Episode description

We're back with an exclusive interview with suit actor/mo-cap performer Mizuho Yoshida!  For this episode, Byrd traveled to Grand Rapids, Michigan and sat down with Mr. Yoshida for this career spanning interview.  Fans know Yoshida best for many iconic roles, including the GMK Godzilla, half of the Legion Queen in Gamera 2, Zeiram, Death Ghidorah and Dagarah in the Mothra films, and Solid Snake in the Metal Gear games.  We touch on his beginnings in suit acting, working with tokusatsu visionaries such as Keita Amemiya, Shusuke Kaneko, Shinji Higuchi, and Koichi Kawakita, the difficulties of being in the two person Legion suit, operating GMK Godzilla, motion capture performances, and more!
