What's good Newgrounds family! It's been awhile since I posted a news update, but I feel it's fitting for this announcement! I had the privilege of being interviewed by The Interviewer/The Great One! The interview is two parts long, and you can read the first part here!

Make sure you check out Part 2 as well and get to know me a bit more!

Hey Newgrounds fam!

On Twitter a few weeks ago, I proposed the idea of putting together a sea shanty collab and a lot of people were interested in doing it.

So, now that things are all wrapped up with the Newgrounds Voice Acting Collaboration 2022, it's time to set sail and sing some shanties! I put together a post in the forums that you can check here:

Sea Shanty Collab

There, you can check out what we have in store for the collab, what we need and where you can sign up! If you're interested, make sure you read the post and sign up! I'll be setting up a Discord server soon so we have a place to communicate and organize everything! Looking forward to this one!

Hey Newgrounds fam!

I'm sure you've seen by now, but the newest Spooky Month from @SrPelo is out NOW! Make sure you check it out and show your support! Pelo and his crew have put together an AMAZING episode! Spooky Month continues to get better every year and this is easily the best one!

As you see in the credits, I was blessed with the opportunity to voice Bob in this episode, the main villain! This opportunity was the most amazing one to date. I'm incredibly fortunate to work with Pelo and be a part of this BRILLIANT series! I truly hope you enjoy the cartoon and my performance as Bob! Let me know what you think!!!

Pelo, again my friend, I can't thank you enough for giving me this opportunity. I'm still blown away that you offered the role and let me be a part of Spooky Month. I hope my performance as Bob lived up to your expectations. It's been an absolute privilege to work with you and I hope we get to work together in the future! ¡Muchas gracias amigo!

Hey NG fam.

I hate to do this, but I don't know what to do right now. I'm hurting financially and it's taking a toll on me and my family. My wife recently had surgery and is out of work for a few months and we used up a lot of our savings to pay for it. That leaves us with one income and my day job does not pay enough to cover us. I'm stressing the fuck out because of this.

I know we all have our bills to pay and mouths to feed, but if you're willing to help me out, I would GREATLY appreciate it. If you choose not to, i wholeheartedly understand and wouldn't blame you. If you'd like to donate though, I could record a message for you in a character voice of your choosing as a means to thank you for helping me out. Just let me know in your message. I HATE doing this stuff (asking for help like this to strangers), but I'm in need of some help.

I set up a Ko-fi page if you're inclined to help me out. Love you NG fam, your love and support for me has ALWAYS meant the most.

Holy hell Newgrounds fam...I just reaches an awesome milestone on this AMAZING site! My voice has officially been featured in 100 animations! The newest toon by my homie @Cheetoh (The NFT Support Group) propelled me to this achievement! Thank you for bringing me on to help voice in your awesome toons buddy!

To all of the animators on NG that have allowed me to voice in your toons, I truly appreciate you. Your belief and support in me and my voice acting ability means the world to me. You guys allow me to live out my dream, and for that, I'm forever grateful! Here's to many more toons and funny voices from an idiot like me! :D Love you Newgrounds!

What's good Newgrounds!

Lot's of good things happening recently and I want to fill you guys in on whats been going on!

First off, I want to talk about the Newgrounds Voice Acting Collaboration. We wrapped up the '21 Collab with Part 2 on Nov. 30th and I'm so happy that y'all have enjoyed listening to the 15 new audio skits we produced. We had a blast putting it together and we're already working on Part 1 of the '22 Collab! We brought on a decent amount of new VA's, and writers, and I'm EXCITED to see what they bring to the table! Part 1 should release on May 30th, so stay tuned!

Second, December marked my one year anniversary working on the Newgrounds Podcast. This show changed my career and allowed me to connect further with the community. I have to thank @PsychoGoldfish, @Xinxinix, @Will and @GoodL for bringing me on and giving me this AWESOME opportunity. This show has grown, and transformed, into something greater then what it started as and I'm grateful to be part of that. We're now a platform for Newgrounds creators and we give them a chance to shine and show off what they do, warms my heart. We're looking to continue growing and making NGP the best podcast it can be throughout 2022.

