EP10 | Anatomy of a Voice Actor | Xanthe Huynh

Filmed in April 2023, I chat with Xanthe Huynh, dub voice actor on growing up with a theatre and stage acting background that became the foundation to kickstart her anime voice acting career. She provides insightful knowledge, background, and lived expertise on how to grow, nuture, and sustain a 10+ year voice acting career. She took some time to reflect her body of work, paying it forward to new up-and-coming voice actors, and talks about how to deal with anime fame and how she interacts with her fans. 00:00:00:00 Intro 00:04:59:04 Falling in Love With Acting 00:08:58:15 How Theatre Helped Xanthe Shine in Voice Acting 00:11:34:13 Theatre Helped Prepare Xanthe for Voice Acting 00:14:48:00 What Drives Xanthe to Improve Her Craft 00:16:06:20 Stage Acting Foundation Helps Direct Voice Acting 00:20:09:01 Challenges of Starting a Voice Acting Career 00:22:20:14 How Do Voice Actors Improve Their Skills 00:25:59:09 Why Vocal Care Is So Important for a Voice Actor 00:28:18:05 The Most Interesting Warmup Routines for Voice Acting 00:30:02:11 Voice Acting Was Always the Career Endeavor 00:33:52:07 Mindset Shift When Approaching Role Preparation 00:36:11:01 Best Ways for Directors/Producers to Work with Voice Actors 00:41:37:13 Ways to Decompress From a Tough Voice Acting Session 00:44:13:10 First Impressions Matter In a Voice Acting Audition 00:48:17:12 Self Reflection of Current Portfolio vs. Goals 00:56:50:23 On Paying It Forward to Newer Voice Actors 00:59:01:03 Dealing with Fame and Notoriety in Voice Acting 01:06:29:14 How Should Fans Interact with Voice Actors 01:07:58:16 Advice for Up-and-Coming Voice Actors 01:10:36:12 Most Challenging Voice Acting Experiences 01:12:22:08 Future PlansWhere to Find Xanthehttps://www.instagram.com/itsxanthorhttps://www.imdb.com/name/nm3125992https://x.com/itsxanthorhttps://www.facebook.com/ItsXanthor/https://www.xanthesvoice.com/Where to Find The MJL PodcastTwitter: https://twitter.com/kokiriknightInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/themjlpodcast/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@themjlpodcastYouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCIUGuzy-jlb8ZyLtWgOIzqwSpotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3yOotaIFhhFGCFbDWoTJ3u?si=9dJpc8vrQ_CgLnFz3kGTFQ
