The voice actors

Post by Rave666 »

I was looking at the IMDB entry for VTMB to find out who composed the viscerally haunting atmospheric music (Rik Schaffer), especially the Santa Monica theme, and noticed that none other than Phil LaMarr of Mad TV fame voiced all the black characters! Fat Larry always cracks me up, but sounds nothing like Skelter! Not bad for a hyperactive UPS guy!

I was also tickled to learn that Nika Futterman, the satiny voice behind VV, also voices Asajj Ventress in SW: the Clone Wars.

To me, the music and voice work are what make this dark fantasy so immersing.

Where do we hear Grout? As I recall, we never even meet him or hear him talk.

It's spelled "interesting".

He talks about his introduction to the Kindred community and then we get insight as he falls further into his dementia.

I'm a big fan of good voice work, this game has it in spades...

John Di Maggio and Phil LaMarr can both work on Futurama (Bender and Hermes, respectively. I think you can hear a little of Bender in Jack).

Jim Ward (who also worked on Arcanum and appears on the radio every weekday morning on the [url="http://www.stephaniemiller.com"]Stephanie Miller Show[/url]) and Grey DeLisle (Daphne on Scooby Doo!) have also worked together on The Fairly OddParents.

The list goes on, a lot of really talented and unappreciated voice people who you'd know from a lot of favorite games and TV shows. I encourage you to check out the [url="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0438550/"]VTM:B IMDB page[/url] and click around.

It is weird, every time I hear Jeanette/ Therese I know it sound so so familiar. Now That I looked up Grey DeLisle, I realize that she was all my favorite Char. in all my favorite shows/movies growing up. (Rugrats, little mermaid, KND, Billy and Mandy, Clifford, Fairly Odd Parents etc..)
