they are. 841 00:47:05,200 --> 00:47:07,200 Speaker 1: It's like the old Peanuts stuff. It is like the 842 00:47:07,280 --> 00:47:11,640 Speaker 1: old Peanuts stuff, but the tragedy of it, and there 843 00:47:11,760 --> 00:47:15,680 Speaker 1: is this serious tragedy to it. Little boys age out 844 00:47:15,760 --> 00:47:18,920 Speaker 1: like that. And so that's why so many women miles 845 00:47:19,000 --> 00:47:22,239 Speaker 1: from tomorrowland and then the next five miles and I'm like, 846 00:47:22,320 --> 00:47:26,839 Speaker 1: oh no, but that's why so many women do boy 847 00:47:27,000 --> 00:47:29,640 Speaker 1: voices because the voices don't change. So it's it's a 848 00:47:29,800 --> 00:47:33,440 Speaker 1: it's a real stylistic choice, you know. So for Loudhouse, 849 00:47:33,520 --> 00:47:36,640 Speaker 1: for instance, we have a real Clyde and Lincoln are 850 00:47:36,680 --> 00:47:41,640 Speaker 1: actual kids. All the ten sisters are adults doing doing 851 00:47:42,360 --> 00:47:45,360 Speaker 1: different ages, different ages. But it's also very caricatured and 852 00:47:45,440 --> 00:47:50,160 Speaker 1: not like specifically to sound like children because you put 853 00:47:50,200 --> 00:47:53,680 Speaker 1: them next to real children, they don't. But it's it's 854 00:47:53,719 --> 00:47:57,240 Speaker 1: a stylistic choice and it really works. Unfortunately, Lincoln and Clyde, 855 00:47:57,760 --> 00:48:00,719 Speaker 1: we're on Clyde number four and Can number five, and 856 00:48:01,239 --> 00:48:04,400 Speaker 1: we didn't. We did that with our characters to twelve. 857 00:48:05,080 --> 00:48:08,480 Speaker 1: Until it's like, so I'm really young, maybe they're not. 858 00:48:08,680 --> 00:48:15,560 Speaker 1: Let me ask you this, what's that conversation? Like I 859 00:48:15,640 --> 00:48:18,719 Speaker 1: know Lisa is probably trying to help the situation. We 860 00:48:18,880 --> 00:48:23,719 Speaker 1: do to I try not to just kids. I'm like, 861 00:48:24,200 --> 00:48:29,040 Speaker 1: you're too old, but but it is. It's a delicate conversation. Luckily, 862 00:48:29,200 --> 00:48:32,280 Speaker 1: now that they're casting directors, they do that. But also 863 00:48:34,040 --> 00:48:36,719 Speaker 1: the kids now, like the Lincolns now know that there 864 00:48:36,760 --> 00:48:40,600 Speaker 1: are four Lincolns before them, like it's no, maybe it's 865 00:48:40,600 --> 00:48:45,640 Speaker 1: not because we don't like you. You out it's your voice. 866 00:48:45,880 --> 00:48:48,080 Speaker 1: So you're going to college next year and some of them, 867 00:48:48,400 --> 00:48:50,680 Speaker 1: Like it depends on Like we've had kids at last 868 00:48:52,040 --> 00:48:53,960 Speaker 1: one of our clients last three and a half seasons 869 00:48:54,040 --> 00:48:56,000 Speaker 1: and we just had to let them go and it's 870 00:48:56,080 --> 00:49:00,319 Speaker 1: like like it's hard. It's there. That's better though then 871 00:49:00,400 --> 00:49:02,840 Speaker 1: some babies sitting there, you know, going I was Lincoln 872 00:49:02,920 --> 00:49:06,880 Speaker 1: number two. Yeah, like that something that was the highlight 873 00:49:06,920 --> 00:49:09,919 Speaker 1: of my again, and what we do in Loudhouse, because 874 00:49:09,960 --> 00:49:13,160 Speaker 1: there's such a great group of producers and writers and 875 00:49:13,239 --> 00:49:17,399 Speaker 1: directors is they write these characters. Now Grant Lincoln one 876 00:49:18,200 --> 00:49:20,960 Speaker 1: works at one of the fast food restaurants. Oh I 877 00:49:21,080 --> 00:49:24,080 Speaker 1: love that, and so and he's Grant and he's eighteen 878 00:49:24,760 --> 00:49:28,360 Speaker 1: and so he's back. And we had Khalil Clyde number 879 00:49:28,640 --> 00:49:34,960 Speaker 1: one come back as m and so it's it's it's 880 00:49:35,280 --> 00:49:38,400 Speaker 1: it's nothing personally, you know, like we're not trying. So 881 00:49:38,560 --> 00:49:41,440 Speaker 1: for Miles from Tremorrowland, we went through three miles Boss Baby. 882 00:49:41,600 --> 00:49:44,680 Speaker 1: In the beginning, they made a stylistic choice to keep 883 00:49:44,840 --> 00:49:49,080 Speaker 1: our our Tim and even though Tim started growing up, 884 00:49:49,880 --> 00:49:52,439 Speaker 1: we just started hitching it, you know, and we took 885 00:49:52,480 --> 00:49:55,440 Speaker 1: it as far as we could go. And did you 886 00:49:55,520 --> 00:49:58,560 Speaker 1: use real babies? Yes, that's what I thought, real actual 887 00:49:58,640 --> 00:50:01,839 Speaker 1: infants most of the being to talk to her. Yeah, 888 00:50:01,960 --> 00:50:04,360 Speaker 1: well you have to well and how to switch pages 889 00:50:04,400 --> 00:50:06,759 Speaker 1: without making noise. Man, you look at an eighteen month 890 00:50:06,800 --> 00:50:11,160 Speaker 1: old and go, you've aged out, kid, You're done show business? Yeah, 891 00:50:11,160 --> 00:50:14,800 Speaker 1: you're washed up. Ain't your friends take your rattle and 892 00:50:14,920 --> 00:50:19,239 Speaker 1: walking out for you? Now? Geez, you're ready for wait? 893 00:50:19,360 --> 00:50:22,480 Speaker 1: Let me never want. I almost wanted to see. Honestly, 894 00:50:22,680 --> 00:50:25,920 Speaker 1: I want You've seen every show I've ever worked. I 895 00:50:26,160 --> 00:50:30,600 Speaker 1: was thinking about that the other day, Like, it's pretty close. 896 00:50:30,800 --> 00:50:33,040 Speaker 1: I'm lucky that I picked something that I could really 897 00:50:33,080 --> 00:50:37,560 Speaker 1: go for it. But like I think, I think maybe 898 00:50:37,640 --> 00:50:41,680 Speaker 1: she should cast you like her actual casting. She would 899 00:50:41,719 --> 00:50:43,480 Speaker 1: have she would have picked this one for me. I 900 00:50:43,680 --> 00:50:46,520 Speaker 1: bet guarantee it. You realize you're literally doing the opposite 901 00:50:46,520 --> 00:50:56,680 Speaker 1: of what is random. Whatever you want? Man should pretty princesses. 902 00:50:57,600 --> 00:51:01,000 Speaker 1: You know this is the modern times. Anybody can be 903 00:51:01,040 --> 00:51:04,239 Speaker 1: at another cat, A lot of cats, A lot of cats. 904 00:51:04,680 --> 00:51:08,640 Speaker 1: I got another cat. I tell you I like cats. 905 00:51:09,120 --> 00:51:12,000 Speaker 1: We had two other cats to listen. Angry cat. Let's 906 00:51:12,000 --> 00:51:18,399 Speaker 1: do this guy. He's angry. Easy information, that's okay. Why 907 00:51:18,560 --> 00:51:22,160 Speaker 1: are you why are you starting? Oh no? Why are 908 00:51:22,200 --> 00:51:24,600 Speaker 1: you starving me? Cat? That seems to me he's not 909 00:51:24,760 --> 00:51:27,080 Speaker 1: starving because he's got food right here, all right, So 910 00:51:27,239 --> 00:51:30,600 Speaker 1: that's um, that's a very disgruntled cat. He's very angry. 