Vanesstradiol
This week, I sit down with Klaus von Hohenloe, a professional voice actor and YouTuber, to discuss their experiences in various creative industries. The conversation delves into Klaus's journey into voice acting, sharing the challenges of finding consistent work, creating authentic voices for characters, and dealing with the rise of AI-generated voices that eerily mimic real ones. He touches on the physical challenges of the job, such as jaw issues from long recording sessions, and I share the unique struggles transgender individuals face in voice work, including voice modification and rejection in the tech industry.
Klaus also talks about his love for tabletop role-playing games, affectionately referred to as "titter pigs," and the importance of finding supportive communities in gaming and content creation. Both Klaus and I emphasize the need for authenticity and passion in our work, rejecting the pursuit of popularity or financial gain as the primary motivation. The episode takes a reflective turn as Klaus discusses the discomfort of hearing his voice turned into AI, navigating social anxiety in the comedy world, and the decision not to have children in favor of following his creative passions. We wrap up the conversation by exploring the complexities of adulting, alternative medicine, and the hope for a brighter, more positive future.
