    Its a competition, everyone should have had equal opportunity to win. If you look at the winners, and nothing against them, but most of them have deep male voices and one who sounds a little rustic at the end. It seemed very unfair. I didn't enter and just hearing the contest winners was a bit disappointing, not that they weren't good- Just that they were all the same.

    Calling them "all the same" is sexist too, and insulting

    Um.... What...? Please explain to me, how this had anything to do with what I said. I mean did you even use any part of your brain when you gave that response?

    No, I was trolling you, and the fact that you didn't catch on at all and replied seriously is what makes it OH SO enjoyable

    That's kinda what I'm getting at Variety, I wasn't saying it was sexist either I said that it seems a bit sexist. Nor did I say I held that against the winners in fact I applaud them for winning but where was the variety of it? A woman can do an action voice over just as well as any man. I know when I posted I was going more along the lines of Galadriel from her opening of The fellowship of the ring until the end. Again like I said congrats to the winners but they're all deep voiced.

    I did notice that all of them were deep-voiced males...which IS best suited to the video. But it does also make it feel that as a female (with a rather high voice at that), I would never have stood a chance, regardless of how well I did.

    Not picking on you but that what a voice actor does, they change their voice for the role, yes women have pretty and soft voices but there are plenty of ways for a woman to portray her voice in different ways.

    What does that have to do with anything? Are you saying that as a high-voiced female, I could have convincingly come across as a deep-voiced male? lol. I said I have a high female voice, not the inability to put on a serious tone.

    No it means you could have used a voice for the trailer that would fit.
