Voice acting is the art of using one's voice to portray characters in various media, such as animated films, video games, and commercials. Voice actors bring characters to life by conveying emotions, personality, and distinct traits through their vocal performance. This skill requires not only a good voice but also the ability to interpret scripts and understand the character's motivations. In addition to animation and gaming, voice acting is also essential in dubbing foreign films and creating audio content like podcasts and audiobooks. Professionals in this field often work in studios, using microphones and sound equipment to record their performances, which are then edited and mixed for the final product.
