"I have a frugal nature within me." ProZD said, backed by his 2 full cabinets of anime statuettes.
I was going to comment exactly this!
Only the necessities
doesnt he have a lot of unboxing videos. i would assume fans send him things
Frugal doesn't mean you mise every penny lol. I spend almost nothing on non-essential costs of living and over a years work you still accrue a lot of stuff lol, gifts, mementoes, purchases that you planned for your birthday etc. A shelf like that could easily build over a 10 year period. Think of frugal more like 'I dont replace what I have, and i dont buy new things unless I really want them, in which case I make it a special purchase'.
@@l.p.7585 u think his weaboo anime figures are essential? Or a better purchase than buying an actually acceptable pair of headphones? Lol

In another universe there could be king dragon games? Well it's been a pleasure, I'll remember you all in therapy.
I was thinking some sort of reviewer (which most are writers)- Board Game reviewer (if such a thing existed) or food reviewer as he does a good job of explaining even just subtle differences between reese's and pringles. He'd probably be great at video game reviewer as well.
He is at least technically a writer!

You can get second hand manga for mere cents in the right places
But for him i assume at least most figures are gifts from friends family and fans. I was always poor but ended up with a lot of anime, manga, and fandom plushies just as a collection of mostly gifts over several years

"If you break NDA, you get in big trouble"
I ***really*** wish more people would realize this.
I worked in IT at 343 Industries for about a year back in 2017-2018 . As such, I knew some of the stuff about Halo: Infinite and the Series S and X before that info became public knowledge. Like I didn't even work on the game itself and I would get hounded by friends and colleagues for info (and interviewers, though part of me thinks that was to help make sure I was trustworthy with my NDAs). I CAN'T TELL YOU, I would get in so much trouble it's not even funny. Even now I can't even really say what I knew before release, but at least I can talk about my time there a little easier.
Do you know how much money you would be sued for if your broke your nda? Do they state it in the contract before you sign? Or is it just a where going to sue you for everything you have.
@@matthewdaub we're*
@@matthewdaub Generally it's pretty nebulous (I don't have the exact wording in front of me but "damages" is common phrasing, and they then have to convince the judge of that). It also goes against your record, and I would never be able to work at Microsoft or one of their subsidiaries ever again (and other companies could probably figure it out as well).
Is it worth it to lose out on your career over some immediate clout? No. Don't bite the hand that feeds you, especially if it's nice to you (I quite enjoyed my time at 343i, I have no reason to potentially harm the company)

THIS
He's already a voice actor.
I know you're talking about questions on Twitch specifically, but I wanted to mention something I think is related: interview questions. I'm a pro interviewer who hates asking talent a lot of the questions you listed here for exactly the reasons you describe. Unfortunately, a lot of outlets require these questions be asked because that's what gets clicks. I pushed back on this because I want to foster a better space for creators, interviewers, and fans, and I'll tell you what happened -- I got fired.
Thanks for making this video. I don't think it'll stop the questions, but I will probably just link to it from now on when people try to force me to ask them.
I don't know how professional interviews work, but could you brief the talent beforehand that you've a couple questions you need to get out of the way before you can get to the interesting stuff? Either way, sounds like a shitty industry, both for talent and for fans.
@@nimulosmaltibos9662 It's not really a great selling point for yourself or your outlet to admit at the top of the interview that there are some questions you are required to ask that you know are bad. Also, and this is purely anecdotal, interview time is brief. I usually get 10 minutes max with talent and I don't want to waste any time providing qualifiers.
@@nimulosmaltibos9662 I don't understand how it's shitty for fans if these questions get clicks. Doesn't that mean people want to know the answers to those questions?
@Tomaskers Music That, and I say this with respect, is something I might do if I weren't focused on the fact that I currently have no way to pay my bills!
@@Pranav_Bhamidipati I think they mean it’s shitty for old fans who know the answers and have heard this question asked so many times
I feel like every voice actor should make a video like this. Even from an audience prospective some of those questions get old after hearing them at every con panel, stream and comment section. That said, thanks for posting this, it was very fun to watch.
It’s not a good structure. Making a video like this doesn’t work in practice because he has an ever-expanding fan base and new people will come in a few years later and won’t see this video, ask again, and half of the ProZDs in alternate universes where he becomes crotchety and mean-spirited over the coming years will berate them like they did something wrong just because a single video exists explaining a set of questions. There are channels who do stuff like this and the people who run them usually end up being super stuck-up pricks who openly insult their audience.
Answering questions is part of the job. When you’re a public figure, people ask questions - even the same really stupid questions. You answer them with a welcoming face because your career will start to crumble if you act like a dickhead and tell off the people funding your paychecks. I never asked myself, but I think that demanding people not ask these questions ever again is wildly unrealistic and expecting ridiculously too much.
God, yeah, I hate when I have like a really thought out question that I don't get to ask because some kid wants to ask these pretty obvious questions. Every con panel contains 90% of these questions.
I love when ProzD just, shatters our perception by how real he is.

