This interview contains so interesting and AWESOME news.
Copied and pasted from Pokemon Palace Network:
Hey peeps. I got the chance to go to the Collectormania Expo at the Manchester Gmex ( collectormaniagmex.co.uk )here in the UK Today and got the chance to meet Veronica taylor and had a good talk with her about the anime etc and got some interesting tidbits.
Having got back from the expo and having talked to Veronica myself for 20 mins (she was really talkative/friendly/really approachable) I bring little tidbits of information.
- Information Learned -
She really enjoys doing May's voice as it's really hyperactive!
She has only just finished dubbing the 8th movie a few weeks ago.
and has informed me from what she's been told, that there will be at least 10 movies alltogether.
It also appears from what she told me that Pokémon USA are possibly going to using different actors that can mimic Veronica and the rest of the cast, thus replacing the ENTIRE cast for the 9th Season as she is unsure of what is happening between 4Kids/Pokémon USA and wether she will be dubbing it or not as she personally feels attached to doing Ash's voice after doing it for so long.
Pokémon 10th Anniversary ANIME News!
I was also informed by her that there will be a specially made episode celebrating 10 years of Pokémon in April that she will be dubbing shortly. (No other details are known on this other than it being a special ep)
Random Other Information / QandA
This was during a Q&A session with Sean Schemmel (Goku DBZ, Also Robert and Juan from Pokémon!) and Veronica Taylor..
These are the questions asked to her. (in no particular order!)
Q. Is this your first time in the UK
A. the Uk no, but it's my first time to Manchester.
Q. Who would you have loved to voice from your childhood
A. Trixie from Speed Racer
Q. How did you get into doing Anime Voiceovers/Into Voicing Ash
A. When i moved to New York i met various people whilst doing theatrical work as I trained to be an actor all my life, And also studied voice acting before being offered the part on Pokémon which also helped me to be offered parts for other Anime show's
Q. What's Your Favourite voice or Phrase that you enjoy saying in the show?
A. I think my favourite saying has to be "Pikachu Buddy, are you ok?" *note: this was done in Ash's voice
Q. Does doing voices like Ash's take a strain on your voice?
A. I find Ash non vocally phonetic. so no i don't find it a strain on my voice.
Q. How long does it take you to dub an episode
A. Do you mean me or an episode as a whole?, *She gave both anyway* I go into the studio between 1 and 6 hours a week and record all the dialouge for the characters I play in 1 session, so i will go and do all of Ash's lines first and then do all of May's, As far as dubbing goes we do about 1 episode a week.
Q. How did you get to be the voice of Ash?
A. I happened to see my acting coach and he recommended I apply for the casting call for it after seeing an open cast call for a new cartoon show, and thats basically how i got the job.
Q. do you like to watch any cartoons/the anime you dub.
A. I Don't mind watching the show as i don't actually know what happens until i see it on tv as i'm not given any advanced plots or anything as i just go in and read out my dialouge.
Q. Have you ever done any voice acting for Video games?
A. I'ts not something i've really done much of, but i have done a bit of voice acting for video games, It's weird actually having to record the lines without seeing the characters but is good when they put all the bits together.
Q. Do you enjoy/admire other voice actors work?
A. I don't really envy any other VA's and actually like those that can sink their selfs into a voice.
During this session Sean Schemmel actually said Veronica is probably the best flap master when it comes to getting the lip sync perfect.
Following the last question that was asked the talk came to an end and she thanked people for coming..
But yes in all it was a good day and well worth going just to see her alone (there were other cool people i saw there too!) and came away with 2 signed autographs and a photo of her.
Remember you heard the info above here first! (If anyone use's this elsewhere please credit PiPikachu for it.)
Thanks
