SIGNUP - Lend your voice to a project

Postby Prodigi » Thu Sep 01, 2011 12:28 am

Hey guys,

I'm going to be looking for some volunteers for a project I'll be working on.

I'm going to need people who can:
- Record (in good/decent quality) the audio of themselves saying a line or two that they are assigned (20 seconds at most).
- Scan a copy of the same line handwritten.

I'm going to need a variety of ages and both genders so if you're interested please reply including your age and gender and I'll put you on my list so that when I start assigning lines I can do it based on this information to better fit the scope of the project.

Each line will be accompanied with a word to describe how to deliver it.

If you're interested but somewhat self-conscious about your voice, etc, fear not because a lot of the audio will be overlayed at parts.

I'm hoping to be able to start sending out some lines over the weekend. Let me know if you're interested.

Note: If you're interested but you're thinking your audio quality won't be as good still feel free to sign-up. A lot of the audio is going to end up layered which means I can make adjustments to what is/isn't prominent based on audio quality.

More info here when I have it.

Edit: More info v1. Nice amount of people signed up already and I'm sending out lines about 12 hours from now to the volunteers so far.

Oh, why not. I've never gotten in on this kind of thing, so I'll lend a voice. 24-year-old chick. Deeper alto voice, if that helps. Recording methods might suck; I'll have to try them out and figure out the best one.

Oh yeah, almost forgot:

29-M, wide-range baritone. As for accents, I can do a fairly neutral north-american, southeastern american, or pretty much anything required.

POW. Sup guys. Thanks for the PMs and replies.

I got the last of the lines written up over the weekend and will be sending PMs to peeps with their lines, etc, in about 12 hours when I'm home from work and such.

Once you've done your recording just reply to the PM and link me to the file. Just makes it easier for me to track the files, etc.

More updates when I have them =o

EDIT: I changed it up slightly and sent everyone 2 lines each instead (with some overlap amongst people). It'll give me a better range to work with and help me pick certain voices for certain lines better. It also means that if I end up needing more done I know what people can already do and choose accordingly. Thanks again for the help guys. I'll update again if I need more, etc.
