Default Voice acting in games.

OK, looking for a bit of help or a few pointers here.

Basically, I act for living and just recently i've been looking into how to get into voice acting for computer games as this really would be mixing business with pleasure.

Anyone got any ideas how companys go about casting for their games? Ive got a couple of studios names who handle voice work for games but im pretty sure some games co's do this in house.

Any suggestions would be great.

Cheers.

dave, it would depend really, in terms of accessibility, a lot of the studios are in the US, it would mean you would need to travel there, most likely at your own expense, and there is no guarantee you would get employment either. Although there are a few in England mind you.

What you really need is a multimedia agent that can get these deals for you.

Yeah, thanks guys. Looks like most of it is done in the US as it is cheaper.

Sending my demo off to the few studios here that do it. Also im doing some voice work for the next babylon 5 project game, the freespace mod, should be fun.

Just a lot of the time voice acting sucks in games, i'd love to do this but alas its that bit harder over here.
