Noir, you should probably edit the newer interviews into the first post just in case people come and see the topic who never. Would be hard to navigate through lol
I know I'm sooo sorry for getting your project confused - that does not take away from its awesome! I swears!
Lolz, it's cool. Actually my bad, I thought it was iamnoir who said it. I listened to it again and I was like "oh...oops" haha. What can I say I was really freaking tired so yeah haha.
Still a highly amusing interview.

This looks like a job for... some other superhero. But since I'm the only one here I guess I'll do!

so who's next.
Just an interviewing tip from a journalistic student friend of mine who listened to it, so don't shoot the messenger, I essentially just copied and pasted it from an MSN conversation:
"Yeah it was good, but it went way off the point a bit much to avoid too much sidetracking and a more informative interview... he should research the person more and then ask questions that lead the interviewee to divulge the information by themselves."
I was like... um thanks for telling me that haha
So there ya go constructive criticism that I wouldn't have been able to give

well, a list would be great....if i knew who i wanted to do next. I have to think about it first.
@shard-spider: Thanks your friend for the advice would you. Its kinda hard to research people on here without having to go through their posts....which kinda feels like digging through garbage

Yeah, we totally went way off track lol. I'd just recommend more specific questions like the person's goals as a voice actor (even online), the first project, the best project, what are they known for, vocal warm up techniques, background, any acting background and such, ya know.

You could always prepare them by sending some questions ahead of time. That'll not only help keep things on topic, but also make it quicker, too. THEEEEENNN we can see who the better actors are, which ones can make a prepared answer sound spontaneous. Dun, dun, duuuuuuuuuuuhhhhhhn! (<--dramatic reverb)

Ooh good point. But a good way of doing some research on their background is if they have a resumé like me, you can see what projects they have done, when their first project was released, who they've worked with etc.
and also in my case I actually have a biography on mine haha
and of course not to forget the regular questions of where your from, what got you into VAing, do ya wanna go pro, how'd you find the VAC, what colour underwear are you wearing, what voices do you love doing that sort of thing. Also if you prepare with the person maybe they can give you some questions they'd like to be asked too.
Also some improv is great too
@noir: No probs I'll say it to him.
