Starfarer Prologue (Video)
« on: December 12, 2012, 04:17:20 AM »

I was trying out some voice changing. Used Starfarer's prologue story as Lorem Ipsum, filler text. Decided to turn the results into a short video. I'll probably do a proper effort later, with better images and voiceclips, replacing this video.   8)

Good reading. Are sure you even need the voice change?

Arranging holidays in an embrace with the Starsector is priceless.

Thanks for the compliment.  :)

I might not need it, but I like playing around with it. Shall I read the full story for a new video? This was only half of it.

Mh, not for me, it's already 6 minutes long. Maybe others would like to listen to it but I already know it too well.

That said, I was for some time now and still am planning to make a Starfarer video, a combination of Davids drawings in animated form and in-game battle scenes. It would totally need a narrator and I think I have too much accent. Would you be interested in a collaboration in that direction? Don't have the time right now though, it will probably have to wait till next year.

Yes, that's why I initially only recited half the text. Though it ends at 4:40. The rest is just music. Anyway, I'd be interested in working on such a collaboration. Keep me posted.

Here's two video's I had to do applying to do voice acting for a Star Wars game. Which I got accepted to. The second one containing offensive stereotypes  ;D Yes, there's a Chekov accent in the first one.  8)






Unfortunately voice acting was cut (postponed) in the end. After recording about 200 clips. Doh!

Excellent work. :) Sounds kinda like Tali with a voice change from ME3. (the first one)

The second one, the scottish one, would sound nice, but not really *appropriate*.  Although I've got no beef with it. ;D

Nice voice acting--I personally think the voice filter somewhat ruins it, though. You seems talented enough to not have to hide behind computer-generated effects :P

What nationality are you? And the voice acting is quite good though some I was at least wary of *British (how dare you ;))* otherwise well done.

That so-called "British" accent was just for fun. A terrible stereotype I know. But, in truth I can differentiate between several different regional English accents.

Sounds Russian to me, but then sometimes it sounds like Tali from ME...

If you need more help on this "colaboration" I might be able to help. Im good at editing and can film some scence myslef. I would love to help in any way i can.

Should we make a sepreate thread talking about making a really nice trailer for this game, with narration and stuff?

P.S. i will try to get some scnece add music and see if you like any of my work or not. Again not sure if a new thread is needed for a "trailer" or whatever you would call this colaberation or if you would want to use this instead.
