Samantha Lovelace | Voice Actor 🎙️

Since a few new people wandered into this little corner of the internet recently a proper introduction felt overdue 🎙️👋🏻

The fastest ways to burnout in voice acting? 🚫Putting a deadline on your success 😑Giving yourself ultimatums 👎🏼Minimizing your small victories ☠️Focusing on gaining money or clout instead of your artistry

Just realised that I have to buy new suitcases for a month long trip in April. Haven’t been on an actual vacation in years, so this feels less like travel prep and more like a personal attack.

Separate your worth from your bookings. You are so so so SO much more than your work. Never forget that ❤️

Overdid yesterday’s workout and now I can’t even lift my phone properly. Finally limiting my screen time… not by discipline, but by physical inability.

Being bad at something you’re learning will always be better than being loud about something you’ve never had the courage to try.

STOP BEING INSECURE! ✋️ People with unique or interesting voices, or even "cringe" voices, have been iconic in the voice acting industry. It's less about how your voice is and more about if you fit the character. Trust us! There IS a role for you!

SOMEONE DID CULLEN RUTHERFORD WATERMELON TREND AND THEN TWITTER REFRESHED fuck I hate this app

it's said that voice actors book only 2-3% of auditions they submit. TWO TO THREE PERCENT, that's it. Just remember that going forward, and that "send it and forget it" it the motto for a reason. Every no is one step closer to that inevitable yes!

@JosephHobbyVA Ayy! Happy womb escape day, Joseph 🎉

Opened up my profile and was immediately attacked by balloons! Looks like I've survived another year around the sun. That's 33 times, now. I like to say that "I feel old" jokingly, but I think my 30s have been way more impactful than my 20s. I've got voice acting to thank for that, because that's given me the opportunity to meet all of you.

I always hear about TV/film actors who got their most notable roles later in life, but no one ever talks about voice actors who took a long and winding road. I greatly admire all of these people and am so inspired by all of their journeys.

@GrandpierreVA Thank you Dray! 🥹 What an honour to be named alongside such wonderful people.

The heating and warm water in my apartment building have both died. It’s close to 0°C outside and the emergency number isn’t answering. At this point I assume the building management is testing a new “premium cryotherapy experience” that I didn’t sign up for.

Happy National VO Day! 🎙️ Grateful to be part of a craft that turns words on a page into stories, characters, and worlds. There’s always more to learn, more to explore, and more voices to discover. Here’s to showing up, doing the work, and growing one recording at a time.

You didn’t book the role. But you DID put yourself out there. You DID do something most people dream of doing. You DID make a connection regardless of being cast. You DID perform as that character for that moment. You live your dream everyday BECAUSE you’re working for it.

STOP👏CASTING👏BEFORE👏THE👏DEADLINE👏

@GrandpierreVA Excuse me, but that outfit? SLAY.

The Flag and the Face

Check your entitlement at the door. No one owes you a part. CDs don't have to tell you who they cast or why. You go in, do the audition, send it, then move on. The audition is the job. Yeah, we all have gigs we'd really like to land but it doesn't always work out. Keep going. ❤️

SOLASTA 2 (@tct_adventures) just dropped and is installing as we speak. I am currently vibrating at a frequency only detectable by bats. Please do not disturb while I heroically ignore all of my adult responsibilities.

Embrace the cringe. Your first takes will probably be awkward and even downright bad. That’s part of the process. Skill comes through practice. But don’t let fear of being seen while learning stop you. Be scared, but do it anyway. And remember: VA is a marathon, not a sprint.
