you will not regret working with this amazing crew, go audition

2 F / 1 M / 4 ALL UNPAID - Game Jam Entry Hello hello #voiceactors! It's been awhile but the crew and I are back! We're working on Seafaring Critters 🐚📖, a visual novel entry for #UnderwaterJam 2026! Details for #castingcall below! Auditions are open until 16th August, Sunday 8am EDT / 12pm GMT

Here we have a pup enjoying the fruits of his labor after a hard day's work. 13/10 good for him

With apologies to Marin, because I know they've seen me bring up this example before, but if only to re-enforce it for those who didn't know... My favorite example: "Sonic the Hedgehog" games were originally union, went non-union, then went *back* to being union. :D

I started walking my dog in the mall on days when it's too hot to walk outside (that heated pavement hurts their paws!). Ironically? He now prefers those. Aside from being AC'd, he also runs into way more people to request belly rubs from. Happy ninth birthday, Griffin--love 'ya,buddy!

This, this is what AI can't do. This is why we create. Expression, bringing out emotions, showing humanity. That's art goddamnit

I kept Hank’s back to the camera for that line because that’s the most emotional he gets in the speech, and I just kinda felt like… the audience shouldn’t get to see his face here, we’re not a part of this, it’s a private moment for a man and his best friend.

"..when we lost you.. well, I'm not sure I'm ready to go through something like that again" had me crying both times I watched it, and again just now rewatching the clip to get the wording right. King of the Hill is a beautiful thing.

Haha...just realized that today marks the release of *two* projects I did featuring southern-accented characters! Besides "King of the Hill," there's also this scary game, done on the Game Jam Waiver contract, which includes yours truly as the voice of S.A.M., a southern-accented robot boss.

Parastatic is OUT NOW! 🚀 This sci-fi thriller visual novel was created in two months for the CGDCT VN Jam 2026 by an incredible team and features... - Full voiceover! - A cast of lovable characters! - Suspense, tension, and terror! The game can be found here! taylorsconfused.itch.io/parastatic

"King of the Hill" is back for more heartfelt hilarity, and I once again had the honor of performing the Audio Description for it. I hope you have as fun a time watching it as I had performing hte AD for it! www.disneyplus.com/browse/entit... #KingOfTheHill #AudioDescription #DisneyPlus #Hulu

Slight S15 KotH spoilers, but when I put together the layout for this pet cemetery in episode 02, I asked everyone on the crew for names of pets they wanted to see memorialized because I think real pet names hit different than generic placeholder names I would invent on the spot-

Just gonna throw this out there, too--Taylor can not only act, he can *direct,* too, and quite well!

Today is International Non-Binary People's Day, and since I'm non-binary, that means I get to plug my work. >:) I'm Nate Fernandez, a non-binary voice actor! I love bringing all sorts of characters to life, so please don't hesitate to reach out if you'd like to work together!

Parastatic is nearing its final stretch of development! We have a couple more assets coming in, and then we'll be polishing, polishing, polishing! Hooray! Until then, enjoy this CG created by @haikuhello.bsky.social featuring Marcy! ...She's probably fine.

🎨 RECRUITMENT POST 🔮 (Seeking 2 backgrounds for a pro bono, Union game jam project) Hi, all! An indie team I'm helping spearhead is currently looking for coverage on 2 game BGs (one town square, one natural space). If you've got avail or know folks who might, please let me know via Reply or email!

I'll be among a group of panelists talking about Audio Description as part of the Audio Description Awards Gala! To listen in, head to the link below beginning at 5:00 PM PT / 8:00 PM ET. Thank you again, American Council of the Blind, for having me on! acbmedia.org/home/streams...

Two of the Disney productions that I had the honor of performing the Audio Description for, "The Roses," and "Shifting Gears" have both been nominated for the People's Choice Award for Best Audio Description in their respective categories (film and TV)! adawardsgala.org/2026-audio-d...

*Very* late to this, but a great drama film that I had the honor of performing the Audio Description for, "Miss You, Love You," is on HBO. A very moving little film about grieving loss, and the healing process from it! #AudioDescription #MissYouLoveYou #HBO play.hbomax.com/movie/66933f...

