JPDS Voice Acting

Well.. we are still a little ways from the voice recording stage of JPDS.. but it's getting closer and closer and I've begun working on the final "script" for what you'll hear in the level. We'll ultimately be wanting a fair variety of voices present, so you're not just hearing me do a bunch of variations :yum:, and it's just occurred to me that I might get one or two extra voice talents by recruiting from here. We're looking for people who speak pretty fluent English and can have a pretty grown-up, serious-sounding voice. In theory we also need another female for a minor roll, but I believe I can squeeze that one out of Matt's side of things. ;)

So, let's hear it! Post here if you're interested and then we'll see about how to conduct the audition process.

Haha, dude... I hope you're not referring to my sister xD she's a really bad voice actor... (see the very end of my latest youtube video for proof...) Mind you, I'm sure she can get better with practice.

I'd apply but my voice has a nasty habit of changing accents on me... usual deep voice one minute the next it can change to anything from canadian to irish for a few days... and I have little control over it...

EDIT: dude, WTF albertosaur? I really should get the dang post count down

Haha, wow.. well that's interesting, but as long as you can keep 1 accent for a whole recording session, that's fine. Then we'll do another one a week later for a different character XD Who knows we'll see.

I wouldn't mind doing some voice acting. I've done some in the past with my brother and a friend just for fun. :lol: If you want, I could send you one of those clips right away.

If you need Spanish language voiceovers, there's a wide array in the forum, we have people from several different countries (and different accents)...

Argh well if you have a bad throat, don't worry about it, we're not that desperate. :yum:

Hmmmm TBH, I'm not sure if we'll need any, but it's quite possible (script is not finished yet lol). I will bare that in mind. Most of the voices are going to be for InGen scientists and the like.

Treecko (Dont ask how I figured this out)
Totodile (I learned about this one after I did a donald duck impersonation)
