What helps me do voice impressions is that I observe the voice and listen to it until I can replicate that voice. Once I did a classmates voice by accident when I was 7 since I heard it so much.

Great series, I don’t aspire to be a professional it is just a cool skill to have like playing the guitar... also a great icebreaker for conversations and is great and easy entertainment for friends and family (and myself)

I think about how our own voices develop, from the manner we speak and our accent. It changes over time. I think it's the same with impressions. You begin to talk like the one you're impersonating and over time your vocal cords can adapt and work just like theirs does.

Love your Jessie Pinkman impression

My friends and I sit and have conversations with impressions, and my family always said that I have a good talent. So I’m good from that part😂. But there are impressions that I know I can do more but I always thought it’s based on someone’s voice of how low or high they can go. So I guess it’s really matter of muscle memory and practice and not just vocals …

Some voices I can pick up and mimic immediately, some take time, and some are just impossible for me to even gain a basic grasp on.

BRO my sister legit tryna sell me cause my Elmo and Hank Hill voices 😂

Perfect. I won't sound weird while talking to myself now.

I will say, I am auditory dyslexic. So, I have to overly process when people speak just so I can understand them. So, sometimes the ability comes through struggle. It's often easier in my brain to recite a line by mimicking the voice and cadence of who I heard it from. Obviously has caused work related issues where I mimic my boss, back to my boss to confirm what he said... lol

Charlie Hopkinson as I recall is was a matter of degree, and emphasis on personal quirks to get laughs. An impersonator could “do” Burt Lancaster; an impressionist will “out Burt Lancaster” Burt Lancaster. I’m sure there’s overlap. Rich Little as Nixon could be either I guess but that’s Nixon. Really like your video.

The whole your voice sounds different to you thing is something I've known about for a while. But something I have never realized is what that means for impressionists. You get to hear what Morgan Freeman hears when he speaks. That seems so strange to me.

yaaay oh man, this is already looking well organized. As for impressions i would recommend starting off with one that isn't a lower voice like morgan freeman or something too high, rather a pitch most people will find it easier to get to - to start off with - as then it's one fewer task we have to do. Maybe even Jesse Pinkman? If you feel it is one of your stronger impressions, which I think it is. Someone of that pitch, not too low or too high.