Ever since I started writing dub scripts, I've had a newfound appreciation for the movie, "Kung Pow." This bit in particular always gets a laugh out of me, because now I know the nightmare of having to write a lip-synced script for a close-up shot of someone's mouth. www.youtube.com/watch?v=_CQP...

I can never *not* be proud of this guy. I met him in a dubbing class around the time I moved out to LA, and he was talking about maybe moving out to the states--which he did. Moving to *another country* to pursue your dreams is *no* small feat, and I will always respect that level of dedication!

Happy 8 Years since I moved here to make my Voice Acting Dreams come true. It doesn't feel that long at all. I'm really proud of what I've managed to accomplish in my time here, especially in spite of the many difficulties and obstacles that have presented themselves in the past few years 😊

It's time for another character! This time it's... Lacey! Lacey has been in my head for a bit, so it's wonderful that she finally gets to see the light of day. She's also a rare character I had a hand in designing, alongside @haikuhello.bsky.social. I hope you look forward to seeing her in-game!

Taylor Fernandez@taylorsconfused.bsky.social · 2mo ago

As development on Parastatic moves forward, I'd wanted to create some little character cards to introduce the cast, starting with our lead, Wen! Wen's character has changed a lot over the course of development, but I'm very happy with where we have her now. I'm excited for y'all to meet her! :)

Of note: this informational meeting (followed by a Q&A) is open to *all* actors, regardless of union status. Zeke is also highly knowledgeable on all union matters, so if you've got any union questions, I'd *highly* recommend going to this meeting!

So, I hold off on buying game consoles until a game comes out on it that I feel is worth the several hundred dollars it would cost to buy the console. Welp. Between the Star Fox remake, the Ocarina of Time remake, and the new Xeno game...fine, Nintendo, haha, I'll get a Switch 2. 'Ya got me!

Shut Up And Take My Money - Fry Meme

Alt: A meme of the character of Fry from "Futurama." He reaches into the interior pocket of his red jacket and takes out a fistful of cash, forcefully extending his cash-laden hand forward as he shouts, "Shut up and take my money!" Blocky white meme text falls down from the top of the screen onto the frame to spell out what Fry is saying.

Development on Parastatic has begun! I hope to share the development process here on Bluesky as we work on this game over the next two months. Our beginnings are humble and full of placeholders. LOL The character art is done by @haikuhello.bsky.social! #vndev #indiedev #indiegame #visualnovel

This is actually kinda complicated. Sure, I for one would *love* to see more working-class voice actors in big-name animated films. That said, animation voice acting -- largely *because* of big-name celebrities -- is still overwhelmingly unionized, and that's worthy of <continued in next post>

ToonHive@toonhive.bsky.social · 2mo ago

Matthew Lillard criticized the industry for prioritizing celebrities over voice actors in animation: “The ability to carry a film, as the lead of a film with only a voice, is a power very few people have. The idea that they keep hiring crappy celebrities to carry huge films is killing us.”

Hi, all! We've got coverage on most of these assets, but there are still a trio of BGs, one related CG, and a top-down map we're looking to find folks for! As before: if you're interested, feel free to drop a link to your portfolio here (or DM me) + specify what you'd be interested in working on!

Rather than scream at the sky over people continuing to sell their souls to the plagiarism robots... If you're a visual artist and wanna work on a fantasy/slice-of-life indie game that's unpaid but Union, vehemently anti-Al, made by a majority trans team, and is only a 2.5-month commitment: hi. 👋

Season 2 of "Deli Boys" is out now on Hulu and Disney+. Unfortunately, I won't be coming back to perform the Audio Description, as Disney has opted to replace me with an AI voice. My full thoughts can be found here: www.facebook.com/share/p/18X4... #DeliBoys #AudioDescription #DisneyPlus #Hulu

Just a quick heads up; today is the FINAL DAY to audition for Wen! You have until 11:59 PM EDT to audition!

Taylor Fernandez@taylorsconfused.bsky.social · 3mo ago

Hello! Following up on the previous PARASTATIC casting call, we have extended the deadline for Wen and opened her up to all Southeast Asian actors! This game is on the Game Jam Waiver, meaning all talent will receive union-grade AI protections. The sides can be found below!🌠 tinyurl.com/parastatic
