Meeting voice actors!
So this weekend at Comic-con I got to shake hands with the voice of Bloo, Keith Ferguson. He’s a friend of a friend, and he showed up at a bar we were hanging out at for a few minutes. I had to take the time to let him know that I love the show, and I have mad props for anything done in Flash.
I also got to shake hands with the voice of Niko Bellic, Michael Hollick. This was less informal, he was working at the autograph booths selling his autographs. I don’t buy autographs, but I had to go shake his hand. While I was walking up to him, someone yelled at him “MY COUSIN!” and he replied by saying hello, but said it exactly like Niko does. Really freaked me out. I thanked him for his work and said it was an awesome game. I wanted to ask him that instead of an autograph, if I could buy him recording a phone message for me, so when you call me it’s Niko saying I can’t come to the phone right now because I’m busy =P But I didn’t want to make him jump through hoops. It also really made me wish I did the Niko costume that I wanted to do. OH WELL!
