So we're gonna talk about your shirt. 43 00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:21,160 Speaker 1: We're gonna talk about the stuff in the backgrounds, like 44 00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:23,320 Speaker 1: what kind of cherry is sitting on? Agent? Yeah, we've 45 00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:34,919 Speaker 1: we're pulling it strong. Are you sitting on? So we 46 00:02:34,919 --> 00:02:38,440 Speaker 1: were talking about first of all, all things voiceover, obviously, 47 00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:41,519 Speaker 1: and we were looking at certain things about your career 48 00:02:41,639 --> 00:02:44,200 Speaker 1: because the first thing that pops up is your age. 49 00:02:44,280 --> 00:02:49,519 Speaker 1: You're young. You're sixteen, yes, sir, and sixteen, and to 50 00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:52,359 Speaker 1: have the career you have, especially in the voiceover world, 51 00:02:52,440 --> 00:02:55,000 Speaker 1: is is pretty remarkable. So how did you get started 52 00:02:55,400 --> 00:02:59,680 Speaker 1: doing animation? As far as how do I get started? Well, 53 00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:01,800 Speaker 1: you know, I started acting like on screen when I 54 00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:03,959 Speaker 1: was six. My dad just threw me into that because 55 00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:06,480 Speaker 1: he thought it would be nice. But um, I don't 56 00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:11,239 Speaker 1: even remember my first voice over. I just remember it happening, 57 00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:15,560 Speaker 1: and then everything builds up upon that over the years. Yeah, 58 00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:17,280 Speaker 1: well what I thought was super cool and when we 59 00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:20,240 Speaker 1: look and I can relate to I also started acting 60 00:03:20,400 --> 00:03:23,440 Speaker 1: on screen when I was six years old. Um. Well, 61 00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:27,840 Speaker 1: actually I started in theater um and um I think 62 00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:32,880 Speaker 1: I think when you start young, um, it makes you 63 00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:37,960 Speaker 1: very like a malleable, like to do many different things. Right. So, 64 00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:41,880 Speaker 1: even though you know you're using your voice to understand 65 00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:44,240 Speaker 1: how to be a character and to be different characters 66 00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:48,920 Speaker 1: at a young age, that translates pretty quickly over to 67 00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:54,000 Speaker 1: voice to voice over work. Right. Yes, see, that's interesting 68 00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:55,760 Speaker 1: that you would say that because I've worked with a 69 00:03:55,880 --> 00:03:59,080 Speaker 1: number of on camera actors and maybe it's because they 70 00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:03,000 Speaker 1: didn't start. Yes, it's because you weren't able to really 71 00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:06,200 Speaker 1: transition as well into the voiceover world as you would 72 00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:09,720 Speaker 1: expect them. And and so it's you. You're working with 73 00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:11,920 Speaker 1: somebody that you've admired for years and years and years 74 00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:14,080 Speaker 1: as an on camera actor. And AJ, we're going to 75 00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:16,280 Speaker 1: get into the list of people that you have worked with, 76 00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:19,360 Speaker 1: because it's to say it's impressive. Um, when you get 77 00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:22,719 Speaker 1: into Kathy Bates, Samuel Jackson, Ted Dancon, we're just throwing 78 00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:28,200 Speaker 1: out incredible. Um. But I think you're right because you 79 00:04:28,279 --> 00:04:30,640 Speaker 1: get set in your ways when it comes to your 80 00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:33,040 Speaker 1: craft and if you are strictly an on camera actor 81 00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:36,080 Speaker 1: and then you're thrown into voiceover, um, it is a 82 00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:37,880 Speaker 1: different thing. Do you So, do you even remember what 83 00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:42,000 Speaker 1: your first voiceover gig was? I think it was, Um, 84 00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:45,960 Speaker 1: I did a Barbie.

Well, it's on camera too. Yeah, there's kids around, 98 00:05:28,760 --> 00:05:31,080 Speaker 1: there's candy.

