OK, here's my review of chapter 1 and part of chapter 2 of the Message.  I focused more on acting than accent, mostly to give an idea of what a director does.

Anidragon, you're up next.  Your lines are in the book threads, yes?

Quite a good review, and accurate as well.  :)

Just so you know, I'm actually kind of sick.

I look forward to any advice you can give me for de-midwesternizing my accent. :P

Here's Anidragon's.  One of the tapes I mention is in the thread here.

Sweet, I'll have to listen to that when I get home.

EDIT: Just listened to them, very handy! I'll take a look at the tapes you posted, and practice them. I do agree that I need to slow down my speech when I'm recording. The fast-speaking is probably the biggest indication of my Acadian-French upbringing.

As for the dolphin trainer, the accent probably doesn't matter as much, what with her being a very minor character. But, I may tackle her lines again after listening to the tapes.

Ken,

Accent: "r"s after vowels should sound like "r"s before vowels (in most cases).  Actually, there are some non-rhotic Cal accents (Cal is crazy-diverse), but I really think Tobias should have a rhotic one.  I'll put up a tape for that.  Pronunciation of AY is correct for Tobias; you don't need the Canadian-raising tape.

Also, you might want to experiment with Cal vowel shift.  I'll do a tape for that too, but it's lower priority.

Audio quality is bad--especially the noise.  You deserve better recording equipment than what you're using.  What exactly are you using, by the way?

Sure, morf.  The standard procedure will be for timers to add effects, but I'm happy to give it a listen.

yeah, but I did that WAY before you suggested that procedure... in fact, I think i did that before new RAF even existed... if it's easier for you, I can post my david lines instead...

Don't worry about it.  I'll listen this afternoon.  Can't promise to post (since I'm supposed to be packing and cleaning the kitchen.  oops ::))

No offense but it sounds a little hard to understand with the effects on
