Offering voice acting help.

Hello, all. I have only recently discovered how in demand voice actors appear to be in the modding community. I have long been a fan of the Elder Scrolls series, and have long sought to go after voice acting, but I never thought to merge the two.

 

So, I offer my services for any of you who need characters voiced for your games. I am a young male, and my favourite voice to do in TES so far is the Khajiit accent. However, I'm willing to try anythign you throw at me. Deadric prince? Sure. Wind spirit? Awesome. Dragon? Definitely. Billy the Giant Werepigeon Mime? Yupsidoodles. If you want to hear a ample of my khajiit accent, here is a link to me reading a script I wrote tellign the story of a man turned tiger-folk, turned Khajiit Mane. *strokes whiskers*

Please consider learning how to edit sound - remove noise from the recording, maybe lower the pitch a tiny bit. Program Audacity is easy in use and offers incredibly amounts of possibilities. I You think about voice acting more seriously though, practise diction, try giving your recording less of a "theather for kids" feel becuase this is the thing I can see in many recordings of beggining voice actors - give appropriate racial pronouncing but never too much. Consider buying better microphone ( keep in mind that they are quite expensive)

 

Think about this why voice actors are so demanded in modding comunity - not everone can voice act, this is a fact. I admit, that every voice can find a character it fits but you know what I mean - it is very dificult to provide decent voice acting in so many different kinds of voices.

 

Think about it once again, I wish You that you'll sucess in voice acting if you take it serious :)

 

That's all from me

Ah, an intrepid soul setting off into the wonderful world of voicework.

 

Some advice: try to avoid uploading anything with particularly poor sound quality, especially if you have very few recordings. It sort of sets a precedent.

"Oh, this fellow has some samples. *takes a listen* Well, his actual acting wasn't particularly bad, but some of the audio itself sounded far too unpolished. Rather not take a chance with that."*

 

Do try to avoid making any "mouthy" noises, like smacking your tongue or licking your lips. You can edit them out, but it's ultimately easier (and more professional) if you can train yourself to just not make them.

Most importantly, try saving up for a decent microphone. You'll need at least, say, $80 for a just-passable one (unless you find one on sale or have some other stroke of luck; alternatively, I've been had).
