Just an idea that popped into my head. ^^
This thread is place for people looking for feedback on their auditions before they send them in to the producer. I know that I'm always looking for feedback (and I know you are too!) and I'm always interested in hearing other people's auditions.
This is just another way to have fun and improve our voice acting skills~
And now...some rules!
1) Remember that by posting here, your auds are open game for anyone to review. PLEASE do not cause drama by whining if someone gave you a bad review. Be prepared to take constructive criticism.
2) CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISM ONLY. "Man, you suck." is totally not acceptable and doesn't help the person out at all. Let's not cause any drama and keep this thread alive as long as we can, okies?
3) Remember, I posted this in the FUN section for a reason.
Any takers? ^^

How Brilliant! I love this idea..and btw your audition lines rocked!
Scarlotte
05-27-2006, 06:13 PM
YAY! Great idea!
Okay well my review, I'm definately no pro but I hope this helps a bit. Your last three lines were awsome especially the dog line it's absolutely adorable but if you really wanted to redo them I'd say try to make line one flow more. I don't know, maybe if you try not to emphasize the question so much or emphasize the whole phrase, or maybe put a bit less of a pause, I know the line says there's a pause but maybe if you just drag out the last word a bit more and sound sort of drowsy and then say "this early in the morning" with a groaning type attitude! Other than that awsomeness! ^-^ Hope this helps, and sorry for the excessive amount of detail but it's only stuff incase you want to do it right? Anyways Great idea I should find some auds to put up here too!

Wow, Cristina, those were awesome :3 Especially the dog barking one, haha. The only thing I can really think of for improvement is Meroko's tone seems like it should be slightly lower and a little nasal - but then again, that's just my interpretation of the character, so who knows. Great job.

Well those are awsome auditions I don't see how they are bad, on the voice maybe a bit younger but maybe not I think that voice will fit her quite well but for the second line it sounds a bit flat, and it's also a pretty awkward line but when she says that she is one of the three fairy's from sleeping beauty so maybe a little less emphasis on the "my gift" and more on "singing voice gentler than any bird" as if you were on stage preforming in front of many people (because that's what Rika is doing.) and sorry if you already knew that but just a thought. So hope this helps a bit >.< and again I'm defianetly not a pro

Okay your auditions were really good I think you did a great job portraying Naraku, hmm the only reason I can think of you to get understudy and not Naraku is because you can hear your girl voice, this it probably really bad reveiw because I don't really know how to help with that but if you work on your masculinity more. Again this is a really bad review from me because you did great but I can't really think of anything to help... but maybe you'll get it next time! ^-^ Congrats on the understudy part you did great!

I love them very cute! Well let's see, the first line was very cute and well done, the second line had a puff and sounded like you were absolutely screeching but I guess that's what you were going for right? then you might have a been a bit low after the laugh or maybe not I don't have the clips so I don't know, the third line was a click disaster but that probably was you mouth being dry or sometihng because I get that a lot too, plus you sounded a bit stuffed up... and for the forth line you sounded very cute! maybe your voice was a bit scratchy who knows but other then that the acting was top notch and you were very cute! ^-^

These are my most recent auditions for Zakuro's "Full Moon wo Sagashite- Cute Cute Big Adventure" dub~
I like your interpretation of Meroko. The pitch works well, and you have good energy. I think you have the right attitude as well, but it's a little difficult to tell from the lines, being that half of them are silly noises. :S
Line 01: I agree that the line flows awkwardly. I think connecting "What do you want this early in the morning?" will help. Loved the little 'mmnaaa' as you were falling back asleep.
Line 02: Nice yappy dog impersonation, but I think actually saying 'bow wow' works better for comedy value.
Line 03: I really have no idea what is going on there, but it must be something silly! Actually, these noises have a lot of personality and suit the character well.
Line 04: On this I think the scream was a little too realistic. I'm thinking this is more of a comedy scene, so maybe make it a little sillier?
Quality-wise, your lines were nice and clear. I think that's it, so good luck!
fruitfly
05-27-2006, 10:44 PM
I hope no one objects to my seperating these into different replies. I write a lot, so I'd like to keep it organized. :S
My audition for Rika in Chinomi's CCS fandub~ This was not one of my better auditions and I may end up redoing them, so constructive feedback would be very helpful.
One thing I've noticed about you while just chatting on Skype is that your voice has a lot of natural attitude to it. Your vocal anime-archetype is the spunky, 'you know I'm better' chick, which makes you great for roles like Sakura (Naruto) and Asuka (NGE.) Most of it is actually in your inflection and where you place your accents (see Line 02.) I think your biggest challenge is toning down that quality to suit more laid-back or cutesy characters.
Rika is certainly more mature than her other classmates, but that doesn't really mean she sounds older. Your pitch works well, but the attitude made her seem too old. I think if you soften your voice a little and mellow her out, it would better suit the character. Let's go line by line.
Line 01: Shorten the 'sooo' and don't change the pitch on it. Accenting the 'so' like that really adds a preppy-teen vibe to the line.
Line 02: This one I'm going to break down into where you're accenting and try to explain how a younger, less mature person would do it. :S
"MY gift is a SINGing voice GENTler than ANY bird."
Instead, try:
"MY gift is a singing voice gentler than ANY bird."
Cutting down on the accented syllables helps to diminish the sing-song 'so there!' quality that is making her sound too old. Additionally, you have drawn out 'my' and 'bird' in a sing-song tone, which really adds that 'know-it-all' quality that you should avoid when playing softer characters.
Understand: I think you're awesome for the attitude you have, and it really works well for a lot of characters. However, if you mean to branch out into a different type of character (the girl-next-door, the shy lolita,) you'll need to watch your tone and inflection. I hope I haven't picked at you too much. Good luck with your auds!

Wow, Fruitfly! Thanks for the awesome in-depth review! I don't think you picked it apart too much, that's exactly what I'm looking for when it comes down to whether or not I need to redo my auditions.
Review on KitsuneSqueak//Rena:
Your tone was very nice for her; however, I think it would help if you leveled out the volume a bit, by use of dynamics processing/normalization or just trying to keep it at a closer volume level - ex; the laugh kind of hurt my ears and then I had to turn it way up again for the soft part afterwards. There were also some puffs/breath noises which could be fixed using a windscreen or pop filter.
Now, some more auditions of my own:

Haushinka
Well your voice suits the character really well, judging by the voice samples your voice was a bit higher or sounding a bit too young but I have yet to read the rules on auditioning for that project so I don't know the requirements of the voice. Anyways the first line was done really well I don't thinkanything was wrong with it and same with your second line, maybe a bit lower but I still have yet to read the rules. As for your third line you sound a bit too young and in the sample the japanese voice actress seems to be in more of a panic rather than a worried tone. Hope this helps! ^-^

Scarlotte
05-28-2006, 01:02 PM
Minkchan
Well I can't do a very good reveiw because I don't know the character's personality but thanks for telling me the project. Anyways I'll try to be helpful. So for the first line "to believe in God" was said very well I believe Misato was a quieter character? but maybe for the "not fear Him" you could've sounded more afraid and when you said "Him" you sounded a bit flat. and for "maybe we are no better than the enemy" you probably could've sounded more depressed especially for the word "are". Line two well you were yelling to lauch but maybe instead of starting out very loud you start with a powerful voice as if charging or something then when you say "launch" let go of everything you just charged up! ^-^ Hope this was helpful.
Lionfayt
Lets see, for Shindo your first line was good maybe you could've sounded more questioning when you said "strength" but other than that it sounded alright. Line two maybe if you try saying it as though you were stateing a fact, but then when you say "although I'm pretty sure I'm decently strong" maybe you should sound more reassuring rather than nervous, at least that's what I get from the samples. For line three maybe sound a bit more surprised when you say "what" and in a whinier tone yet still surprised tone say "I have to pay?!"
Now for line one with Sai sound a bit happier so when you do that line sort of give happy sighs through out it, now I don't mean pause and give a huge sigh but I mean do a couple of crying noises but end one or so of them with a bit if a small happy sigh (ya it doesn't really make sense does it...). Now for the second line you sound a bit emotionless, I relize the sample is sort of the same way but make it seem as though you just got over this huge disappointment or something so your quiet but there's still a hint or courage. Now for line three ya I think it's fine I think you got the emotion right! ^-^ Good luck with your auditions!
Jiffy
Well you sounded evil enough, ^-^but I don't know if that's good or bad. Now your emotion was on spot, but I agree with KitsuneSqueak your voice was or of rough and airy, maybe if it was a bit higher and more bratty or something?Sorry the picture makes him look like a brat >.< but this is my shortest review so sorry this probably isn't to great but you had very good emotion! ^-^
Jiffy
05-28-2006, 06:09 PM
Thanks for the help, you guys. If I ever get another shot at Nagi, I'll try a bit higher, bratty, and less rough. ^^

05-28-2006, 11:59 PM
Here are just a little add ons to some of the reviews:
Mink- You have wonderful emotion and a very cute voice, however, Misato voice is very mature and more of a medium to medium-low voice. Btw, it's so nice to hear you voice acting again!
Jiffy- Prooooject. XD! Even though we're infront of a mic, we have to project just like stage actors do~

I hope I dont upset anyone with my rampant honestness, there are some really talented people here! And you are all a lot better than I am at this ;)
Cristina: WOW!!!! You are really the master of sound effects.. like an english speaking version of Megumi Hayashibara!! I am blown away! The first line was phenomenal!!
The dog barking doesn't quite sound like a dog, but if you are voicing a character imitaitng a dog.. .well its good!
Kitsune: super-duper cute!! the laughter sounds great, and the bother line is great. but the two strung togehter is a little abrupt. THe laughter is really string, and hte bother line is a little too calm..
Haushinka: (Rika) Tonal quality is quite good.. in the first line the 's' sounds are too strong.. I haven't seen CCS, but if Rika is meant to be a little bratty, the punchiness of the voice matches it really well. If she's meant to be sweet its too punchy..
(Akari) third line needs to sound more panicked and worried.. She _thinks_ something is wrong (worried).. then realizes something is wrong (panic and worry!). Your Akari
sounds a little snooty, like forced nasaly, shes sticking her nose up at us.. is the character meant to be snooty? If so, you nailed it!
Mink: That was pretty good, but I think Misato is a more angsty character.. think about
her problems and her past.. and why she's such a rampant alcoholic.. Try to
feel what she feels.. The eva launch line needs to be more punchy and forceful.
The fate of the world is at hand.. feel it deep down inside and yell with all you
got.
Lion.. Your voice is fine, but you need a new mic, yours is a little echoey. I didn't
recognize your crying as crying (crying is probably the hardest thing to do well)
it sounded like you are trying to move a large stone..
Your shindo sounded very underconfident.. if thats how the character is meant to be
its realyl well done!!
Jiffy.. Not bad, but your voice sounds too friendly to be evil. :)
Masaka: I think your voice is good, and the emotion is good, but the mic or your
surroundings are very echoey, and distracting. It will be tough to get parts with
sound quality problems like this. Theres a wierd almost bubbly sound from line 3.
Anyways, here are some of mine for your perusal:

I think the problem here is with your mic quality...it sounds very echoey and metallic. There are also lots of clicks in your lines~ You have a good voice and good emotion. I would change the way you pronounced "Hikaru" in the last line though~ I know you're trying to pronounce it like the Japanese do, but it has to sound more subtle, like you're unaware that you're trying to pronounce it the Japanese way. I don't know if I did a good job explaining that, but if you're still confused, check out the way Haushinka said his name.

Your Akari Lines are fine and good but the 3rd line needed more emotion. if you done more emotion to the Hikaru! line. it would have been better.

-Hikaru: The voice sounded a bit too low and boyish for her, at least in my opinion. Also, you could definitely tell there was an accent, which could be a problem unless the character is specified to have one~
-Faye: These were pretty good, but they needed more emotion, and I think a slightly deeper tone would have worked better.

