Right well explaination time...
I am desperate for voice actors at the moment, because even though the animation looks nice, and its always fun to watch giant mechs fight it out the only problem I have found when watching it back myself is that I dont think that its accessible enough to people who dont know whats going on.
Like for instance in one scene I have an enemy transport appearing and then the scene switches to the hanger of a friendly transport, now without audio queues and voice segments this transition would make no sense and make it seem like the friendlys are onboard the enemy transport.
Thus this is where everyone comes in, by providing the voices it makes the animation go a hell of alot smoother in certain places and also gives viewers an idea of whats going on, even if they are not fans of the series and are just curious.
So, I have images up on the site of the various segments, they also feature the characters names or jobs, for instance "Dropship hanger supervisor" , they say what Gender the character has to be even though most of them I have basically said can be either male or female there are some specific parts that I actually need a male or female voice because I have specified it in the past in character bios and such.
So the idea is you look through the last 8 images I uploaded to the Limit Release gallery, for all the information and characters, as each image comes with their lines and also the situations they are in so you can get a feeling of the setting and then base your voice over on how you think the character would sound in that situation.
After recording the Voice over, you simply send the file/s to me at the email thats on the images, I will then gather them up, arrange them and do a small edit to make them sound like they are on radios and such, and then your name goes in the final credits (forum name or real one).
What I am doing for parts that have multiple people apply for them is picking the best VA and putting their voice to that part to get the best sounding voices for each part, so if someone ends up contesting with another person for a part, and they dont happen to make the cut its not a complete wash out as I will include anyone who actively takes part in the credits anyway for helping and trying, so effectively theres nothing to lose and you still end up in the ending credits for your efforts as I am not letting anything go to waste.
So yea check out the last 8 images in the Limit Release gallery on ..