Much love man, that just killed me though.
Really appreciate the honesty and self awareness re: The power dynamics of studios and their effect on interview questions. Glad you've got your dream job. ✨
He’s really cool about answering the most common questions. Especially when 90% of the questions are simply to hear the person fumble for the answer you already knew they’d say.
@Olmis isu riko

“I’m frugal”
He says with several not-cheap figures behind him. I’m just poking fun, but I do find that a little funny.
exact same thought lol
He has to be frugal with everything else to afford those figures, lol.
You're one of my favorite voice actors and have been a real inspiration (and very informative) to me. There's a handful of actors I will watch content entirely because I find out they're in it, and you're one of them. Keep being awesome.
This has “WHAT ART PROGRAM DO YOU USE?? WHAT MIC?? ANIMATION SOFTWARE??” Vibes
I'm surprised one of the questions wasn't "What song do you use in the background of your videos?"
"can you draw me?"
"what brushes do u use?"
It's not just you who doesn't have "laugh-and-a-half" sessions every day all the time in the booth. You do the work, and the satisfaction comes from finally nailing a scene after working on it for awhile. Sometimes you shoot the shit with the director before or after if you know them well, but not all the time.
I do appreciate you saying that it's okay to say hello. Sometimes I get starstruck when I see actors or artists that I really love and respect, and knowing that it doesn't bother you to have casual greetings with fans can make someone like me who can have anxiety issues feel a lot more comfortable at least saying hi. ♥
Bro knowing you’re going to be in more things gets me so hyped. I love the roles you play (my favorite is the Jaguar/cheetah in Aggretsuko) and it’s great to know your career is blowing up. Keep it up man! We’re rooting for you!

Love this Q & A video
I'm sure it doesn't help the perception for working V/O people when Disney/Dreamworks/etc. releases these promotional behind-the-scenes featurettes of their latest release showing the stunt-casted Hollywood celebs in the voiceover booth being all over-the-top and laughing.
I feel like a good answer to the whole "Are you working on anything you haven't talked about?" question would be:
"I currently have of NDAs."
That's kind of a fun answer to give that doesn't specify anything, intrinsically suggests why you can't say anything about them, and also gives the viewer an amusing tidbit of knowledge.
I did not know it was you who voiced Zeus in Apotheon! I enjoyed that game so much, thank you for being part of it!
I like how he starts of the video with the 'i am cheap' part with all that stuff in the background
"I have a frugal nature."
Spoken in front of towering shelves of anime figurines, and after having done a literal caviar tasting in excess of 1,000 dollars.
Sure, bud.
Considering this, to see how rich he is
it's called a hobby. most sane people have a budget for it. also, you don't know he paid for everything. i'm sure some were gifts from friends, fans, studios he's worked with, etc.
@@topasu9454 Portion of them are gifts for sure. But, he still has spent a bunch of money on his collections. Plus for his type of work and youtube videos, you need to spend money to make money. But, at the end of the day, we spend money on what we consider more important. For him, headphones are headphones, if it does the job and I can get it for cheap, buy it. Spend the left over money on stuff I want.