911 00:51:31,280 --> 00:51:34,200 Speaker 1: Does he have an accent? Yeah, he's British. So I 912 00:51:34,239 --> 00:51:38,160 Speaker 1: see him like this? Why why why don't you feed me? No? 913 00:51:38,440 --> 00:51:42,279 Speaker 1: He got second rate food? I think he's better now. 914 00:51:42,320 --> 00:51:45,719 Speaker 1: I feel like we're just running improv Yeah, I think 915 00:51:45,760 --> 00:51:49,000 Speaker 1: he's like this. You know, he's just look at him. 916 00:51:49,080 --> 00:51:52,759 Speaker 1: I don't mind. He's got a list of grievances. He does. 917 00:51:52,920 --> 00:51:57,120 Speaker 1: I've got a bigger and more. You want bigger and 918 00:51:59,560 --> 00:52:03,480 Speaker 1: so I've got some grievances, you folks. It's not right 919 00:52:03,600 --> 00:52:07,680 Speaker 1: for me to just constantly be given no food. Yeah, 920 00:52:08,360 --> 00:52:10,319 Speaker 1: so the food you gave me is what my mom 921 00:52:10,400 --> 00:52:14,160 Speaker 1: would call sub port, not sub part. You like it, 922 00:52:14,280 --> 00:52:20,560 Speaker 1: no subpar that exactly, so exactly. Got play the puns 923 00:52:20,600 --> 00:52:22,080 Speaker 1: the whole time. So this is how it would be. 924 00:52:22,400 --> 00:52:24,879 Speaker 1: That's how I feel. I've got big eyes because there's 925 00:52:24,920 --> 00:52:27,920 Speaker 1: times I'm cute, but don't come near makes a scratch 926 00:52:27,960 --> 00:52:31,960 Speaker 1: your freaking basil. That's what I look. That's happy when 927 00:52:32,000 --> 00:52:35,239 Speaker 1: I'm happy, which is never never, So don't come near me. 928 00:52:35,920 --> 00:52:38,560 Speaker 1: My little box is mine. Kate came in the other 929 00:52:38,680 --> 00:52:41,239 Speaker 1: day tried to drop a deuce in my little box. 930 00:52:41,320 --> 00:52:47,879 Speaker 1: Not that's that right, I'm gonna shoot keep you found 931 00:52:47,920 --> 00:52:50,480 Speaker 1: it in a cracker jack box. It's not really a 932 00:52:50,560 --> 00:52:54,640 Speaker 1: love ray. You're just making noise. Okay, So of course 933 00:52:54,640 --> 00:52:59,759 Speaker 1: you're not. You don't transform a girl. Cat deal fits No. 934 00:53:00,120 --> 00:53:02,040 Speaker 1: There there's a show there, you go there, there's a 935 00:53:02,080 --> 00:53:04,719 Speaker 1: show that would be my Angry Cat. And you would 936 00:53:04,719 --> 00:53:07,000 Speaker 1: then go, thank you, Phil, And then you would have 937 00:53:07,040 --> 00:53:08,440 Speaker 1: me leave the room because you didn't even learn my 938 00:53:08,520 --> 00:53:10,320 Speaker 1: name as I was getting in there. That's what that 939 00:53:10,360 --> 00:53:11,920 Speaker 1: would happen with me. It takes me a long time 940 00:53:12,000 --> 00:53:16,120 Speaker 1: to learn people. Okay, So I have one very quick 941 00:53:16,200 --> 00:53:21,239 Speaker 1: question then for you, for all intensive purposes. You've now 942 00:53:21,480 --> 00:53:23,680 Speaker 1: got ten or twelve actors, and let's say you're doing 943 00:53:23,680 --> 00:53:26,680 Speaker 1: an ensemble. You you're a very shy person. You're in 944 00:53:26,760 --> 00:53:28,960 Speaker 1: your first record. You've now got ten or twelve actors 945 00:53:29,080 --> 00:53:33,359 Speaker 1: staring at you, waiting for direction. Were you terrified? Were 946 00:53:33,520 --> 00:53:35,800 Speaker 1: you just I'm going to fake it till I make it? 947 00:53:36,280 --> 00:53:38,760 Speaker 1: Were you quiet in the mic? Or did you jump in? Nope, 948 00:53:38,840 --> 00:53:42,640 Speaker 1: I jumped in. There you go and It was the 949 00:53:42,920 --> 00:53:47,200 Speaker 1: best thing I ever did for myself because I found 950 00:53:47,239 --> 00:53:49,759 Speaker 1: my voice. I heard my voice, and I found my 951 00:53:49,880 --> 00:53:54,080 Speaker 1: voice and I got into it late, um, but it 952 00:53:54,360 --> 00:53:59,160 Speaker 1: was exactly what I needed. And I mean, there are 953 00:53:59,239 --> 00:54:04,360 Speaker 1: days I'm still terrified their days where it doesn't go great, 954 00:54:04,520 --> 00:54:08,120 Speaker 1: and there are days where you know you're left. You 955 00:54:08,200 --> 00:54:12,400 Speaker 1: know it's not it's it's it's a phenomenal career. And 956 00:54:12,520 --> 00:54:15,440 Speaker 1: I am super lucky. There are days where it sucks 957 00:54:16,719 --> 00:54:22,239 Speaker 1: everything but like everything, but on balance, I am such 958 00:54:22,280 --> 00:54:27,680 Speaker 1: a lucky human being. And I remember on Penguins we 959 00:54:27,760 --> 00:54:31,600 Speaker 1: did a Christmas special and Carl Reiner played Santa Claus 960 00:54:31,719 --> 00:54:39,320 Speaker 1: come on well and and your dad Elliot Goulde. I 961 00:54:39,840 --> 00:54:43,200 Speaker 1: freaked out, did you you didn't know? I didn't get 962 00:54:43,200 --> 00:54:45,240 Speaker 1: to recorded any of these people. Hearing all these incredible 963 00:54:45,320 --> 00:54:50,839 Speaker 1: people any getting me gold. I was like looking at 964 00:54:51,080 --> 00:54:52,640 Speaker 1: I don't know why I was looking at school, because 965 00:54:52,680 --> 00:54:55,759 Speaker 1: what was he going to do? You know, get over 966 00:54:55,840 --> 00:54:58,840 Speaker 1: with Lisa, And I was just and I did it 967 00:54:58,960 --> 00:55:02,239 Speaker 1: and he was so over. He's like, thank you so much, 968 00:55:02,280 --> 00:55:05,719 Speaker 1: and he was so receptive and so into it, and 969 00:55:06,120 --> 00:55:08,879 Speaker 1: just every time after that was a joy. And then 970 00:55:09,800 --> 00:55:12,279 Speaker 1: years later we when we were doing Penguins and Carl 971 00:55:12,360 --> 00:55:16,080 Speaker 1: Reiner came in and I'm like, are you kidding me? 972 00:55:16,880 --> 00:55:20,600 Speaker 1: Are you You know, in my brain I'm directing Carl 973 00:55:20,640 --> 00:55:25,680 Speaker 1: Reiner and I'm outside my body. And and I don't 974 00:55:25,719 --> 00:55:28,080 Speaker 1: think we we didn't do that as an ensemble, although 975 00:55:28,120 --> 00:55:33,839 Speaker 1: I think that the actors were around. You get that's 976 00:55:33,840 --> 00:55:36,600 Speaker 1: the thing, and you get to work. What's what's sad 977 00:55:36,800 --> 00:55:40,120 Speaker 1: now is what what's great now is animation was the 978 00:55:40,160 --> 00:55:43,279 Speaker 1: first thing to come back. And we were recording right away, 979 00:55:43,280 --> 00:55:45,480 Speaker 1: and we figured it out and we re recorded what 980 00:55:45,600 --> 00:55:47,959 Speaker 1: we had to and it's been this huge learning curve 981 00:55:48,040 --> 00:55:53,439 