Masaka Naraku
Well over all you did a pretty good job, I suggest maybe a bit of a higher voice and maybe try to sound less mature, your mic quality was pretty weird in you first line but better for the rest so that's okay. I like your first line one A the best because it was right on with the emotion I beleive. Your line three was pretty good, good emotion and your voice was higher, but for line two I think you sounded sort of tomboyish and if you could sound a bit more femenin then it'd be great! ^-^
Well your emotion was on but I can't really say much about how it was to be said. Well the best advice I can give you is to sound more seductive, Faye has a lower more suductive voice so if you practice I bet you could be really good at her voice! ^-^
KitsuneSqueak
WAH! All of those characters... Okay *deep breath* Well for your Chiharu voice it might be a bit too scratchy but the emotion for all the lines were right on but both of you line 2's seemed a bit rushed so maybe if you slowed it down and sounded a bit more bitchy?
Dark well I like the voice sounded very good and the emotion was right on again, but I think you need to have a bit of a deeper and more mysterious voice...
Light well I like the voice I think it fits better, and you emotion was really good but maybe a bit more mysterious and if you made your second line more inquisitive it'd be awsome as well.
Mizuki, well if you made your voice deeper I think it would be better because then it'd be more teacher like i guess? Other than that you emotion for the second line could've been a bit better by sounding more cheerful so you don't lose the deep pitch and the matureity.
Noako, I really like the voice very cute! ^-^ I just think you could sound more worried and a bit more paniced for the second line then the emotion would be right on as well.
Rika well first off you didn't sound too old for most of your auds you sounded closer to too young >.< but that's no problem, well I really like the voice and the emotion was right on as well nothing much to say...
Yamazaki, ^-^ well you didn't sound too weird anyways that was the point right? I loved it you did a very good job playing as him maybe just practice you trying to be woman voice (even though you are one...)and it'd be perfect, oh and I think the your first woman try was the better one just wanted to say that
GravitasLost
PMed you ^^;
Cristina
Rena, well your voice is cute enough maybe a bit too mature but overall really cute, but for your first line I think the whisper wasn't needed, if you said "found" in a higher pitch then go back to the regular voice it could've helped. Line two well your first laughter sounded sort of forced, and your voice sounded a bit mature when you aasked about something bothering him. Line three well sounded too whispered again, I think if you practiced maybe being quiet or mysterious but not to the point of whispering it would of really helped these auditions. Line Four, really cute line I think this one had practically no problems so nothing for me to say.
Lui, well both lines were done really well I think your voice was really close to the original as well. Nothing else for me really to say. Wish I could think of something to help...

Scarlotte, you're so awesome. O_O
3 Cristina Points for you! Thanks for taking the time to thoroughly review my auds. What you said about sounding a little too mature for Rena was exactly what topleka said when she gave me her critique~

This thread is such a cool idea... >D I'm not sure where to begin reviewing auditions, though~ @_@;;
---
I'd like some reviews on my auditions for Honey from Ouran High Host Club... he sounds more feminine than other young boys, IMO, but I really need work on my young boy voices just the same; I can't get away from sounding like a girl. ^^;
http://media.putfile.com/windy_hunny_line1
http://media.putfile.com/windy_hunny_line2
http://media.putfile.com/windy_hunny_line3
If you don't know how Honey sounds, he's very similar to Momiji from Fruits Basket - they even have the same VA. XD So yea, it's that kind of high, sweet young boy voice.
Thanks in advance! @__@; I'll try to do some reviews here soon... not that I could be of much help to people like Cristina and Hau, who beat me times a thousand in any audition. XDD~!
Margo
05-29-2006, 09:49 PM
Wow, this is an AWESOME idea! I know that a lot of times I've sure wanted critiques on my auditions ^^;; And then I go annoy KitsuneSqueak and Mr. Jiffy XD
Cristina - Full Moon - Oh, my gosh! Those are SO awesome O_O I absolutely LOVE the third one! The sudden falling asleep in the first one is very funny, hee hee. The barking is so adorable too =O I...seriously can't find anything you need to improve on with these ones ^^;; Well, besides the pause in the first line thing that everyone else mentioned...
Haushinka - CCS - Hmm...I think that Rika could use a higher, younger voice, and more emotion could be put into the second line, more like you're in a play, like Scarlotte said, hee hee. They voice and emotion DO sound great, but just don't exactly fit this particular character ^.^ (I'm sure you CAN pull this character off though!)
Masaka_Naraku - Inuyasha - Whooooa, nice laugh, haha. I do agree that you can hear that you are a girl, but you did a nice job sounding evil, hee hee.
KitsuneSqueak - Higurashi - So cute! But evil... XD Which is exactly how she should be ^^;; I love the laugh! (Haha, your parents XD)
Haushinka - Hikaru no Go - Wow! The first and third are, like, perfect XD The emotion is VERY good, and the voice fits the character very well! The second line could have been a bit more nervous or worried, but other than that, GREAT auditions =D
minkchan - Eva-R - Well, I don't really know who Misato is, or how he/she should sound, but... I think that the voice is very cute, kind of a character who is very quiet, and to themselves >_> So...I hope that's what you were aiming for! They sound good ^.^ The yell is great =D
lionfayt - Hikaru no Go - For Sai...the crying sounds pretty good, but really for his first and second lines, you should be more dramatic because....Sai is a super dramatic character XD The third line has a small puff, and sounds like there are people in the background >_> For Hikaru... The "I've never played anyone" sounded kinda dull =3 But the rest is pretty good! =D
Jiffy - Mai Otome - Hmm...well, he's talking about Arika, not Akira (though, there is an Akira in the series, so I can see how that could be a common mistake ^^) *Cough* That doesn't really matter though ^^;; The first two lines were a little breathy (I think I did the same thing though >>), but the second version of the third line sounded clearer, and...yeah. ^^ Overall, they're pretty good auditions, Mr. Jiffy! =D
Masaka Naraku - Hikaru no Go - I like the third line ^.^ The second one...like I said to Haushinka, should be a bit more worried or nervous =3 I like the tone in the first line, though, hee hee. You sound very annoyed, hee hee.
GravitasLost - WHOA! That is SUCH a cool Ryuk O_O Seriously, that's like, how I imagined him to sound XD Whoooooa, awesome auditions =D
Masaka Naraku - Cowboy Bebop - Wow, I think that the tone of your voice sounds a lot like the original dub, hee hee. Your voice really fits Faye =D
Cristina - Higurashi - Haha! Nice laugh XD Also so cute but evil >_> But I really do like the laugh, hee hee.
Cristina - Kaleido Star - Whoa! These are, like, AMAZING! The first line sounds very mature and so nice! The second one just made me go O_O Like...aaaaaah, the expression in it is totally awesome >_< This is like 100/10 XD
Windy-chan - Host Club - Aaah! The Haru-chan's are so cute! The rest of the first line could have used a little more expression though =3 The second one sounds good though! Aaaaaah, so cute ;____;
That took a while, hee hee. I hope I didn't forget anyone D= (Well, except KitsuneSqueak's CCS...SO MANY! I'll have to do those later, sorry XD) And sorry if I was too hard on anyone @_@ Just trying to help ^^;; Whew, now that I'm all caught up, I should post some of mine =3;;

Hikaru no Go
Hikaru Line 01 (http://media.putfile.com/MargoHikaru01): My strength? I'm...not sure.
Hikaru Line 02 (http://media.putfile.com/MargoHikaru02): I've never played anyone, although I'm pretty sure I'm decently strong.
Hikaru Line 03 (http://media.putfile.com/MargoHikaru03): What?! I have to pay?!
Yeah...those were pretty bad XD;; I'm wondering if I should use a higher voice or a lower voice, or... *Dies*
Useless Animals
Kumane Line 01 a (http://media.putfile.com/MargoKumane01a) b (http://media.putfile.com/MargoKumane01b): Yo! Usahara! It's been awhile. Oh? A new face. (Happy)
Kumane Line 02 a (http://media.putfile.com/MargoKumane02a) b (http://media.putfile.com/MargoKumane02b): Hurray! Business completed! Usahara. I've got some saruzake left. Let's drink some together. (Happy)
Kumane Line 03 a (http://media.putfile.com/MargoKumane03a) b (http://media.putfile.com/MargoKumane03b): My soul has come out... (dazed out)
I really think I should redo that last one >>;;

Yamazaki Line 01 (http://media.putfile.com/MargoYamazaki01): Did you know that aliens enjoy corn on the cob? (normal)
Yamazaki Line 02 (http://media.putfile.com/MargoYamazaki02): P-please forgive us! I had heard that you disliked noisy gatherings so I-- (he sounds fake-sounding womanly in this one xD)
Mizuki Line 01 (http://media.putfile.com/MargoMizuki01): It suits you really well!

Windy
Hunny, well you definatly have cute down and you sound a lot like the Japanese voice, now for the first line I think you can be a bit hyperer, when your can haru-chan I suggest maybe being louder or sound more energenic then maybe less of a pause after you call out her name. You second line was cute too but you should try yawning while saying aww and maybe sound a bit more whiney. Your third line was done great so I don't think I can say much about it! ^-^
KitsuneSqueak
Kairi, well your emotion was right on for all the lines (as usual) but maybe if you tried a bit of a higher voice, and a bit more gentle, I havn't seen KH2 yet or one for that matter so I don't have much knowledge but Kairi seemed less energenic to me or at least a with a bit of a softer voice. Hope that helped ^^;
Sora, Well the first line had the right voice and emotion also the second was short and sweet. The third line though I think you needed to be a bit clearer on the emotion, I thought you might be trying to tell someone what happened but they don't beleive you, but I can't quite put my finger on it so if that was the case I suggest more emphasis one "thing" making it sound like you had no idea what it was as in none at all. ^-^ Other than that your voice sounded right! Oops missed the last two, okay well they were both done really well like your first two can't really say much...
Tidus, well if your voice was a bit lower but I can imagine it being hard to do that (I can't even get a young boys voice) as for emotion the first and third lines were right on with the confidence much like Tidus,the second line maybe when you said "is that really so scary" you could have said it in a less questioning tone and more of a make fun of tone but not over doing it though. Anyways I beleive I have nit picked enough, Good job! ^-^
Margo-Kun
First off I completely agree, too many >.< anyways here we go! ^-^
Hikaru, Well lucky for me your really good so this may be fast, now you have the right voice I think it's fine where it is, and right emotion for the three lines all I can suggest it being a bit more surprised and spazzy! ^-^
Kumane, line one, well the emotion was the same for both but maybe if you were louder when you said Yo! and then maybe a bit more playful, line two, well the Hurray was right on but maybe when you say you still have some of whatever you have left (pretty pro) you should sound maybe more play or make it sound like a treat or something. Line three well for one of them it sounded like you were about to laugh, what I suggest is that for the line you should sort of exhale and sound more exaughsted by the end of the line. hmm yep that's it.
Yamazaki, well your first line sounded really good, and I love your voice for the second line all I can suggest is maybe stumbling more and seem more nervous and scared. ^-^
Mizuki, hmm well your voice is right but you lack emotion, maybe for your first line seem more excited and cheerful, as for your second sound serious you were close but more on the dull side just really put some umph into it and picture yourself saying that to Sakura.
Meroko, again same with cristina your first line didn't flow very well, try to forget the "..." and use your higher voice but make it more whiney, then it should flow better. Well I like the B line better for your second line it sounds much cuter I suggest keeping it and maybe sounding more aggresive. As for line three well again I like the B better it's the higher pitch and I think it fits Meroko much more no complaits well done with the screaming. Line four well the first try A sounded much more natural and the second try sounded really airy but nice screams.
Takuto, well your voice was closer on the second try again lower but try smoother you sound like one of those announcers for sports television... (non-offensively though), for line two well not much to say about wee-ing so well done try to get lower though, but I know it's really hard your very talented to even get so close, line three well done I can't really think of much to say..., and line four well here I'll have to go with the first the second one you sounded quite manly maybe too mcuh... oh well the emotion was on spot! ^-^
Okay I am done took me about an hour and I have to go the bed hope this was alright for everyone, and I pray I didn't miss anyone! ^-^

