Andromeda was supposed to be my "break". My "welcome to the big leagues."
It shut down the studio. 🤷♀️
Anyway, so yeah - all the roles matter.
Of all I've done, the one that made a kid's eyes go wide w/ amazement was me doing Octodad for him in line at Disney Land. ❤️
See too many peeps with big heads. "Oh, you're not a lead in something, so you're not worth talking to."

Here’s the thing: if this is “ethically” used, I should get the same amount of $ as if I’d been in the booth.
*but that isn’t the point!*
The point is to *eliminate* the actor and pay as little as possible.
So I don’t know how any of this works to the performer’s favor EVER.
Fucking...who?! Did any of y'all approve this? I didn't get told we were voting on this.
SAG leadership, please, I'm begging you, stop showing your ass and do something to keep us working. Ya know? Your job? You ain't licensors, you are a labor union! The hell y'all doing!?

Audiobooks are also bread & butter for a lot of people. I know voice actors who just do audiobooks, I know Actors like me who use it as a kind of day job. It’s also one of the few forms of voice acting, unless you are one of a Very Few rock stars, that has any kind of consistency
This comes days after a big AI audiobook announcement from Apple, part of a trend (which Google is also part of) that voice actors immediately noted was a risk to both their own stability and to the field in whole, as audiobooks serve as a good place for junior talent to break in

And I’ll say,