Speaker 1: through COVID and it's incredible. And now it doesn't matter 982 00:55:53,480 --> 00:55:56,200 Speaker 1: where you are. We can record you anywhere. You could 983 00:55:56,200 --> 00:55:57,680 Speaker 1: be in your closet, but you can be in your 984 00:55:57,719 --> 00:56:01,680 Speaker 1: closet in Sydney, Australia, in you know, Budapest. It doesn't 985 00:56:02,560 --> 00:56:05,120 Speaker 1: doesn't because I remember when I was recording in New York, 986 00:56:05,160 --> 00:56:06,880 Speaker 1: it was a hole to do. Oh it was a 987 00:56:07,040 --> 00:56:10,160 Speaker 1: sink and patch and this it took hours and like 988 00:56:10,280 --> 00:56:11,960 Speaker 1: it had to have a certain kind of engineer at 989 00:56:11,960 --> 00:56:16,239 Speaker 1: a certain studio are and and and only be in 990 00:56:16,400 --> 00:56:20,760 Speaker 1: the last five years would this have been possible nowadays, 991 00:56:20,800 --> 00:56:23,520 Speaker 1: you wouldn't have had to leave your dorm room would 992 00:56:23,520 --> 00:56:25,600 Speaker 1: have been maybe she would have had to find a 993 00:56:25,680 --> 00:56:31,280 Speaker 1: real quiet dorm. Yeah, I mean you can be the equipment. 994 00:56:31,320 --> 00:56:36,600 Speaker 1: You get the equipment now for broadcast auditions, technically you 995 00:56:36,719 --> 00:56:40,040 Speaker 1: can do them on your voice memo. Jason Martin used 996 00:56:40,040 --> 00:56:42,160 Speaker 1: to do it in his car, covered in a towel. 997 00:56:42,760 --> 00:56:44,360 Speaker 1: Well he booked. I mean, this is even back in 998 00:56:44,400 --> 00:56:46,719 Speaker 1: the day. He booked spirited away from his closet. That 999 00:56:46,800 --> 00:56:48,920 Speaker 1: was even back in the day. So cool. So we 1000 00:56:49,560 --> 00:56:53,239 Speaker 1: still get to work with tremendous phenomenal people, but we're 1001 00:56:53,320 --> 00:56:55,080 Speaker 1: never in the same room now, And I don't know 1002 00:56:55,160 --> 00:56:58,719 Speaker 1: when that goes back because sad rules are dictating what 1003 00:56:58,840 --> 00:57:01,240 Speaker 1: we do in a recording booth yea, and the booth 1004 00:57:01,280 --> 00:57:03,719 Speaker 1: has to sit for half an hour if people go in. 1005 00:57:04,000 --> 00:57:05,759 Speaker 1: I always record in the booth. Still, I always go 1006 00:57:05,840 --> 00:57:07,799 Speaker 1: in and recording the You have your own booth at 1007 00:57:07,800 --> 00:57:09,759 Speaker 1: your house, no, but I go I I don't use it. 1008 00:57:09,880 --> 00:57:12,360 Speaker 1: I use it for auditions, But I still physically go 1009 00:57:12,480 --> 00:57:15,520 Speaker 1: into the studio and they couldn't be safer. But now 1010 00:57:15,680 --> 00:57:18,600 Speaker 1: you couldn't record with somebody because your union wouldn't know. 1011 00:57:18,840 --> 00:57:20,840 Speaker 1: You don't do it. I don't want to hear it. 1012 00:57:21,520 --> 00:57:23,440 Speaker 1: You've also coined the phrase, so you can start using this. 1013 00:57:23,960 --> 00:57:26,240 Speaker 1: Coined the phrase b CT which is before COVID time. 1014 00:57:26,360 --> 00:57:30,160 Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, so in the before times we would, you know. 1015 00:57:30,800 --> 00:57:35,040 Speaker 1: But but we still get to record amazing people. And 1016 00:57:35,160 --> 00:57:37,400 