While Briana White did study acting and theater in college, she previously had little in the way of voice acting experience. In fact, she apparently didn’t even have a voice-over demo, which is crucial to help judge a potential actor’s range (check out the voice reels of actors like Matthew Mercer and SungWon Cho to get a feel for a reel’s importance). However, White did bring her experience playing a few other characters to Final Fantasy 7 Remake.
White appears in the Criminal Minds: Beyond Borders episode “Pretty Like Me” as Jessica Townsend, a college student who teaches English in Korea. She helps set up the episode’s plot centering around a series of disfiguring murders in Seoul and is the latest victim in the wave of homicides. She landed a much bigger role as Annie Curtis in Occupants, a found-footage film about a woman who wants to document a month’s worth of clean living but accidentally starts filming an alternate universe. Throughout the movie, White plays double duty as the Annie who started the documentary and the alternate universe Annie, who doesn’t take kindly to the filming.
The actress has also appeared in various commercials, including one for Acura of Thousand Oaks. Humorously enough, White does not speak in that ad.
