Voice actors needed.
« on: February 10, 2014, 08:57:16 AM »
For staged mission briefings, radio chatter etc. All WW2 languages/accents wanted. but especially British and American.

I would send you a script and you send me back a .wav file.

You recieve no pay and no benefits but if you like your own voice, (I can't stand the sound of mine) you get a legacy of others possibly hearing it for years to come.

If you think you can sound like a Colonel giving a mission briefing or a young pilot speaking on the radio, pm me or respond here.

In real life, I sound just like Sean Connery but on AH, sound like Ferris Bueller with a head cold.

Exhibit A (in real life): "Be careful Ryan, what you shoot at.  Most things in here don't react too well to bullets."

ExhibitB (in AH): "She got a car, I got a computer.  How's that for being born under a bad sign?"


See what I mean?  :furious

 And how can man die better, than facing fearful odds.
 For the ashes of his fathers and the temples of his Gods."

I prefer:  "It reminds me of the heady days of Sputnik and Yuri Gagarin, when the world trembled at the sound of a our Rockets. Well they will tremble again at the sound of our silence."

  LOL, Still I need more than one option.

They are for staged missions.

I would like to recreate sound clips like this.

I don't want to use actual movie sound tracks etc due to copyright issues, in case some of them later find their way into an AH boxed game or something, plus I need them tailored to the missions I am building.

I can use computer generated voice for languages other than English because the majority of the folks here wouldn't recognize improper voice inflections etc in German or Japanese, however I would prefer to have things correct for international players as well,

Computer generated English in either British or American accent just sounds lousy.

Did radio for 30+ years, same for voice acting.  Many, many local USA accents.  Have home studio and can send just about any audio file you need.
