Voice Acting without acting?

technically you need to become an actor(or somebody famous first) nowadays considering the one who do the animes are regular actors first and now those acting agents don't want some no-name unheard of actor. they usually want someone who is already an actor to be a voice over thing. And there is no way to get into voice acting without regular acting sorry, why because the acting or the directors/producers wants the movie to get good ratings and they already have a name of themselves, take the brady bunch they made a cartoon version "the brady kids" and will smith in shark tale, and other similar areas like that. That want you to be famous first and already have a name for yourself worldwide before you can become a voice actor, take Robin Williams(R.I.P.), he was a comedian(known nationwide) first before he became an actor, and his first acting appearance was on the tv series Mork & Mindy(1978-1982). and watch mork and mindy and you will see what i mean yes those acting classes can help but only for theatre(broadway play) acting only. not voice-over, or anything of that sort.

How To Voice Act

Voice acting is acting and the successful voice actor are actors period. You aren't going to get very far without actor training and you might as well learn now that random people telling you that you have a good voice, or a great look means exactly nothing. This is a business. The successful have put their time in and worked at it.

Almost all voice-work goes to fully-trained and very experienced actors - they do the occasional bit of voice-acting just to earn a little extra money in between ordinary acting roles.

I mean - think about it. You have a role to fill in a cartoon or commercial or whatever - who do you choose to audition - a kid with no experience or a professional actor with a fantastic résumé showing years at drama school and loads of stage and film experience?

I don't understand the question, sorry. It seems like you're saying "I want to own my own business, but I don't want to be a businessman." It makes no sense, unless you're saying you want to do voice acting as a hobby and not as a career - is that it?

If that's it then understand that companies hire actors to do voice acting and dubbing. It's a business and they're not interested in helping kids (or adults) with a hobby. That type of voice acting involves casting directors, agents, contracts, unions and the like. To get professional work like that you have to be an ACTOR. So you're not going to get jobs voice acting for most of the type of shows you see without being one.

To keep it as a hobby you can find and work on amateurs projects - things kids (and adults) like you create on their own for fun. So like I suggested before, you can get your own sound editing software and start to experiment with it and do some projects on your own.

Maybe join some discussion groups for anime and see if people are doing their own projects and want voice actors. Be smart when you do that! Don't give out your personal information or things like that - talk to your parents. You may have to research a bit to see how that's done.

You can volunteer to do audio books. It's not anime, but it's a type of voice acting. There's a big project LibriVOX that looks for volunteers - https://librivox.org/pages/volunteer-for-librivox/ . Don't know if that will work for you, but you could check into it and see if there are any other options locally.

There's a website for voice actors - most will be real "actors" with voice acting as a career - but they may have some good articles about the type of equipment you could look into getting for yourself and things like that. You could check that out - https://www.voiceoverxtra.com/

And again- do be careful on the Internet and use good sense and make sure you talk to your parents about what you're trying to do.

The most detailed method for starting in voiceover is Mark's Voice Plan (you can google it). That's how I got started
