When you say 'voice actors' is this just spoken word? If so it would be a good
idea to put a pop screen in front of the mic to suppress plosives. If desperate
you can make one with a wire coat hanger and a bit of a nylon stocking.
Are they speaking one at a time or in groups? If singly hang a large duvet
behind them to deaden echos. In any case go for the larger room, and try to
position people and the mic to give the longest possible return path - avoid
90deg to walls like the plague!