GravitasLost
Well your voice sounded perfect, but you need way more emotion (you may have already heard this sorry if you did). For line one sound really confindent and powerfuland maybe put some emphasis on "are". As for line two maybe speed up the first couple of words by a little bit, then sound really proud and confident when you say "I'm a shinagami" and try to sound as if your mocking the person when you say "so that isn't going to kill me." ^-^ hope this helps.
Topleka
Well for your fist line when you said "rich people" you hit a different pitch and try to mumble it or like like your mumbleing it more (since that's how it's usually said). Line two was said maybe a bit fast and less perkier? yes okay that was bad advice, now line three, make it sound more like a statement rather than a question, Haruhi if sort of I don't know I'm wanting to say sarcastic but she's not really, maybe more on the always disturbed side, ah I'm not doing very good. As for the voice it does sound a bit girly mainly when you said "I don't like sweets much," but Haruhi is an insanely hard character to do I think, so good job but don't try to sound too husky your third line sounded a bit husky or airy, anyways Good luck! ^-^
Zelina

Im ganna start with the auditions on the beginning of the page.(Which are Crisitina's Rena and Lui auditions, and then I'll go down.
Cristina
Rena: I like the whisper/creepyness you gave the character for the first lines. The laugh was creepy, so that's good. I liked your fourth line a lot. Overall, they were good.
Lui: I loved this set. I totally love the voice and expression you gave to this character. It gave me a really good idea on who she is.
Windy-chan
Honey: So cute! I really love this set! I think a wee-bit more hyperness would give better emotion and excitment to the first line. Good job!
KitsuneSqueak
Kairi: I think the first line could've used a bit more emotion, that or I'm not excatly sure what the situation is. But other than that, I like the voice you gave this character.
Sora: I think you pulled him off well.
Tidus: I have't seen Tidus in the KH game, but I can tell for your interpetation that that he can a cocky SOB. (If I'm wrong-sorry). I think you did pretty well.
Overall: I think you did pretty well
Margo-Kun
Hikaru: I think you fit the character well. the only thing that kinda buged me, was the last line. I think that could've been more or a surprised tone. But yeah, add a wee it more energy for your character, and I think your good!
Kumane: I think it needed a bit more energy, and a bit more of surprise for the first line, Seemed a little plain. But the way you timed the line is good. For the second line, I think it needs a bit more excitment. I like line 3. Its very cute!
Yamazaki:I love these! Very nice. The second line need a bit more fear. But it still sounded good! And funnyishly cute- if that makes sense.
Mizuki: Great voice you gave her. Again, so lack in emotion. A little bit of happiness for line one, and a little more supportive/reassuring feel, and your good to go. Still- great voice!
Meroko: 1st Line didn't flow to well; but the B voice sounded better to me. I perfered line-2b. (For line 2). Sounded a bit fake, but it reminded me of Dino. *Very cute still* Line 3: I like line 2 the best. Seems a wee bt too flat, not anything big, just needs a little more umph.
Takuto: I basically liked the 2nd sets of the lines. Not much, but that you did good.
Overall: You give good voice to your chaarcter, but give them a it more life, a bit more emotion. Work on that, and I think you'll do fine.
Topleka
Haruhi: Line one needs to be mummbled, but then aagin, depensd on what the situation is. I think line 2 should be a wee bit lower. Not too much, but slightly. Same for Line 3. But I think you did good.
==================================================
Yeah.. sorry if they suck or don't make sense.

MIDORI (from Mai HiME)
01: I'm Midori Sugiura. I'm a high school teacher, even though I'm only seveteen, and I have the power of Highly-advanced Materializing Equipment. (http://media.putfile.com/midori1)

03: (in a panic) This isn't happening! (http://media.putfile.com/midori3)
03: (take 2) (http://media.putfile.com/midori3-b)

01: I am Shinku, the proud fifth Rozen Maiden. If any of you want to be my servant, you are welcome to form a contract with me. (http://media.putfile.com/shinku1)

Scarlotte
05-30-2006, 11:23 PM
Ayame-chan
sorry if I sounded really mean but thanks for fixing it! ^-^
Shinku, for line number one you certainly sound high class enough I like it the emotion is right on, line two was done really well also, I think I like line three the most, your emotion was on for all three lines, all I can suggest it trying a lower pitch.
Midori, well all three lines have awsome emotion again, maybe try to sound less girly? I don't know try to get a tomboy type thing going and they'll be beyond awsome! ^-^
Lionfayt
Same as Cristina. you need to really yell and be as loud as you can without busting your mic, honestly your voice is really good just really yell aand scream and stuff!

here are my Takuto auds for Zakuro's Full Moon Wo Sagashite "cute cute adventure" project(even though i sent them in alredy)..........i tried to go by the Japanese Takuto as best as i could, but in the scream ones i couldnt really hear him so, i just winged it basicly going with what i thought
line1: hey, let me go!
http://media.putfile.com/Lionfayt_Takuto_01
line2: *screams*

Cristina
05-30-2006, 11:33 PM
I think your voices matches Takuto pretty well, but you're holding back on all four lines to the point where it sounds like you're only whispering~ ;-;

05-31-2006, 12:09 AM
Scarlotte~
I think you have a very good voice for Kumanee! My main problem is the echoey quality in your recording, this is because I'm very picky about my mics~ >D;; I like the emotion in your lines, (especially the "business completed!") but I think that maybe the "a new face" part at the end of line one should be said more as a statement and not a question. (I'm basing this off of the way Nikki wrote the line.) I also want to point out that Usahara is pronounced "Oosahara" and not "Yusahara"~ ^^
I think that's it from me. :D
Scarlotte

Haushinka
05-31-2006, 01:58 AM
Ayame: It's really nice to hear you doing some lower pitched voices ^_^ You should do voices like that more often~ Midori was excellent. For Shinku, I'd suggest softening your voice a little because I imagine her to be a bit more quiet (then again, I've only seen like 2 episodes of the series.)
Auditions for Review:
Trying for Meroko in yet another Full Moon dub (http://rei-chan.net/hosted/Haushinka_Meroko-FMwS.zip)
(Warning: The second line contains fairly loud screaming. I know about the clipping/distortion, but I find it nearly impossible to fix unless I record at a very low volume. x.x)
Ayame

Heres My Tomoyo auddie Lines for KitsuneSqueak's CCS Fandub
Line 1
"Are you all right? Sakura chan?"
http://media.putfile.com/Tomoyo-1
Nice pitch but a little forced. Also the first few words seemed rush so take your time. Make her voice a little softer next time.
Line 2
"Sakura-Chan!!!"
http://media.putfile.com/Tomoyo-21[/ur]
[url]http://media.putfile.com/Tomoyo-22
In both of these you need to be a little higher (like your first line). It's yelling lines where people normally fall doing high voices so you can hear the strain here more clearly. You should also try and sound more distressed. After all this is Sakura, the center of your world, your scared for. ^^
Don't forget when your supposed to be yelling to just do it because there's nothing worse than that fake whispery yelling. (I should know, I did it all the time ><)
I think, with some practice, you could make a really adorable Tomoyo. Keep it up! ^__^
Now on to my auditions:-

Haushinka
Well you see,line one was very well done! ^-^ As for your second line it was awsome really good emotion and you have Meroko's voice down, maybe for line three you could've held out the last no for a bit longer but I don't really know how you supposed to say it so otherwise awsome emotion and same with line four, you have a very fitting voice for Meroko and your emotion was really well done throughout these auds.
Masaka Naraku
Well you have the high pitch incredably well, really nice range you got then, ^-^ Now I think you could've sounded a bit more worried and also maybe when you said are you alright you could've made it sound more like a question, for line two well your voice wasn't quite high enough and your mic sounded a bit weird, one thing the line was practically screamed so you definately showed panic but if you had practically screamed it those auds would've been so awsome! ^-^
Tamashii
Well for the first line I think bit bit of a deeper voice and you ended that lines really fast I didn't actually know what you were saying so slow down the ending a bit and then that line would be awsome! ^-^ Line two well the beginning was good too but sound more challengeing when you say "ready to show us what you got" say it more as it you don't think he can do it and then this line will be awsome as well!

Hey, Why not. I'll post some auds here for reviewing :D
These are my auds for Koi wa a la mode ending song for Tokyo Mew Mew. They have speaking lines and one singing line for each character... I'd love critique on both <333
Ichigo (http://media.putfile.com/Ichigo-1-Koi-wa), Lettuce (http://media.putfile.com/Lettuce-1-Koi-wa), Mint (http://media.putfile.com/Mint-1-Koi-wa), Pudding (http://media.putfile.com/Pudding-1-Koi-wa), and Zakuro (http://media.putfile.com/Zakuro-1-Koi-wa).
I'm currently singing the whole song... so when I finish that hopefully I'll post it X:

^-^ I like your voice!
Lettuce, well your speaking line had her voice really well and your acting was really great but maybe try singing in a higher pitch?
Mint, nice voice maybe try to make it sound meaner or more snobby adn your singing voice better fits mint! ^-^
Pudding, well your emotion was awsome but overall try a higher voice and maybe a bit perkier, ^-^ let out all the happiness are hyperness possible when auditioning for Pudding!
Ichigo, again same with lettuce your speaking voice, and your emeotion right on but try to get a higher singing pitch
Zakuro, well done now try a bit lower, other then that you have awsome auditions good luck! ^-^

Cute voice, but your first line doesn't sound like you're really yelling it out... maybe saying it enthusiastically, but not yelling it energetically; practice putting more power behind your voice while staying in character, and being louder.
In your second line, you need to have that tone of justice a lot of magical girls have - like you're accusing the bad guy and you're angry about it. Think, "Everyone's having fun, and you're not gonna ruin it, because I'm gonna stop you!" That kind of attitude. You also need to enunciate more; the line lost its flow because you mumbled it a bit. Again, more vocal power, too.
Third line - again with the pronounciation. It seems you have a slight accent, but that means even moreso you need to nail those consonants. I'd suggest some vocal warm-ups to help you get used to it. It doesn't seem like you're speaking from your diaphragm, either, which could have a big impact on how weak or strong your voice sounds, and how your speaking flows. Right now your lines are very choppy, so listen maybe to how other VA's talk during their lines, and pick up hints on emotion and making your dialogue sound more natural and continuous.
You might also want to consider raising your pitch for Ichigo, since most people seem to prefer a higher, younger-sounding voice for her.
Basically, more energy, enunciate, keep it sounding natural, and maybe go higher with the voice.

Saiunkono-
Shuurei 4- I'm a bit confused on the emotion of this one. On the audition it says she's kind of sad, but this sounds more like she's encouraging him. There could either be two situations for this line: One, she wants him to be something else but he wants to be an army official, so she's upset. Two, he wants to be something else but she wants him to be an army official. Of course, she'd only be sad if it were the first one. So I'm thinking maybe make her sound a little less confident, or maybe signaling that she's given up.
Shuurei 1- Cute, I liked this line. Nice emotion and such. I think you could be perkier on the first part of the line, like she's the one all excited about it. I liked this line though <3
Shuurei 2- This line was good. I imagined her to be more angry, and in that case the line delivery should've been different, but I like the confusion and the line works with that delivery :D
Shuurei 3- Really good! :D Your voice got squeakier though-- I know it's hard to prevent (My voice gets squeakier when I yell, too) but try not to do it if you can help it because it makes the voice sound inconsistent. I think another way to deliver this line might be to make the first 'I can't believe this' quiet, then the second one louder, kind of like a build. This works too though :D
Ryuushi 1/2- Realllyyy cute. I really really liked these :3 Good emotion and such on the second line, and the voice actually sounds convincing.
I hope I helped <3 Overall, pretty good job.