Yeah, well let's 153 00:08:27,760 --> 00:08:30,640 Speaker 1: do bat Wheels first. First of all, it's been a 154 00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:34,439 Speaker 1: great experience. Uh, Mr Michael and Mr Simon, They've been 155 00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:38,319 Speaker 1: amazing in the studio. It's been great to work with them. 156 00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:41,400 Speaker 1: And I remember when I first got the job and 157 00:08:41,440 --> 00:08:42,720 Speaker 1: my dad and I were looking at it. We had 158 00:08:42,760 --> 00:08:45,280 Speaker 1: to do some research on who Duke Thomas was, who 159 00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:48,000 Speaker 1: a black Robin was, and we as it went off, 160 00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:50,000 Speaker 1: they're like, oh, this is this is pretty nifty. I 161 00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:52,960 Speaker 1: get to be the first black Robin on screen. That 162 00:08:53,120 --> 00:08:59,320 Speaker 1: is huge beyond my comprehension. So but um yeah, bat 163 00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:03,520 Speaker 1: Wheels just a kid friendly Batman TV show, more based 164 00:09:03,520 --> 00:09:06,679 Speaker 1: around cars, so like Gotham City is more like an 165 00:09:06,679 --> 00:09:09,000 Speaker 1: amusement park, a bunch of rams, a bunch of swoop 166 00:09:09,080 --> 00:09:12,360 Speaker 1: de loops, a bunch of freeways, and uh, just a 167 00:09:12,400 --> 00:09:16,160 Speaker 1: preschool friendly, not watered down version of Batman, but definitely 168 00:09:16,200 --> 00:09:18,719 Speaker 1: a less you know, dark Batman because you know these 169 00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:21,320 Speaker 1: are preschoolers that need to be watching this. Sure, no, 170 00:09:21,480 --> 00:09:24,240 Speaker 1: and there's nothing wrong with that. So the Bruce tim 171 00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:27,120 Speaker 1: who is one of the biggest creators of Batman, He 172 00:09:27,160 --> 00:09:30,000 Speaker 1: created Batman, the animated series, Batman beyond Justice League, some 173 00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:32,600 Speaker 1: of the biggest things ever. He always said, because he's 174 00:09:32,679 --> 00:09:35,840 Speaker 1: become the the authority on Batman, he always said, there 175 00:09:35,880 --> 00:09:39,720 Speaker 1: always needs to be a Batman for everyone. So there's 176 00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:42,440 Speaker 1: a Batman for little kids and a Batman for adults. 177 00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:45,079 Speaker 1: Sometimes the movies are very dark and the cartoons very light. 178 00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:46,960 Speaker 1: Sometimes the cartoons are very dark and the movies are 179 00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:49,200 Speaker 1: very light. But there's always a Batman for everybody. And 180 00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:51,079 Speaker 1: this is a perfect example. Bat Wheels. So it's for 181 00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:55,120 Speaker 1: preschoolers that can get introduced to the world of the 182 00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:57,880 Speaker 1: dark night, which is pretty rage And I would say 183 00:09:57,920 --> 00:10:00,600 Speaker 1: that the aesthetic from what I've seen, it still does 184 00:10:00,679 --> 00:10:03,959 Speaker 1: have some It seems very nighttime. It feels very dark 185 00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:06,480 Speaker 1: and still got they're bright. They're like in the caves 186 00:10:06,520 --> 00:10:08,680 Speaker 1: and whatnot, and it's like they're bright lights or what 187 00:10:08,760 --> 00:10:11,679 Speaker 1: kind of shine from within, and it kind of almost 188 00:10:11,760 --> 00:10:14,520 Speaker 1: humanizes the cars and makes them I feel like, very 189 00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:16,520 Speaker 1: accessible to, Like my kids are going to love the show. 190 00:10:16,640 --> 00:10:19,680 Speaker 1: So speaking on what you said about the night time. 191 00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:22,160 Speaker 1: I remember, I remember in our interview that we did 192 00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:24,520 Speaker 1: with the directors, that was what they were going for. 193 00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:28,280 Speaker 1: They wanted just bright light during nighttime, making Gotham look 194 00:10:28,760 --> 00:10:33,400 Speaker 1: fun and less dark than in previous installments of Batman. So, yeah, 195 00:10:33,440 --> 00:10:37,360 Speaker 1: you want to make the first too curious preschool or 196 00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:40,880 Speaker 1: I would think it's probably more cars, right, cars meets Batman. 