Ok so this is an example of stuff related to real world voice stuff where I feel like voice actors have a secret Like completely leaving gender aside, Troy Baker doesn't sound like ANY character he has played when speaking just as himself.https://youtu.be/MFLtbCf4L60

So the part that's I guess a philosophical question is, I assume Baker considers how he sounds on a podcast to be more "him" than the manly-men he universally gets cast as. Did he create the voice he uses for his podcast too, or is that just completely unmodulated

Because like, I have a "character" in my head reflecting my internal monologue, dating to at least when I learned to read. I'd like to learn to talk like my internal monologue. And it involves certain things I just don't know how to do right, like dry sarcasm w/o vocal cracking

One of the "magic tricks" of voice acting is that it is to a big degree just acting The whole thing where you can "hear a smile" in someone's voice Like you *can* fake that and talk in a "smiling voice" without smiling with your face but it's hard

If you watch video of VAs in the booth they do act with their whole face and body as much as they're able, when you get mad you let your face frown and your body tense and your fists ball up It's all part of making it as "real" as possible without conscious effort
