Dear Reader:
Zelda's voice actor discusses the pressure of voicing the iconic role
A portion of a SweetyHigh interview with Zelda voice actor, Patricia Summersett
SH: This is the first time Zelda has had full voice acting within a game. Did you feel a lot of pressure around that in creating the correct voice for her?
PS: It's been an interesting year having kept that as a secret, being part of this process privately and watching the hype around the game. I certainly did feel some pressure, but it was also a pressure that was filled with a deep excitement for what was to come.
There's also the understanding that everything I was doing was being approved by several people as it went through the process, so I'm at the place where I have to trust in my professional career that they're going to make the final decisions and we'll all be represented well. I do trust that, because it's Nintendo.
