Main Topic: Brett Weaver Interview

1) How did you get your start?

2) If you could discuss the process? Do you watch the show first? Do they supply it? Are you watching the screen while you do it?  Are you by yourself or are other actors present? How does it all happen?

3) Did you have any affiliations with the anime community or fandom before becoming a voice actor? Did you watch anime?  Or had you even heard of it before being approached?  Has it changed since becoming a voice-actor?

4) We’ve noticed you’ve worked for a number of companies such as ADV films and Funimation, is it normal for a voice actor to work for multiple companies or is this abnormal in the industry?

5) Do you have any funny/interesting stories from any projects you’ve worked on that you would like to share?

6) What is your favorite kind of role and/or show to work on and why?

8) What is the process of getting a voice acting role for an already working voice actor? How many tapes do you have to send in for one role?  Is there a point where you’re so “big” that you don’t have to send in tapes?  Do people approach you for roles?  Is there an interview process after submitting a tape?

7) What is the work environment like? Are you friends with other voice actors? Do you go out for drinks after a project? People high-fiving in the hallway?  Or do people normally keep to themselves and their projects?
