Those were big dinosaurs.
-
That was a very big dinosaur.
-
Hey, I'm Dee Bra-
-
Take two.
-
Hey, I am Dee Bradley Baker.
-
I'm a voice actor, whose known for doing creatures, monsters, and animal sounds in a lot of Hollywood projects.
-
My first break probably in voice acting would be a Nickelodeon game show called "Legends of the Hidden Temple."
-
"Legends of the Hidden Temple with your guide Kirk Fogg."
-
I got to do lots of different voices as this big rock God Olmec.
-
I moved his mouth and spoke.
-
"It's my temple."
-
That was kind of my first gig where it became clear to me that I think I wanna do something like this.
-
How about some birds?
-
Let's see, turkey?
-
When I close off my nose it gives a resonance to it that makes it feel bigger.
-
For instance, like that.
-
Or...
-
It's almost like closing off valves on a wind instrument, is how I think of it.
-
All right, we can wrap it up.
-
I work on all kinds of different fun shows.
-
Some of my notable characters might be, Klaus on American Dad.
-
Hello, Francine, I'm ready for my fish feeding now.
-
I was Daffy Duck in Space Jam.
-
All right bub, oy, let's make fun of the duck.
-
Perry the Platypus in Phineas and Ferb.
-
A lot of characters in SpongeBob.
-
Squilliam Fancyson and Perch Perkins Action News.
-
And maybe a cop fish.
-
There's a fly.
-
Help me.
-
I'll get you my pretty.
-
Where was I?
-
That's a dead fly.
-
See, if there's anybody else that's alive in here.
-
Now, I'm really into taking pictures of bugs and small critters.
-
It's a little ant line, I think it's eating like aphids off there.
-
Bugs are like alien robots, there just, their amazing.
-
And they have such power and such intelligence and such beauty in their design.
-
And all of these things I find useful to have within me for when I'm creating vocal creations.
-
Here, look at that ant.
-
Isn't that beautiful?
-
Watching biology documentaries, the Nature series, Planet Earth series.
-
I mean those give me all kinds of specific ideas in terms of sounds.
-
Okay, ready?
-
Ten year old Dee would be impressed that middle aged Dee is doing creatures and monster sounds because I loved animals and creatures, and it looked like a lot of fun.
-
What do you mean?
-
I want to put things out into the world that make the world better and show how interesting and good it is.
