*the mini series will be up soon, so stayed tuned

 

I agree with what Llave aka Mako is saying about the awkward silences, I wasn't really bothered by the Username thing but I guess it would be great to have for Mr. Corazza as it gives him the impression that there is a whole community of fans awaiting his answers. Though the interview itself was pretty great, Vincent Corazza is an excellent interviewee. I like that he actually went into detail about his answers.

Anyways I'm glad you asked my question if he auditioned. I was beginning to wonder if the production people for Kingdom Hearts actually had people audition for roles since the ones I've heard about (mainly the main characters and Disney folks) were approached because of some other role they did or they were reprising their roles. I also liked his answer for the tips for people who want to voice act. Too many times I hear the same responses, but Mr. Corazza gave it a new perspective I hadn't heard about.

Overall it was a pretty solid interview. "Lolz so kool gaiz omg <3 it!~" xD

 

I haven't heard the podcast yet, but I will in a wee bit.
However, some things I have to address in the posts.

An interview is more than question after question, and to address which member asked it? That's just unecessary. It's a waste of time. It doesn't matter who asked the question as long as it gets answered, right? If the idea is that you want the "famous guy" to know your nickname, it doesn't matter. If it's to feel included... well, you already know that the questions have been submitted.
Also, even if the staff were to ask only their own questions, that's completely okay. The members are priviledged to even have the option to ask questions. Silly questions may be a good thing, occasionally, but not always. I think the majority of people interested in asking questions to a voiceactor want actual answers and questions.

Less special or not, dosen't matter. Questions were asked and questions were answered. The podcast is by staff for the community. The fact that the community has the chance to ask questions. The podcast is not our voice at all. It's the voice of the staff given to us in the form of a podcast. The podcast overall is a favor by Sabby. It takes a lot of time and a fair amount of work to produce a podcast, especially if you have a "celebrity" on it. I've produced a few podcasts myself, and it takes a fair amount of planning alone.

But yeah. I know it's only your personal opinion, but I figured that I should get some things straight, from another, though perhaps a bit of a protective side.

Maybe my opinion will change after hearing it, but as it is right now, from another perspective, that's how I see it.

/endrant. (I still love you, bro <3)

 

Thank you for letting me know your feed back. I do appreciate it. However, some questions were not asked because they were mostly KH related questions, I should have mentioned that we asked Vincent if he knew any info about Kingdom Hearts and he said he knew what his character was and that was pretty much it. (If you don't believe me then I can provide the audio clip where he says that) It was a different pace in a direction of interviewing this time than the Phil Synder interview. There were awkward silences because in all honest truth we were all nervous, we're not perfect nor are we professional journalists.

I'm sorry you were disappointed in this episode, though i still believe it is a good stepping stone for the podcast as a whole to being able to talk with voice actors.

 

I would like to emphasize that the vast majority of the questions which were asked on the podcast were from the community. I could write up a list, but that would require hearing my own voice xD.

Sabby and I drew up a list of all the questions prior to the podcast and set things up so that, if he knew things about the series, we would ask him more KH based questions, and if not we'd ask more KH-type ones.

The reason we didn't read out people's names? I'm not totally sure, though I think it would've been a bit cluttered had we done so.

 

You know, contrary to popular belief, I like how informal this whole thing was (Have you heard them accents from Hallifax, eh? Go Maple Leafs!). He seemed to be having a lot of fun when he insulted Americans and such. Though you could've said who asked each question, I'm not holding it against you guys. This was a great podcast and it was almost like you guys were just having a casual conversation as friends~

 

My god that man can talk.

BUt I really like him now, he has such a great work ethic and view on life that most people, let alone actors, get a grip of. Which was amazing to hear.

Though I would say my gripe was the lack of conversation between KHV and Vincent. I mean, he was basically taking a lecture, or a workshop on his life and voice acting. Which whilst interesting, I lost interest mid flow of his soliloquies. I was hoping for more banter or more conversation, like maybe interviews I've seen broadcasters do. But I accept that you guys aren't professionals at all, so no worries.

Really wish I could've been a part of the interview though, I wish I could've talked to him about things.

 

Ah~ poor Vincent, it almost felt like he was trying to cut the akwardness with his humor. <:'3
He's a cool guy, I can't believe he has unopened copies of Re:CoM! O_O Dude....he could sign and sell those and at least keep one copy. xD

 

Really cool to have the contributions of an actual voice-actor from the Kingdom Hearts series, but as I expected, he hasn't played the series, nor hold much knowledge of it. I totally understand though: its that way for a lot of voice-actors actually. But I was impressed and joyed from his impression of his own character. lol, a "sh!t stirrer" is a neat way to put Zexion.

I think my favorite part of the interview was his response to influences on his career, what with his acknowledgements of Casey Kasem and Frank Welker. Loved the Shaggy impersonation.
