Fans love actor Brett Weaver's uninhibited performance as Carrot Glace in Sorcerer Hunters.
What kind of person would Weaver use as his inspiration for the lecherous
anti-hero. Jerry Lewis, Weaver told fans at an Anime Central panel. What?
Somehow, Weaver saw that Carrot's way of dealing with people was like the
characters Lewis played in his 1960's comedies, and based his voicing of
Carrot on those performances. Weaver explained his performance of Nabeshin
in Excel Saga as being "a white Shaft," and added that he got to use
his "gay voice" in that series' bowling alley episode. "My girlfriend said
`Never do that again,'" Weaver admitted.
Richard Cox, the boy-type Ranma from Ranma 1/2, was asked about the differences in stage acting and anime dubbing. There are differences between working in an in an ensemble and performing alone in a booth,
he answered. The big differences are in the possibilities of performing with
your body and just with your voice. "As an actor you're working within certain
variables," said Cox. "You can't do Matrix-like jumps on stage. In
terms of what's more fulfilling; in an anime you can be what you want to
be. I got into it because I love acting.
Laura Bailey, the outrageous Young Trunks in Dragon Ball Z and the unusual Tohru Honda in Fruits Basket,
said she doesn't like working in commercials because it's "so impersonal.
When you're doing a film you get to know the crew. On a commercial they don't
know you.".
Chris Patton, Kamina Ayato in Rahxephon, said he likes anime dubbing
better than stage acting, but notes that in a stage play, he gets to know
the end of the story. Still in production for Rahxephon, Patton
said he hasn't been able to get ADV Films' producers to tell him how the
story ends, even though he has the lead role. Nearby, Tiffany Grant spoke
in the voices of Sandora from Excel Saga and Dug Fin from Dragon Half - and thereby revealed how those characters are more alike than anyone realized.
