  • Page 4FOR ALL THE VIEWERS READING, PLEASE KINDLY INTRODUCE YOURSELF. My name is Cary Hite. PLEASE TALK ABOUT HOW YOU GOT STARTED IN THE VOICE OVER INDUSTRY. I've had an interest in voiceover since watching cartoons as a kid. Once I started acting, the road to get into this part of the industry opened up. At the behest of an agent, I went to an audition for Audible, booked the projects (four in total), and haven't looked back since.
  • Page 5NOW IN TODAY'S SOCIETY, EVERYTHING IS DONE BY REMOTE WORK. DO YOU ENJOY THIS PROCESS, OR DO YOU PREFER TO SHOW UP AT THE STUDIO? I still prefer to show up to the studio. Noth- ing replaces working with an engineer in the session. They are your first audience, your first ears. When they're engaged in the story with you, they're an invaluable collaborator.
  • Page 6PLEASE KINDLY INTRODUCE YOURSELF. Kia ora Fusion readers!!! It's tubularly rad to get to chat with you in this interview! Thank you so much Fusion team for inviting me to chat with you! My name is Chloë Elmore (the umlaut is just a bit of spicy pizzazz) and I am a New Zealand voice actor, working full-time from my beautiful custom-made recording studio here in the lush countryside of Middle Earth! To get the numbers out of the way, I'm 32 years old and I've been pursuing VO part-time for 11 years, but I've been doing it full- time as my only source of income for 3 years.

Yeah, it wasn't a huge game and they weren't names you'd know, but they are my people, my family, and hang- ing in the same hotel and going to restaurants every night, chatting in the hotel hot tub, and laughing until our abs ached was a massive dream for this little kiwi. It's rare to ever meet your castmates, let alone record in the same room with them, so I was so blessed! I am so content with how my career is skyrocketing, but I do want to reach the stars, of course! I have realised so many dreams of working on national commercials across America, Canada, the UK, Ireland, Australia and New Zealand, but I would love to become a long- running 'Brand Voice' for a big company.

I had worked with colleagues in an office for years and going from that, to locking myself in a padded room by myself all day... was an unexpected adjustment

Another way to make money acting. ;) Years passed. It wasn't until I realized remote voice acting was a real option-home studios, virtual auditions -that I started to find my way back. I started with narration because I love, love books. Audi- tioned constantly, took every class I could afford, joined every group I could find. Within a year, I was working full time.
  • Page 24WHAT VOICE OVERS DO YOU ADMIRE THE MOST FROM HOLLYWOOD? I'm drawn to performances that stay honest-even in exag- gerated roles. Jack Black is a great example. He can go big without losing his human nature. That balance takes skill, and it's rare.

The AR is used as a final step to enhance and expand the traditional comic experience rather than replace it.

Chloë Elmore

But still! I was close! I would love to voice a lead char- acter in a Final Fantasy - but I mean, who wouldn't! One awesome dream that happened just a month ago was being flown to Chicago to act in an audio drama and all 30+ of the cast were voicing in the same studio with each other for a whole 9 days of pure bliss!! Yeah, it wasn't a huge game and they weren't names you'd know, but they are my people, my family, and hang- ing in the same hotel and going to restaurants every night, chatting in the hotel hot tub, and laughing until our abs ached was a massive dream for this little kiwi. It's rare to ever meet your castmates, let alone record in the same room with them, so I was so blessed! I am so content with how my career is skyrocketing, but I do want to reach the stars, of course! I have realised so many dreams of working on national commercials across America, Canada, the UK, Ireland, Australia and New Zealand, but I would love to become a long- running 'Brand Voice' for a big company. That kind of legacy would be such an honour. Those brand voices shaped my secluded homeschooling childhood and gave me so much comfort and connection growing up.

TALK ABOUT WHAT TYPE OF WORK YOU ARE CUR- RENTLY FOCUSED ON.

I am focused on all of it, hah. Video games, animation, audio dramas, commercials, corporate narrations. All of it. Definitely video games is front and centre for me. I would crawl over broke glass on most days in order to get cast in quality video games. Especially AAA. Tragically, I can't yet work on many US jobs since I don't have a SSN. Not YET. And that's a firm requisite for the LA and NYC scenes - which are where all the AAA games get produced. So I definitely have a far worse handicap than the vast majority of English- speaking voice actors in the world, since they are based in America. I definitely have my eyes peeled on commercials, since I find them so so fun and far less damaging to my vocal cords than video games and anime, etc. Also, they are a tidbit easier to do from outside the USA and UK. I work in many different accents, so I pinch a lot of work from those countries and get to voice some amazing content! I tend to get quite a few luxury car spots. Currently, at the time of this interview, my voice can be heard on national commercials for Peugeot, Alfa Romeo, and MG in New Zealand and the UK. So I've got my beady eyes on that automotive arena. But honestly, I believe that what- ever plants itself in my lap or comes across my path is meant to be. And at the moment, I'm so blessed to say that's most genres of VO. **I am engaged in a hard- core pursuit to be a Swiss Army knife voice actor.**

WHAT CAN WE EXPECT FROM YOU FOR 2025?

My plans and dreams for 2025 are grand and expan- sive, but also, I am just taking things one day at a time and I am wearing my dreams like a loose garment. Maybe my 2025 visions and hopes will happen this year, maybe the next or the one after that. And that's totally okay. I feel so so blessed to have the opportuni- ties I'm getting each day, so I feel very content. What- ever happens happens. As long as I can continue "be- ing a joy to work with," as Maurice LaMarche advised me, then I will keep getting maximum bliss out of my job! I just came back from America a couple of weeks ago, having been a presenter at VO Atlanta 2025, so I am hoping you'll hear me at Dallas One Voice Confer- ence as a speaker. I'll be heading to PAX Melbourne in Australia as a speaker in the video game space and to the NZ Game Developers Conference too. And on top of the awesome VO opportunities that I am blessed with, I will be starting to coach VO this year, officially realizing my very first dream from drama school of helping people find their authentic voice and find their freedom and presence in VoiceOver.

CAN YOU SHARE ANY EXCITING PROJECTS THAT YOU ARE CURRENTLY WORKING ON NOW?

Oh gosh, so many exciting things at the moment, a lot of which I can't yet disclose. BUT I am recently released from NDA, so I can officially say I've had the total joy of voicing in the AAA video game 'Path of Exile 2, an action role-playing game developed by Grinding Gear Games and sequel to the long-running 13-year-old original POE. You can hear me as two of the beautiful Lead Class characters: the ballsy, rebellious Yorkshire Huntress as well as the sarcastic, Stoical British Ranger. You can check out the newly- released gameplay trailer for Dawn of the Hunt on YouTube, which had 4 million views in the first few days of release. I am super proud of being a part of the POE family and being embraced by such a passionate and kind community of gamers! Also, just released yesterday - I've voiced the fan-favourite Boss "Monsi- gnor Loskid" in Soulslike ARPG 'AI Limit!

CAN YOU PLEASE LIST YOUR WEBSITE AND HOW PEOPLE CAN REACH YOU?

If anyone wants to follow along with my career, I'll attach my list of Social media links, since I love to stay active and keep it fun and interesting for my followers!

ANY LAST MESSAGE YOU'D LIKE TO SAY TO ALL THE READERS?

Slow and Steady Wins the Race! Love what you do and do what you love. And don't take rejection personally. 'Develop the heart of a child, the mind of psychotherapist, and the hide of a rhinoceros.' And stay connected some good people in this industry. The rejection and isolation get too hard otherwise. I see this industry as a Connection Industry not a Rejection Industry.
