Today we have an interview with Tony Oliver that we recorded at Colorado Anime Fest with Kaiju No Kami. We talked with Tony about working on Scott Pilgrim Takes Off, Power Ranges, and JoJo's Bizzare Adventure. Towards the end of the interview we talk about personal and professional legacy, and what helps make a great production.
This week, we have a recording of the Somewhere Under the Rainbow: LGBTQIA+ and Voice Acting panel hosted by Ciaran Strange. When the recording starts, the panelists were talking about how things have changed, but how far things still have to go. Then, the panel and audience shared recommendations of anime and manga that include good examples of representation, such as Bloom into You and Stripping the Flesh. Lastly, they talked about working in the voice-over industry as a queer person, which included some frank discussion about whether its better to get gender affirming care prior to trying to start a career. They also talked about other aspects of that diversity in voice-over that could be improved, such as disability and age.
Today, we have a recording of Bridgette Hoffman's "Back in the Day Panel", where she talked about the early days of anime dubbing in the US, working in ADR, and how technology and social change have affected voice-over work. We recorded this panel at Colorado Anime Fest 2024.
Today, we have an interview that we recorded with Bridgette Hoffman, along with Edit49er and Con of Tap'n no Cap'n. We talked about her career, her work ethic, and acting both in front of the mic and in front of the screen. She had some interesting insights about working to help overcome social akwardness and working when you have the opportunity to do so.
