Rate my voice!

[LordHunter]

hello!

I'm making a cinematic, and i'm having trouble finding some voice actors, so i did the rash thing, and i went out to buy a microphone and recorded some voices. So i'm curious to know what people think if my first 'acting performances'

There's 4: the 1st is my regualr voice, the second is a demonic voice, the 3rd is a dying guy, and the fourth (watch out is pretty loud and crappy) is the demon guy again.

Please tell me how it was ... I don't want to ruin my cinematic with my voice ^^

(IMO, the 2nd and 3rd are the best)

Not so very good

To be honest with you, only the ''my arm" is good other not so good.
Giving comands ain't your talent. You were blowing your microphone away.
My advice: hold a paper betwen you and micro, It worked for me.

 

[LordHunter]

Thx for the advice i'll try that... Guess i'll refrain from giving order lol h

Umm... I could do it for you if you would like.

Funny story, I clicked on the you idiots one on accident when I opened the tread and it scared the shit out of me because I didnt know where it was coming from and I have it so windows media player is one of the little icons in the bottom right corner rather than on my taskbar my go that was scary looped like 50 times before I found it.

 

[LordHunter]

haha lol

You could do some voices? That would be great!

 

[Ezikielth]

Yeah, See PM for more info Lord

Well, I have a few tips for you...

Speak loudly.
Enunciate using your diaphragm.
Don't blow into the microphone. (hold an air blocker in the way, or speak further away)
Add some more emotion into your voice!
Practice the lines until you are certain you won't trip over words.
Sound editing software is your friend!

Hope I helped.

And I saw your cinematic LordHunter. It's pretty good. Only thing missing are the voices. And I saw a few minor bugs.

 

[LordHunter]

Thx, i know... it was my 1st one too... next one is going to be leagues better than that ^^ (could you point out the minor bugs btw?)

 

[Velmarshal]

You got me interested, and thats not easy to do.

Ok I have a few questions. First could you get me music like that but not cutted and you must be joking about that this is your first movie, I could belive if it was first uploaded. I would give the movie 9.5/10(as I said voices)

 

[LordHunter]

Well i discovered the WE a month ago, i made an RPG for 2 weeks, then i started creating cine's for 2 weeks, then i made this one over a week.

Well the music i got, was stuff i heard before somewhere and i used limewire to download them. Limewire is a free p2p and you can get all of stuff there (music, videos etc..)

If you don't have it DL it here http://www.limewire.com/

Thanks for your rating, it's nice to know that at least some people apreciate my work

@instant ramen

Sry didn't see your post before. Thanks for the advice, i think you have some good points, that i'll use to improve

 

[Velmarshal]

Lol i forgot to tell you about the bug that made me lol all day. When the bad guy kills the good one with his sword, the bloodelf did his laghing animation. Thats the biggest bug that is noticable.

These are my first four missions of the "13th Legion" campaing.

You should practice and harden your voice for the HoldYouPosition part and speak loudly in case YouIdiots.

 

[Abysmal]

1) Try to lower the microphone input volume in order to remove some of the self-noise from your mic.
2) Use a sound editor to cut out some of the hiss and stuff.
3) Don't speak directly into the mic because this causes pops and clicks. At least, try not to blow airflow into it. Mind plosive consonants like , [t] and [k] - very dangerous.
4) Fuck around with your voice and see what's in store (determine what kind of voices you could do). Different accents maybe, change the pitch, make it smooth or sharp, clean or harsh but certainly - don't overact and try to make an impression you're not capable of. Not everyone can be a great narrator or Count Dooku, so if something isn't working out, just don't do it for the time being. In the same time, don't be monotonous and underact except when the character demands it.
5) Don't rely on sound effects! You can't just lower the frequency by an octave for the older characters and raise a bit for the children, and yeah! - 'I'm done!' 'cause it doesn't sound like a human anymore.
Basically, that's it! I may have missed something but it's quite alright for now.

 

[SantaBla]

I won't lie to you. It wasn't very good. The 4th one was funny though. MY ARRRRRRRRM!!! XD

 

[NoNZealot]

Well, these sounds sound a little techno to me. Maybe the quality I don't know. As others stated, My Arm is funny,good and worthful. And again as others stated you shouldnt give any order. You can't be a commander @_@

 

[neogaidenx]

i think the YouIdiots is good the last one sounds irritating..
