How is he wrong
Because reading lines from a script in front of you for a videogame is a million times different than actually being put in front of a camera and having to show emotions both physically and emotionally.
An actor having to do a running sequence, showing tears, screaming, etc. takes way more skill than sitting on a recording room saying "Howdy partner, i reckon all 'dem bucks be broken but have ye tried bareback with another cowboy? Yee haw".
Also, voice actors are too ugly to act.
this is correct.
these people are actors in the same way the guy with the mickey mouse suit in disneyland is an actor.
ermm he isn't the actor he's the motion capture artist sweaty
its like when benedict cumberbatch was humping the ground for his groundbreaking performance as the deadly dragon smaug, that really made that movie worth watching
but his performance is of a character, not used as the framework for movement of a 3D model,
Sorkin is an actor wearing a mocap suit,
the martial artist wearing a mocap suit throwing punches at the direction of the Yakuza dev team is a motion capture performer.
He specifically called out full performance capture, not just sitting in a booth reading a script.
He's basically calling out how Rockstar (and maybe other devs) typically have the voice actors also perform the physical animations as well.
Why is that a problem? Because he's too fat for the mocap suit?
From the OP image that doesn't seem to be the problem. It seems he takes umbrage from being called a "voice actor" when he not only talks, but also provides the motion of the character.
>perform the physical animations as well.
I'd bet my life it's not the "actors" being paid to voice the characters the same people that have to do all the stunts, jump, sex scenes, kissing, hugging, punching, dodging, running, walking, driving, holding a gun, holding a bazooka, holding a knife, etc.
They have other people for that. So there's no such thing as full performance capture. Having green dots over your eyebrows so the in game model frowns when the voice actor reads the N word off a script is not acting.
>is not acting.
why not? be specific.
frick off
And actors have stuntmen too
Why would you say something that not only is financially extravagant, which goes against the idea of game companies penny pinching on things that aren't marketing, but also continuously demonstrably false?
That dude is an actor he played lots of gay men on Netflix shows i literally saw him. Now show me Laura Bailey or Troy Baker or Nolan North doing the same.
Why ask something so easy to google?
Laura Bailey (with Ashley Johnson as a bonus)
Troy Baker
Nolan North
homie they are literally just talking...
>Laura Bailey crawling backwards away from dude who's supposed to be the fat mushroom dude isn't even 20 seconds into the video
"they are literally just talking"
You coulda said you were blind bruh.
but all of that is exactly what you do in a full performance capture
nope.
uninformed moron
All other acting involves the audience being able to see the actor.
When the 'actor' is obscured then they are given a special designation... 'puppeteer', 'voice actor' 'motion capture artist'
Because nobody fricking cares and videogames will never be taken as seriously as film no matter how hard people piss their pants over it.
what is he/her even saying?
Roger Clark is the voice of Arthur Morgan. He's saying that because he(and I assume the GTAV cast) did motion capture work in addition to voice, he's not "just" a voice actor.
so he roasted himself by accident? what the shit is this thread even, jannies clean this shit up
Putting funny balls on your face while you do voice acting doesn't make you an actor.
Why not? They are acting as the character.
The only video game actor as far as I'm concerned.
Who the frick is Roger Clark, and why does he come off so salty and butthurt?
Google says.....
he's Arthur Morgan.
So it's all about the money?
Mangoes.
And more money?
does it even matter
both actors and voice actors will be going extinct by the end of the decade
they're dinos and AI is the asteroid
I don't understand the semantics of the OP, what the hell is the guy trying to say?
He's having a fit and saying that the word "voice" being affixed there somehow diminishes his work.
I'M ACTING
Voice acting WELL is harder than it seems, because what you hear in your head isn't often what you actually sound like. Having a good voice director and understanding how to take their direction is probably more important than having "the voice" for it.
Just being a voice actor in and of itself means frick all, save for a few people who have such iconic voices that them merely talking is worth money to some people.
>sub 60iq moron lashes out in frustration after failing to comprehend a basic sentence
lol.
You know what would make these people really mad?
Call them a "Game Actor", and the hollywood's "Movie Actor".
The main purpose of these statements is to make themselves look like they are Hollywood actors too.
But we will not give them that and will continue to differentiate them from hollywood movie actors.
