Captain SNES: The Audio; Something that could be marketable, yo!

Hello Zero! How are voices coming along?

Also to those who would like to do voices for the Captain SNES Audio, I mean people who are actually SERIOUS about doing this (and by serious I don't mean "I can record my voice BUT I don't know if you'll like it" or "I'd love to help but I don't have a microphone that works" If you want to do this, get a working mike and record your voice. If I like it, you're in. If not, try for another role or something.) please go here for the list of characters for Act 2.1

http://voiceactingalliance.com/board/showthread.php?t=47787

Just so you know, I won't be accepting voices without an audition for that character first. Yes, I am still doing this, yes I am quite serious about getting this bird off the ground, yes I need other people who are serious as well about doing this. And I know you're busy, hell I am too, but if you put in a couple of hours worth you should be able get all the voices for said character in. I know this because most of the big parts are already taken.

Also, for those who aren't interested in voice acting or are in fact too busy, I'd like to try and use this thread as a Homework thread, the same way Jay Dee has one for his comic.

Right now I need a place where I can get the soundtrack to Final Fantasy IV, VI and Chrono Trigger.

Blue Laguna, for all your jRPG music needs.

Awesome! Now what I'll probably need next is some music from the Legend of Zelda, Link to the Past...Namely the opening theme where the CG triforces first come in, and Ganon's Final Battle.

Also, the Weakest Link theme song.

Roy doesn't sound too bad. Sounds kinda like Snoop Dog yo! I can dig it, but it might need a little more emotion behind it. Unfortunately so does your Magus voice.

Also unfortunate, you're about a week too late. I already casted the parts of both Magus and Roy Koopa. Just updated the cast list right now, yo!

I still need a Larry Koopa and a Spencer voice (Bionic Commando) if you're interested in doing those. Also Gomez Addams.

JC123, how good are you at doing different voices?

Ah yes, I remember why I came here! Time to upload some Audio!

The volume kind of bugs me, Lucca seems louder than everyone else. Good, though.
Hey, the comic seems to be updating kind of regularly. Maybe we should vote to spread the word.

Just a bit...

To be fair, it'd probably fit right in with early-80s cartoon characters if that was the goal. Not sure if that's a complement or an insult, though. :P

Sorry, but I gotta' agree. Alex doesn't sound right. At all. He sounds like he's twelve.

You mentioned earlier you were trying to mimic Max from Sam and Max, since he's snarky, but he doesn't sound like that because he's snarky; he sounds like that because he's tiny.

I would note that Alex is supposed to be 21. It's in his bio file. I'm pretty sure his voice has dropped by now.

Sorry to hear that. I'm sure it'll grow onto you with time. Shame too. All I needed to do to get that voice was raise my pitch an octave. Though if you don't like Alex's voice, you're probably going to hate Ryan's voice for the OPPOSITE reason.


Another homework assignment. One for Jay Dee (if he bothers to look this way) and one for the rest of you.

I need Corillo's dialogue from Page 204. Specifically the part which gets covered up by Rydia's conversation with Kainazzo and the Sylph.

Also, I need the names (and tunes) of all the songs that Gomez Addams sings. The only one's I know are the Addams Family song and the "Then I got high" song.

No, I really don't think It's going to. Not that you need my stamp of approval to go ahead with this, but that voice will never seem right for Alex.

For the record, JayDee was the one who pointed out that Alex was 21, and not twelve, so you can guess which side of this he agrees with.

Really, I can understand the "I want to play the hero" syndrome, but if you want to do this project right, find someone who sounds like they're notably more than half the main character's age.

I don't think it's a matter of disliking the voice so much as a matter of it being entirely unsuitable for the character.

Although the hilarity value of a 12-year-old Alex arguing with a baritone Ryan is intriguing.

I won't argue that I have some of that "I wanna play the hero" syndrome. Though I do have some other good reasons for doing this:

1) Because this IS my project. Thus I do have the luxury of choosing the voices. Namely who does which character and what they sound like.

2) Because Jay Dee chose not to get involved with this project. As many times as I've asked for his help and input on things, the only useful thing he's really told me was that any time he spends outside the comic, basically takes away from the comic itself. I would've gladly given him the part of Ryan if he wanted to...but that ship has set sail.

3) Because casting can be a bitch. Lemme give you a few examples:
A)Teamrocket Rose gave me all the lines for Zelda and Marle in Act 1. She hasn't really talked to me since, nor has she bothered to give me any of Marle's Act 2 voices.
B)Cirno has been better. She's been feeding me Lucca lines once every week, but with her hectic schedule, there's no telling which part of the week I'll get them, or if I'll get them at all. And she decided to quit with Rydia's part (though thankfully she said she'd do them if she finished Lucca and nobody else took the part)
C) My cousin, Alisha (who has no internet nickname) was gracious enough to come over my house to do lines for Porom. I sat her down for FOUR HOURS STRAIGHT and had her do all of Porom's Lines. Thankfully it'll be awhile before Porom shows up because she got pretty fucking sick of doing it and she probably wouldn't want to do it again for quite a long time!

Now. Try to imagine casting someone ELSE to do Alex's voice, with all the narration and all the lines he's got, not just for the almost 600 pages but for the future... Do you really think I wanna work around someone else's schedule for such a big part? Didn't think so.

Thus I think it's more reliable to cast good ol' #1 for the future.


But I will say this. Having 12 year old Alex argue with Baritone Ryan is pretty hilarious...albiet a little strange, especially since implied that Ryan is YOUNGER than Alex.

I know plenty of older people with light voices, and the only baritone I know lightened his voice as he got out of teenage years, so I don't see any problems with it. Really, just normalize Cirno's voice so I don't have to play with the volume every issue, and cut it so the interruptions are actually overlapping whom they interrupt, and it would be perfect.

And, god, I know it's a big pain to get help over the internet, and all this bitching from people who didn't help out...

You're right, it is your project. God forbid someone give any suggestions for your project to be better. You said you raised your voice an octave to do that voice? Try not pitching your voice so high. But seriously, this isn't a tribute project as it stands; it's a parody.

And I'm done. You're right, spriteless, I didn't contribute to the project, I've just put more time into the site and forum than anybody else but JayDee, so what do I know? Personally, I thought the project was a Bad Idea from the start.

God forbid I offer my opinion without dunking hours upon hours into this? No one who didn't make it is allowed to have an opinion unless it is glowingly positive?

What? No, I didn't say that. I was complaining about some things myself. I just don't think all old guys have lower voices than all young guys.

It sounded pretty much like it, but hey, if you say so, we'll go with that.

And I'm not saying Alex needs a deep voice. I just seriously doubt he's a freaking alto. Teach, you say you can mimic voices, try mimicking something a bit lower, see how that works.
