Another Dom Interview 09 Nov, 2000, 19:16 / 3 comments


Another Interview with Dominic Armato has cropped up at Escapemi.com. Domic Armato is the talented voice actor of Guybrush Threepwood (as everybody knows by now.. i wonder how many time i've explainded that..?) in the recently released Escape from Monkey Island - and Curse of MI. The theme of the interview is aimed to capture the working enviroment of an actor working with an adventure company.
EMI.com: Have you ever suggested changing something Guybrush says?

Dom: On a few occasions, but in general we try to stick to the script as much as possible. It's a real pain for the folks on the other end when we arbitrarily change lines, so we'll only do alternates if some line just really isn't working for some reason, or if we have a particularly brilliant inspiration. For the most part, though, this isn't an issue. LEC's writers tend to be awfully good :-)

    Dom always has the same stuff to say... oh i would love to make the voice for the first 2 games, little input from me its all scripted, this guy has no inside information, just some nerdy voice lec decided to use for a great character.

    What's the big deal about this guy? He does a terrible job as Guybrush. Besides, how bad an actor does he have to be, that a voiceover for a computer game is like the highlight of his career?