Honestly I agree with windy, so much so I can't really add anything else ^^; sorry about this...
Haushinka
Boy 2, well first off I didn't even know who you were trying out for and I thought you sounded like a boy so ya, really good voice and your emotion was very well done notthing I can really say.
Konaha, really good voice, the japanese sounds more tomboyish but your not suppsoed to sound exactly like them right? so again really good emotion but I suggest stepping it up a notch I mean I bet you can be more whiney for line one, and same you can really go at it with line three and line two as well, so maybe be REALLY out there, that's all I can think of ^^;
Ryuushi, wow just wow amazing yell, you kept the voice and could act really well *praises* ^-^ anyways I really like your young boy voice, all I can say is maybe a bit more excited for the first line but honestly nothing big at all, good job! ^-^
Shuurei, well for line one the japanese sounds as though they are yelling at Seiran, other than that you certainly sounded determined enough! Line two, well for "what is it" you probably could've sounded more pissed off as though someone just disturbed a really important phone call. Wow really good job for line three I could hear the almost crying in your voice, very well done! ^-^ and for line four well it sounds really well done I can't complain here so good job and good luck with the casting! ^-^

These are my auditions for LoH's DNAngel dub. I've already gotten a critique from her, which was very helpful, but I'd like to hear your opinions as well. ^^;
http://media.putfile.com/Jaelaa-DNAngel-Auds
In order of appearance in the clip:
Daisuke, Satoshi, Elliot, Second Hand of Time, Emiko, Mio, Risa, Little Boy, Little Girl, Freedert. I saved her last because that's the role I want most. Hehe. ^^; I've separated the different lines with one sound and the characters with another, and I've used a third tone to distinguish the engin of the clip. I hope that's not too confusing-- I did it so you'd be able to distinguish between them.
Looking forward to your comments!

oh, sorry for the double post but.....this will be my first critique on here....i thought your Daisuke could've been a little higher and it sorta sounded like your Satoshi and your daisuke needed to sound a little more innocent kinda....i thought your Satoshi was better than your Daisuke, cuz you got that mysterious kinda feel....your Emiko and Mio were pretty good...i thought your Second Hand of time and your Risa sorta sounded the same.......but your auds were good.....i think your should work on the Boy voices more and what not.....but still it was pretty good....sorry if this doesnt help...i'm kinda bad at giving critiques, but i try and be as critical on them as possible when asked to.....so, i hope this helps..somewhat

Thanks a lot for your input! I really helps me a lot, actually. I think I'll redo all of my male auditions, and maybe a couple others.
I have some input on your, too:
I think the main problem was that it seemed like you were holding back. I heard some background noise at some point, so I'm guessing that there were other people in the room or nearby, and you didn't want to disturb them. Mainly I just think you'd do a lot better if you were alone in a quiet room so you wouldn't have to hold back emotion on some of the lines.
Also, I think a few of your Daisuke and Satoshi lines were a teensy bit rushed.
My favorite audition out of yours? Dark. I think you nailed his personality pretty well, and the voice sounds very fitting for his character.
So yeah, my main verdict is that you're a talented voice actor with a nice voice range who needs some quiet recording time alone. ^^;
I hope that helps, and thanks again for your comment.

Well for Hikaru, your voice sounded a bit raspy, but your emotion was good there were a couple of puffs but nothing too big, all I can say is try to make your voice alittle less raspy mainly for line one though.
As for Harumi really well done you are definately more comfortable with girls voices I'd say, your emotion was awsome so nothing really needed to be redone in those lines.
The boys, I really like the third boy, the first boy was pretty good but with the second boy maybe try to sound more bratty and sort of sound superiour, anyways hope this stuff helps.
Jaela
Well nice mixing, ^-^ as for Daisuke, I like the voice better than anything I can do, maybe a bit too low, he is high spirited like you said so I suggest a tine bit higher but only a suggestion, also when you talk about the makeup you did sound too distressed so maybe put a bit more emotion into that line.
Well now I suggest a bit lower voice the emotion was better for him, just if you could go maybe a bit lower and more evil? I guess, then I'd bet they could be really good.
Elliot, now your voice was really good for him I can suggest is sound more worried and careful/loving when you say "please look after freedert" then that's about it.
Second hand of time, well nice voice but I heard a lot of static in the background I think... other than that really good maybe a bit more emotion even though she's mysterious put in some more emotion.
Emiko your emiko voice sounded a little royal, I liked the emotion but I think you need to sound a bit more down to earth and motherly ^^;
okay so for Mio, you sound very cute and your first line was really well done, although your holding back in your second I think, really be dramatic and bust out that inner screamer in you (if that makes any sense) and you'll do awsome
Risa, you have a cute Risa but sometime you sounded a bit mature, try to sound a bit more girly, as for emotion you did really well on these auds, nothing for me to say.
Your little boy voice was very well done same with your little girl voice, you really have nothing to improve for those.
Freedert, well your voice sounded really nice, all I can suggest in mic quality I think there was something weird with the first line, and I think you can be more loving, say it as though your trying to cheer someone up, because I think that's how it's supposed to be said, and for your second line it was well done, nothing to be said from me.
Lionfayt
Daisuke, well you had a lot of puffs just try to not get so many, as for the voice, you had his voice really well done, all I can say it for line three, EXPLODE!!! if you send in redo's you better make sure you are paniced and surprised, I want to hear you almost YELL, so overall you just need to be out there and pretent the situation did actually happen and say that into the mic.
Dark, well more emotion for line two and four, your voice is really good again maybe a bit lower, and you still need to be rid of those puffs, other than that I want you to EXPLODE! Please you really need to exagerate the emotions so that everyone can connect and understand, I mean for line four sound more serious and a bit frustrated and for line two sound more worried or paniced or somthing.
Daiki, YAY! These were amazing I loved the voice and your acting was very good, maybe try a bit lower and more serious considering his background and these would be awsome!
Kosuke, well your voice for him was really good and same with your acting, this was a really good job on your part, so try not to get that one puff and those auditions would be really awsome as well!
Satoshi, well if ou maybe sounded a bit lower, all I can say is the emotion was good but try to sound more cold and suave, maybe a bit more serious? oh well but your emotion was good too, just watch those puffs.
Krad, well I suspect you can sound more evil right? just try to get a more evil lower tone and then your voice will be right on. As for emotion line one I suggest a smaller break before you say "master Satoshi". as for line two I heard backgrund stuff and some puffs so try a bit harder with that but your emotion was pretty good, Line three well pretty good well try working on your evil laugh a bit, although I really can't do one either but try and I like the way you said "For now." and for line four, well sound more sad and lonely. Oh and try to talk for a bit to get a better british accent, that's what I did and I like it. So just practice it maybe watch a bunch of british movie or something?
Mr. Hiwatari, well your emotion was very good all I can suggest is that you work on those puffs again these auds were really well done better than some of the others so just really work on those puffs.
Elliot, aww I love them, nothing to work on again just try to get those puffs gone then these qould be so awsome! ^-^ Good luck!
P.S. next time you give auds try to choose the ones you want to most and that way I won't have to review every single thing you say >.<
Haushinka
06-09-2006, 08:20 PM
Cristina - I think your Hikaru sounded a little too boyish ^^; Also the lines sounded a little rushed, like you were recording in a hurry or something. When you redo, if you try with a slightly younger tone and really focus on getting into the character, I think that would help a lot.
For the Pretty Sammy lines-
Boy 1 was good ^^
Boy 2 could have sounded a little more..older and boy-like?
Boy 3 was good also, I liked the "nerdiness", lol.
Hope that helps!

06-09-2006, 08:25 PM
WOW, Thanxz Scarlotte for taking the time to review my long auds.....and sorry, i'll try next time, if i aud for alot of people, to just pick the characters that i really want out....but thanxz again, those comments really helped....i think from your critiques basicly my main issue is just with the Puffs.....i'll work on those.....and the screaming too i'll work on that alos....i think i should really redo my auds, do you think i should redo all of them?
Scarlotte
06-09-2006, 08:37 PM
No don't redo them all, I think you could do a really good Elliot and try to redo the ones you really want I suggest redoing one of the people you really want but only a maximum of three because your old auds will still be kept too. So not all of them or else you may drive LoH a bit crazy with her tigh schedual! ^-^
Anyways now for my Erstin auditions, I think I sound just a bit young but I would also like some other thoughts! ^-^

They were pretty good but in your second line I think you could have been more enthusiastic, because you sound a little tired ^^; Also I heard a couple of sounds in the background, like clicking or a chair or something...not quite sure what it was.
GravitasLost
06-10-2006, 11:12 AM
Again, my apologies if I'm being too harsh with any of you.. But I know you wouldn't post here unless you wanted an honest review.
Scarlotte (Kumanee): The recording is really echoey, Line 1: I think you may be shouting a little too much. Line 2, what you might want to try is to think about How much you want Yuzuhara to drink with you.. try to convince him as if he has his arms crossed and is pouting, and doesn't want ot drink.. You have to make it sound like its the best thing ever, don't just say it, try to convince him! However, the tone of you voice is very natural sounding. Line3: don't just lengthen the lines.. more emphasis on soul..
Lionfayt (Takuto): I can really tell you are trying to stay quiet in most of your lines, I'm not sure about your setup or situation, but if you cant VA loud where you are, maybe its best to drive someplace where you can. I'm not sure what the context of the second line is, are you supposed to be drowning? it sounds like that. I think one thing that will help you alot is to
close your eyes and imagine yourself as the character in the situation, and really feel what he is feeling. Draw on your own experiences if you can..
Haushinka (Meroko): A great job. the thing that makes the last line really work is how you are breathing into it, as if you are sighing when you read it.
Masaka (Tomoyo): You really did an excellent job with the acting.. maybe you cut your clips a little short.. but the flangey mic is really limiting you. I can hear your accent just a little bit on the 'i' sound in all right.. its sort of morphs into an 'ee'. Although I think it actually sounds pretty good, and adds a unique touch.
Tamashii (Imai): Youre reading these lines way too fast. Think about what is happening, and how the character is reacting.. especially the surprise element. The last word has an 'aw' sound like
gawt rather than got.
Icy: all your singing voices sound good.. but identical, not really in the voice of the character.. granted its _really_ hard to sing in character.
Your acting parts sounded great as far as emotion goes, but your mic is echoey.
Masaka: (Ichigo) Its not bad, but maybe try to be more punchy and energetic for this character. Also your accent comes out really thick here.
Maybe try substituing vowel sounds and make your constants fade smoother.
Haush: (Shuurei) Line 1: Try to emphasize either time or work depending on what you want to imply to seiran, the line sounds too matter of fact as it is. Line 2: perfect Line 3: a little too high.. line 4: try to sound more sorry, as if you are apologizing to seiran to try and make him feel better.. Poor seiran maybe he's really hurt.. a smoother tone in your voice would help.. Then try to make it sound happy that he can support himself as an official..
Haush: (Ryuuki) For your boy voice, you take on an accent on certain sounds that makes it a dead giveaway you are acting far outside your normal voice. Your 'iy' sounds sound like 'aw' sounds. "Then I'll become" sounds like "Then awl become". Your 'o' tends to sound like a 'ou' also..noble sounds like "nouble". Still though as far as tone and intonation go.. you have the boy thing down pat, its that natural punchiness to your intonation that works. Once you fix the vowel thing I think youre voice will be indistinguishable from a young boy.
Haush: (Kohana) Line 1 and 3 are perfect.. LIne2 sounds like you are complaining about being cute when blushing.. More happy, increasing pitches would help..
Haush: (Boy2) Line 1 and 3 are perfect.. line2 the oo sounds in movies sounds like an ew. It makes him sound like a valley girl (but as a boy!!)
Cristina: (Harumi) Line 1: the second one was better sounding.. like a teacher almost. Line 3: the partial laughing works really well.. very professinal sounding! Line2: the nervous surprise is conveyed perfectly.. you are excellent with this!!!
Cristina: (Hikaru) : Line 1 and 2 the word "sure" sounds like "shrr".. Something about the quality of your voice really does not sound like a boy.. I think its too smooth, hmmm but I'm not sure.. try experimenting with intonation.. like.. "I've NEVER played A_N_Yone.." even try being a little whiny.. Hikaru is pretty young. Also in line three and the pretty sammy auds you are doing the girl-boy-frog thing, trying to roughen your voice.. It sounds a little more like a woman that has smoked for a while. I think intonation can help more in sounding boyish rather than raspiness.
Also younger kids can have a slight speech impediment that makes them sound younger.. maybe mimicking that might be a interesting thing to try.. Maybe you are speaking too clearly to sound kid like. As far as emotion goes, you did an awesome job. I hope I'm not being too rough.
Jaela: its tougher to review with them all strung together, if you break them apart I can review each one better. Your Mio, Freedert, and second hand of time sounded really good.. Your male voices don't sound male though... its tough for me to pinpoint why.. its something in the intonation and pitch changes in the middle of words that makes it sound female. Maybe starting each word higher and pitching down as you speak might do it.. A lot of what I told Cristina applys to your male voices too..
OK.. thats it for now.. I really hope I'm not being too harsh.. I'm really trying to just lend a helping hand..
I'll try to do more later starting with your Daisuke Lionfayt..