197 00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:44,760 Speaker 1: I think that's probably how will yet Yeah, a little 198 00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:47,000 Speaker 1: mash up. I think that's very very cool. Um so 199 00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:50,040 Speaker 1: what when you were doing your research? What did you 200 00:10:50,080 --> 00:10:52,760 Speaker 1: discover about about the Robbins that you were reading about? 201 00:10:52,760 --> 00:10:54,640 Speaker 1: Because there are so many and there's some that are 202 00:10:54,679 --> 00:10:56,559 Speaker 1: loved and some that are hated and some that I 203 00:10:56,640 --> 00:10:59,679 Speaker 1: mean they're tod they killed. How can you hate Robins? 204 00:10:59,720 --> 00:11:02,319 Speaker 1: Are you kidding? So when when Robin was um, well, 205 00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:05,440 Speaker 1: there's because there's different Robin. So some people like you know, 206 00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:09,600 Speaker 1: for instance, uh, Jason Todd. People didn't like Jason Todd 207 00:11:09,640 --> 00:11:11,880 Speaker 1: at all, whereas people love Dick Grayson who went off 208 00:11:11,880 --> 00:11:14,679 Speaker 1: and became Nightwing. There's I mean, everybody's got all of 209 00:11:14,720 --> 00:11:17,760 Speaker 1: these backgrounds and everybody has a favorite Batman. So there's 210 00:11:17,760 --> 00:11:20,520 Speaker 1: a famous story where they put out a comic book 211 00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:25,040 Speaker 1: series where Jason Todd was essentially the Joker captures Jason 212 00:11:25,080 --> 00:11:28,040 Speaker 1: Todd and they left it up to the audience what happens, 213 00:11:28,640 --> 00:11:32,760 Speaker 1: and it was like voted to kill him. So so 214 00:11:32,840 --> 00:11:35,720 Speaker 1: that's what happened, is Jason Todd was killed. Wait, see, then, 215 00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:39,440 Speaker 1: how do you be a likable um? How do you 216 00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:41,920 Speaker 1: become a likable Robin? Then? Well, I don't think you don't. 217 00:11:41,920 --> 00:11:44,000 Speaker 1: I don't think you get to choose. It's it's something 218 00:11:44,600 --> 00:11:46,880 Speaker 1: you know, how do Why do some some people like 219 00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:49,800 Speaker 1: certain characters on television shows and some other characters are hated. 220 00:11:49,840 --> 00:11:52,520 Speaker 1: It's just that's It's the same with comic books. Did 221 00:11:52,559 --> 00:11:55,800 Speaker 1: you Now we've talked about some of the shows you 222 00:11:55,840 --> 00:11:57,920 Speaker 1: liked growing up, and we've talked about some of the 223 00:11:57,920 --> 00:12:00,760 Speaker 1: shows that you're doing. Now, do you have a dream role? 224 00:12:01,240 --> 00:12:03,840 Speaker 1: Like if you could pick any animated character you wanted 225 00:12:03,880 --> 00:12:05,320 Speaker 1: to do, is there is there when you would pick 226 00:12:05,400 --> 00:12:08,960 Speaker 1: right away? Is that Spider Man? It? Actually that would 227 00:12:08,960 --> 00:12:13,160 Speaker 1: be one of them. But honestly, I'd want to voice 228 00:12:13,280 --> 00:12:16,240 Speaker 1: myself like me animated. I feel like that would be 229 00:12:17,080 --> 00:12:21,439 Speaker 1: something that would just never heard that before. Okay, So 230 00:12:21,559 --> 00:12:25,320 Speaker 1: I like what's now. I'm curious what in what iteration 231 00:12:25,360 --> 00:12:27,600 Speaker 1: would you be just you? Would you be a superhero? 