If you're self-conscious, audition for American projects seeking a British accent. Their usual evaluation will likely be along the lines of "Yup. That's a British accent! Probably." Mind you, this will probably also be their evaluation if you're from New Zealand. XD Sorry it took me a while to reply, it's been a bit hectic with work and college the past couple of days. And I think I'll probably do that =) It'll be good practice if I have to end up voicing any of the characters from my own project as well (seriously, I've had at least 10 auditions sent in for my male characters, and 0 for my female characters, is that normal???)

Hey aduckiswatchingyou ! Always good to meet another northerner here. You should be proud of your accent! I'm from the Teesside area in the north east, so I'm certainly far from RP. If you ever fancy trying your hand at VA you should just audition for every British role you fancy, even if you think they're looking for a typical posh accent. People sometimes overlook the accent if your delivery catches their attention, and if not - sod them. Are you a Cumberland or Northumberland lass? ~Edit~ Also the link to your Google+ account seems to be broken. I'm from around Cheshire, so not super far North, but even further from the South/midlands =) And I think I'm going to do that, and the ones that specify 'no accent' because really, they should be more specific =P And it is? I know very little about anything technology-ish, but I'll take a look, thanks for pointing it out =) And sorry it took so long to reply, I've been pretty busy recently =/

Re: the auditions thing - the boards aren't quiiite open to the general public yet. It'll prolly even out a little more when Kira makes the announcements, cuts the ribbons, and gets the ball rolling on this place. = )

That's a relief =) I have 4 female and 3 male characters, so you can probably see why I was worried =P