Cristina & Haush: always happy to help.. Just PM me if any of you (or any of you) would like a more detailed review on anything. I actually enjoy reviewing clips, and studying naunces in human voices.. I'm pretty fascinated by it..
will do some more reviews in a bit... Mandiiv your cheese clip made me laugh so hard my kidneys hurt!!

Okay!
Mandiiv
Well for Manon, the japanese voice is much smoother I much say and a bit more energentic, so maybe that could be helpful?
For shin the voice was very cute but maybe try to sound a bit happier as you know you just recieved a gift so it's like a special surprise so be happy about it!
Kumanee, well I think you sounded a bit braggy, if you were a bit friendlier and cheerful those auditions would have been absolutely awsome!
Meroko, background music? Oh well I don't know if that effected it or not but at the begining maybe if you sounded a bit more braggy near the end these auds would've been awsome.
Saga, well you're emtoion was right on for these auds but I think if you sounded a bit younger and if your pitch was a bit higher you would've been even closer.
Aoyama, well good emotion but you still soudned a lot like a girl, so I suggest practicing or something, but at least you can do a boy's voice ^^;
Cheese, well I have absolutely no idea what this was for, nice though but serious what was this line about?
Sphnx's Daughter. Well very cute, I think you had the right voice but your last line probably could've been improved although I don't know what the lines were though, so sorry ^^;
Kyle, well your voice was quite husky maybe a little less, and you were way to calm, try to put emotion, one of you friends is dieing and your asking the gods (I think) back for his time, so you really need to burst out with this line.

For Tina Foster well since I have no idea what the voices are like all I can say is maybe put in more releif, or act as though they had just saved your life or something.
Miyabi, Well I suggest going a bit lower and sound a bit more mature, as for emotion maybe be more serious then I think they'd be awsome.
Koaru. Hmm, well I heard you try to get the boy voice but it doesn't sound very natural, I suggest some practice that way you can get more confortable or something, but good try better than what I can do! ^^;
Random girl, well I suggest a higher pitch and be in more of a panic as in you aren't where you want to be or something and you know, you have to hurry ^^;
Taeko, probably one of the best out of thesse auditions, ^-^ You have a good high voice and your emotion was really good so nothing I can really say about these ones.
Miyuki, well the first few works sounded aort of funny, I think they seemed a bit forced because of the high pitch, but when you said "delicious" your voice sounded so cute and if you cute keep the pitch and do th line with the same cute emotion I bet they'd be really great! ^-^
Sakuraba, well your emotion was right on, all I can say is if you pitch was a bit more energenic? anyways if but a bit more energy into you're voice I bet they could be really good! ^-^

x.x Eeek... well, sometimes I get very disoreintated with auditions because many times the context of the lines isn't given, nor is an audio clip. And I'd wish some auditioners would label the lines as being from certain episodes in projects where mult episodes are being done, so I don't have to watch all 5-10 episodes to find the characters lines x.x
But thank you so much! I know I'm very green and need alot of improvement, and your comments are so welcome.
x_x ack, and I'm so out of touch with anime lately that I don't have instant recognition/familiarity of characters on my side like others do.

I know this is wrong to ask this, but I don’t want Freedert to belong to him!” has exclaimation marks, so even if you did or didn't watch the episode if you see exclaimation marks it means there is more energy needed in the emotion for the line, paniced, angry, hyper, whatever so if you run into other projects without descriptions or voice clips looks at the punctuation, then say the line and picture what moment someone would say this and in what sort of way, then TA-DA an awsome line! ^-^ so now that I have talked a lot I shall be quiet. *don't kill me for saying this incase you already knew it*

Well the first line was too fast, I get what you were doing though because you have to say it definsively but maybe keep the attitude bit slow it down just a bit because just by listening to it I had no idea what you said ^^;. Line two, really well done I can't really think of anything to say to improve this line, line three nice, I suggest maybe a bit bigger as in make it last about half a second longer or something because the yelp was so short it would be hard to understand what had just happened. Hope this helps! ^-^ Good luck!

Ja, but I think the problem with that is, I still don't know the context. I don't want to give a 'hyper' performance for an 'angry' line. ^.^; Not criticizing you, though! I think I'm just going to start giving multiple takes on certain lines if I don't understand the context. That should help!

Hiromu, well your voice is pretty good I suggest sounding a bit happier especially for the first line, you sound well not happy at all, your supposed to almost sing it so maybe try singing the line first to get the feel then do the voice and sort of sing it. ^-^ Line two well all I can suggest is put more emphasis in "MY" as if you'd kill someone right then and there other than that good line, well for line three you could hear your regular or close to it voice coming through, all I can suggest is say "THIS" as though you have just discovered something very important other than that this line was pretty well done.
Sei, pretty good, your emotion and voice were very good only complaint, the puff but other than that great job! ^-^
Young Nao, well your first line was very well done same with your second I would've gone with more hatred in the second line but I really like the way you did it! ^-^
Young Sora, well the first line could've been more confindent I suggest maybe sound more daring or brave but your second line was quite well done good job! Hope these critiques were alright. ^-^

OK, this is from the Newgrounds Voice Acting Club. For those of you who have never heard, this is The Raven, by Edgar Allen Poe. I pounced on the chance to do this because The Raven is my favorite poem ever. I recorded this whole poem because he said I would basically get the part, but I consider it more as an audition than a completed work. Tell me what you think (warning 7 minutes + in all)
The Raven, performed by Moose (http://media.putfile.com/The-Raven-59)
I did each section stanza by stanza, instead of line by line so I could get the rythem of the poem down. I accidentely changed some small parts of it, but no one will notice. The voice changes throughout, but I liked it. Any criticism is welcomed and encouraged. Thanks.

Dubby
Well your first line had a lot of background noise and it sounded okay considering I don't know chinese so I wouldn't be able to help much, I beleive you missed her second line... you recorded her thrid and labelled it your second >.<
as for Shusui, you first line you didn't sound surprised at all really, so maybe sound a bit more surprised ^-^ your second line was done pretty well I can't really say much but mybe sound more strict or not whatever you wish. ^-^

Moose-la-skroddle: Wow! That was wonderful, you kept the rhythm and the emotion was good. The only thing I'd have to get you about is that the mic quality seems a little ... metallicy like you noice reduced too much, other than that, it was awesome! =D
Skrinkle-la-dub:
Kourin: Wah! Cute!!! XDD I like the emotion in the 1st line and the tone of your voice, but there's a lot of noise and it sounds like someone is talking in the background. XD For the second line, I'd say add a little more emotion, it says to sound distressed, but it still sounds kind of shy to me. Also, I can hear when you click the mouse, so be sure to click before you say the line, and after you say the line, not in between, ok? Oh! And also there's a line 2 that you skipped where you're supposed to sob softly, I think.
Shusui: Again, I love your tone, but the first line could sound a bit more surprised, and the second line, I really like!
About the noise, do you know how to noise reduce? What program do you use to record in?

I agree. It's just hard to review stuff that you don't know about. Like if someone auditions for a really not-known anime, you can't really tell them about their voice matching the characters, (which is usually really important)
Well, for you scarlotte . . .
Your first line was the best. I liked the emotion. However, "the Earth" sounded a little forced. I would suggest letting it flow more easily, and not using as big of a space between the two words.
Your second line was fairly bland. The voice was good, but you needed more emotion.
For the third line, was that comma supposed to be a period, because the sentence didn't sound right. The acting was fairly good though.
And now for mine . . .
These are for a Bleach fandub.

Wait a sec, why is this in the fun thread? Shouldn't this be in the VA Discussion or something? Oh well, here goes the criticism.
FMA: The volume was too low, and you sang off tune some times. Other than that, you have a nice voice and it was very good.
Masaka: I didn't care for your Ichigo. It was too emotionless, and there were too many puffs. However, your other one was good. You talked a little too fast at some parts, but it was, overall, still very good.

Scarlotte
07-12-2006, 10:18 PM
It's on the fun board because, well it is. >.< Anyways time for me to get to work.
Moose
Ichimaru, well pretty good, nice flow, not much to say considering it's just that one line but pretty good overall.
Renji, hmm, well your question part was good but maybe put a bit more yelling, you sound frustrated but add a bit of a spaz to it, when you said "that" you had the yell, so really try to start off with a yell as well. >.< Hope that helped.
Hitsugaya, hmm, well your emotion was very mad. ^-^ Although as for voice I think if you could maybe go a bit higher to sound more young, also the pause between "Daiguren Hyourinmaru" may have been a bit too long, even for an attack and such it was still a bit too long >.<
Taniguchi, well pretty good voice, your emotion was also pretty good but when you say "I know this from previous experience" you need to sound more cocky, as in there is no one better at picking up chicks ^-^ Because it's so true. ^.~
Iroh, ha that was good, you make a way better old man than I could ever do, just me I've tried. >.< So ya can't really say much else.
Sokka, well pretty good, you sounded complainy and ervything so good job, especially since it's in japanese it's hard to get good emotion.
FullMetal Alchemist
Well I couldn't find the thread anywhere, ^^; but here are some thoughts, well I think at the begining you may need to project a bit more, if you were projecting (hard to tell when your just listening from a clip) maybe put a bit more effort, you need to feel what your singing about, the first few verses it was also hard to tell what you were saying, so maybe try to speak a bit clearer, okay well I could go on forever being really nitpicky but I'll make a quick note, practice a few more times, be so loud you annoy everyone in the house ^-^ At the end though you did really get into the song and were doing really well, so just keep that energy through out the song! ^-^ You're a very good singer so I think this can be a sinch! ^-^
Masaka Naraku
Well, Mizuho is a teacher so for your first line kinda be all ^^; like. (yes I refer to that as a description) Anyways, try to sort of nag but ya, I don't know the right word to describe that face. Anyways line two, well for your voice I'd say try a bit deeper although she has a higher voice you need to be deep-high so that you sound more mature and adult like. As for emotionbut more excitment into "I know! Do you want me to come over and cook?" also, it sound like you were whispering so don't be afraid to be loud, being loud and outragous is what gets you parts! ^-^
Ichigo, well work on the puffs as has been said before, maybe try to be a bit louder, your voice sounded very good for her but maybe try to sound more like a know it all, at some points it sounded like you were mumbleing but that's why I said louder >.< So yep that's all I have to say! ^-^

1. You pronounced Hyourinmaru incorrectly

Masaka.. that's her honest critique - take it, learn something from it.. instead of saying, "No, you're wrong." Actually take the time to consider what she's saying because there's, more than likely, a lot of truth behind it.