232 00:12:27,640 --> 00:12:30,000 Speaker 1: Would you like what would it be? You know what? 233 00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:33,400 Speaker 1: Thinking about that, I would want to be some type 234 00:12:33,440 --> 00:12:38,199 Speaker 1: of superhero. Basketball piano playing like for everything I do now, 235 00:12:38,440 --> 00:12:42,240 Speaker 1: So that's just pretty over the top version of me. 236 00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:46,640 Speaker 1: We know you're a big basketball fan. But you said, 237 00:12:46,640 --> 00:12:48,959 Speaker 1: do you play the piano as well? Your musician as well? Oh? Yeah, 238 00:12:49,120 --> 00:12:50,840 Speaker 1: I actually have a piano right here next to me, 239 00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:57,200 Speaker 1: so I've been playing piano for even years. Now do 240 00:12:57,240 --> 00:12:59,400 Speaker 1: you now do you sing as well? Are you songwriter 241 00:12:59,480 --> 00:13:03,120 Speaker 1: or is it just more piano? I can I do 242 00:13:03,200 --> 00:13:05,440 Speaker 1: sing A little bit. I do sing, I seeing when 243 00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:07,800 Speaker 1: I'm playing my piano all that. I think a j 244 00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:12,280 Speaker 1: might be one of the first piano playing I know 245 00:13:12,320 --> 00:13:15,560 Speaker 1: we've had some musician voice actors, but I don't think 246 00:13:15,559 --> 00:13:19,160 Speaker 1: we've spoken to somebody who who? Who? Who? Does that? 247 00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:22,240 Speaker 1: Do you feel like your relationship to music kind of 248 00:13:22,280 --> 00:13:24,959 Speaker 1: informs the way that you're like going about you know 249 00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:28,960 Speaker 1: the way that you're doing your voice acting honestly, yes, 250 00:13:29,320 --> 00:13:31,920 Speaker 1: Like when you think of rhythm and cadence, all that 251 00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:35,440 Speaker 1: goes into play when you're doing a scene, especially in voiceover, 252 00:13:35,480 --> 00:13:38,080 Speaker 1: because you know, the movement isn't really there, so you 253 00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:39,360 Speaker 1: have to do all of it with your voice, so 254 00:13:39,400 --> 00:13:41,200 Speaker 1: you have to just keep that in mind while you're recording. 255 00:13:41,240 --> 00:13:45,160 Speaker 1: So yeah, I like that question. Yeah, there's there's a 256 00:13:45,200 --> 00:13:48,920 Speaker 1: inordinate number of voiceover actors that are also musicians. It's 257 00:13:49,040 --> 00:13:51,880 Speaker 1: I would go so far as to say most so 258 00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:54,800 Speaker 1: most of the people we talked to also have some 259 00:13:54,840 --> 00:13:59,120 Speaker 1: sort of musical background. It lends itself to using your 260 00:13:59,160 --> 00:14:02,600 Speaker 1: voice as an instrument. It whether that's singing or changing 261 00:14:02,640 --> 00:14:04,880 Speaker 1: the voices that you're doing or whatever it is. It's 262 00:14:04,960 --> 00:14:09,280 Speaker 1: just there is something very musical, very lyrical about being 263 00:14:09,320 --> 00:14:12,400 Speaker 1: a voice over actor. Um. And it's also I hate 264 00:14:12,440 --> 00:14:13,959 Speaker 1: to say this, but it makes you, man, it makes 265 00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:19,320 Speaker 1: you perfect for Disney, like for the Disney Disney actor, 266 00:14:19,400 --> 00:14:20,920 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. It's like, you're gonna be 267 00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:24,800 Speaker 1: the musician. You're gonna be You're happy, You're fine. It's like, yeah, okay, jeez. 268 00:14:25,600 --> 00:14:28,880 Speaker 1: The amounts I've gone on for stuff like that is 269 00:14:28,960 --> 00:14:36,360 Speaker 1: just I'm sure. And now, is is acting something that 270 00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:39,520 Speaker 1: you're interested in as a career? Is voice acting something 271 00:14:39,560 --> 00:14:41,360 Speaker 1: you want to focus on or you like, hey, I'm 272 00:14:41,400 --> 00:14:46,160 Speaker 1: doing this until I get my basketball scholarship. Um, honestly, 273 00:14:46,200 --> 00:14:48,880 Speaker 1: I'm gonna say, I don't know. I was gonna say 274 00:14:48,880 --> 00:14:51,480 Speaker 1: it's a mix of all three, but no acting and 275 00:14:51,680 --> 00:14:54,280 Speaker 1: voice acting is definitely something that I'm going to be 276 00:14:54,360 --> 00:14:59,400 Speaker 1: doing until I'm old. So yeah, I don't see myself 277 00:14:59,400 --> 00:15:01,880 Speaker 1: stopping I have. I enjoy it too much and it's 278 00:15:01,920 --> 00:15:05,520 Speaker 1: too not easy, but it's just it's such a it's 279 00:15:05,520 --> 00:15:08,560 Speaker 1: a fun job where I get to be myself, I 280 00:15:08,560 --> 00:15:11,600 Speaker 1: get to be other people, and I just it's just 281 00:15:11,640 --> 00:15:14,280 Speaker 1: so entertaining the different things that I can do on 282 00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:18,520 Speaker 1: an off screen. Are you working on any voices in general, Like, 283 00:15:18,560 --> 00:15:22,320 Speaker 1: have you been trying to experiment with different voices or 284 00:15:22,680 --> 00:15:25,920 Speaker 1: is it mostly like you're familiarizing yourself with your voice 285 00:15:25,960 --> 00:15:30,040 Speaker 1: as you are at sixteen. I mean, honestly, I'm not 286 00:15:30,120 --> 00:15:33,320 Speaker 1: really like I've been doing a British accent or it's 287 00:15:33,320 --> 00:15:35,240 Speaker 1: like kind of a mix of a British and Australian accent. 288 00:15:35,640 --> 00:15:38,160 Speaker 1: I can never differentiate the two. But that's really the 289 00:15:38,160 --> 00:15:41,760 Speaker 1: only voice I do consistently, and I've been trying to 290 00:15:41,760 --> 00:15:43,600 Speaker 1: work on that more because you know, I like people 291 00:15:43,600 --> 00:15:45,960 Speaker 1: like Tom Holland who just they have such a great 292 00:15:45,960 --> 00:15:47,640 Speaker 1: American accents, so I'm like, you know, I want to 293 00:15:47,680 --> 00:15:49,880 Speaker 1: have a great British accent. So you know, maybe a 294 00:15:49,960 --> 00:15:54,600 Speaker 1: British film comes up and I might be able to that. Awesome. 295 00:15:54,960 --> 00:15:58,720 Speaker 1: You want of a really easy technique for differentiating between 296 00:15:58,760 --> 00:16:02,040 Speaker 1: English and Australian. Yes, So the easiest thing you can 297 00:16:02,080 --> 00:16:05,120 Speaker 1: do is to get into Australian. Is you talk about 298 00:16:05,120 --> 00:16:07,720 Speaker 1: saying they always say gooday, you know, good eye, So 299 00:16:07,760 --> 00:16:10,400 Speaker 1: you say it's a good eye, like I've got a 300 00:16:10,440 --> 00:16:12,640 Speaker 1: great eye. Good eye. So if you're saying a good eye, 301 00:16:13,160 --> 00:16:16,120 Speaker 1: then all of a sudden you're Australian good eye all right? 302 00:16:16,280 --> 00:16:18,960 Speaker 1: Then it throws And thirteen that's the other one. They 303 00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:23,960 Speaker 1: talk about numbers, So thirteen it's you know, with with 304 00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:27,600 Speaker 1: British it's their team. But with Australians thirteen. So you 305 00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:30,720 Speaker 1: just you run through British. British is more sophisticated, like 306 00:16:30,720 --> 00:16:33,440 Speaker 1: I've got a cup of tea exactly. What also depends 307 00:16:33,440 --> 00:16:35,240 Speaker 1: on the British accent you're trying to do, because you 308 00:16:35,280 --> 00:16:38,680 Speaker 1: could go very cocky, you know, anything like this, and 309 00:16:38,680 --> 00:16:40,640 Speaker 1: it doesn't matter what you're saying, because it all comes 310 00:16:40,640 --> 00:16:42,960 Speaker 1: out you know, and then they say, but you know, 311 00:16:43,040 --> 00:16:46,040 Speaker 1: dropping your hs or whatever, and then there's other ones 312 00:16:46,080 --> 00:16:48,600 Speaker 1: that you know, very very proper. It's very proper British. 313 00:16:48,600 --> 00:16:51,960 Speaker 1: So and I'm terrible at at accents, so I mean, 314 00:16:52,040 --> 00:16:55,280 Speaker 1: that's a whole another thing where accents are learnable, see 315 00:16:55,600 --> 00:16:58,440 Speaker 1: versus like, I feel like there's a lot of resources 316 00:16:58,440 --> 00:17:00,640 Speaker 1: for folks out there, even people listening to the podcast. 317 00:17:01,240 --> 00:17:04,600 Speaker 1: You can go even on YouTube and you can learn dialects. 318 00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:07,080 Speaker 1: Um I'm I think that's great a j that you're 319 00:17:07,160 --> 00:17:09,960 Speaker 1: challenging yourself to to learn new dialects. That's totally I 320 00:17:09,960 --> 00:17:12,800 Speaker 1: feel like achievable and really inspirational. Now I want to 321 00:17:12,800 --> 00:17:15,600 Speaker 1: go learn.

