Now for some good news. I may have told some of you that, aside from theater, I’ve been dubbing some foreign movies into English. Nothing huge like Star Wars or Tarzan, but some very (ahem) interesting films to say the least. Well, the company I’m working with may be getting the contracts to start work on some cartoon projects! Soooo cool. The first one is an animated version of Don Quixote of La Mancha which, as you may have guessed, is from here in Spain. Apparently the director and producer that I work with not only like me but they trust me too (foolish Spaniards) because they’ve asked me to both help with the dubbing AND with the translation. Someone has already translated the dialogue into English (very poorly) and now it’s my job to adjust the lines so it’d be understood and appreciated in the US and so the dialogue matches the video. This is fantastic. Not only are cartoons more fun to work with than the other stuff, but they pay more too! The other project that’s in the works is an original cartoon series called Scruff that a Catalan animation company would like to create for release in the States. I hope I hope I hope I get to do one of the voices on this one. Scruff has a little jumpy friend who’s a flea that I think I’d be perfect for. So between all the new stuff and continuing with those old projects, it doesn’t look like I’ll have to teach English next year like I did this past year. I’ll keep you posted.