Masaka Naraku:
You needed a lot more emotion. Especially with the second and third line. The space for "Bankai, digurin, . . ." was way too short. You needed to space it out a little more. You also sounded to womanly in it.
ah....... I don't really know what Hitsugaya sounds like
You should of looked it up on Youtube. That's what I did. Episode 60 of Bleach is up on youtube already. In fact, Erica Mendez does that line 2&3 in one of the scenes of a Episode 60 dub I saw on there.
Masako-Kun:
Your English accent definitely showed in the first two. I didn't really care for it Kyon, but it definitely works for Itsuki. Your Mojojo was perfection. It sounded exactly as I would picture it. Great job.
Fairuza:
Your Chocolate Misu was fairly good. I've never seen the show, but you voice was good. I just suggest turning your input volume down just a wee bit. Your Benio voice was good too, but you just needed to turn your input volume down.
Scarlotte
07-17-2006, 07:54 PM
Fairuza
Chocolate Misu, well your emotion sounded fine, but your volume was a bit weird, it sounded like you were moving back and forth from the mic and that made be unable to even figure out what you were saying. ^^;
Benio, actually I quite liked your voice for this character I thought it suited quite well, but for both line you needed to lower he volume a tiny bit so that the mic doesn't strain and make that buzzing noise, plus there was an odd beep in the midlle of your third line.

For the characters Collette and Raine,I thought you had a great voice for both of them. I thought that Raine's 2nd line needed more emotion to it.I kinda felt that you were holding back a bit, kinda hesitated.But the tone was pretty nice though.^^

Colette, well over all your acting was quite good. ^-^ But you might want to sound a bit higher, also you didn't quite sound young enough, but with some more practice it shouldn't be to hard to reach. ^-^
Raine, well maybe sound a bit more mature and serious, also I don't quite know what emotion you were aiming for with her second line but really try to put yourself in her shoes at the moment, just picture something that would make you say that line.

Well for line number one you might want to sound a bit more aggrivated, it's hard to catch the mad type emotion that line. ^^; As for line two, well you can sing really well, I mean really well, but the girl's ten so you may want to tone down the singing a bit, I mean I don't know what the producer thinks about this line but I think your projection brings out more of your mature voice which may be a set back. ^^; As for line three it was don't really well, I really say much you got her emotion right on, and you voice for her is very good. ^-^

Ed, well for line one I prefferred your second line because it souned more inteligent and less like just reading it, as for line two I think I liked your first line better, as for when you said water, you didn't sound too desperate so really try to sound more in need of water. Line three well in the lines you forgot to say desert, as for emotion I liked your second line better I thought it suited the moment a bit better.
Rose, well for your first line maybe sound a bit more confused and spaced out also maybe say the line a bit slower, for line two, well the emotion was good maybe a bit less of a pause bit "or try to" but maybe just slow down a bit more again, line three, well you can be louder then that right? You were really good with Ed so try to be louder with that line as well.
Cornello, well your first two line sounded alright, you sound very much like a father, but maybe try to sound a bit more evil on your third line. ^-^ well hope that helps!

FMA Ed line 1 -
For this line I thought Ed's voice was kinda deep but I thought that your intention of sounding intellect was really nice and seemed to flow very well.
Ed-line2 -For this line,I felt like you rushed this line a bit. You had the desperate,exhaustion in your voice when you said "sigh,water.I can almost hear it " If you slowed it down a bit with saying this part of the line and made this line sound a bit more tired and with an almost out of breath sound to it,I think you could pull it off just fine!^^
Ed-line3 -I thought this line sounded pretty good! The emotion you had was there at it's finest and I thought your voice had raised up a bit which made you sound very cool!
Gluttony -Haha,this line really made me laugh in a very good way.^^
I love your voice for Gluttony,it sounds very eerie as well as comedic.:) And again,I'd have to say your emotion for this line was at it's finest!Very nice!
Kingdon Hearts dub-Riku -I thought your Riku lacked a bit emotion and your tone was very deep,almost monotonous. If you were to raise your tone a tad bit more and grasped some emotion for this line,I'm pretty sure you'd do a stellar job.^^
Zangya
07-22-2006, 11:21 PM

As Frairuza said, your Ed was alittle bit too low. But the emotion was great. =3
The second one...I think at the part where you said "Wait a second! I can hear it!" was alittle too fast. But everything else was great.
I enjoyed your third line. That was definatley the right emotion. Great job! =D
Gluttoney
You rock. that's all I have to say. XD
But what i'm really trying to say Moose, is that I hate you because your Ed was good.
So try to make it so that your Ed won't be good, okay? XD (j/k)

Ed 1 - Like the others have said, I think it's just a bittt too deep. But the articulation and emotion were extremely well done!
Ed 2 and 3 - I loved these lines! I think you really embodied the rushed, anime "ZOMG! PANIC!" vocals and it was hilarious! Still a little deep, but who cares.
Gluttony - Hah, WOW! Awesome!! I loved it!
Riku - I also haven't played KH so I don't have any good advice, sorry!
Full Metal Alchemist
Ed - You really took the advice well and he improved a lot! I'm not sure exactly what you changed but it sounds amazingly better! The second and last line are especially good! You'd make a good Ed!
Rose - I think the best thing you could work on is unifying her sound. For example, in one clip you have her voiced very high and in the other it's quite low. Just make sure they all match so the producer gets a good idea of what your sound is. I think the last clip is a tad too high but the rest sounds great-I especially like the second clip! Good job!

ED: You definitely got the laugh down, but you pitch was a little too low. Also, when you say "To create something of equal value . . .", there is supposed to be a pause between create and something, like "To create, something of equal value must be lost". Other than that, good job.
Rose: I liked these a lot better. Your first one two were really good, but I think, in the third one, you had to take more time between the sentences. Like "What [space] theres no magic? [space] than why don't you bring someone back to life".

Masaka_Naraku -
I think your Rose lines were great! They had the right tone, had good emotion, and were just overall very good.
The first set of Lust auditions were alright but the redos were much, much better. In the first set you sounded a little rushed and unsure of yourself but in the redos you sounded more confident and sultry which is really good for Lust.
Good job with both auditions!
Chinomi
07-26-2006, 03:31 PM
Masaka_Naraku-
Honestly, I didn't like these too much. The microphone quality is going to be the death to you D: I would reccomend investing in a better microphone if you want to continue AVAing. No matter how good one is: bad microphone = far less roles.
Rose sounds about right but the acting is flat and you need to work on the clarity in your lines. I have to stress about this because it kills the production when the viewer has to WORK to understand what your saying. I know this is probably due to your origin (location) but many foreign AVA's have overcome this problem. As for your Lust, I'd have to say the same thing except that your Lust sounds FAR too young, even in the redos.
Moose
07-26-2006, 03:38 PM
Basically, I agree with Chinomi. Couldn't of said it better myself. OK, here's mine. It's JACK SPARROW! I definitely need help with this, because I forgot what he sounds like.
Jack Sparrow (http://media.putfile.com/Jack-Sparrow-Audition)
Chinomi
07-26-2006, 03:43 PM
Moose-
Pretty good mic quality so I have no pet-peeves there. I think you said the line too quickly. One thing about Jack Sparrow is that he tends to take his time and drag out every second word or so. The accent is there, but I think you just sound too young for Capt. Sparrow. With a voice-type such as yours I would try to impersonate someone with a younger feel in his voice such as Commodore Norrington. I have no tips on how to better a Sparrow impression, since:
1) I can NEVER do impressions.
2) I'm... a girl? xD
One person on the VAA who is AMAZING at a Capt.Jack Sparrow impression is Axel. I don't know if it's right for me to say this, but if you need some tips perhaps Axel could help you? I dunno. I don't want to cause trouble for him but he just does such a good impression I couldn't help but mention him x_x;;

07-26-2006, 06:33 PM
I think your voice is too high for Ganondorf, but your range is perfect for Link. However, like HoT said, you needed more emotion. You have to bring the character to life. It sounded like you were just talking in those, you need to step into your characters shoes and speak with the emotion they would speak with.
And to Chinomi: You underestimate my range. Thanks for the critique. I'm not a huge fan of PoC, so I had to go off of memory and one 3 second clip I saw on youtube. As for Commidor Norrington. I have no idea what he sounds like, so I'll have to rent PoC again ^^.
And to FMA: You should just do download and open file instead of saving it to your comp. It saves a ton of room.

You underestimate my range.
I didn't say anything about your range. If you'd like a critique on your range I'd be happy to give one. I only critiqued that ONE sound file you posted. It was pretty much the first time I've heard you so I, of course, do not have authority to constructively critisize your range in anyway.
I had to go off of memory and one 3 second clip I saw on youtube. As for Commidor Norrington. I have no idea what he sounds like, so I'll have to rent PoC again ^^.
You definitely should rent it again and try out a Norrington voice as well as research Captain Jack Sparrow's character somemore and redo several clip files so I can re-critique. I'm sure there are fan-based sites with sound files from the movie as well.
Chinomi
07-28-2006, 05:41 AM
Hey guys sorry for double posting but I would appreciate a critique on something. If there is one thing I have to work on concerning my acting ability it is my laughing and crying. MAINLY crying so I would like a critique on the following. It is far too late for a loud cry, but below is an example of a quieter cry. Feel free to be harsh. Honest critiques are my thing.
http://media.putfile.com/Crying--Sample
Scarlotte
07-28-2006, 07:14 PM
Okie dokie! Okay so overall you're crying is pretty good, I mean it's a hard emotion to imitate without actually crying, although actually crying would be the best but I mean who can do that on command. >.< Anyways I think you did a good job I suggest maybe trying to cry in exhails or however you spell it, the coughing is good if you're going for loud and dramatic crying but for quiet crying try to sound maybe a bit like you're shivering, as in very unstable breathing with letting out the little cry or whatever only once in a while. The snorting was pretty good as well, it's definately a hard to do on command as well. Also there were long pauses I didn't know if the file just repeated itself or not so if it did well just ignore the next comment, if not then I suggest a lot shortner pauses, also with the unstable breathing try to have a little hum in just one note, it usually does the trick. ^-^ Well now I hope this helps, I'm definately no pro at crying either but here are some things I look for when I listen to my lines. ^.~

For your first line, your voice was pretty good, but when you said release, you were really struggling, you need to put in a lot of energy to get those yells right, and you sounded a bit flat for the emotion. Line two well your emotion was pretty good, altohugh you yelled maybe you should try sounding a bit more irritated as well, line three your emotion was good but your mic quality needs some help, in all the lines as well, and the forth line was acutally the best, maybe a bit more dramatic but is was one of my favorites, hope this helps. ^-^

Well, the voice is good, but I couldn't understand what you were saying in the first 3. At all. It sucks that you have that expander. Well, your voice and acting was good, but since this is a radioplay, people have to understand what you're saying completely. So I suggest talking a little slower, so it may reduce the problem a little bit.
Icypopcorn
07-29-2006, 04:13 PM
Naraku, I'mma be writing you out a critique =D
Line one- Your voice was very cute, but your acting, to put it simply, sucked. You need to be almost-screaming this line, screaming when you say 'Release!' You can tell you're trying to keep quiet. It makes it sound very fake. X: Either record when no one's around, or if it's your mic, I can help you with that.
Line two- You were like, totally struggling with that scream. When screaming in voice acting, it's very very difficult to fake it. You've gotta atleast raise your voice a tad. o: You don't sound amazed or shocked or OMGWTFBBQ at all. You sound more like you want to say something but you can't. Imagine the most incredible, strangest thing in the world, and just get that emotion and freak out in that line. Imagine Dylan making a Mermaid Melody dub. That's just as shocking as what Sakura's saying here (LOL 8D) But either way, in your acting, you need to become that character. It's hard to do, but if you can't get the emotion, just pull up every memory you have of that particular emotion, ya know what I'm saying?
Line three-Your acting was a lot better here. Only problem is your mic quality. Try putting the mic to the side of your mouth, and your input (Line in) volume down. :D
Line Four-... You got the emotion right and stuff, but it's just... the voice I guess? Dunno. I think it sounds wierd, like unrealistic. It sounds more like what a small child would say to thier older sibling or something, not a girl confessing love. O_O; Think about how YOU, if you were/are a girl like Sakura, would say that in a situation like this.

