Overview

More Silly SyllablesYou might think that voicing animated characters is a pretty easy gig: go into the studio, affect a goofy voice, spout some silly syllables, and cash your check. But that's not all, folks. In their own words, and their own voices, the leaders in this field lay bare this anything-but-funny business. Bob Miller's new series, The Animated Voice is both a primer for aspiring animated voice actors and a fascinating behind-the-scenes glimpse into this little-known industry for fans. In this volume: MEL BLANC discusses his start in animation, his earliest cartoons, the one time he worked for Walt Disney, and other milestones in the career of The Man of a Thousand Voices. JUNE FORAY discusses her many voices, from Witch Hazel and Rocket J. Squirrel, to Spider-Man's Aunt May, Cindy Lou Who, and Talky Tina, the eerie doll from The Twilight Zone, as well as how she became The First Lady of Animation. A DRAGON BALL Z symposium featuring many of the leading voice actors from that series, including Vic Mignogna, Sean Schemmel, Christopher R. Sabat, Sonny Strait, Monica Rial, and others. Plus: Carlos Saldanha, Mamoru Hosoda, Lucille Bliss, Jeff Bergman, and Mari Iijima, with rare photos and commentary, and an extensive foreword by Kathleen Helppie-Shipley!
