Well, it's been a little while since any public updates so let me show you what's been happening behind the scenes.
I am finished recording and tweaking the voice of Queen Zeal!
I did it myself because I wanted the pronunciation a certain way. (I was very picky on how it had to be done, so I did it on my own)
However, before I start integrating it into video...
I want to REALLY make sure that we all agree that this voice is perfectly sinister for the Queen's role. I made several attempts and (when I got it right) then I listened to it after recording and mixing, it sent shivers through my soul. I said to myself, 'this is IT!' I have made a 2 minute and a half sampler using part of the scene with Magus, Schala and Queen Zeal in the Ocean Palace. I hope everyone finds this version of Magus much more suitable for his role. Thanks to Princess Schala Zeal for the sound clips as well. (though, I'll still have to put a little more tweaking into those)
Note: The Prophet's line at the beginning sounds differently than Magus (this is intended)
Of course, I threw in some sound effects and music to make it more interesting...
Download the sampler <here>, listen, and then give feedback!
Positive feedback welcome.
Negative feedback welcome. However, please state why you'd oppose it.
Thank you.
Soon, I will release an experimental episode of the scene with Magus and the party at Northern Cape. If all goes well (like Square doesn't come out of nowhere telling me this cannot be done) we can begin work on Episode 1 "The Millennial Fair" (Of course, we still need a Marle for this) Around that time, I will release the entire script of all episodes so that voice actors can work on their parts at their own pace.
I hope to have all episodes done and released before *ahem*
'something' else I've been working on, gets put out there to the mainstream.Also, I will be creating a video tutorial on some of the techniques I use with Audacity to get the max out of it--which I hope will assist our voice actors even more.
