What Sound Could Be Sweeter? (Character Voices)

[lykaios]

I often here people talking about what their characters would look like if they were human, but I rarely see people talking about how their characters sound. So, I began to wonder, for me I hear character's voices when I write them, and I have the voices of other people's characters in my head. Of course, my interpretation is obviously going to be skewed since it's my own interpretation. Anyway, the point of this is to find a clip of someone talking whose voice reminds you of your character. Please, don't overload on clips per post, and if you feel your character's voice is easier for you to describe than find, feel free to describe. Hell, you can do both.

Essentially, it's just like casting a voice actor for your character.

I'll start.

LESKA: Tom Noonan

The one in the fez.

ERITOHVE: Olan Rogers

Add a bit more drawl to it, and they have pretty similar voices in my mind.

ASTERIX: Dom Fera


So yeah, that's the gist of it, and I'm certain I'll want to use other voices later, but I like these ones now.

I don't have a utube, but everytime I talk as Old D I hear James Earl Jones in my head.

XD The only one I have to think about is Delphine, but I'd imagine she'd sound like Eva Gabor, who played Duchess in The Aristocats.


Annabella sounds like Kelly Macdonald, who played Merida in Brave. Shawn sounds like Jensen Ackles when he's not trying to be Dean; his voice is so much lighter. CJ sounds like a deeper P!nk, only because she constantly coughs because she smokes. Very scratchy, and almost jazzy. Tony sounds like.....a deeper Timothy Olyphant.

Those are all my kids...well....not all of them, but if I did all of them, we'd be here all night. XD
