I don't know too much when it comes to stuff like this..all I can suggest is to upload it onto your computer somehow, then save it and give it to someone over MSN or something. All I can really think of..*Distracted by the awesomeness of MG* |

What made you decide to voice Mitsuhide? Do you like the character? |

Chin is currently in the process of moving/relocating. LDZ, can you save the convo to a computer via USB or link cable to your computer? If so, use MegaUpload to send the file to Chin's e-mail. Let me know exactly what the problem is. I may be able to help. |

Record it on your computer if you can, and then send it? |

Its done, taking a while on zhare. Its a big file, and a bit fuzzy but bearable. I'll make a better one soon enough. |

Could you let us hear the fuzzy version, or do you not know how to distribute it? |

I was rushing too much yesterday and had to leave, but I'll attempt a beter quality one now. Edit: There's a bit too much fuzz, so we are going to sort it out here before YouTube'ing it. Plus its taking a while to upload - about 20-30 mins. Here you go guys: http://www.zshare.net/audio/13413556ba8244d3/ Please don't mention my stupid question, haha. If you pay attention you may know which I'm referring to...it was a part from our last interview (the failed one) I then recovered the situation with the next question! Edit: A better and more clear version is coming... |

Well, I tried listening to it. It wasn't playing on the link, so I downloaded it. I turned my speakers on MAX volume, didn't hear anything much more than static. Hopefully we can hear this soon 0.o |

How much did you watch? I said the start is slow and you must wait for us to start the questions. |

I heard very faint voices when the volume was maxed..I couldn't really make anything out though, and I was about 4 minutes in. |

Jsun managed to listen to it all, its why I'm asking. And by the way I have just used smaller headphones on it to make a much better version. So much better and clear, I'm listening to it! Wait about 20 mins for zshare: http://www.zshare.net/audio/13419866b9ca99ee/ |

I saw the second version of it; and I must say that you seem to have confused him quite a bit at times and the last "question" about KW seemed to irritate him..at least, he sounded like that to me at times. He seemed nice enough about the whole thing. On a side note, when he said that line acting as Mitsuhide, it didn't seem the same. Maybe it was the quality of it, but I dunno..it just doesn't sound the same 0.o Still well done and thanks to both of you for doing this

I did not sense that I had irritated him. All I had prepared were the questions, and I did alter them during the interview in order to reflect upon what he said. That single question about me confusing him was taken from the first interview and I thought to use it again, so when it went a bit all pear-shaped I recovered the situation, as previously stated on this thread. |

Nice work LDZ. IT was actually really cool. And I know it sounds stupid but I had no idea that you were British. Please don't kill me. :ph43r: :ph43r: :ph43r: |

I felt really relaxed when doing it, haha! I thought I was going to be all-nervous, but thanks I'm glad you two liked it. And now you know I'm British, Gtown.
This video will be YouTube'ed but slightly edited to leave a few unwanted opinions out. Just a few, so don't worry! |

This is not word-by-word, that would be too long and a bit pointless. Note: This is the second interview, the first did not finish and was not saved. I'm saying this since you might get confused at parts. KOEI Warriors interview with Michael Gough LittleDragonZ (KOEI Warriors): Should we get started again then? Michael Gough: Yeah, okay. LittleDragonZ: Did you audition for a part in Koei games or were you approached by them to take a role? Michael Gough: I auditioned for this one. Sometimes I am asked but since this was new for me, I managed to get cast into it. LittleDragonZ: Would you say voice acting is a fulfilling career? Michael Gough: Its great work and competitive, I originally came to LA (Los Angeles) uncertain about what I was going to do, but once I found my way into it from the early ages of a kid...I love it, you get to use your imagination from ideas around the globe. LittleDragonZ: Can you work from home in any of your projects? Michael Gough: I could since I have a recording area at home, but I prefer to go to the studio and meet other faces. LittleDragonZ: If you were asked to voice act for the series again, would you do it? Michael Gough: Sure, I would love to! LittleDragonZ: I hear that voice actors are very busy? Michael Gough: Yeah, its like anything else in showbiz. A big part of the job is the auditioning where you are asked or trying to get into work. Sometimes its busy, sometimes there's no work. Its really competitive and tough, but if you keep trying its worth it, I've been lucky enough to make a living out of it. LittleDragonZ: What has been your favorite role in voice acting so far? Michael Gough: Other then Mitsuhide, haha, well, some of the work has been fun. LittleDragonZ: You've done Shrek haven't you? Michael Gough: Well yeah, I've been doing jobs, you know whenever Mike Myers is unavailable at the time, like commercials and other things that are part of it - I do work then. Right now there's isn't much going-on though. And I've done the Winnie the Pooh series, as Gopher, also doing Zorro for the animated series which is also a lot of fun. Doing these, you get to bring characters to life. LittleDragonZ: So you enjoyed voicing Mitsuhide Akechi from SW1? Michael Gough: Oh yeah, he was great, playing that heroic calm type of character. LittleDragonZ: I must say your voice was terrific! Michael Gough: Thanks! As far as the voice goes it wasn't much different then my own. As opposed to Winnie the Pooh, a weird little character which is fun to! Its nice to be yourself, so to speak. LittleDragonZ: Have you watched or played a game or an anime that you have voiced in? Michael Gough: Not too often, I haven't played Samurai Warriors and I haven't played that many games I've worked on. The most recent one I've watched was Gear of War. I'm always amazed of what consoles produce. LittleDragonZ: Do you have any systems for yourself? Michael Gough: No I don't, but friends have. One of these days I've got to get something to play and do research on, though I've seen most consoles. I imagine you have all of them Samurai Warriors games? LittleDragonZ: I've got all of them for the PS2. Yeah, and the Dynasty Warriors series as well! LittleDragonZ: Okay, I have the last question for you now - If someone was interested in becoming a voice actor, what advice would you give them? Michael Gough: I would say, the first-step is to seek a workshop, take the class and get a hand of whats going-on in the industry to get some practical experience. When I took a class, one of the best ideas was to get given pictures of all kind of things such as animals, and act accordingly. Because a lot of times you do have to do things quickly. That would be the best step, and the next, putting together a demo with an agent and post it online perhaps. LittleDragonZ: Thank you for calling me Michael. Michael Gough: Your welcome Joe. If you've got everything...? LittleDragonZ: Yeah...have you been to KOEI Warriors? Michael Gough: No I haven't, whats the address so I can check it out? LittleDragonZ: You can find it on Google, but its www.koeiwarriors.co.uk LittleDragonZ: So, thanks for your time, goodbye! Michael Gough: Oh right, take care, bye! End of interview... |

Chin needs the credit also, for the music choice and putting all the text and clips & everything together. Thanks all, since last evening when I logged offline its gone from 278 views to 923. It'll probably overtake LDZ's Revenge 2,000 view-mark by the end of the week and that was added over 3 months ago lol. |
