Holly Dodd

Notes

I’m Aussie–Kiwi by background, with a natural Australian accent, but I can switch to a flawless American or British accent whenever needed. I was diagnosed and beat breast cancer in 2024/2025, and I'm passionate about telling women's stories and promoting women's health. I speak conversational Japanese and have a big passion for voice acting, especially in Japanese anime. I’m even sitting the JLPT N5 exam this year because I’d love to act in Japanese film and TV one day! I had a supporting role in the upcoming feature film How To Talk To Australians: Highway To Hell!—keep an eye out for it under Umbrella Entertainment, directed by Tony Rogers. I also created a web series called RedFlag, which did well at both Australian and international festivals! By day (Monday to Friday), I’m a video producer and absolutely love everything about film and TV production. It’s where I feel right at home.  - Breast Cancer Survivor 24/25 (Diagnosed Jan 2024). - Breast cancer awareness advocate for young women. - Japanese Language Learner (Intermediate - can read, write & hold a casual conversation) Sitting my JLPT N5 exam in 2025. - Strong interest in wanting to voice Japanese Anime & act in Japanese film and tv. - Manual Driver's License. - Helicopter traffic reporter in the past.
