I was wondering, would yourecommend aspiring actors to try to start in videogames or to focus on movies? Is it so different that acting in a videogame would not give you contacts in the movie industry? Why no more actors start in videogames? why would you

I was wondering, new stars that had become famous in the last years, and talk about how hard it was, i feel like, since they really had talent, they could have also worked in videogames, before movies. Because i assume there are more actors going for movies...

Thoughts? People who aren’t voice actors getting cast

Personally, as a voice actor myself I can’t help but feel bitter about it. It doesn’t matter if they did well, for fun, or if it’s a small role. That credit or establishing a relationship with the client/studio can mean so much to someone who actually...
