Welcome to the second part of my interview with the award-winning voice actress, Cissy Jones! You may be familiar with her voice acting work on games like The Walking Dead, Life is Strange, Where the Water Tastes Like Wine, and Firewatch where she won a BAFTA award for her performance as Delilah! Cissy also works extensively in commercials and trailers.

In the previous episode, we discussed what inspired Cissy to become a voice actress in the first place! While she had always loved cartoons, she also found herself fascinated by every aspect of voice over and she fell in love with the voice over world. That passion inspired her to study as much as she could in order to improve her skills! Cissy and I also talked about what it was like for her to work on the game Firewatch and what she learned from her co-star, Madmen actor Rich Sommer.

As we draw our conversation to a close, I ask Cissy what advice she has for aspiring voice actors. I think you’ll find that what she has to say is very grounded and practical! She also speaks about how winning a BAFTA award affected her career. You may be surprised by her answer!