Third, the new year started off with a BANG. My dude @Dungeonation finally put a bow on his KILLER remake of Pico vs. Bear. For nearly a year, Dungeon and his team worked hard to bring this remake to life and the fact it's out now makes me so happy. I was at the right place, at the right time, and Dungeon presented me the chance to voice Pico. Out of all the roles I've portrayed in my career, this one meant the most. Bringing Pico to life and providing a voice for him was a dream come true for this 90's kid. When I first checked out Newgrounds in 2002, I played ALL of the Pico games. Now, 20 fucking years later (fucking crying emoji) I got the chance to voice the orange hair dude in a game. Life comes full circle am I right? The overwhelming support and praise this game has earned makes me proud to be a part of it. Also, the fact that you guys love my take on Pico's voice made me tear up, no lie. It reassured me that I did Pico justice and brought that energy/style that we all know and love about him. What's even more cool is seeing you guys proclaim that I should be the official voice. We'll let Tom make that call, but I love you guys for that. On top of all that, Pico vs. Bear DX allowed me to work with @Luis as well which was DOPE! Luis needed a simple line from me for his toon 'Boxing Day 2021,' and I over delivered, because I'm an over achiever, and he really appreciated it. I'm hoping that this encourages Luis to hire me again if the opportunity arises. Here's to potentially more opportunities to voice Pico in the future as well!

Fourth, I'm sure you guys attended the Newgrounds Winter Fest this past weekend, but if you didn't, you missed out! This fest was just as awesome as Summer Fest and I hosted a panel this time around! My panel was titled 'Beginner's Guide to Voice Acting' and I rambled off as much info as I possibly could within the hour and 15 minutes I was allocated. The turnout was great, a lot of questions were asked and a lot of you claimed my panel was really helpful. Thank you guys for watching, it truly means a lot to me, and if you have any questions pertaining to voice acting, hit me up and I'll do my best to answer it as best as I can! There was a ton of info I didn't cover though, so I kinda want to hold an event with @Stanpai in the Fest server so we can cover EVERYTHING I missed! Whatcha think Stan? I'm very passionate about helping other VAs live out their dream, so I want to help in any way possible, especially when it comes to delving out tips and advice! If you missed all three days, you can catch the replays on the Fest's YouTube channel! If you want to check out my panel, I hosted mine on Day 1. Thank you again Stan and @LilSpook for letting me host a panel!

Fifth, I'm nearing a goal that I set out for myself in 2022. That goal is acquiring representation, an agent, and that accomplishment is in reach early into the new year! I was fortunate to sit down with an agent, via Zoom, and we talked about voice acting, my career/journey and what I hope to accomplish from it. I must have really impressed her because she's taken it upon herself to find me an agent. Unfortunately, she reps on screen talent only, but she's a voice actor as well and knows a lot of people within the industry. She's put a voice package together for me that includes my demo, some of my work on Newgrounds and various other projects and is shipping it out to agencies. This is huge because word of mouth from a repuatble person goes A LONG WAY in the industry. So please pray for me, cross your fingers and anything that you can to make sure this happens. This will be HUGE for me and my career and will open the door to a lot of opportunities! I'll keep you posted if anything comes up!

Lastly, over the weekend, I surpassed another milestone on Newgrounds, 1,700 fans. You guys continue to blow my mind and leave me flabbergasted with the love and support you show me and my career. It seems like yesterday when I was excited about surpassing 100 fans and now I'm getting closer and closer to 2,000. What's even more surprising is the growth over the last year or so. I think around this time last year, I posted about hitting the 300 fan milestone. So nearly in a years time, almost 1,500 new people chose to support me and my voice acting career. You guys are truly the best. I said this is my panel, but I wouldn't be where I am today without Newgrounds. This site, and you guys, have supported me every step of the way of my journey and I can't thank you enough. Newgrounds helped me land my first gig ever and I'll always remember that. No matter where I go in this journey, I'll ALWAYS be repping Newgrounds and this community. Thank you so much for helping me achieve this milestone and I can't wait to entertain you guys further!

Much loves as always to those I mentioned above and to @NickSenny, @JoshDytonVO, @LuckyDee, @Fro, @SailorSilverStar, @Dannygoodshirt, @scottwjsm, @bro-son, @zaazng, @misterjames and all the countless others who push me to be the best that I can be as a voice actor.

OH! And thank you @TomFulp as always for keeping this amazing site running for all. I always be in your debt :)

Hello Newgrounds!

We're looking to bring on new voice actors, writers, composers and audio engineers/sound designers for the NGVAC 2022! I put together a forum post in the voice actor section, but I want to get the word out there further! If you're interested in voice acting, please following the instructions to be considered for the collab. If you're a writer, please send in some samples of your work. Composers, share some tracks you're extremely proud of and sound designers, we'd love to hear something you've worked on production wise as well! Please feel free to DM me, submit in the forum post or even comment on here! Thank you!

Hello Newgrounds!

As you can see from the front page banner art, Part 2 of the '21 NGVAC is FINALLY out! Over a span of six months, we wrote and produced 15 new audio skits for your entertainment! More so, combined with Part 1, we produced a total of 30 audio skits in 2021. I'm incredibly proud of this crew and the accomplishment they've earned! It truly is a feat being able to compile this many skits in an entire year! Go and give Part 2 a listen if you haven't yet!