Honestly, don't even 329 00:17:44,480 --> 00:17:47,640 Speaker 1: know how to answer that. We're just going to plow through. 330 00:17:47,960 --> 00:17:50,720 Speaker 1: Um and a J. I do have an interesting question 331 00:17:50,720 --> 00:17:53,240 Speaker 1: for you because both Christine I grew up as child 332 00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:56,719 Speaker 1: actors as well, and the business is changing so much 333 00:17:57,240 --> 00:18:02,439 Speaker 1: from what we knew to what you're Jay were people. 334 00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:07,200 Speaker 1: UM my question is how is it still balancing your 335 00:18:07,240 --> 00:18:13,280 Speaker 1: career and school? I mean, I was just thinking about that. Um, 336 00:18:13,320 --> 00:18:16,880 Speaker 1: It's honestly not that hard, especially with technology nowadays, It's 337 00:18:16,880 --> 00:18:19,520 Speaker 1: not like I have to be at school to learn everything. 338 00:18:20,200 --> 00:18:24,520 Speaker 1: So I mean it's really quite simple, honestly. Just email 339 00:18:24,520 --> 00:18:26,920 Speaker 1: my teacher, Hey, I'm gonna miss school. I'm shooting these days, 340 00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:28,760 Speaker 1: or have an audition I have to leave early, and 341 00:18:28,800 --> 00:18:31,160 Speaker 1: they'll just send me the work. If I have any questions, 342 00:18:31,160 --> 00:18:33,280 Speaker 1: then I can go to them the next day, get 343 00:18:33,320 --> 00:18:36,480 Speaker 1: some tutoring and and when you're on the set, is 344 00:18:36,480 --> 00:18:39,520 Speaker 1: it still three hours a day? Do you still need 345 00:18:39,760 --> 00:18:42,280 Speaker 1: a studio set teacher for three hours? I do still 346 00:18:42,320 --> 00:18:45,800 Speaker 1: need okay, all right, so it hasn't changed all that much. 347 00:18:46,040 --> 00:18:49,119 Speaker 1: So when you show up, you you okay. This is 348 00:18:49,119 --> 00:18:51,840 Speaker 1: really interesting because even when I did Kim Possible, I 349 00:18:51,920 --> 00:18:55,400 Speaker 1: like did something where I didn't do three hours. Anytime 350 00:18:55,400 --> 00:18:58,679 Speaker 1: I showed up, I guess I banked on different days. 351 00:18:59,119 --> 00:19:03,800 Speaker 1: Oh that makes sense. I did I banked on the weekend. 352 00:19:04,400 --> 00:19:07,720 Speaker 1: I think I banked on the weekend. Okay. Wow, it's tough, man, 353 00:19:07,960 --> 00:19:10,320 Speaker 1: it's tough, AJ but so but you're enjoying it. It's 354 00:19:10,359 --> 00:19:13,880 Speaker 1: worth it to you to balance all that for sure. 355 00:19:15,040 --> 00:19:17,959 Speaker 1: What is it like for you to watch your voice 356 00:19:18,119 --> 00:19:24,720 Speaker 1: married to your character, your your cartoon character. It's awesome. 357 00:19:24,840 --> 00:19:28,000 Speaker 1: I remember the first little demo that they showed us, 358 00:19:28,040 --> 00:19:31,520 Speaker 1: the first bits of animation. As I was finishing recording 359 00:19:31,840 --> 00:19:35,159 Speaker 1: and just looking at I got emotional. I was like, dude, 360 00:19:35,200 --> 00:19:38,200 Speaker 1: that is me in a show that a bunch of 361 00:19:38,240 --> 00:19:40,080 Speaker 1: people are gonna watch, a show that my little brothers 362 00:19:40,119 --> 00:19:43,280 Speaker 1: are gonna love. And so I almost started crying because 363 00:19:43,280 --> 00:19:46,800 Speaker 1: I was like, that's my voice coming out of the character. 364 00:19:47,320 --> 00:19:49,480 Speaker 1: And then, like like I said before, just the black 365 00:19:49,600 --> 00:19:52,600 Speaker 1: Robin and being of like black and Puerto Rican heritage, 366 00:19:52,640 --> 00:19:56,360 Speaker 1: that's just so huge to see my voice coming out 367 00:19:56,359 --> 00:19:58,840 Speaker 1: of that animation. So I'm just I'm still stunned, and 368 00:19:58,880 --> 00:20:02,040 Speaker 1: I probably will be for as long as this goes on. 369 00:20:02,080 --> 00:20:04,240 Speaker 1: For well, I mean, you can't you can't beat first, 370 00:20:04,880 --> 00:20:08,160 Speaker 1: so you will always in history be the first iteration 371 00:20:08,160 --> 00:20:10,240 Speaker 1: of a black Robin. That's enormous. I mean, as a 372 00:20:10,320 --> 00:20:17,080 Speaker 1: Batman fanatic, that is huge. So congratulations, well earned, very cool. 373 00:20:27,119 --> 00:20:29,280 Speaker 1: Do you mind if we play a little bit now?