Maryweather, well, I think you missed the first line ^^; Baa Baa is the second out of three >.< Anyways your sining could be a bit slower because I don't think the Child was rushing to get the song overwith, as for the third line or second ^^; It was good your pretty good at explaining things just mabe try to sound a bit sadder when your ending the paragraph.
Alice, well I really liked your first line, you seemed to have lost energy when you said "th white rabbit" so all I can suggest is putting more energy through out the entire line, line two and three are good I like your emotion ^-^ umm that's all I can say hope this helps out ^^;

Well your Nono was cute, for emotion I liked your buster beam, it was cute and same with your other two, I wanted to hear the AH! one but you can critique that then ^-^ Anyways good luck these were good auditions. I can't really say much because I'm not the producer ^^;
Lark, well your might sound a bit too husky, and I heard a puff which will probably effect because this producer is really looking for good quality, nice scream though, your have a very good mic, and I think this line was good, your voice sounds good not too husky but certainly not cute, also, there was another puff so watch out for those things ^.~
As for your evil laughter, well other than the puffs (although wasn't an audition so not like it matters) it was pretty good, maybe a bit less time being quiet, you really got into it at the end so that's good, I'm definately no pro when it comes to evil laughter, espcially evil laughter but overall it was good, now all I can suggest is trying to do it in different voice and ranges, because you started out low but then got a lot higher like evil brat type laugh, but good job! ^-^

Sora, well for your first line you should really sound more dramatic as in actually yell, especially when you say "you're wrong!" you really need to put in more emotion. Line two well other than the puffs it was alright. Line three well you did a pretty good job on this one, maybe a bit louder again, and for line for, you sounded pretty good again, maybe sound a tiny bit more cheerful though.
Riku, well your firt and second lines are good better than your Sora ones but you forgot to say "light" in you second line. ^^; As for line three be a bit more dramatic, you really need to read how the producers want to emotion and when they say shout you have to shout, not a fake shout but really shout into your mic, so for this line although he said almost shouting your going to need to put in a lot more emotion where you are at the verge yelling. Line four well pretty good, watch your puffs though, and in the emotion it says that he's serious until the laugh at the end, so I suggest doing the laugh at the end since your basically making fun of some one.
Goofy, I love it, I think you can do a really good impression of Goofy but also you really got to watch those puffs, do you use a headset? because if not then they can be easily avoided, anyways these were one of your better auditions.
Donald, well your emotion was pretty good although your yell was more like listening to you clean your throat practically, so I suggest trying to go a bit higher and work on doing that voice with actually saying "Ai!!"

Cloud: You've got that voice down. You just need to work on the emotion a little, even though Cloud doesn't use tons of emotion. You also said it way too fast. You need to slow down and enunciate.
RedXII: The accent was good, but your voice needed to be a tad bit lower.
Reno: Not too familiar with this character, but I think he should be a bit more cocky, but you got the voice pretty close. My biggest problem was that your lines were really spaced out.
Vincent: Hmm, very good. Just a little bit gruffer and it would be amazing. Damn, you did the whole monolouge 0.o. The other thing is that sometimes, you sounded like you had a cold a tad bit.
OK, and now for mine.

ok, yeah...thanxz for the critiques moose...so, need more emotion for cloud and a bit lower for Red...
i spaced out the lines cuz there was talking inbetween those sorry, maybe i should'nt have done that...
and a bit more gruff for Vincent....thanxz and YESS i DID do the Whole Monologue....i guess i thought Why Not....it gives more time for the listener to hear my Vincent voice and to give a good review on it....and sorry, if it did sound like i had a cold....it was probably cuz i was trying to see if i got deep enough....cuz to me i'm still not there
ok, NOW for my comments on your auds
Falco: ok, i dont really know much about him....is this the one from StarFox? if it is then i dont think that voice tone fit the character.....if not then i dunno (your emotion was pretty good, )
Cid: i thought you had a pretty good voice for him....the tone was pretty good. but i thought Cid had an accent....if he does then i think you need a little more of that accent on yours
Shadow's FF7 Vincent auds: i think you have sorta the right voice (as in the deep low-ness) but it kinda sounded like you had a slight accent for some reason (that might be just me)
Starwind's FF7 AC Vincent auds: ok, this one was pretty good except i thought that it sounded like you were straining when you were doing the gruff tone to Vincent's voice and that you just needed to be somewhat deeper or lower on your voice and it would be good
oh, shoot i knew i forgot an aud.....
RedXIII: ok, THIS one was good...i liked this one...i think you should've had more smoothness with your Red voice (maybe a tad bit lower as well) and it sorta sounded like it got cut short after you said "ma" (in Stigma)
i hope these somewhat help you...idno if i'm good at critiqing

My first attempt at Sakura!
All in all, I think my auds could use a little more emotion. I'm worried more about the voice though; I've haven't seen much of the series in either language.
Sakura 01- "Are you listening, Naruto?! It's very detailed but I'm going to simplify it for you! (Calm and a bit annoyed)"

Lionfayt: Thanks for the critique, it really helped ^^
Cristina: OK, I've usually only listened to the english version, but your voice sounds right for a character like Sakura, the emotion just needed a little bit of work. (Note, serious major nitpicking ahead).
Line 1: In both, I think you should of spaced "it's very detailed, but I'm gonna simplify it for you". Your spacing in the second take was a bit better, but the first one you sound a little rushed. The emotion for the first one was a little iffy, and not very believable in my eyes, but the second take had the right emotion for the line. So yea, good job. I also liked the way you pronounced "Naruto", the way it's supposed to be pronounced (I think).
Line 2: I couldn't tell the difference between the two takes. Either way, the emotion was great. It could have sounded a little bit more frustrated at the end, but other than that, it was really good.
Line 3: This was my favorite. It's almost perfect. The only thing I could suggest is to say hey with a little more emphasis on the "Ay" sound. Don't know how exactly that would help, but I think it would help convey the emotion.
Well, I did my part, so now it's time for someone to critique me!
Since I like the way Cristina put her audition lines and emotions and everything, I'm gonna copy her! ^^
This is my first official try at Kakashi from Naruto, so tell me what ya think.
"That was a perfect explanation. It seems Iruka Sensei really does have good students" (Happy)
Line 1 (http://media.putfile.com/Moose-Kakashi01)
"Enough with the boasting...hurry up. Climb any tree you want." (Calm and just a bit annoyed)
Line 2 (http://media.putfile.com/Moose-Kakashi02)
"So, it looks like the one with the best control of the Chakra is Sakura, the young lady of the group..." (Calm)
Line 3 (http://media.putfile.com/Moose-Kakashi03)
Also, may I be so bold as to ask this be moved to Voice Acting Chat (or whatever it's called). This thread's far too helpful to risk being deleted in the fun section if it gets forgotten or something. From what I've seen, threads in the fun section get deleted or something like that if they get past 3 pages, so yea. Hope that made sense, it's 1 AM and I'm a tad bit tired.

Well for your first line I suggest maybe sounding a bit more surprised in the begining and then jokingly say "it seems whoever-sensei really does have good student" and itallicized because it's good to put a bit more energy into those words. Line 2 well I can't really say much but maybe sound a bit more pissed off/tired of it when you say "enough of the boasting" then the rest of the line was good. Line 3 Nothing for me to say because well, well it's hard not to be calm in any other way. ^^; Anyways your voice was good I think it does really nicely with the character so good luck! ^-^

Wow, it's really interesting to hear someone else's take on a role that I tried out for as well (Sakura)... I recorded my lines without any reference, so they came out totally different in terms of delivery. O_o The biiiigest difference though (unfortunately) comes down to mic quality. Your lines come sans puffs and clicks, and it sounds great. Very pro (as expected). (Er.. I'm pretty sure that you've answered this elsewhere, in all likelihood, but I'm going to risk it anyway: what mic do you use?)
Eeennyway... I really like the emotion you put into your words, but for the first line, it's almost as if each word has too much emotion, taking away from the overall effect of the line. Maybe try putting less stress on the last part, especially on "simplify". Second line sounds pretty much on-the-mark, and I especially enjoy the shrieking in the third line.
Moose
Enunciation is good, pretty clear. Your lines sound a bit nasal, though, almost as if you're holding your breath in at the nose. (I'm not really sure how to fix that, but I have the same problem when I record my lines...) Voice is a bit... smooth-sounding? young-sounding? ...normal-sounding? for Kakashi. I'd imagine Kakashi's voice to have more of a bored gruffness to it.

Yugi, I like your emotion, your definatly able to understand it. All I can say is when you say relax you sound really sound like your relaxing while you say it. For your second line it sounded pretty good but in your third line you maybe to make it sound like your in the middle of being chased, I beleive that's what's going on so really try to re-enact it. ^-^ I wish I knew how to spell.
Ike, Well for your first line you say want to make it sound like your explaining the rules, just put in a bit more enthusiasm, for line two you emotion was pretty good but I suggest perhaps talking a little slower, also through out all the clips you sound a bit like your mumbleing, I beleive this character is lighter and more enthusiastic when he talks so just lighten up. ^-^
Tanaka, well I like these auditions the best out of the three, I really think you did a good job online one and two, line three you sound very serious but it is a serious line, so I know where your coming from so I have nothing too big to bug you on for these lines! ^-^ Good luck!

Thank you very much I was listening to my auds and thought that they probably should be lower but I needed some advice on emotion. ^-^
Cristina
Well your first two lines were very good, your mic seemed to buzz a bit but I had the same problem when I did mine so I know how hard it is. ^^; Line three I thought ended on a bit of a more cheerful tone, like she was just kidding around. As for line four, I liked the emotion I suggest sounding maybe a little angry in the begining of the line or something but it's all personal takes on the lines. Line five sounded really good so I can't say much on it. Overall your voices aounded very alike, but I know it's hard, all I can suggest is trying to make Mion sound more tomboyish or keep her the same because she did sound quite good, and/or make Shion sound more sweet, although she sounds not so sweet in clips it's best to definately put in a bit of a personal twist to help get the part. ^-^ Hope this helped.