Speaker 1: now they're more apt to do it because we can 1017 00:57:37,480 --> 00:57:40,320 Speaker 1: send out. They do have to do a little Some 1018 00:57:40,440 --> 00:57:44,960 Speaker 1: people get a little irritated doing some of the engineering. Um, 1019 00:57:45,120 --> 00:57:48,000 Speaker 1: because that's I still don't really know how to do it. Yeah. No, 1020 00:57:48,280 --> 00:57:50,680 Speaker 1: And I went to Trevor's house for the first part 1021 00:57:50,720 --> 00:57:53,800 Speaker 1: of COVID. I literally went to Trevor's house. He would 1022 00:57:53,840 --> 00:57:55,960 Speaker 1: wear a mask. I would wear a mask, and then 1023 00:57:56,000 --> 00:57:57,840 Speaker 1: I would walk past him. I'd go into his booth. 1024 00:57:57,880 --> 00:58:00,320 Speaker 1: He'd have it COVID protocols, like dude, I'll cord you. 1025 00:58:00,400 --> 00:58:02,160 Speaker 1: And it was the greatest thing in the world. Is 1026 00:58:02,920 --> 00:58:05,680 Speaker 1: Trevor Is Trevor one of our engineers? No, Trevor devl 1027 00:58:05,880 --> 00:58:08,440 Speaker 1: is an phenomenal actor who listens. He's now in Texas. 1028 00:58:09,280 --> 00:58:11,800 Speaker 1: He moved to Texas. Oh yeah, Trevor's lived in Texas 1029 00:58:11,840 --> 00:58:20,040 Speaker 1: from the way Lissa went to to Texas. Oh yeah, 1030 00:58:20,680 --> 00:58:22,880 Speaker 1: so what do you think the future of animation is then? 1031 00:58:23,280 --> 00:58:27,600 Speaker 1: Besides this integrated the new way of recording, regardless of 1032 00:58:27,680 --> 00:58:30,200 Speaker 1: the I think it's going to be hybrid from now on. 1033 00:58:30,440 --> 00:58:33,240 Speaker 1: I think it's going to be. It's not going to 1034 00:58:33,280 --> 00:58:35,200 Speaker 1: go back a percent, not for a long time. I 1035 00:58:35,280 --> 00:58:37,600 Speaker 1: don't think. I think.

When we would put her 1138 01:04:23,880 --> 01:04:26,040 Speaker 1: like on camera, people feel like they have to like 1139 01:04:26,200 --> 01:04:28,760 Speaker 1: make eye contact with you. You're in the scene, so 1140 01:04:28,880 --> 01:04:31,000 Speaker 1: they turn away and they're a they're off Mike, but 1141 01:04:31,120 --> 01:04:35,240 Speaker 1: be nobody's off books and I don't know what reading. 1142 01:04:36,600 --> 01:04:39,520 Speaker 1: I'm usually off book. Yeah, I'm usually having because you're 1143 01:04:39,520 --> 01:04:44,960 Speaker 1: improvising everything because everything is falling on the But so 1144 01:04:45,360 --> 01:04:49,160 Speaker 1: I always say, you know, they're like I can do 1145 01:04:49,200 --> 01:04:51,000 Speaker 1: funny voice them. I great, but you have to be 1146 01:04:51,080 --> 01:04:54,120 Speaker 1: an actor. That's we keep hearing that same thing over 1147 01:04:54,200 --> 01:04:58,360 Speaker 1: and over again. Yeah, I mean, very lucky that we 1148 01:04:58,480 --> 01:05:02,400 Speaker 1: get to dispense that advice. But d has distilled it 1149 01:05:02,480 --> 01:05:07,240 Speaker 1: in such a it's such a kind hearted, genuine breakdown. 