Vanessa Jones Voices, Professional Animation Voiceover

Animated characters are full of personality. Good character voice overs demonstrate emotional range, often within a short time span. They also require imagination and just the right pacing. Even when an animated character is following a trope – the absent-minded professor, the awkward outcast – the skilled voice actor must make the character a believable individual who is relatable and complex.

Animated characters have internal lives that the voice talent must bring out. Cartoon characters often have particular vocal qualities or sounds they make that betray some of what is going on in their internal world.

Vanessa’s background in acting and improvisation helps her play with her character voices and get to the heart of what makes her animated characters tick.
