Re: Voice Acting Blue Planet
KappaWing2.wav is the only one I hear background noise on.  Not sure where that was coming from. 

I'm going to record new samples; I was keeping my voice too low on a couple of them because I didn't want the other people in the house to wander in wondering who I was talking to.   :lol:  I'm home alone right now, so I should be able to get better ones.

Re: Voice Acting Blue Planet
Alright, I've finally got my lines in and ready. I needed to run through the campaign again and hand copy most of the lines outright, but with work, I've come up with an array of selections. I've attempted to make them easier to choose between, considering I wasn't able to narrow the choices down much further than this. Feedback would be much appreciated to help better myself.

Keep in mind that I'm trying for the position of the GTD Orestes Communications Officer when you listen to these. Failing that, I'll fill in for some of the minor comms officers if I have to.

BP - Admiral Bosch Impression
BP - Chasing the GTC Duke
BP - Bass Version of the Aforementioned
BP - Breaking Pitch in the Heat of Battle
BP - Cannae Take It Any More, Cap'n
BP - Being Myself
BP - Renjian
BP - Return to Base
BP - What's Our Vector, Victor

Re: Voice Acting Blue Planet
Thanks for your submissions, FoxtrotTango. This is definitely a role we're interested in filling. We'll let you know how things go.

Re: Voice Acting Blue Planet
Happy to record any 'incidentals' that are still needed - comms officers and other single-liners.

Attached is a quick snippet - natural voice without any emphasis.

If you can email/PM me a set of lines I can turn them around quite quickly and you can use what fits.

Let me know what peak and mean dBA you need to match levels, and how much preroll/postroll makes sense and I'll do first cut editing before sending them out.

Re: Voice Acting Blue Planet
We're currently waiting on complete scripts from Darius before casting all the minor roles. But we're happy to take a look at samples!

Re: Voice Acting Blue Planet
Hey folks. (Double post, I know.)

If you have submitted an audition and not received an explicit response, please bother me (preferably with resubmitted audio.) I'll be prompt this time.

We have currently completed voice acting work for Corey, Taylor, the Temeraire comms officer, Al'Fadil, and Lieutenant Nehru (more or less). We are waiting on Rear Admiral Carey and the Sanctuary to complete their roles.

We've cast a few different people as Sam. Mostly, we're waiting on responses.

We're also waiting on complete AoA scripts to do the minor roles. I think I'm going to generate these myself, since Darius is really busy with RL and War in Heaven. (I finally have access to FRED!)

Because both Rian and I are quite busy, progress has been slow, but we are over the hump in terms of casting (most) of the major roles. Sam himself and Sam's father are the big ones remaining.

Re: Voice Acting Blue Planet
Here's a few incidentals.

Let me know if they are at sensible levels, and if there are any other lines you'd like.
- I can export to OGG Vorbis or the raw WAV if preferred, but I know everyone can play an MP3.

Re: Voice Acting Blue Planet
These are excellent, Tomo. Except they're very quiet. But your mic seems good and your voice is suitable for some pretty nice roles.

I'm going to conference your samples with Rian tonight and then get in touch. In the meantime, could you just boost the volume? I'll get you the specifics of format and so on when we cast you.

Re: Voice Acting Blue Planet
We just got lines in from our Sam Bei actor! That means our effort is over the big hump (although, of course, we still have to do retakes on a few lines.)

Re: Voice Acting Blue Planet
Summer's coming up, so we'll have more time.

We're probably not going to take too much longer to get lines recorded, assuming we can find actors for the minor roles. But we also have to normalize everything, make sure it's all in the correct format, and get it it ingame. We may need to get in touch with a more pro individual to get that done.

 
Re: Voice Acting Blue Planet
I would be willing to try some voice acting. I've done amateur/public radio, and had a podcast for a while. I'd be willing to do a Comms/Control officer, or perhaps a generic plot-device wingman/pilot. I'll try and find some lines to do, and I'll post here when I get them done.

Also, playing through BP in between work and writing. Fantastic work, guys. It'll be like 150% more awesome with voices.

Re: Voice Acting Blue Planet
That'd be ideal! Here are our current lines: Check it out.

Also, I believe Darius just fixed a bug with the ending, so you should go redownload the campaign from the BP 3.6.10 thread - I don't think you'll lose any of your progress.
