Breaking: Disney Exits OpenAI Deal After AI Giant Shutters Sora

Very excited to be talking to @keremiswhelmed.bsky.social later for the Omnic Weekly, @theomnicpost.bsky.social's podcast! "So, what's on the docket? Winning, I hope". Keep an eye for when the episode is out 👀

From the moment he was teased 8 years ago, I’ve dreamt of this moment. It is a profound honor to finally announce I voice Emre Sarıoğlu in @PlayOverwatch! Grateful beyond words to my strike team @blizzard.com 🫶🏼 Andrea Toyias, Miranda Moyer and @chrisfaiella.bsky.social #EmreMain #Overwatch

If you want to up your audition game for anime and video games, this is the class to take, folks!

Michael Allan Schneider@quadbonus.bsky.social · 8mo ago

It's that time again, folks. Join me for my acclaimed workshop, The One That BOOKED! I've got a bunch of new material to work with, and can't wait to hear what you've got. Sign up soon, these seats go fast. (class runs approx 3hrs)

The only thing less human than these AI dub performances is the decision to sign off on them A company this big can pay human actors a decent wage, not produce slop that intentionally removes the human element.

Hey just so you know Amazon decided to give us an AI ENGLISH DUB of Banana Fish instead of actually hiring real voice actors it is fucking hot garbage #bananafish #anime

“The Sphinx… LIVES!” I voice the BIG BAD of the LEGO Marvel Avengers Strange Tails animated film, Anath Na-Mut aka Sphinx! Go check it out now on Disney+! Endless gratitude to Collette Sunderman, Studiopolis, Marvel, Lego and my agents at Dean Panaro Talent for this amazing experience!

✨MY PRINT STORE IS NOW LIVE!✨ To celebrate, a special lenticular variant of Hell Joe from Tower of God by the amazing @bobe_florian is available! the artwork shifts from color to stark monochrome upon activating Hell Joe's finishing move, just like in the Tower of God game! L I N K below👇🏼

Part of me always hopes the characters I voice in games end up being meta-relevant. Never did I think when I started that Hell Joe would become the uncontested best purple damage unit in the entire game! HE IS HIM! 🩸👹🩸 #TowerofGodNewWorld

I have a feeling this will not be the last time we see news like this pop up in the near distant future for AI companies. The tech bros will hopefully move to the next grift soon.

Builder.ai just went bust. Around half a billion dollars invested from the likes of Microsoft, QIA and Insight Partners wiped out. Full story here with @alexandraheal.bsky.social. Comes after a run of probing FT stories (led by Alex) on the company and its founder Sachin Duggal on.ft.com/43gI8YN

All will become product. Our faces. Our voices. Our souls. Even death will not save you from being puppeted by a corporation for profit. That's lovely that his family is okay with it, I'm sure they're enjoying the huge bags of money the mouse gave them. Personally I find it vile.

Cosmic Marvel@dailycosmicmarvel.bsky.social · last yr.

The new Darth Vader AI in Fortnite uses James Earl Jones’ voice, recreated with AI. His family says: “James felt that the voice of Darth Vader was inseparable from the story of Star Wars & he always wanted fans of all ages to continue to experience it.”

If being alive is essentially a subscription, and if every company is pushing themselves as a subscription service, then it isn't fair for these companies to expect to pay people once, as if we were products

👹CASTING ANNOUNCEMENT👹 I’m the English voice of Hell Joe in Tower of God: New World! To embody my favorite #TowerOfGod villain was an incredible gift. I’m honored to be the first to bring him to life in English—likely years before his anime debut. Endless thanks to Jen Losi & Netmarble Games!

Anuttacon’s Whispers from the Star going all-in AI with voices. Instead of yelling at actors/recording studios, maybe aim the frustration (clearly and politely) at corps investing millions into theft and inferior product? They think you’ll gladly slurp slop from the trough. Don’t! t.co/HOJCJmxEXQ

The perfect Batfamily portrayal doesn’t exi-… I would greenlight three seasons of this IMMEDIATELY. 12:30am every night on Adult Swim, so the theme song can jolt me awake when I leave the tv on. PLEASE WB, I need this.

Couldn’t let the network test end without killing the Nightlord. Praise be the Birdman of Bleed Damage!🩸🦅🩸 #NightlordFelled #EldenRing #NightReign

It has been 194 days since @sagaftra.org actors started striking video games. In that time, we have signed over 150 games to Interim agreements, proving that our demands are more than reasonable. But the bargaining partners still refuse to give us anything more than lip service. (cont'd)

The year is 2008. In the face of impossible odds, I complete Ninja Gaiden 2 on Mastsr Ninja. The year is 2025. In the face of impossible odds, I once again complete Ninja Gaiden 2 Black on Master Ninja. Now I rest until Ninja Gaiden 4…🔥🥷🏻

“Precious item ahead”🥳 #eldenringnightreign

The primal roar I let out when I beat this level… #NinjaGaidenBlack2 🔥🥷🏻🔥

Has Hudson… Ever seen a single piece of Spider-man media, like ever? He is THE, “Progressive Hero” gateway character for generations of people. Anyone can wear the mask, but I can name so many others far more deserving than this clown.

Peter Parker voice actor Hudson Thomas says his biggest fear about #YourFriendlyNeighborhoodSpiderMan was that it was going to be 'annoying and woke' "And it wasn't ... It's so well written" (via Collider)

“Got a surprise for you, the STARFALL BEGINS!” First announcement of the year kicks off with a bang! I am the voice of evil mastermind Khalil Reis for Season STARFALL in #DeltaForce which launches tomorrow, January 18th, 2025! Fun fact, Khalil marks the first time I ever sang in my VO career!

If yooooou can believe it, it will never quite be Friday ever again… Rest well among the angels, David Lynch. Thank you for all of your amazing work that will continue to forever capture my imagination. 🕯️

Stay safe out there LA friends. If you can, leave the city when safe and wait for the air quality to improve. The smoke and smog should be taken as seriously as the fires themselves.

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Pacific Palisades fire is now most destructive in Los Angeles city history, with an estimated 1,000 structures destroyed.

Happy New Year to all you lovely people. Hope the New Year brings good things to us all, like January movie releases that are so bad, they’re kind of amazing. Hope 2025 brings us the goods. 😌🙏🏼

Makes me think of the animated All-Star Superman adaptation, which is the highest compliment I could give the trailer. Showcasing a Superman with so many threats to deal with, in a world that will test him at every turn excites me. Things are, “looking up”. #Superman

For those downplaying this because it was for internal use, people are still entitled to payment for internal videos at companies. There is an entire subcategory of VO devoted to this kind of work. Lack of consent is exactly what we voice actors are striking for right now.

Netflix used an AI generated Christopher Nolan voice to announce accomplishments for their film division this year at their holiday party (via Puck News)

Something very important to me in getting the Captain right in Clone Drone in the Hyperdome was making sure he always remains likable throughout my performance, despite his comically cruel nature. Seeing some players jokingly saluting him when he pops up on the monitor makes me so happy.

Jeff haters seething rn. We are all Jeff this holiday season. His power only grows!🫧🦈

Went gold today in #MarvelRivals. Fitting it would be my boy Moon Knight that sends me over the top! Earned that Golden Moonlight skin right! 🌙
