Nick Apostolides | Trust Your Instincts, Find Your Flame, & Take The Leap

Saison 2 · Épisode 10

mardi 11 août 2026 • Durée 01:48:52

Nick Apostolides didn't plan on becoming an actor.

He grew up building with Legos and Lincoln Logs, learned carpentry from his dad, and by 24 had a comfortable job as a concierge at a four star hotel in Boston. But guests kept asking him the same thing, forty or fifty times over: are you an actor? He lives by a saying, if three strangers tell you something, that's the universe nudging you. So he took the nudge.

From no budget student films in Boston, where nobody could afford a stunt coordinator so he learned to do it himself, to playing Leon Kennedy across Resident Evil 2, Resident Evil 4, Infinite Darkness, and now Requiem, plus Togusa in The Ghost in the Shell, Nick has built a career on trusting his gut and leading with gratitude.

In this episode, we talk about the audition he lived and breathed for two weeks, how to find the truth in an empty volume, and the night he passed out in the VO booth and Capcom liked the take so much they put it in the game. Nick also shares what he calls finding your flame, and why he showed up with Oreos.

Please enjoy.

Gideon Emery | Building A Craft Across Countries & Being A Good Human

Saison 2 · Épisode 7

mardi 9 juin 2026 • Durée 01:33:53

Gideon Emery joins us for the Season 2 premiere of The Actors Volume.

Born in England and raised largely in Johannesburg, Gideon spent years building a life in the work before moving to LA. He trained in theater, worked professionally in South Africa for a decade, and eventually found his way into voiceover, video games, and performance capture.

This conversation is about the long game.

We talk about growing up between cultures, choosing drama school, building a career before changing markets, and what it means to keep adapting without losing the foundation of your craft.

Gideon shares why performance capture felt like theater when he first stepped into it, why he sees it as one of the most challenging forms of performance, and how acceptance sits at the center of his work.

We also get into voiceover, character, BD-1, the infamous nose whistle, and the strange, specific alchemy of bringing emotional life to something that technically only beeps.

No shortcuts in this one. Just craft, patience, and the slow work of finding where you belong.

Please enjoy.

Now streaming on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, YouTube, and wherever you get your podcasts.

Captured at Rouge Studios.

Zach Mendez | Risk, Gratitude, & Finding Your Fun

Saison 1 · Épisode 6

mardi 29 juillet 2025 • Durée 01:03:49

Somewhere between teaching math in Miami and doing student films off Craigslist, this week’s guest, Zach Mendez, realized he wasn’t going back to a traditional career.

He just wasn’t built for it.

What followed wasn’t a clear plan, filled with stand-up gigs, improv classes, sketch comedy, philosophy books, long stretches of doubt, and a few lucky breaks.

Now he’s working in AAA games, bringing real humanity into roles that live inside the most fantastical worlds.

In this episode, Zach talks about the shift that changed everything:

Not trying to win.

Not trying to impress.

Just showing up, telling the truth, and having fun.

This one’s for anyone who’s realizing that there’s no “right” way to build a career.

Zach’s episode is out now.

Matthew Brezina | Pursuing Passion & Embracing Challenges

Saison 1 · Épisode 5

mardi 15 juillet 2025 • Durée 01:18:38

Matthew Brezina didn’t take a traditional path into performance capture.

He studied politics. Fell into acting. Picked up martial arts. Shot indie films with friends. And somewhere along the way, realized he wanted to build a career that brought all of it together.

Today, he’s a producer and AD on some of the most technically demanding PCAP shoots in the industry, and a co-founder of The Actors Volume.

In this episode, Matthew reflects on what it means to grow in the middle of the work. We talk about early pivots, tough calls, leadership on set, and how community keeps you grounded when the pressure kicks in.

It’s about learning on your feet, staying open, and building something that actually fits who you are.

Please enjoy.

Richard Dorton | A Lifetime In Motion Capture & Making Dreams Come True

Saison 1 · Épisode 4

mardi 1 juillet 2025 • Durée 01:16:36

Richard Dorton didn’t grow up thinking performance was where he’d land. He was a mixed Asian American kid in D.C., drawn to monsters, makeup, and movement. But something kept pulling him toward the industry and he kept finding ways in.

He managed a costume shop in D.C., studied stage makeup, and launched his own SFX company, Gore-tastic, so he could bring his love of horror to life.

Eventually, he stepped into the suit himself…and something clicked.

In this episode of The Actors Volume, Richard shares how that first mocap job opened a door he never expected.

Since then, he’s performed in hundreds of games and brought characters like Darth Vader, Kratos, and Wolverine to life.

We talk about the grind, the pivot points, and the moments that nearly broke him.

We also dive into what kept him going and why collaboration is still at the center of the work.

Please enjoy.

Now streaming on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and YouTube.

Jeff Berg | Acting, Fatherhood, & Being Authentic

Saison 1 · Épisode 3

mardi 17 juin 2025 • Durée 01:05:12

Jeff Berg didn’t grow up thinking acting was a real option. He was raised in a small town in Canada, far from soundstages or casting offices, but something kept pulling him toward the work.

In this episode, we trace that path. From theater school in New York to indie film, and eventually to the world of performance capture, where he found a kind of creative freedom that stuck.

Jeff talks about what shifted when he stopped chasing approval and started trusting his instincts.

We get into coaching, collaboration, warmups on set, and why presence matters more than polish. He also shares how becoming a father changed the way he works and the kind of artist he’s becoming.

Please enjoy.

Emily Schweber | Following Art, Discovering Talent, & Being Kind

Saison 1 · Épisode 2

mardi 3 juin 2025 • Durée 01:08:14

Emily Schweber didn’t plan on working in casting. She studied printmaking, worked in a darkroom, and thought her path would stay in the art world. But one night, sitting at a dinner table as a friend reviewed audition tapes, something clicked: People do this? This is a job?

That moment quietly sparked a career. From flipping through headshots as an unpaid assistant to casting Titanic, The Matrix, and eventually shaping performances in games like Mirror’s Edge Catalyst and Dragon Age: The Veilguard, Emily has built a body of work defined by instinct, care, and real connection.

In this episode, we talk about what makes an audition land, how the industry has shifted post-pandemic, and why generosity still matters in this business. Emily also shares how she’s creating space for actors to ask questions, build relationships, and keep doing the work with heart.

Please enjoy.

mardi 20 mai 2025 • Durée 01:48:36

Jee Young Han didn’t set out to work in performance capture. But from drama club to New York, from working behind the scenes to starring in Dragon Age, her path has been anything but straight.

And that’s what makes it hers.

In this episode, we talk about burnout, booking, and what it takes to stay grounded in an industry that can mess with your head.

Jee shares how community, not networking, has been her way through, and why learning the rules before breaking them gave her room to really play.

Please enjoy!
