GUEST ANNOUNCEMENT: Jake Paque Jake Paque is a Shumatsucon veteran, and all-around super cool guy. Check him out online! https://www.youtube.com/user/StagNationFilm https://twitter.com/jakepaque
Man, Jake Paque really laid on the hurt in this last episode Those screams were more heartbreaking than the original!
With that, I’m even more nervous now when we reach them in the dub. 😥
Fun fact: Professor Sycamore and Dumon have the same voice actor.
Thoughts about the last week
This is straight up thoughts I wanted to share.
So, I went to Ramencon this past weekend which was an anime convention. I met some amazing people there. One was Eric Stuart, who voices James, Brock, Kaiba, and a ton of other characters as well as has his own band, the Eric Stuart Band which is amazing. Anyway, he said something about people writing their own works, vs writing fanfic. I really like what he said, but at the same time disagree. He said work on your own works because then you can at least get some profit from it, where fanfic you cannot. I like this but being a fanfic writer, I see that people write for many reasons, it’s a great way to get experience because you see what works and what doesn’t so when you write an original story, you have some experience behind it. What are your thoughts? I think seeing him and listening to what he said is kind of pushing me to write some more original stories, which I had planned anyway, it’s just an extra push.
Another person I talked to at Ramencon was Jake Paque who voices Professor Sycamore from Pokemon. He was super nice and gave me some advice (as someone in a media field to someone just coming out of college) and although I was looking for a more general advice (keep creating, keep trying, get experience, etc) he talked to me a bit and told me about the process for voice acting/animation (where I learned mostly live TV/newscasting) and gave me some ideas of where to look for jobs/opportunities.
Then, work has been worse than usual. I’ve worked there for 3 years and I think I’m just done with what I can do there. It’s not in my field, and though, I love what I am doing, there is too much drama/management issues. I’m hoping to get into my field or some kind of writing career for a while and then start into grad school. My ultimate goal for a while has been to become a professor, and I know I need a great amount of experience to be able to teach anyone anything, but I think I could help many people in creative writing, because not only am I helping them have fun, express emotions and do something different, I’m helping them get better at grammar for any kind of business writing, I’m helping them find themselves, and helping them explore a career they might not have thought of before. It will be a long time before I am ready to get into grad school (original writings to apply, teacher recommendations, plus a few years in my bachelor field *communication/media*) but I hope that this time I’ve decided where I want to be and what I want to do.
Between now and the new year I have a lot to do and a lot of changes coming at me. Hoping for a new job/career. Getting married in a month to the love of my life who supports me, no matter how crazy my goals and ideas are. and just so many more changes and decisions. I will keep writing, as it’s my stress relief, but look forward to new and better poems, fics, ideas, short stories, and maybe even other forms of media as a I practice what I learned the past 4 years.
Thanks guys for being here with me. <3
Official Post from Interrobang Studios: For our video, we lucked out on a deep and cosmic level. Even though I don’t feel prepared with pre-established relationships in the realm of online gaming vlogs, blogs, and review requesting, we apparently hit the jackpot in Video production. We’ve managed to form completely ulterior-motive-free fr
#KickKickBangBang #Blog Post #14! Let's #Make a #Kickstarter #Movie! Interrobang Studios' Kevin Bolk and the whole crew teamed up with Jake Paque (of #Pokemon & #YuGiOh voice acting fame!) at our local #Comic #Shop: Amazing Spiral to make our #PocketRivals Kickstarter video. Today's blog covers a whole bunch of filming preparations that we learned working with a pro like Jake!
I actually ran down a list of things that I became acquainted with as part of this filming process. Looking them over, some are “no kidding, Sarah,” and others are things we hadn’t fully considered or appreciated until Jake or Sage or Driana or circumstances make us realize what we’d missed. ((Important note:: I do NOT believe that a kickstarter needs a pro-level video to succeed. We all build what we can with the tools that are available to us at the time. It’s only on little successes that larger successes are built, right?))
So as I go into this, if you’re like, yeah… okay… that doesn’t apply to any project I could do, I would actually argue that it all does. Whether it’s your first or your 50th, these things matter in that you are aware you have options.
