Special Guest - Chico Anime & Pop Expo (CAP-EX)

SPECIAL GUEST

Sean Chiplock is a professional voiceover artist who has been quickly moving his way
further into the industry, voicing in projects across the board from video games, to
anime, to name-brand commercials, and even products from Disney-Pixar and
Nintendo. Some of his recent notable roles include Revali, Teba, and The Great Deku
Tree in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, Diluc in Genshin Impact, Rean
Schwarzer in the Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel series of games, and Subaru
Natsuki in RE:Zero (or even more recently Shiki Granbell in Eden’s Zero), with many
more TBA roles moving through the pipeline.
Sean’s intense energy and devotion to his performances stems from his equally vibrant
personality, and he enjoys talking to anyone about basically anything, whether it’s
providing insight into his progress as an actor or sharing slice-of-life moments from his
more interesting real-life adventures. A gamer at heart, he issues a calm but stern
challenge to any would-be Smash Bros. enthusiasts; as a consistent top- quality Mega
Man on the West Coast, he guarantees any willing rivals a hard battle to overcome.
When not tackling his freelance work, he often enjoys streaming games from his favorite
genres, dubbing the dialogue in real-time while sharing his passions for the worlds he
sometimes even gets to directly contribute to. He currently resides in sunny California,
battling traffic almost as often as he battles his animated rivals.
