IMPORTANT!

If you have any questions about this project, I will answer them in this topic:
Introduction and Q&A Topic (http://voiceactingalliance.com/board/showthread.php?t=17535)

Project information-
Family. War. Orders. Boredom. Oddity. Stagnancy. Overbearing Work. Falsities. Discouragers. Life. Fate.

We all want to be Far From our struggles. Perhaps we're selfish, and want to give up our hates for our wants. We don't care. We just want to be far from the life we have, and to have something different. But, if we all do that, where would we go? And, what would we gain?

After all, all we would be is Far From It. And in all truety, that may not be our best choice.

Thank you.

As of right now, I don't have the lines for the weapons, because I'm still in the process of translating them from English to their own respective language. They all speak English, though.


Nikusuya, the sword, speaks Japanese. (Pupu doesn't speak)

Eirine, the gun, speaks Italian. (Senton doesn't speak)

Paulus, the mace, speaks French.

Molton, the boomerang, speaks Russian.

Samsi, the staff, speaks Spanish.

Ralrick, the bow, speaks Greek.

Curam, the axe, speaks Latin.

Hadian, the spear, speaks Portugese.

Luminala and Luminata, the two halves of the shield, speak German.

Nightclaw, the glove, speaks English. (easy, lol)

Sachibelle
10-06-2006, 05:00 PM
Ooo, I'll try out for Nikusuya...Unless you want a boy voice for it. :o

I'll also be trying out for most of the girl parts on here. <3

thenightsshadow
10-06-2006, 05:03 PM
I'm not too particular of the gender of the voice, it just has to sound like it's electronic and yet human at the same time. If the best one's a female, I'll live with it.

Sachibelle
10-06-2006, 05:05 PM
Okey dokey then~~

Waaa, this production really does look super interesting~! I'll try auditioning tonight if I have time! If not, expect some from me on Sunday~

Added some information regarding episode lines and subject lines for e-mail, as well as touching and cleaning up the initial post.

Edit:
If anyone could help me with the translating, that would be much appreciated. The only other alternative is to learn the language myself, and that would take a long time. I'm only 18 for crying out loud.

If anyone could translate them, it would be much appreciated.

Erm, I would advise against posting those "audition scores" in public. ^^; It's a bit like openly posting critiques, which is generally frowned upon in the audition forums. Plus, some people might not be too happy with it, you know? ^^;

That said, looks like an interesting project. I'll see if I can get an audition in sometime.

Yo, looks pretty cool. I just recently got my microphone, so, uh, I'll try auditioning for it. I just hope I don't suck that bad, y'know? :/

thenightsshadow
10-30-2006, 05:25 PM
There's one thing I'll say to that. I don't tell anyone they suck.

Each person that auditions will always have something good about their voice. And I will complement you on it.

I try to be tactful in my critiques, so don't worry about me saying that you suck. Because I won't.

Soon. Very soon. I think someone sent in their representation of you, Kiria. Wanna come see?

Some characters, mind you, sound similar, but each person has their own personality, way of speaking, and...well...
They're fun.

Try treating them as if you could interact with them.
