About Bard Nolan

If you're pro-generative AI in any way, close this tab. I am not interested in working with people who support and/or use generative AI software.

✧˖°. ₊˚⊹♡

32, he/they, Pan nonbinary transman. Autistic + ADHD + Depression + Disabled (cardiovascular condition) - for people looking to cast diverse actors with authentic lived experiences. I've been on/off HRT since I was 22 (for insurance accessibility reasons) with a high-pitched voice when pre-t, so my natural voice now is in the medium-to-high range with androgynous and masculine qualities.

Voice Acting Credits:
  • Supreme Leader Snoke in "The Trials of Ren", a stage show performed by Kamino Temple of Saber Guild (formerly known as Jet City Saber Guild) at the 2016 WA State Fair. You can watch the video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mRX9BOooZHA

Music Performances:
  • Solo Vocalist at the 2017 "Do Androids Dream of Living Computers" event hosted at the Living Computers + Labs. (It's from "backstage" but you can watch a video here: https://youtu.be/aaXKXOXgCnI )

For more examples of my singing voice, you can go here: https://soundcloud.com/kirkduplicate - but please be aware that these are not polished recordings and performances nor are they intended to be. I did these more to record my progress as my voice changed on T, and as a result I would pick a song, practice it a couple of times, and then record it. These were a low-pressure personal project and I am not a professional guitarist so they are not perfect in that regard (but, if I may toot my own horn, they still sound pretty good).

Pricing

I am open to various projects at a negotiable rate or in a volunteer capacity if it ticks a few of the boxes below.

What Bard Nolan is looking for

I love a wide variety of genres and media so I'm open to checking out and being a part of a lot of different things, but here are some more specific criteria for projects I'd love to be a part of:


  • LGBTQIA+-run or -inclusive projects

  • Music/Musicals

  • Original projects preferred

  • Horror (especially gothic horror, supernatural horror, or body horror)

  • Fantasy (I love fun, whimsical low-fantasy stuff especially, like Shrek)

  • Sci-fi (this is such a broad genre but I love a space epic (star wars) as much as I love something more gritty and grounded (blade runner))

  • Cyberpunk (to stem off a more specific aspect of sci-fi from above)

  • Visual Novels and/or Dating Sims, especially if there are queer options/characters

  • Genre-mixing projects (Horror fantasy, sci-fi horror, sci-fi fantasy, fantasy romance, horror romance fantasy (eyes emoji at Touchstarved, for example) etc.)

  • Open to 18+ and NSFW projects

I prefer not to do roles that involve voice matching other VAs or impressions! I also refuse to work on projects with generative AI usage in any form, whether that's in character art, models, promotional materials, voice acting for previous versions of a project and/or its promotional materials, etc.
