Hello, my name is Carles and I am a dubbing actor from Valencia forced to reinvent himself and not die trying. I started working as a voice actor and announcer in 2006 after taking several courses and when things got interesting, some politicians, poor management and very bad luck “forced” me to open other fronts». his own biographical description: passionate about the world of acting that he found on YouTube a way to get your talent to the whole world.
Now with more than 600,000 subscribers on his YouTube channel, Carlos has become Korah, the voice that manages to get more than one (and two) smiles from those who watch his videos. To learn a little more about his way of understanding the profession, and his future plans, we have spoken with him.
Interview with Carles Caparrós (Korah Channel)
How did you decide to start with the channel? What was that moment like when you thought “I want to dedicate myself to this”?
I worked a lot for Channel9 and back in 2012 things began to falter, so much so that it ended up closing. At that time I consumed a lot of YouTube (gameplays) and I thought “I want to do this too”
Did you imagine when you started that you would get to reach 600,000 followers?
No, you never imagine a specific figure, but as you progress you see that it is realistic to get more and more
How long does it take to make one of your videos? What inspires you to make them?
Depends. Dubbing takes a week or several to get ready. You have to have the idea, write the script, look for the images, edit it, dub it and edit it. I dedicate time to it at times, not all day. The reflections less, what it costs me to write the script and record it.
You are not just a youtuber. You have made a wide variety of content for many brands. What do you feel most comfortable with?
I’m a voice actor and announcer and I feel more and more comfortable on YouTube.
A large number of actors affirm that it is much more difficult to make them laugh than to cry… Do you agree?
I have never thought about it. I only dedicate myself to make you laugh and think. I’ve never considered making people cry so I haven’t experienced that process of “creating something to cry about”. Making people laugh is not difficult as such, you just have to find the person who laughs with the same thing you laugh with 🙂
Have you ever thought about quitting?
Not right now.
What other accounts do you follow? What kind of videos do you like to watch on YouTube?
It depends, I go to times. I never say a favorite Youtuber because at one time I see so-and-so a lot and then I abandon him completely and focus on another or others. I like to watch gameplays, reflections, vlogs, humour… everything.
What advice would you give someone who is considering opening their own YouTube channel? What is the main thing they should (and shouldn’t) do?
Do it for him, for his experience, to learn, experiment and above all enjoy. At least in the beginning. Then everything else comes and that happens by “professionalizing it”. But if before there is no process of finding yourself comfortable, failing, learning, getting it right, trying, enjoying… it is not possible.
Imagine that we take out the crystal ball: how do you imagine YouTube will change in the coming years?
There will be competition and that makes me happy. YouTube has had (has) the monopoly platform for monetizable videos for better and for worse. I imagine a YouTube without me, but I don’t want to be on YouTube for many more years. I want to do other things.