1150 01:05:09,320 --> 01:05:13,480 Speaker 1: It's throw and Steve Bloom and Everett Oliver and all 1151 01:05:13,520 --> 01:05:15,760 Speaker 1: these people who teach. I have taught a couple of 1152 01:05:15,840 --> 01:05:18,560 Speaker 1: Mike Everett. I'm not really a teacher because I'm not 1153 01:05:18,640 --> 01:05:20,920 Speaker 1: I don't come from acting. I can't teach you how 1154 01:05:21,000 --> 01:05:24,640 Speaker 1: to act. Right. Christie came as a sixteen year old 1155 01:05:24,640 --> 01:05:28,400 Speaker 1: phenomenal actress. I could work with her, and we could 1156 01:05:28,680 --> 01:05:30,959 Speaker 1: work together, but I couldn't teach her to act because 1157 01:05:30,960 --> 01:05:34,560 Speaker 1: I'm not an acting teacher. I'm my My way into 1158 01:05:34,680 --> 01:05:37,400 Speaker 1: KP was authentic, and that's kind of you. You helped 1159 01:05:37,480 --> 01:05:40,720 Speaker 1: me along. But we we grew together, you know. Yeah, 1160 01:05:41,400 --> 01:05:44,160 Speaker 1: but we would come together and we would and look, 1161 01:05:44,280 --> 01:05:52,080 Speaker 1: she carried the show. She had the bulk of the day. Yeah, Christie, 1162 01:05:52,160 --> 01:05:55,640 Speaker 1: you had all the dialogue, and you were by yourself 1163 01:05:55,960 --> 01:05:58,080 Speaker 1: as a sixteen year old all the time. I'm going 1164 01:05:58,160 --> 01:06:01,320 Speaker 1: to cry. You should, I mean, so you should cry 1165 01:06:01,440 --> 01:06:07,280 Speaker 1: right now, crying on cue that's so sweetly, doesn't matter. 1166 01:06:07,520 --> 01:06:11,160 Speaker 1: I didn't do anything dynamic with my voice. But again, 1167 01:06:11,440 --> 01:06:14,960 Speaker 1: because you acted, you didn't need to. You didn't need 1168 01:06:15,080 --> 01:06:18,920 Speaker 1: to change your voice until very much later. Sure, yes, 1169 01:06:19,080 --> 01:06:21,200 Speaker 1: as and then you had I can still do the voice, 1170 01:06:21,320 --> 01:06:23,280 Speaker 1: by the way, Yes, of course you can figured it 1171 01:06:23,320 --> 01:06:26,919 Speaker 1: out the technique now too. And you know you could 1172 01:06:26,920 --> 01:06:30,400 Speaker 1: also go at seven o'clock at night and show up 1173 01:06:30,440 --> 01:06:35,840 Speaker 1: on Broadway for crying out loud. You ented, but you 1174 01:06:36,200 --> 01:06:39,720 Speaker 1: learned how to use it right as you grew up. Yes, 1175 01:06:39,840 --> 01:06:42,080 Speaker 1: and I had the support in the mentorship. I think 1176 01:06:42,120 --> 01:06:44,040 Speaker 1: what's really interesting is that, yes, it's if you're a 1177 01:06:44,120 --> 01:06:46,480 Speaker 1: voice over actor, you can't just do the voice over. 1178 01:06:47,000 --> 01:06:49,320 Speaker 1: You have to be the actor part. Know you're an actor. 1179 01:06:49,640 --> 01:06:51,680 Speaker 1: And again because that same thing we've all we've all 1180 01:06:51,720 --> 01:06:54,520 Speaker 1: met people I do funny voices, that's great, but you 1181 01:06:54,640 --> 01:06:56,760 Speaker 1: got to be an actor or the people that say, oh, 1182 01:06:56,800 --> 01:06:58,760 Speaker 1: you're not a real actor, you're a voice actor, like 1183 01:06:58,840 --> 01:07:01,840 Speaker 1: that drives me and say, yeah, yeah, I want to 1184 01:07:01,880 --> 01:07:04,680 Speaker 1: Punch's just somebody who doesn't know. Well, that's exactly right, 1185 01:07:04,760 --> 01:07:08,480 Speaker 1: Like this is something you're interested in, then let me 1186 01:07:08,680 --> 01:07:14,600 Speaker 1: say go to acting, you know, or learn your craft, 1187 01:07:14,920 --> 01:07:20,280 Speaker 1: because it absolutely is one great advice from a great director.
