So looking for new new voice parts to audition for has kind of been put on the backburner. What have I been doing otherwise, you ask? Preparing for college, and taking my last chance to laze about for days on end for probably nine months or so.

Through the marathon of videogames and hanging out with friends, though, I have been keeping up with voice parts that I've gotten already. The most recent project I've finished my lines for is Tales from the Void, by Zach Hinchy.

Tales from the Void is an animated series which follows nine characters (in every sense of the word) who are the sole inhabitants of this infinite plain of existance. This place just happens to have all sorts of objects, like video cameras, and buildings. The inhabitants don't really notice how strange this is, and just go about their every day life running around causing mischief.

It's going to air on public access television near where Zach lives. I'm not entirely sure if it will be hosted anywhere on the web, but here's hoping. This sounds like a really fun project.

I play Ol, who is the president of the place all the characters live (which is called, by the way "Americanadia"), but he doesn't really do much "official" stuff. You can see a picture of him here.

He's an interesting character for me. His voice is the first voice I've ever done that was uncomfortable for me. I've done voices that hurt to do, and voices that were tiring, but none that were uncomfortable. I don't know what it is. Ol had a voice actor before me, and I had to try to match the old voice actor as best as I could. But I do impressions all the time, so that can't be the reason. I can't quite put my finger on it. After doing all the lines for the first episode, though, I'm quite a bit more comfortable with the voice.

I look forward to seeing what this project will evolve into as new episodes are added. Should be pretty awesome.

To read a bit more about the characters, and learn about the series in general, head to talesfromthevoid.com (where you can even hear the extended mix of the theme song). There's a countdown to the episode's air date on the website too (also my name is on it if you click on Ol, which is amazing).

So keep your eye on this. It should be rad.
