And there are a few regional Texas accents that you have to have an ear for.<br /><br />My next project, I have a young girl who lives in West Texas. I can't read an excerpt of hers without laying it on thick. West TX is its own beast. I didn't even know I could do that. HA! You can take the girl out of Texas, but you can't...yadda, yadda.Jordan Danehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03350761658156085280noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7817438941023006688.post-34903680674300498192013-02-22T09:32:15.021-06:002013-02-22T09:32:15.021-06:00Definitely a challenge.

I had an opportunity to chat about the characters and LOVED what they each brought to the project. They honestly surprised me in a good way. And they reminded why I love audio books. They both nailed it.<br /><br />But I do understand what you mean about certain passages sounding weird. It's made me more aware of my internal narratives.<br /><br />The other thing that can be a challenge for a voice actor is doing mutiple voices in different genders and accents. My hat is off to anyone who can do that well.<br /><br />Congrats, girl.Jordan Danehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03350761658156085280noreply@blogger.com
