Two years ago I received helpful and good feedback on my Sméagol/Gollum impression, so since then I've looked into other avenues of voice work. Below are a few examples of voice acting I whipped up today with some music and pictures thrown in. Nothing special and I'm certainly no Mark Hamill / Troy Baker, but I would really love to get into voice over work in the future.
Criticism and feedback welcome / appreciated.

Lacks the tonal depth of joker. Particularly how he shifts his pitch and tone a lot while he speaks.
I stopped a few seconds into the VA on the first video.

Well that's a little unfair. At least listen to them all. I'll admit the first is probably the worst.
I actually like it. If you are to work on anything, try and lower your deep lows and mids.
loads better than the awkward stuff others do, but not quite there
as said before, the tone shift is key.
I suggest studying Mark's joker laughs too, as he is a mad genius

each laugh is quite unique to themselves

I think the biggest issue though is that... you're simply too young sounding, and sound too clean
the joker usually seems to have a tone more distinctive amoungst much older people
haha dude you suck
oh dear.
Updated with a new video I recorded lastnight. Feedback greatly appreciated. Has the voice improved at all compared to March?
Still sounds nothing like the joker
Sounds more Roz from Monsters Inc than Hamill Joker
I personally think Patrick Girts does the best Mark Hamill impression.

No offence but it just sounds like you have a bit of a cold.
I like the older ones better personally. My inclination is that the Joker might simply be a voice impression unfitted to your voice. I know there are lots of impressions I would love to do, but they simply don't work with my range and pitch.
It's not super constructive criticism, but your voice just sounds kind of too forced. Probably related to a comment a bit above me about 99% smokers cough.
I don't see why you couldn't force a smokers voice, hell. People with some of the most baby sounding voices can imitate tom waits and he sounds like an ashtray.
I'd actually say that you're more versatile the cleaner your voice is.
June one sounds a really lot better than the other ones, keep up with the good feedback, you're on the right track.
I hope that this is just a tribute