Cristina - I agree with Scarlotte that they did sound very alike. However, your Shion lines...I loved the emotion. Your second line was DEFINITELY my favorite one. You really sounded like you were crying! I can tell you really gave it your all for both characters. <3

I really like your line one, you certainly sound a lot like the japenese VA. As for line two, I think you could do to be a bit more serious and calm, it sounds as though you tried very hard to sound like the japanese VA, (correct me if I'm wrong), so I think for this line you need to really relax and say it more smoothly and more seriously. On line three you may just want to up the cheerfulness a bit and say it more jokingly as well. Line four sounded very good, I suggest maybe working for more crying just to make it more intnse but other than that it sounded quite good. Line five sounded really great, although the first laughing sounded in your throat and sounds a bit strange but it does kinda work. Both your voices sounded a lot alike, and you sound a lot like Cristina too. ^^; All I can suggest is trying to make Shions voice more cheerful and sweet, so you really need to try to work these concepts in since they're twins. ^-^

Amano~ Wow you only sound just like the japanese actress. Honestly you sound absolutely adorable, this is my favourite audition from you and I can't really pick on it, your emotion and voice was well characterized and good luck. ^-^
Kuan~ Okay, cute voice again, I think it also fits Kuan well. As for emotion, line one should sound as if your in a panic judgeing by the sample. Line two sounded good, you sounded like you had the right emotion. As for line three Kuan is very scared and nervous, you sounded a bit too calm (plus there was a puff). Line four you should sound more paniced and kind of frantic. I think the voice was very fitting for Kuan though.
Kuriya~ Line one had just the right emotion. ^-^ Line two sounded very good, there was a puff and the jitsu you covered. Line three probably could've done with some more confidence, especially when you say "all". Line four could have been said with a bit more of a serious tone but it was quite good(puff though). As for overall voice I think you could've sounded a bit more confident, Kuriya is crazy and serious and I think if you put in a bit more confidence your voice will be awsome.
Mahiru~ Line one was said very well, all I can suggest is to make "hobby is" sound more clear because when I listened it sounded like "hobbies" (just to nit pick though). Line two sounded very good I have nothin to say about it. Line three sounded very good as well, maybe a bit more serious for the first half of the line though. Line four was said well too, no complaints. Your voice overall sounded great for Mahiru, definately your first line, then maybe sound a bit more energtic for you other lines.
Mina Nami~ Your first line could have used a bit more energy, and excitement. Your second line again could have used more energy also maybe sound more confident, almost competitave.Line three sounded very good, nothing for me to pick out. Line four sounded very nice as well. Overall you voice was very cute for the girl/girls just a bit more energy and confidence again.
Shouko~ Very cute first line your emotion was right on. Line two you should sound more rushed and frantic. Line three sounded right on, nothing to pick at. Line four should be more rushed and frantic as well, I beleive the line would be said at a very serious time maybe while fighting the monsters or somthing. Overall you voice is very cute again, maybe try to go a bit higher and a bit more energetic.
Tamon~ Line one was said very well, nothing to pick at. Line two was said very well too. Line three very good as well, slight puff. Also line four was said very well, this is definately my second favourite of your auditions. Anyways overall your auditions were good I suggest maybe trying to make your voices have a bit more variety but that's just me. ^-^ Good luck!

Zombie Moan~ Okay well I'm definately no professional but I suggest doing a bit more moaning, not like seperate moans but just make it last a bit longer and sound like your in a bit more pain.
Sogran~ Sounded pretty good but that was only the second line, do you have the other? Anyways I think you voice suits Sogran quite well. Good luck! ^-^
Soldier Crying~ Very good for a newbie. Nah, I think your crying was very good and believeable, I did notice at the begining you sounded like you were going to laugh but overall you are very good at crying.
Commercial~ Well you sounded very good, you have a very deep voice so you can do evil very well. My only thing to say is to make sure you say everything clearly I heard "our God has puts us through" and I don't know if that's right of wrong but that's what I heard. ^^; Anways hope this was helpful.

"Our goddess puts us through." I wasn't quite satisfied with this either, but it was a quick recording, as I did a live audition for the actual project. It "hit the spot", so I guess that's good...

"Our goddess puts us through." Ah, okay that's good, I didn't know what the actual line was so that's the best I could do. ^^;
Sogran~ Okay I still link your voice is very fitting for him. I suggest sounding a pit more Pissed off, perhaps stressing "damn gundam pilots" more or just stressing "pilots" more. But your second half sounded very good. ^-^

I'll post some reviews later on tomorrow. :D
Go ahead and post your singing clip~ Although, you might get more feedback in the Recording Studio if it's a complete song :O

Well, it sort of is. It's acoustic... *shrugs*
Okay. Now I'm going to post my first few lines! Do I sound better as Ami-chan (Sailor Mercury) or as Usagi-chan (Sailor Moon)?
Ami Line

Usagi Line 2

Usagi "Koi No Senshi"

And yes, I'm mostly using my real voice. Why? Because I listened to myself as Ami and all I could think was "Gosh, I sound like Usagi" heh. That or Tohru Honda from Fruits Basket.

Usagi~ Line one, I suggest trying to be more hyper. Usagi as you probably know is insanely eneretic so I suggest you put more fun and excitement into that line (plus I think "day" was cut off). Line two you definately have potantial,you certainly sounded whiny now I suggesttrying not to have those puffs. (they can be taken care of through some programs such as Audacity or Goldwave) Anyways as for you singing, it's very nice but I suggest putting a bit more power into it, also your overall voice can go a bit higher for Usagi but other than that you did a great job and I really like your singing.
Ami~ Yep I preferred this audition out of the two. ^-^ I think the softness in your voice definately works for Mercury,perhaps try a tiny bit higher but not much, if any. Other than that try to remove those puffs and you'll be awsome. ^-^ Good luck!

I've been trying and trying to get rid of them. It's very frustrating, ya know? It's difficult to figure out what exactly to do to get rid of them. x_x
Thanks for the advice, I'll really take it into consideration and see what happens ^_^
Oh, and thanks for the compliment. ^_^ I appreciate it. Especially when I'm feeling craaaaazy nervous about the whole thing, heh.

Negi~ I'm not to good at boy voices either and Sachi's thread on the PM is down so I'll try my bes. Okay well your had a really great british accent, it kinda took away from the girl voice in you so that was good vocal wise. Okay so I'm a bit iffy on when lines end but for your first line it had some pretty good emotion, you kind of mumbled a bit when it came to talking about the trains and vending machines, I had a pretty hard time figuring out what you were saying. ^^; Line two had some very good emotion as well, line three had some good emotion as well. I really liked line four because I could tell right away that you were teaching a class, but it seemed whenever you raised your voice a bit it would go to a medium high girl voice. And then the same deal for your last line. So overall your emotion was great, as for voice, you had a very strong english accent, you might want to sound a bit younger and even a tad higher but watch out when you raise your voice. ^-^ I hope that was alright, wow I right a lot.

PokeDex~ Well your emotion was right on for a pokedex. Also the voice you used was really great maybe a tad too nassely trying to get his sound but really geat none the less. ^-^ Good job.

Well, I tried to do what Eric Stuart did for the PokeDex. To be honest, out of the entire cast, I think I can only pull of the PokeDex, Squirtle, and a few minor characters or pokemon. But thanks. ^_^

I agree with you that your girly voice can still be heard. I personally do not have any experience in doing boy voices ( even as a man :P ) but maybe you should make it sound a bit rougher? I really don't know, haha. Other than that I love the accent and you had a good emotion. Hopefully someone else can be more of a help than me :)
SulliMike23
I think your voice was very good, but sadly the quality brings it down. There is a pretty annoying static and I can also hear movement right after the words "transform pokemon". Try to avoid those! One other little thing ... your last line sounded a bit too robotic for me. Mainly because you said your "is" word in a way that doesn't flow with the rest of the line. I know the pokedex actually is a computer, but still :P
Ah, what the heck ... my own audition lines
Auditioning for: Aoi House Radioplay (http://voiceactingalliance.com/board/pm/displayaudition.php?id=348)
Name: Alex Roberts
Description: Alex is the level headed and "normal" character in the Radioplay. He is the best friend of Alex. He is kicked out of his dorm along with Sandy when the Dean of the school accuses them of having alcoholic beverages and pornography in their dorms.
Voice Type: Medium-Low
Line 1 Mr. Perkins has called Alex and Sandy into his office. He knows this isn't good. Mr. Perkins, I-I can explain.
Line 2 Sarcastically. Sandy just asked. "Oh my god Alex, what am I going to say to my mom?!" How about, "Hey Mom. Guess what? Alex and I just got kicked out of our dorms because I couldn't keep my stupid hamster from humping the Dean's toupee. Mind if I live in your basement for the rest of my life?"
Line 3 Right after Nina hits Sandy on the read with a frying pan. GOOD GOD! Was that really necessary?!!

Thanks for the links and stuff, or else I'd have to go searching.
PhaeThorn
Alex~ Alrighty, well then lets jump right in. In line one I think at the end of the line you could've sounded a bit more guilty and kind of you know, if you just gave up a fight, like a sighing type mood. Line two I loved, you had a very casual sound to it, and it was quite friendly. Line three sounded really good as well, great mic quality too. ^-^ Now onto the voice, I think maybe you can make it sound a bit younger, you could go a bit higher as well for a strategy of sounding younger considering you have a very deep voice. I hope this is helpful. ^-^

Thanks Scarlotte!
I could try to work on my younger voice. I guess I should prevent my voice from going into the "bassy" bit of my range too :)
I'll redo them soon and I'll try to be more guilty too in line 1 :D

A bit from Lunamaria~
Yuki - Princess Nine
Link: http://media.putfile.com/Yuki-Princess-Nine
Crit: I actually like how I did this line and I think I do an all right Yuki.
Info: Yuki has a lot of mental issues. She rarely talks to anyone but her doll that she says is from another planet, named Fifi. She tried to kill herself in junior high after being bullied by fellow teamates for being an ace softball player, ergo trauma. Fifi is her best friend, and this clip is recorded at the point where Yuki loses Fifi.
IZUMI - Princess Nine
Link: http://media.putfile.com/Izumi
Crit: Ah, not much. I'm not too fond of this one either.
Info: She joined the all-girls baseball team after a long battle with her 'rival' Ryo Hayakawa, leaving Tennis having been famous for her awesome tennis skills. She has a bit of a front and doesn't often show her emotions but cares a lot for her team in the long run, although she is tough on them sometimes. In a love triangle with Hiroki & Ryo. She is questioning and talking to Hiroki during this clip.

Izumi~ Well I'm not too familiar with this character so please forgive me if I'm way off base. What couaght my attension in the first line was your quality, try to have no puff or static, I beleive these were for a demo? Anyways keep in mind that some producers will actually not cast you because you have poor mic quality. As for the actual line, if did have very good emotion, and it was pretty clear, try to hit the "d" in "need", although she's really stuggling annunciation is the key. But not my spelling of the word. Line two, well I couldn't figure out what you first word was, and the line was kind of hard to understand but you know what to do. ^-^ Vocally wise I think you did a very good mature voice and it was soft too, I hope that's what you aimed for.

Rika~ Your voice was pretty good, I think a bit higher would help. As for the emotion in line one, I think you could kept a bit more anger or energy when you were saying "you shouldn't be bullying her like this". Line two could've sounded maybe a bit perkier, she's a really cute charater and you need to let your cuteness show through. Line three could've sounded maybe a bit more mysterious. ^-^ Although, I think your improving a lot.

Momoko~ I really liked the voice you used for her, so I don't belive I can say much on that. Line one sounded very good too, I think when you say "she's a real martial artist!" you could put a bit more energy into it, either more scared or whatever you think is going through her head. Line two sounded very good too, but you started off kind of weak, I suggest trying to start off stonger but you did have very good energy at the end of that line though. Line three well, this is a very sentimental moment so maybe try to sound softer, also there was a noticable puff which you may want to make sure isn't there. Overall I was very impressed with your voice and acting, I hope to hear more from you!
Shintarou Inuzuka
Brock~ You sounded, "very good!" in your first line I have nothing else to say. Maybe for the begining of the second line you could sound more laid back, but overall great. Line three, well you sound like your angry about this, it said happy yelling. I suggest saying the all capitalized words with a yelling in excitement, if that helps. Line four, well you sound very excited but I think you can sound more giddy. ^-^ Just try to sound like a total fool, because that's how Brock basically act when he's around girls. Over all vocal wise I thought maybe you could've sounded a bit more mature, I realize Keruri is up for interpretations but Brock does have a bit more maturity in his personality too.
James~ Line one could've sounded a bit more devious at the start but you had the end right. Line two, again he's happy so think that they have their trap all set up so he's really excited and then que's whoever to dance like an eggplant in his excited. Line three was very good, I think that you might have been straining your voice a bit though, but that makes sense. Line four sounded very good, I can't really think of something to say. Over all I think your range is pretty good but try to sound more like royalty, or at least a bit more stuck up and you'll be good.
Meowth~ Over all I beleive the lines were good but you could've sounded a bit more perkier or higher. Your emotion was kind of monotone, or it sounded like it a bit but it was a regular line so that makes sense. ^^; But good job!
Narrator~ You sounded very good, I can't really think of much to say.
Dexter~ You sounded very good, quite naselly but I have a feeling that's the "fuzzy" you had to aim for. I think you did a very good job displaying it's emotion so I have no comment. ^-^
