I have often wondered how much of someone's actual voice leaks through into their impersonations in a way that can be detected.
I just saw an incredible Facebook reel of a voice actor, Shelby Young, saying the same thing in a striking range of theatrical voices, and I still wonder. How much of her true vocal fingerprint is unavoidably there?

(As a fan of old movies, "Vintage" was particularly impressive to me -- she is impersonating not just voices but also the choice of tonality those actors made in light of recording technology)
- chungy 2y agoI'm usually able to identify most of the big VAs regardless of the disguise they're putting into their voice. Dan Castellenta, Jon Lovitz, Maurice LaMarche, Rob Paulsen, Jim Cummings all come to mind as ones I've correctly identified in various productions. The list is larger I'm sure. An AI might be able to gain a higher success rate than me.
