A Global Impact in Video Games with Gemma Laurelle - Season 3 Episode 2

After a random discussion on set one day my guest was offered the chance to jump in the vocal booth and enthusiastically said yes.  In this episode my guest describes how she feels she’s the Harrison Ford of the voiceover world! After a period of studying, becoming a lawyer, and enjoying gaming recreationally, she leapt into the fun world of video game voice acting.  Her top tip?  Talk about the things you love enthusiastically. You never know the opportunities that will arise!  Gemma Laurelle is an Australian actor specialising in voicing video game characters and voicing game trailers. Gemma works with studios around the world, voice acting in Warframe, Path of Exile and Eastshade, and voicing game trailers such as EVE Online and Last Epoch. A regular guest speaker at PAX and Game convention panels, and having launched an online course for beginners looking to voice video games, Gemma loves to share insights to help others looking to forge a video game voice acting career. Having fun and creating something with other people brings Gemma a world of joy and she feels makes voice acting an incredible career. Being free to play in the booth and create believable characters is one of Gemma’s main loves in terms of acting. Video games, being so driven by the story, are such a challenging area for voice actors; getting out of your head and into your body.
