Hello Karim,
eventually you will go onto Fan Conventions. Have your costars given any words of advice how to navigate real world fan interactions?
Please ask Robert Picardo about his experience at Dragon Con. Had a great chat with him about his voice work when I met him. Would love to have you come someday and hang at the Pulse Bar!!!!
Hi Karim, and thanks for the AMA!
As your character is a healer and a now a medical student, how much preparation you have had to do about health, medicine and the experiences of medical school to give depth to the role, aside from the series own technical lore?
hello Karim,
saw the videos of your voice training Its amazing seeing you comfortably hit the lower registers.
If asked by the show runners to do a song, what would you sing in its original Klingon version?
(I hope its Crash Test Dummies. "Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm" would love to hear you do a cover of it Klingon or English!!!)
Hi, Karim! I just watched the latest episode and I adored it. I can’t wait to see where Jay-Den goes with Kyle and Darem. If it’s something you can talk about will these three end up together romantically? Definitely picked up on some of the subtext with episode 7 and I’m absolutely loving it! Thank you!
How do you and your co-stars stay entertained during downtime on set?
Weirdly, I just thought about how odd it seemed that the fediverse didn't have an AMA community and boom, inside 24-hours, here's this post! Very rad seeing this and now I'll have to add another show to my watch list!
- Have you been on the fediverse before this account and AMA post?
- If so what flavor of Linux do you run? :P
Seriously, even if you don't see or answer these questions, it's super cool you're doing this and I'm glad one of the first on the platform is for Star Trek!
Is this Lemmy's first celebrity AMA?
i feel it may be
Do you like cats?
Finally, someone asked the most important question for the fediverse!
Welcome to a deeply weird community!
If you were going to spend a day as a member of a Star Trek crew (other than your current show), which would you choose, and why? Assume it's going to be a normal and pleasant day, not one of the exceptionally horrifying days where everyone gets space parasites or some such.
Don't misunderstand me, I'm incredibly excited that you're doing this AMA on the 'verse, but I'm curious why you chose this over reddit?
also: Are you going to play the voyager game that was released today?
Maybe they don't want ICE to know their location :P
Amazing to see this!
What's your favourite Star Trek (can't say Starfleet Academy)and how did you end up here?
Hey Karim! Thank you for your work on SFA, really enjoying the show!
Star Trek has done a bunch of genre-bending episodes (mostly on the holodeck), like noir-type crime stories, medieval costume dramas, or western adventures. If you could chose: What genre/setting would you like to put Jay-Den into?
Hey Karim, thanks for doing this. Really like your acting. I wanted to ask how did the name "Jay-Den" came to be? It sounds distinctively not Klingon and I assume meant to sound like a US American name which seems out of place.
If you could choose to play a character from the original series, who would it be?
Thanks for doing this, so cool!
Hi Karim, nice to have you here.
Do you think, that given the current state of our world, the 32. century is more accessible than the 24. century, since society has to rebuild after the burn and seems to have lost some of its previous values along the way?
Hi Karim! It's amazing to have you here answering our questions! You interact so much with the fans, and it's amazing to see a community be created in real time through your interactions with us. I'm loving your preformance as Jay-Den, cementing him as one of my favorite Trek characters of all time. I've got a serious and a silly question!
- Jay-Den breaks some serious barriers in his character arc. How similar are you to Jay-Den at the core, and is there anything from your own life that you translated into Jay-Den?
- If you were in the Star Trek universe, what would your position in Starfleet be? Would you choose to be in Starfleet, or pick to explore something else? Basically, tell us about your Star Trek self-insert character, if you've thought of one! Thanks so much for reading and answering our questions! Can't wait for next week's episode too!! LLAP!
How did Jay-Den voice came to be? did you pull from any specific reference? also, is his voice modified in post? it has a very unique feeling
Great question! About the same, I would love to know about the care you have to do to deal with the extra strain in your voice, and what advice you have received about it.
Cool! Didn't know about this new show. Defenitely will watch it.
Loving Academy, long may it continue.
Do you have any power to get us a series, and I’ll take a mini-series, with Seven of Nine as Captain and Raffi as Number Two? If not, do you know who does and do you have any dirt on them?
yoooo, a celebrity on the fediverse? let's goooooo
Not really a question, more of an observation: timezones exist 😛
Not to the American East Coast😅(I added a sticky comment clarifying)
