Are you here because of DnD? or perhaps you are one of many people who would like to work as voiceover artists but will probably never get the opportunity. Despite it being an oversaturated industry already, it's also full of extremely talented and dynamic speakers which makes the competition fiercely high when trying to get into this field.
That said, most people are only able to speak in their own voice, accent and language. Very few can make careers using multiple voices...but the ones that do make an absolute killing.

This is why it's really worth investing the time into learning how to nurture this skill properly so that you can stand out and create dynamic, eclectic but most importantly believable characters.

This video aims to help you achieve this by offering a checklist of characteristics to think about when developing your character's voice.

After trying out the 699840 voices, I can confirm that 102387 was by far my favourite

As a dungeon master, this simplifies keeping track of npc voices in my notes, ALOT! It gets hard keeping track of 50+ voices and the personalities that go with them. Being able to define a voice with a few keywords is astonishing!

"you can do 100 distinct voices" Me, a DM: YEEEESSSSS WITH THIS POWER I WILL ENDLESSLY ENTERTAIN MY PARTY

So basically: systematically compartmentalize different qualities a performance can contain, then mix and match. Neato!

Ex-podcaster here who used to specialise in doing audio drama. Absolutely loves your guide to playing multiple voices. Finding enough volunteer voice actors can sometimes be difficult and I have always been in awe of those who can singlehandedly do voice mimicry or perform with multiple original characters. I will be sure to pass this guide on to others.

when people say a hundred they usually mean about 95 to 105 but when this man says a hundred he means infinity

As a GM for table top games this is so incredibly helpful for unique npc voices and makes it easier to write notes for their voices as well
