Camilla's New Voice

Camilla Parker is no longer voiced by Syndey S., but Michaela Dean. I don't know why, but boy, do I hate it. :(

Thoughts?

She sounds pretty darn similar to me... I don't know that I would have noticed, had you not brought this to my attention. :shrugs:

....o.O They sound like, 10 years apart. Camilla went from sounding like a young girl, to a teenager, and now she's gonna sound like a toddler... >_>

I think she sounds good to me. I mean, it sounds like they picked a good match. She will sound like a toddler if the writers don't give her good dialog though. >_> I actually never liked Camilla anyway. I think it was mostly because of the original actor. Camilla just always sounded like a brat, in my opinion.

I guess the writer's want to keep her character young for now.

This new actress sounds like a cool person, so I'm hopeful about it.

Till the end of the line.

I was never really fond of Camilla, to be honest, so I don't really care :P But I can understand why they got a new girl to voice her. In The Holy Hoopster, Camilla was starting to sound a bit old. AIO probably wants to keep her character without her starting to sound older than Olivia.

Aww, guys, she sounds absolutely adorable. :inlove: I wasn't a big fan of Camilla's previous voice, so I'm excited to see how this actress does. \:D/

People can also quit jobs too... AIO probably did not make Sydney leave. But what do I know. I think Micheala at least sounds 11.

She's adorable, I don't have anything against her. And if they had picked her originally, well, that would have been one thing. But, I just can't stand such a drastic change. Gah. :x

Sorry, I am too OCD with voice changes. :P

Since Album 51 Camilla, Olivia, Vance, and Brad have all changed voices...

I was miffed by this. I'm surprised that no one has mentioned that the new actress played Joy in Child's Play. I like her voice a lot, but she doesn't have that tomboyish sound to her voice like Sydney has.

Michaela's voice sounds different, but I'll reserve judgement until I hear her in an entire episode...so, tomorrow! She may have the talent to sound more like Camilla when she's acting, not just chatting in an interview.

I just listened to the new episode with Michaeala in it, and I thought she did a great job. I was never incredibly fond of the original actresses' voice for Camilla, so I don't mind the change, and I do like Michaela's acting. It is a stark contrast, though, to compare Camilla in The Holy Hoopster to Your Servant Is Listening.

I'm never too fond of change, because it always seems like it changes the personality of the character, but I have to admit, I think I technically like this voice better. It's only lesser because it is not original. If this voice was first, and Sydney's came later, I think I'd have been a lot more upset with that change.

Yep. Using my signature for a shameless plug. But trust me. If I can be so arrogant, I think it'll be worth your time.
