I'm so proud of myself. I've really gotten back into voice acting this week. I'm going to really try and regularly audition and voice things again. It's so much fun! Sent like 3 or 4 auditions tonight, and even a live action one that required video. Plus I sent some lines for one that I was cast in. Yay for not taking forever! Same week as being cast is like a new record for me...
Are they real? And do they feel? Is all the pain... just inside my head?

Hm... I've been thinking... just how different would the reactions to works be if the characters involved swapped genders, but kept the same exact plot?

Didn't realise how many meet ups are to be had on my watch tomorrow, thanks to the addition of the boy from Gifts for the Geek who flew up from my hometown.
I'd go with Vale Tudo (Anything Goes School of Martial Arts?... lol, if I remember correctly, that's roughly what Vale Tudo translates to), but there are plenty of MA's out there that specialize on "really" close quarters.

We're talking, more or less "I can take you in an enclosed space" type of martial art. Hence the elevator remark.
What? I can't hear you! I have a Banana in my ear!

It's a short film called "The Bridge". Or, "Most", which is Czech for "Bridge". I'm assuming no one here will watch it, so here's the rundown.
This here's a SPOILER.
Dad is a struggling bridge operator, living in an extremely small apartment. Also a single father. Loves his kid, kid loves him. Kid begs to go to work with him, Dad lets him. They bring Hot Chocolate and stuff. Dad leaves kid alone to lift bridge, but train comes earlier than scheduled. Train operator is too stupid to see. Dad doesn't notice, kid tries to warn him, but Dad fails to hear him. Kid runs to switch on the tracks to drop bridge manually. Boy fails to pull switch and accidentally falls in, stuck in the gears. Dad notices kid fall in and starts screaming like a madman. Drop bridge and kill kid, or leave up and kill passengers of train. Struggles to decide, then pulls lever to drop bridge. Runs out of booth and starts freaking out. No one in the the train, save for one drug addict about to shoot up, sees man crying. The two meet eyes for a brief second. She drops heated spoon. Dad picks up his sons body and cradles it. Years later, man is seen walking, alone. Sees woman with a baby; recognizes her as the drug addict in train. Woman recognizes him as train operator. They smile at each other, saying nothing. The man comes to terms with what he's lost.
