I’m pleased to announce that I will co-hosting the Cartoon Voices panels on both Saturday and Sunday with the omnipresent Mark Evanier. Mark has graciously asked me to assist him in grilling… er, interviewing the two fine panels of professional voice artists. Here are the current line-ups, but at least one person is likely to switch days before this is set in concrete:

Saturday, NOON - 1:15 PM / Room 6B
CARTOON VOICE ACTORS I
A demonstration of the fine art of speaking for animated characters…with NEIL ROSS (G.I. Joe), ROB PAULSEN (Pinky and the Brain), WALLY WINGERT (Invader Zim), KATHY GARVER (Spider-Man), WILL RYAN (Disney), CHRIS EDGERLY (Harvey Birdman) and JOE ALASKEY (Duck Dodgers).

Sunday, NOON - 1:15 PM / Room 6B
CARTOON VOICE ACTORS II
Another demonstration of the fine art of speaking for animated characters…with TOM KENNY (SpongeBob SquarePants), MICHAEL BELL (Rugrats), APRIL STEWART (South Park), GREGG BERGER (Transformers), and MAURICE LaMARCHE (Pinky and the Brain).

Our fine cast will also be performing a cold reading of a famous radio script as a demonstration of their talents and versatility. A “cold reading” is an industry term for a first reading. In other words, when they read the script out loud for the audience, it will be the first time they’ve even seen it. If you’re attending the Con, these are must-see panels!
