My Favorite Moment of 2024

Wow, what an incredible year it's been! My absolute favorite moment from 2024 has to be the unforgettable experience of attending Washington State Summer Con and finally getting to meet some of the brilliant minds behind Helluva Boss. For any fan of animated series, there’s nothing quite like connecting with the voice actors who bring our favorite characters to life. It truly felt like a dream come true! The highlight for me was definitely getting a selfie with the legendary Richard Horvitz! Known for his iconic roles across so many beloved shows, including Moxxie in Helluva Boss, Zim in Invader Zim, and even parts in The Angry Beavers, his energy was infectious. For those wondering about 'Richard Horvitz summer school' or his convention appearances, seeing him at Summer Con was a fantastic opportunity. He’s such a charismatic person, and hearing him talk about his craft makes you appreciate the magic of voice acting even more. It's moments like these that make attending conventions so special. Speaking of voice talent, it’s amazing how many actors lend their voices to multiple universes. While I didn't get to meet Erica Lindbeck this time, who voices Loona in Helluva Boss and also contributes to Hazbin Hotel, the convention still offered a glimpse into this interconnected world. Many fans, like myself, often wonder about the 'Hazbin Hotel Loud House' or 'The Loud House Helluva Boss' connections. While there isn't a direct crossover, the animation industry is a close-knit community. Voice actors frequently work on various projects, and it wouldn't be surprising to find talent from The Loud House also voicing characters in the adult animation scene like Helluva Boss or Hazbin Hotel. Conventions are perfect for discovering these surprising links and appreciating the versatility of these artists. Beyond Richard Horvitz, I was also thrilled to grab selfies with Vivian Nixon Williams, who voices Millie, and the hilarious Brandon Rogers, known for his work as Blitzo. Each interaction was unique – from a playful puckered-lip face with one actor to a funny, growling face and flexed arm with another. Seeing them engage with fans, sign merchandise, and share behind-the-scenes stories makes you feel even more connected to the shows you love. The bustling convention hall at Washington State Summer Con was electric, filled with fellow fans, artists, and creators. It’s an inspiring environment that celebrates creativity and fandom. If you're a fan of these shows or just curious about the voice acting world, I highly recommend checking out local comic cons or summer conventions. Keep an eye out for guest lists – you might just find your favorite voice actor there! It’s a fantastic way to immerse yourself in the community and create your own unforgettable memories. Don't miss the chance to experience the magic firsthand!
