I just think I'm not the right audience for it is more the thing because Persona 5 is more, I would say, targeted toward a more general audience, I would say. I get that.
But I think metaphor is great.
So here's the thing. I'm a workaholic. And for me, if I don't schedule in some kind of productive gaming, like streaming on Twitch, I just won't do it. Cause I'll just work. Um, I'll just do like, Oh, I have voice acting or I have a day job too. So I'll just do other stuff. And I'm like, no, I'm scheduling in my fun. I know that sounds so lame to have to schedule in your fun, but I do.
And I, I am very extroverted. And so I find it so fun to talk to people who come and chat and, um, I like entertaining people. I mean, I'm an actor. Right. So it's like I think I think streaming is like not too far off because it's still that entertainment aspect. But it's still I get to experience these stories and these games that I'm picking.
And I have an excuse to do it because I feel productive. It's it's the millennial in me, man. I got everything has to be productive. Yeah.
Amnesia.
Every time anyone brings it up.
I validated you.
Yeah, it's, I mean, I just think that it's the perfect example of how to make a perfect horror game because it has everything in it. And I just, I mean, I'm not good at puzzles, so I needed help when I was playing that. And that was before I was like Googling everything. So I was in college and my boyfriend at the time, he was playing it because he was good at puzzles.
And I was like, okay, you're going to play it, but I'm going to be here because he doesn't like horror. And I was like, all right, let's like do this. And so it was just a team effort to finish that game because... Oh, that's it's rough. But it's Oh my god, it's so good. And everybody should play it if they haven't. I highly recommend it.
Yeah, the gore is like whatever. I feel like as a society, because we're so we're always on information overload and we see all these graphic images in our daily lives, it doesn't really hit the same as like you're not usually in a psychological horror state. You know what I mean? So that's what gets me to an amnesia has so much of that. Like you literally have a sanity state.
Um, well, I guess before standing out comes training. Cause you don't want to stand out for the wrong reasons, right? If you haven't trained, it's like, oh, they should go take a class probably. So I'd say take classes first is always the first step. Um, get coached by people you admire. Always vet your coaches though.
Cause there are some people who just want to get your money like in any industry, you know?
So always make sure you're working with someone reputable. But I would say doing that, honing your skills and also getting practice with auditions because auditioning is most of the job of a voice actor. I audition way more than I book. And that's the case for all of us. So I get to voice these cool characters. Right.
But most of the time I'm just like in my booth saying something about some kind of corporate thing. training or something like not the exciting stuff. Right. So, yeah, it's I always vouch for training first. And then once you have that experience of learning and you feel more comfortable, then you can start putting your work out there, like posting samples of your work.
Getting a demo reel is a big step once you're ready for that, because that's what you send off to agents and people that you market to, like ad agencies, production companies, et cetera, et cetera. So it's really just honing your skills. If you like social media, do that. That's what I do. I've fallen off a little bit because, oh, my gosh, social media has become a nightmare.
Um, yeah, it's, it's a very competitive field. I think like any creative field. Um, but I, I will say, I think overall the community is pretty nice. They're pretty, uh, they cheer each other on. I do think there's some of that fake niceness. That's always the case with social media, right? You can't just be like, I can't believe that you got this and not me. Cause then you look like that. Sorry.
You look like the jerk, right?
Um, So you have to be mindful of your appearance online too. But I think for me, I genuinely get a lot out of cheering other people on because I have the mindset that the roles that are meant for me are going to come to me. If they're not meant for me, my friend's going to get them. You know what I mean? So it's about the mindset that you have. I do think it's hard.
I do want to say jealousy is a normal human emotion. I don't think we should demonize it.
