Cartoon Voices
 

I find cartoon voices fascinating...

Of course most know "mel blanc" from Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, Porky Pig, Foghorn Leghorn, Tweety, Sylvester, Yosemite Sam and a few others
Just to name a few

And most don't know the name but Daws Butler was tops as well

Overall, it just amazes me, from South Park to Scooby Doo haivng Casey Kasems voice-
Seeing the PERSON
but hearing the voice out of a tiny animated person.

Knowing what Seth Green looks like, and watching Family guy lately-
or picking up on Drew Barrymore as a recent addition-
In all, I just found it interesting.

Makes me wonder how someone becomes a "animated voice" in the world...

Certainly the infamous Lorenzo, didn't wake up and say I want to be the voice of a cat!

Strange thoughts at 2 am..

And then there's Frank Welker, who had a middling career as an on-screen actor, but has had a brilliant career not only voicing characters but also providing a fairly broad range of sound effects over the years.

My current favorite is Tara Strong, though - she voices Ray Ray Lee on The Life and Times of Juniper Lee, and she just makes me laugh my butt off when she does that character. And Clancy Brown can be a hoot, as well. Quite a number of big name actors are doing voice work these days, and not just in theatricals.

Let's not forget June Foray, Scatman Crothers or Don Messick.

My favorites tend to be old radio show actors that transitioned into voice work instead of television. I really enjoy the work by Frank nelson, for example. He was all over the place, from playing the Devil in Bugs Bunny and Yosemite Sam episodes, to bit-part comic foils on I Love Lucy, to Our Miss Brooks radio shows.

I hear Steven Blum (Spike, Cowboy Bebop)everywhere now.
Let's not forget Phil Lamar too.

The actor who voices Homer Simpson as well. not sure what his real name is, but he voices a lot of the characters on the show and most everyone has their own distinct sound and personality to them.

He's good!

Dan Castenella Does homer :)
