Sent you off some lines for Gabriel, under the name of MrUnforgivingFox in the email.

Just the other day, I was thinking it'd be great fun to be involved in something like this. Not sure if my voice is exactly what you're looking for, but I'll give it a go.

I've been told that I have the voice of a 40 year old chain smoker. I've also been told that I talk in an emotionless monotone drone. I think I might not be what you're looking for.

I've always been interested in trying out voice acting, but my voice is just really, really bad.

Okay, I'm interested, but I'd be a complete amateur at voice acting. (The one I'd be interested in auditioning for is either Ami or Jesia)

It'd be helpful if you had clips of how you'd want the line to be spoken, though I'm guessing you're willing to be a bit flexible with that.

Also, for Jesia, by "well spoken"... Could you elaborate on that a little. Do you mean sort of... Posh?

Yeah these lines are used so we can hear you voice more than anything else so we are more flexible.
And yes with Jesia I mean posh when I said well spoken.

Just one question, do you care if australian?

 

[Richardplex]

DAMMIT.

I can't send the files to you. After all that, my email can't send files over 25MB. DAMN YOU, YAHOO!

Any other way I could get these files to you? They're 81MB and 93MB. Lemme know.

Upload them to dropbox, and then send them the download link?

Just one question, do you care if australian?

The upside of the project is that the school that the story is based in is pulling students from all around to world in to it so I can be much more relaxed on accents, as long as you're accents should not be much of an issue

 

[JessieK]

Just as an update I have received lines from the following people:

MrUnforgivingFox
ChristopherT
Tao
RatRace123
MrMorrisMan

If anyone else has sent off lines and you do not see your name here, please message me on this site with your e-mail so I can double check.

 

[Talaris]

I might give this a go just to see what I can do. Hope you don't mind a London accent (not cockney, more like those used in Ghibli films).

 

[BlindTom]

I considered applying for this until I read the transcripts. You will never get a good performance out of anyone having them read those lines. They are grammatically confusing and lack any of the characteristics of speech. (Filler etc)

That said the general gist of them is fine. Would you be ok with an actor that ad libs those lines? They need to be longer, with more pauses, and little bits of coricumlocution during those massive shifts in tone and subject that keep occuring mid sentence. People might well say those things but never in the way they're written. The acting will always sound wrong if those lines are read as they're written.

 

[Volothos]

Well, I'm interested in this! I'll try to see if I can get an application in.

 

[BoredAussieGamer]

I was going to put in for this, but then I looked at the characters. None of them would be suited for my deep, gravely voice.

 

[CheesyGrin1992]

Looks like it could be fun. I've done a tiny bit of voice acting before and thoroughly enjoyed it, so why not? I'll give it a go

 

[PsychedelicDiamond]

Oh, i'd certainly like to take part in this projects. I'm gonna record the lines of the male characters... I'll let you decide if my voice is what you have in mind for them.

[snappydog]

Looks fun, I'll have a go!

(Captcha: if it fits. Well, I hope my voice fits. That'd be nice.)

 

[Tortilla the Hun]

I'd most certainly be interested in this project you have going here. I've been told I've a decent voice, and I'd definitely like to try my hand (so to speak) at voice acting.

 

[Rattja]

Aww, I was hoping for something fitting for a really deep voice =/

This is so cool! I will totally audition!

One question though - what file format do you prefer? Or, more specifically, is .wma okay?