NGVAC 2021, Part 2

We tried this new approach for 2021, breaking up the collab in two parts, and I feel it has been a true success for our team. Instead of having to deal with a bundle of skits for an entire year, break it up into parts, divert certain skits to each part, and go from there! Part 1 was a great successor to the OG and Part 2 is off to a great start! I think we've nailed our format for years to come!

We try to push ourselves to new limits with each rendition and Part 2 was no exception. We incorporated three new genres for skits in Part 2. We saw our first anime skit, an opera skit and even a skit that focused primarily on being told through an answering machine. So far, those skits are receiving great praise! I love seeing new ideas go off without a hitch!

This crew has been absolutely incredible since Day 1 of production, on both Parts! I've received help like no other from some key people, those being @NickSenny, @JoshDytonVO and @LuckyDee. They helped me manage throughout 2021 and kept this thing afloat. Nick basically ran Part 1 and his efforts literally raised the collab to new expectations! As he stepped back a bit for Part 2, Lucky stepped up to help us manage the day to day necessities of the collab. Even though life kept throwing curveball after curveball to Josh, he still managed to help with production and voiced in numerous skits, proving he's a master of multitasking. You guys are awesome and I'm so thankful that you guys have been by my side for '21!

To my entire crew, new and veteran, you guys stepped it up TREMENDOUSLY this year. Writing was phenomenal, composositions were great and the acting was top notch. I'm so blessed to have a team of such talent! Following up on that, to the new actors who came aboard this year, you guys shined the brightest! I was truly blown away with your skills, deliveries and overall performances! Use this as a platform to grow further! Those who come to mind are @chitstain, @sailorsilverstar, @kenkoiphish and @tommytomtom619! Every actor, you guys are the reason we do this! To give you a platform, and playground, to have fun on and shine as bright as you can!

My writers, composers and producers, you were literally the backbone to this collab, especially in Part 2. For the OG @Fro and myself headed basically every skit, but this year, so many people contributed skits. @Fersto, you mad man, provided an array of skits ranging in various genres. This allowed us to push our acting abilities as far as they could, thank you man! We also had skits written by Chitstain, @jennyglynn, @dannygoodshirt, @hazencruz, @thatjohnnyguy, @seanofartsandvoice, @bro-son, @squidwardtesticles and @zaazng!

A major thanks needs to be given to Zaaz. He stepped up BIG TIME in various ways! He composed numerous tracks, including the opera for 'A Time to Duel,' wrote a skit, voice acted in a few skits and came in clutch on the production side! His help allowed us to stay on track and knock some skits out in a timely manner! I want to thank Chitstain, Hazencruz and Johnny for helping with production as well! All the way to the wire, you guys worked relentlessly to complete the skits on time! I TRULY APPRECIATE YOUR HELP!!!

Again, I'm extremely blessed to work with this crew. What started out as a simple idea, has turned into a staple for the voice acting community of Newgrounds! You guys are the absolute best!

Another special thanks needs to be given to @doctorgrambo for hooking us up with the awesome graphic you see on the front page! Also, @TomFulp, your continued support in this community and collab means a great deal to us all! Thank you for providing a platform for us to grow on and believing in our talents!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Now, for future talk!

With the 2021 officially complete, we're going to take a few weeks off and get right into working on the 2022 collab! If you're a voice actor, writer, composer or sound engineer and want to be a part of the collab, please reach out to me! We'll be clearing house with some members who ended up going MIA, some right after they joined. So we're looking to stock up with members who want to be active and create! For a project like this, we need all hands on deck and at all times! Feel free to leave a comment below or reach out to me via DM!

Thank you again for taking the time to listen to Part 2 ans showing your support to our community!

Hello Newgrounds!

I hope by now you've taken the time to see the trailer of 'Astromon,' an original anime created by our fellow Newgrounds family member @Dannygoodshirt. You many know Danny from his yearly Dr. Good Halloween collaboration, or even "Fists of Fulp." The guy is extremely creative and loves helping fellow Newgrounds patrons achieve their goals. Well, it's only fitting that we return the favor and help him achieve his goal now! Danny has been creating, and building, the story behind Astromon for over two years now. With his pilot script complete, character backgrounds and stories sculpted out and the Indiegogo page ready to go, Danny is finally ready to launch this awesome anime. We're planning on having Danny jump on an upcoming episode of NGP to talk about the show further soon so don't miss out on that! For now, I'm dropping the link to the trailer below. Even if you've seen it already, check it out again and spread the word! If any of you find this anime intriguing, PLEASE support it by donating to our Indiegogo page (That link is below also). I've seen the pilot script, I know the characters (I even voice one of them!) and know what the series entails and I'm proud of what Danny has put together. It deserves to be created! Helping a family member out is what Newgrounds does best! Let's contribute to Danny's success everyone! Thanks for checking out Astromon and supporting the anime!
