Topic: The Chit-Chat Thread

@Owl1 what do you mean, an African or European swallow?

@Sunsy yeah, people will try to be more rude as if it was a way to force their argument into being correct. I should have left earlier. Sometimes people will start smearing you and the urge to fight back is holding you in the discussion, even though you will get nothing out of it. But as everywhere, backing out is the best way of dealing with it. Works especially well on the internet where nobody can follow you.

That's why I stopped interacting with people on the internet and irl for a longer while. But I'm happy I found this forum

@ComfyAko

@Owl1 Kermit, I was at a store a few weeks ago, and I kid you not over the speakers they started playing Fireflies.

Guys, I was in the run for the Mario Movie. But, something happened

The Pirates! was my first ever animated film. But I got that role through a contest. Tv filmed it at the time and the director (a woman) told enthusiastically "David has a lot of talent! Really really nice!" She said me to do series, and I tried to ask her afterwords about some information. I never really got a clear answer. 7 years after the first movie , I got a call for another faith based studio to do another animation. They were quite happy with me. After a few years another followed, about the true story of "John Newton" (about the stopping slavery.) - Last year, I did a voiceover course with a famous dutchvoiceactor and coach who is now in Los Angeles (online), the coach knew the voice director and called her for advice. The lady in question said to the voice coach; "You shouldn't deal with him, that's a stalker!!" . - just to be clear I haven't seen, heard, spoken to her in 10 years.

They said to me that there wasn't the "right role". Ok, well, that's fine with me. Even though they didn't knew me that well...

A few days ago I heard a fellow voice actor had to "turn down" the voice of a toad character because he was busy.

But today I saw who directed the Dutch Movie. That same woman who directed the first one that I did, and called me the stalker.

• Does this mean that I never do animation again? no, in fact, I have been asked for another animated series. But still. I am trying to learn lessons from life.

@EllaTheKawaiiNeko lol

@reporterdavid maybe you'll be able to do a voice in the sequel. Your story is quite interesting.

@Owl1 On the subject of Fireflies, that's one of the songs we play at our craft fairs.
@EllaTheKawaiiNeko Yeah, huskies are cute, basically any seriously fluffy dog is great in my opinion.

@TeaCatherine that's awesome!

@Owl1 It's one of the only decent songs on the CDs we use, most of it is annoying mainstream music from late last decade.

@TeaCatherine what kind of CDs are they, top 10 best hits of 2011?

@Owl1 They're Now CDs and I believe the one I'm talking about is from 2019, some of them have better music on due to not only covering the 21st century ones, but the one with Fireflies on has like 3 discs and only about 5 decent songs on.

@TeaCatherine... Why not just use Spotify... Then you can make a playlist with only good songs...

@Owl1 I think my parents have discussed doing that before but sometimes the WIFI's not so good.

@TeaCatherine Hmm, I guess the only solution is Vinyl then lol.

@Owl1 What, why?

@TeaCatherine idk, vinyl is cool. I think you can download music on Spotify btw or use it in offline mode.

@Owl1 Yeah, but then we'd have to set up speakers and stuff and it doesn't really matter 'cause it's just background noise.

@TeaCatherine it was just an idea anyway lol.

@Eagly I found the tracklist for GOTG Vol. 3 by accident... I'm sorry

@Owl1 Yeah, I know. Anyway, I'll be signing off for the night 'cause my laptop's going to die in a second.

@TeaCatherine G'night!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
