Anna Demetriou shares her experience of getting hired as a voice actor in the video game Star Citizen. The audition process for her was last minute and involved reading a paragraph in both an English and American accent. There was also a peculiar part of the audition where she had to run around the room and yell military commands, which seemed odd at the time but makes more sense now. Perhaps they were looking for new voices for the game or assessing full-body movement for mocap. The audition was awkward and embarrassing, but she managed to get through it.
A couple of weeks later, she received the news that she got the job, which came as a surprise to her. She couldn’t believe that the audition she thought was terrible ended up being the one that landed her two parts in the game. This opportunity completely changed her life and is the reason why she now streams full-time on Twitch and has built a community. Star Citizen and the voice acting industry have become the main reasons for her success, and she feels grateful for the game and the support she has received from its community.
Star Citizen has been a big turning point in Anna’s life, and it is the reason she became a full-time Twitch streamer and found success in the voice acting industry. The game has not only brought her happiness and joy but also introduced her to a supportive community. Without Star Citizen, she believes she would be stuck in a job she hates, and Twitch has been a lifesaver for her. The game has had a profound impact on her life and continues to be a source of opportunities and success. It is a truly life-changing occurrence for her.
Overall, Anna’s experience with getting hired for Star Citizen was unexpected and transformative. From a last-minute audition filled with awkward moments to landing two parts in the game and subsequently streaming full-time on Twitch, Star Citizen has completely changed her life. The game and its community have become the reason behind her success in the voice acting industry, and she is grateful for the opportunities it has brought her. Star Citizen has brought her happiness and joy, and she is thankful for the support she has received. It is a remarkable journey that illustrates the impact a video game can have on someone’s life.
