I believe I went through my entire range of non-cartoony female voices today. I\u2019ve already gone through every single thinking-to-himself voice for Harry, and I had to bring in Brian Jones (Severus) to help me out with Ravenclaw Two. I can only say thank you again to those who volunteer their voices to help. :)<\/p>\n
Brian has an amazing radio voice, which I hadn\u2019t heard before due to the inflection he uses when he plays Snape. The richness of it really blew me away. I mean, he has a strong voice IRL, but people sound different when they\u2019re talking casually compared to when they\u2019re intoning. I\u2019ve been told myself a number of times that people are surprised when they hear me on the podcast, and ask if I do post-production on my voice. I don\u2019t, you just fall into a different cadence when you\u2019re performing. As my friend Jon says – it\u2019s natural, it\u2019s just the \u201cDramatic Chipmunk<\/a>\u201d version which doesn\u2019t get used in ordinary life. It\u2019s the main reason I actually record a fresh intro every week (as opposed to pasting in a stock intro, like I do with the majority of the outro). Saying those twenty-six words injects me smoothly into narration mode, it\u2019s almost like flipping a switch. Brian just slips into his with a few seconds of preparation. I’m glad to have him on board!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I believe I went through my entire range of non-cartoony female voices today.
