Questions for upcoming guests - Matt Mercer & Gotham Knights writers!

For Matt, What IP property you have worked on do you feel didn't get the recognition it deserved? For the Gotham Knights: Are there any Batman characters you wanted to include but had to cut? What was the decision process?

For the Gotham writers: How did you approach writing a story for four heroes? Did you try to ensure no single hero gets too much limelight?

Jem

Question for Matt Mercer. Love you on GuestGrumps especially the ones when you talk about your early work on Pryzm. If you could collaborate with either of the GameGrumps more who would it be and why is it Dan?

Drew Torres

For the Gotham Knights writers; were their any characters you were particularly excited to get delve into, and how was it getting the chance to put your version into the world? Were there any characters you wanted to include but couldn't get approval or make work?

Wow Matt is popular! My question is for the Gotham writers however. Did Warner Brothers have strict guidelines for characters and plots, and how much oversight did they impose on the project?

Chris Kirchoff

For Matt Mercer: Have you ever worked with a voice director, or otherwise, that used one or more of your Critical Role characters as a reference for the kind of voice they want you to do?

Albin

For Matt Mercer: Are there any characters, whether they be from a video game or his DMing on Critical Role, that he ever finds himself going back into in his own internal dialogue?

For Matt: 1) Is it necessary / required to be in a union + represented + have a super-duper-professional demo to get into video game / animation VO or would a DIY Demo be accepted? 2) In his opinion, is it ok to pursue Narration / Audiobook work or would that lead to a sort of 'typecast' situation and limit your options in other fields? Sorry if the questions are dumb. I'm not at all familiar with the industry but genuinely interested in the career. Probably the closest opportunity I'll get to pick Matthew's brain so Thanks, Alanah, for the opportunity!

Flying Buttress

For Matt Mercer: 1) Is it hard to find time for VO-work and also get some time off / with friends and family now that C3 of Critical Role is going at full speed? 2) What is his recommendation to keep a managble work/life-balance when being busy with so many projects? Is it possible?

Jon Karmesjö Åberg

For Matt, how can someone get into voice acting? Is a degree necessary/recommended? For the writers, how do you tackle integrating and interweaving so many storylines into a singular project, vs writing one linear story?

LazyOwl

For Matt Mercer: how does he practice his (so many) voices ? For Gotham Knight's writers: how did they approach that project ?