Yes, By, 510 00:29:03,880 --> 00:29:07,600 Speaker 1: Yeah that was you said you're working on accents. But 511 00:29:07,760 --> 00:29:12,000 Speaker 1: I heard a pirate. I heard a pirate like you 512 00:29:12,080 --> 00:29:14,440 Speaker 1: nailed it. That's that's and you know what I was. 513 00:29:14,520 --> 00:29:16,280 Speaker 1: I wanted to call back to what we talked about 514 00:29:16,320 --> 00:29:19,080 Speaker 1: when we first started interviewing a j which was the 515 00:29:19,120 --> 00:29:22,880 Speaker 1: difference between somebody who starts super young and how they're 516 00:29:22,920 --> 00:29:25,800 Speaker 1: sort of almost like introduced to the world of voice acting, 517 00:29:25,840 --> 00:29:29,400 Speaker 1: and how I think like you're like locked into it now, 518 00:29:29,680 --> 00:29:33,280 Speaker 1: you know. And I think that's because what we've talked 519 00:29:33,320 --> 00:29:37,080 Speaker 1: about with these older actors that are working on camera 520 00:29:37,160 --> 00:29:39,920 Speaker 1: mostly they have that microphone in front of them, and 521 00:29:39,920 --> 00:29:42,800 Speaker 1: they're so awkward, and so the element of like magic 522 00:29:43,360 --> 00:29:45,800 Speaker 1: it goes out the you know, like when will when 523 00:29:45,800 --> 00:29:49,480 Speaker 1: you talk about playing and being like childlike, sure, the 524 00:29:49,520 --> 00:29:53,239 Speaker 1: difference between childish and taught childlike? Right, Yeah, absolutely, well, 525 00:29:53,280 --> 00:29:55,200 Speaker 1: I mean that's I mean, that's the thing is there's 526 00:29:55,240 --> 00:29:58,479 Speaker 1: also a lot of voice over are a lot of 527 00:29:58,760 --> 00:30:00,520 Speaker 1: on camera actors have it in their head that there's 528 00:30:00,520 --> 00:30:02,960 Speaker 1: a right way and a wrong way to act, which 529 00:30:03,040 --> 00:30:05,600 Speaker 1: is just not accurate. And and there's it's there's much 530 00:30:05,640 --> 00:30:07,680 Speaker 1: more freedom when it's just you in a microphone. People 531 00:30:07,680 --> 00:30:10,520 Speaker 1: think you're actually it's more restrictive, but it's not at all. 532 00:30:10,560 --> 00:30:13,280 Speaker 1: It's exactly the opposite. It is so much more freeing 533 00:30:13,680 --> 00:30:16,160 Speaker 1: because you don't care where you're standing. It's not about 534 00:30:16,160 --> 00:30:18,000 Speaker 1: how you look, it's not about what you're wearing. It's 535 00:30:18,040 --> 00:30:20,800 Speaker 1: about acting. It's you and the microphone and you get 536 00:30:20,800 --> 00:30:26,760 Speaker 1: to play Hi. It's Bethany Frankel. My time on The 537 00:30:26,760 --> 00:30:29,240 Speaker 1: Wheelhousewives of New York is a few years behind me, 538 00:30:29,400 --> 00:30:31,560 Speaker 1: and now I'm ready to put the wheel back into 539 00:30:31,640 --> 00:30:35,440 Speaker 1: the real Housewives. That's where my new podcast Rewives comes in. 540 00:30:35,680 --> 00:30:38,920 Speaker 1: This isn't your typical rewatch podcast. I'm watching only the 541 00:30:38,960 --> 00:30:42,440 Speaker 1: most iconic episodes from all cities. I'm sharing never before 542 00:30:42,520 --> 00:30:45,400 Speaker 1: heard stories of what happened behind the scenes. And I'm 543 00:30:45,440 --> 00:30:49,080 Speaker 1: not just pulling in cast members for postgame analysis. I'm 544 00:30:49,120 --> 00:30:51,360 Speaker 1: doing something a little bit more interesting. If you've ever 545 00:30:51,400 --> 00:30:53,760 Speaker 1: seen an episode of The Wheelhousewives and you know the drill, 546 00:30:53,920 --> 00:30:59,120 Speaker 1: but beyond throwing drinks and legs, there are lessons about marriage, divorce, friendship, money, parenting, 547 00:30:59,280 --> 00:31:02,000 Speaker 1: and fame. If you have the right minds, analyze and 548 00:31:02,040 --> 00:31:05,600 Speaker 1: dig deeper. So I'm bringing on unexpected thought leaders and 549 00:31:05,640 --> 00:31:08,320 Speaker 1: celebrities to get their take on the chaos this season. 550 00:31:08,360 --> 00:31:11,320 Speaker 1: I sit down with Elizabeth Moss, Kevin Neal and Susie Orman, 551 00:31:11,400 --> 00:31:13,960 Speaker 1: Griffin Johnson and more. You think that there isn't much 552 00:31:14,000 --> 00:31:16,880 Speaker 1: to learn from flipping tables and yanking wigs, but that's 553 00:31:16,920 --> 00:31:20,400 Speaker 1: where you're wrong. Listen to Rewives with Bethany Frankel on 554 00:31:20,520 --> 00:31:23,480 Speaker 1: the I Heart Radio app, Apple Podcasts or wherever you 555 00:31:23,480 --> 00:31:32,200 Speaker 1: get your favorite podcasts. A j very quickly, I want 556 00:31:32,240 --> 00:31:35,800 Speaker 1: to talk about the differences between on camera acting and 557 00:31:35,880 --> 00:31:38,440 Speaker 1: voice over acting, because we always ask people which when 558 00:31:38,440 --> 00:31:41,640 Speaker 1: they prefer. Is there one that you prefer to the other? 