bit games gone obviously push sell video
Everything about video games has changed. The writing, the acting, the visuals, obviously - everything has gone to a new level. And the difference that I see as an actor is that I don't have to push that extra bit to sell what's going on.
ad
In the 'Mass Effect' universe, there is zero ad libbing.
directly intention
I like it when I can hear directly from the writer: what they're seeing, what they're envisioning, and what their intention is.
fan playing spend suck time watching
I don't spend a lot of time watching my performances after the fact. I suck at playing video games, but I'm a fan of the creativity, the brilliance, and the possibility of the industry.
experience
I had, probably, a more challenging experience growing up than most middle-class chicks.
cartoon countless people screw tweak work
There's more flexibility in the cartoon world than there is in video games. In video games, if I tweak a line, I could screw up the work of countless other people with my whim.
course
Being able to stay with a character over the course of years is a gift.

I assume the body language no matter what in doing voiceover. There is a transformative aspect.

Endings are really hard to do, and it's hard to do an ending where it's sort of collaborative with thousands and thousands of people, and to satisfy all those people is impossible.
