There was a time when all the actors were saying, 'We should get residuals on videogames.' I just kept going, 'You don't have any idea what goes into making a game, do you?' Nolan North actorgameidea Change image and share on social
I know a lot of games have been going to the facial capture. And movies like 'TinTin' are using it, as well. Nolan North capturefacialgame Change image and share on social
I revel in my anonymity. But when I'm at a specific event and gamers are there, they'll recognise me. Nolan North anonymityeventgamer Change image and share on social
The really best acting is children in a playground or in a backyard. They're just lost in their imagination. The backyard isn't a pirate ship or a jungle, in the same way that the soundstage isn't Shambala. Nolan North actbackyardchild share on social
I eventually became an actor, starting with doing stand-up comedy in New York and then theater wherever they would let me. Finally, I moved out here to Los Angeles and got on a show. Nolan North actorangelescomedy Change image and share on social
I don't think there's room in video games for people to bring an ego. It's very frustrating for any actor to have someone who's a celebrity take over your place. Like the 'Uncharted' film, they're trying to find someone to play Nathan Drake. And it's like, why do they not think of us? We do this. Nolan North actorbringcelebrity share on social
One thing that's unique to 'Uncharted' is something called 'chasing picture,' where Naughty Dog run a section of gameplay and I'm allowed to ad-lib over it. We call it 'panning for gold.' Nolan North allowcallchase Change image and share on social
I studied journalism at The University of North Carolina - Chapel Hill. I did my graduate work at Emerson in Boston, and I was actually a reporter for a year in New York and New Jersey. It dawned on me that I wasn't cut out for that line of work. I mean... there's a certain thing that really good reports have that I just didn't. Nolan North bostoncarolinachapel share on social
There's something known as the Uncanny Valley where things look a little too real and you're not quite sure what you're looking at. It becomes weird like it did in 'The Polar Express,' where the eyes seem so realistic, and yet you know it's animated. Nolan North animateexpresseye share on social
Harrison Ford has always been one of my favorite actors. I grew up with Han Solo and Indiana Jones, and 'Regarding Henry' is one of my favorite movies of all time. Nolan North actorfavoriteford Change image and share on social