559 00:31:41,680 --> 00:31:45,560 Speaker 1: If you if you had to pick, mm hmm, you 560 00:31:45,640 --> 00:31:48,760 Speaker 1: know this is gonna be interesting. I actually do prefer 561 00:31:48,920 --> 00:31:53,400 Speaker 1: on screen acting just I think my personality and my outgoingness. 562 00:31:53,480 --> 00:31:55,920 Speaker 1: I believe that's a word. It just I like to 563 00:31:55,920 --> 00:32:00,200 Speaker 1: be moving around and seen on screen. But at the 564 00:32:00,200 --> 00:32:03,560 Speaker 1: same time, voice acting is like creeping its way up 565 00:32:03,560 --> 00:32:06,880 Speaker 1: there on my favorite scale because I just get to 566 00:32:06,920 --> 00:32:10,120 Speaker 1: do so much with just my voice. It is a 567 00:32:10,240 --> 00:32:12,560 Speaker 1: very easy thing to fall in love with, isn't it? Yes? 568 00:32:13,160 --> 00:32:16,520 Speaker 1: So easy? So other than bat wheels, what else can 569 00:32:16,560 --> 00:32:19,560 Speaker 1: we see you in? BT wheels? Just for voiceover or 570 00:32:19,600 --> 00:32:22,200 Speaker 1: just anything? Anything you want? Anything you want your time? 571 00:32:23,280 --> 00:32:27,840 Speaker 1: Um lets, thingless, thingless? Think quick, quick, quick quick? What 572 00:32:27,920 --> 00:32:30,800 Speaker 1: have I done? What have I done? I'm sure on 573 00:32:30,840 --> 00:32:33,040 Speaker 1: YouTube you can look up. I did some City Bank 574 00:32:33,080 --> 00:32:38,600 Speaker 1: commercials when I was like nine Um, I did Ready 575 00:32:38,600 --> 00:32:42,080 Speaker 1: Player one. Actually they took my part out of the movie. 576 00:32:43,480 --> 00:32:46,440 Speaker 1: It happened, but it happened. It was still a great experience. 577 00:32:46,520 --> 00:32:48,320 Speaker 1: You know, I got to meet Mr Spielberg, so that 578 00:32:48,400 --> 00:32:54,080 Speaker 1: was just wow, amazing. And uh, what was your part? 579 00:32:54,200 --> 00:32:55,600 Speaker 1: Now you gotta tell us all because I'm a big 580 00:32:55,600 --> 00:32:57,959 Speaker 1: fan of Ready Player one? What what? But what was 581 00:32:58,040 --> 00:33:00,920 Speaker 1: your your part that they cut out? Um? It was 582 00:33:02,080 --> 00:33:04,160 Speaker 1: me and my friend at the end. We were I 583 00:33:04,160 --> 00:33:06,200 Speaker 1: think we were loading up a game. But I think 584 00:33:06,240 --> 00:33:08,440 Speaker 1: the setting that we were in didn't make sense. To 585 00:33:09,400 --> 00:33:12,160 Speaker 1: what didn't make sense compared to where everything else was. 586 00:33:12,400 --> 00:33:14,160 Speaker 1: Like we had a lot of grass and like there 587 00:33:14,200 --> 00:33:16,480 Speaker 1: was not much grass sing in the movie, so it 588 00:33:16,480 --> 00:33:19,800 Speaker 1: wouldn't have made since you still got to shoot and 589 00:33:19,840 --> 00:33:23,440 Speaker 1: you got to meet Spielberg. Yeah, that was And also 590 00:33:23,480 --> 00:33:27,520 Speaker 1: I did Blackish last year. I did Oh that's fun 591 00:33:28,560 --> 00:33:31,480 Speaker 1: episodic television. You know what I'm gonna tell you, Um 592 00:33:31,520 --> 00:33:35,200 Speaker 1: A j somebody told me something, UM one of the 593 00:33:35,240 --> 00:33:38,120 Speaker 1: beginnings of my career, and I wish I would have listened. 594 00:33:38,720 --> 00:33:42,800 Speaker 1: UM to journal and to try to keep as much 595 00:33:43,360 --> 00:33:48,680 Speaker 1: knowledge of what you're experiencing as possible, um only as 596 00:33:48,880 --> 00:33:52,720 Speaker 1: only just as like some older person wisdom who started 597 00:33:52,760 --> 00:33:56,440 Speaker 1: young and didn't really take into account a lot of that. 598 00:33:56,520 --> 00:33:58,120 Speaker 1: And now I'm trying to remember a lot of like 599 00:33:58,240 --> 00:34:01,480 Speaker 1: facts because I'm working on a memoir and it's hard 600 00:34:01,560 --> 00:34:03,680 Speaker 1: to kind of remember a lot of these things. But 601 00:34:03,800 --> 00:34:06,960 Speaker 1: that's just an aside. And I don't know what I feel. 602 00:34:07,240 --> 00:34:09,400 Speaker 1: I feel like I'm just like I love you and 603 00:34:09,440 --> 00:34:12,279 Speaker 1: I want to hug you and root for you.
