Seth Green Talks Voiceover Work, Family Guy

More random, digital-age brush-clearing, this time in the form of Seth Green‘s thoughts on voiceover work in general and Family Guy specifically. “I put the same type of intent and emotion behind anything I’m performing, whether it’s comedy or drama, or on-camera or voiceover,” says Green. “I find that the sincerity of performance is recognizable especially in voiceover, where you really only have your voice to rely on. So the more truthful I can be, the potentially funnier it will be.”

“I have no idea what’s going on Family Guy, though, I don’t read the scripts,” he continues. “This is the greatest job I’ve ever had, simply because I don’t have to read the material in advance. I can go into the booth, with (Seth) McFarlane on the other side of the glass, and say, ‘What’s going on here?’ And then I get to watch the show as a fan, and have no idea what’s happening. It’s just so funny to watch that way. Family Guy is a job that I thank God for all the time. I can’t believe how lucky I am, because I actually love that show. When I first read the pilot script I hoped and wished that I could get that job, because it was something that I wanted to be a part of.”
