All right, I got a message back from touquie and shanker. touquie says she's fine. shanker, though, he says he's nowhere near a computer (in a hotel), so I said we'll wait a couple of weeks for him. Haven't heard from mrguy36 or lostincyberspace just yet.

Edit: AniDragon has agreed to do visser one, or Eva to be more precise, since the yeerk will obviously sound different.

I've got Visser One's part recorded, though I'm not sure how good it is... My Mic's not the best. *shrugs*

Also I'm not sure if I sound threatening enough. I'll let you guys be the judge of that.

i like it, especially the last line, good job

this is great, but if you want some constructive criticism, you could do it a little slower and colder you know, but for her first book it will work

Thanks! ^_^. I can work on the whole sounding colder thing, though it'll have to wait for tomorrow morning. (And when I say morning I mean early afternoon... lol)

I don't know about colder, but slower would probably be nice.

Not bad though.

K, I'm just going to PM Duff seperate chapters.  I'm not done them, but it shouldn't take too long.
Title: Re: #5 the Predator
Post by: Duff on July 23, 2008, 12:52:34 PM
sweet thanks touq, I'll listen to them in a few minutes and start editing them in

Hey, my brother said that he wants to do some random extra lines :P

He can do both the clerk and Hork-bajir if it's availible.  We'll just pitch shift his voice down for the hork-bajir :)
Title: Re: #5 the Predator
Post by: mrlarry on July 23, 2008, 11:17:32 PM
I actually already recorded both of the clerks and the hork-bajir, before I got the part of Ax.

However, I recorded the chapter where Ax is in human morph at the mall, and the voice for his human morph is almost indistinguishable from the clerk at starbucks. I was just going to re-record those lines with a different voice, but if your brother wants to do them, that's cool.

Nice gong, Anidragon. You sound, rather, annoyed at Visser three's lack of knowledge about earth wildlife. Your voice has Arrogance, contempt, and superior. All that a major Yeerk Visser needs.

That's an awesome recording AniDragon. I love the tone of your voice. I definitely can see the hatred of Visser Three.

The only thing I would say is that you sound rather young for a woman in her 40's. Did you use audacity? Dropping the pitch by a factor of about .5 might make you sound a bit older without garbling it. I do the same thing in reverse when I'm recording Loren (since she's 13 and I'm 22) and it works pretty well.

I use GarageBand, which, apart from recording, I know nothing about how to use it. lol. I can play around with it, though.

Also, I tried to re-record some lines and speak them slower, but couldn't get anything I liked.

Alright, my brother will do the Radio Shack clerk :)

Here's the slightly lower pitched version of Eva.

That's great, AniDragon! You're a perfect Visser One/Eva. :)
Title: Re: #5 the Predator
Post by: morfowt on July 25, 2008, 05:47:55 PM
That's pretty good...although honestly, I didn't see much difference from the last one.
Title: Re: #5 the Predator
Post by: AniDragon on July 25, 2008, 06:38:12 PM
It's not much of a change, just basically makes my voice sound over 30 years old instead of 23.

You guys can use whichever variation you like best, though.

That sounds great, AniDragon.

Post by: Duff on August 31, 2008, 01:31:30 PM
So main characters, hows it coming? Seriously once you guys get me your lines this book will be out in like a week tops. Then we can actually show a product to everyone on the site and everyone will be motivated to work harder and this thing will start moving alot quicker, at least thats my hopeful optimistic view lol
Title: Re: #5 the Predator
Post by: mrlarry on September 01, 2008, 01:03:04 AM
yeah, i've got some recorded, but I'm STILL waiting for internet in my room
Title: Re: #5 the Predator
Post by: morfowt on December 27, 2008, 08:05:31 PM
So how's progress on this book? do you guys at least have enough lines for another chapter?
Title: Re: #5 the Predator
Post by: Duff on December 27, 2008, 11:38:36 PM
I only have lines from touquie, as far as main parts go. At least I think.

But as for my part goes, I'm completely done with it, so I'm just waiting on lines lol
