Whitescarves Team-Up! #5 - Matt Wardle, Part 1

(With regards to changing ones voice enough to dissapear into roles) "When someone says 'I had no idea that was you', that's about the best thing I think anybody can give me as praise... and honestly, that's just about made my day!!!! - Matt

It's time for one of the most animated members of New Century's cast to come to the mike. Matt Wardle talks about how he came to work with Alex, how his real life experience with caretaking for a disabled partner plays into some of his voice work, and his love of playing villains.

There is a lot of frank discussion on real world stuff like living with disability, living life with high empathy and expression of feelings. But with all of the serious heartfelt stuff some a lot of fun digression. We learn more about what went into the acting out of Jeremy Pines, Oberon the Akka, Krieger, and one of our favorite people to hate on so far in New Century, Mayor Caleb Buck. We discuss the tribulations of accents in voice acting, as well as sublimating our own natural tendencies in order to fit or even dissapear into a character.

Also Matt may have ESP? Because he keeps on anticipating what we are going to ask next without having a copy of our interview outline...
