[Sukisho]

Oo this was really good and nicely mixed, though there were lots of clicks when different people would talk.

[sparf]

MWAHA! I LOVE IT

[RogueA007]

Wahoo, awesome! Acting was awesome, just like the animated TV show and stuff. Mixing was wicked too, although like StarFlare said, there were some clicks between people talking.

[Zero]

Commander William "Bill" Pettit - Dylan - Good job man, I rarely get to hear you.

Commissioner James "Jim" Gordon - Ridgewolf - I dont think anyone else could have done a better Gordon, Good job man.

Sergeant Hugh Foley - U-1 - Nice as always bro, for a small part. Good job bro! Oh yeah we're having chicken again tonight...blah...I'd rather have pizza. Mom's going chicken crazy.

Dt. Harvey Bullock - Ry-Guy - When you want it done right just go to this man.

Huntress - Amby Leigh - Good job Amby Leigh, your one tough woman...please dont kill me...

Batman - Ydoc Nameloc - Good job man, Gothem City is your town.

Joker - Sparf - Sparf ? Did you hire Mark Hammel? lol, nice! That's a great Joker man! You would make Mark proud!

Two-Face - Evil Guru Dood - There's nothing like a the smooth taste of tabacco...ohhh yeeah. Great job man, you got the gruff and you brought the undecisive attitude and that's a good thing when your playing that kind of character.

Dr. Harleen Quinzel - Katie - You get a voice, then you mix it with good acting. Bake for 20 minutes...and then you get Harleen Quinzel. That's Katie's voice acting secret....Now everyone send me $20 dollars. Hey that secret wasnt cheap, now pay up.

Batgirl Great job with the mixing and the music! Maybe we will get to hear the Batman music Prince made for the end credits LoL....NO WAIT! I WAS JUST JOKING!

[Batgirl]

StarFlare & Rouge - I'm guessing the "Clicking" would refer to the lines between TwoFace and Joker. Thats the only one I hear. But the reason I mention is that perhaps the "Clicking" was the Snipping of the Scissors the Joker was using? I was a little worried that the sound effect wasn't distinct enough. Any further info on that would be nice. ^^"

Zero - Hey, Prince didn't do such a bad job. After all, Kevin Smith Likes him so he can't be ALL bad. >>

But yeah uh no. LoL

[RogueA007]

Rouge?

O___o;;;;

But no, it wasn't the scissors Joker was using, the "clicks" that I heard were clickish pop things at the beginning/end of Two-Face's lines from his microphone. Easy to edit out.

[Batgirl]

Rouge?

O___o;;;;

But no, it wasn't the scissors Joker was using, the "clicks" that I heard were clickish pop things at the beginning/end of Two-Face's lines from his microphone. Easy to edit out.

Oops! Sorry about that >>

R-o-g-u-e I can spell!

And it actually wasn't a result of his microphone, well sorta, the lines weren't recorded in separate files, so it wasn't because his recording started, it was because he (and Foley earlier in the RP) needed to have their volume turned up a bit to be on par with the other characters, so the "click" is the sound that results from the volume being turned up as the clip starts...kinda. Hard for me to explain since I'm used to just working with Sound Recorder.

[Matt Alan]

I'd like to say this, it felt like I was listening to a professional rendition of Batman. The cast was superb, the acting was great, the mixing was wonderful.

My favorite character here though, was the Joker. Sparf, you are the MAN.

^-^ I can't wait to hear the rest of this.

[Sukisho]

StarFlare & Rouge - I'm guessing the "Clicking" would refer to the lines between TwoFace and Joker. Thats the only one I hear. But the reason I mention is that perhaps the "Clicking" was the Snipping of the Scissors the Joker was using? I was a little worried that the sound effect wasn't distinct enough. Any further info on that would be nice. ^^"


no not that, it sounded more like the lines weren't filtered enough, like you could hear where the mic clicks, like you know when you stop recording.

[Batgirl]

Yeah I understand that. ^_^

[Sukisho]

Yeah I understand that. ^_^

*looks back up thread* opps you already got that, lol

[YdocNameloc]

Yay! A perfect way to end an awful day at work. yay!

Everything was great and everyone was well suited to their parts.

[Nanuri]

I liked everyone ^_^ Ydoc made an excellent Batman, and Sparf (as I'm sure he's well aware) *IS* Joker.

Amby, you were sweeeeeeeet as Huntress, and everyone else was awesome too. I'm just too lazy to comment on each individual.

Great mixing, however I think you kept the SFX to a minimum and it served to make me have to work harder to understand what was happening XD

[Amby Leigh]

Pretty good Laura! I heart it! Hope the rest of it is just as good. My lines four Episode 2 will be in to ya by Wednesday night.

Everyone's acting is great! But I have got to say... Sparf ROCKS! O ...M...F...G...! You ARE the Joker! I LOVE YOU MAN! If I didn't know any better I would think that was the same actor from the cartoon series!

[StNick79]

hell yeah, dloading right now...comments later

can't wait....and i cant wait to get a script heh heh heh

[Yami no Kitsune]

Woah... this is GREAT! The mixing was brilliant, and I loved the monologue, Laura. Sparf... you were a little TOO good at the joker, freakily so. It was like you borrowed Mark Hamill's voice!

Great job everyone... can't wait for the next episode. ^_^

[Batgirl]

I liked everyone ^_^ Ydoc made an excellent Batman, and Sparf (as I'm sure he's well aware) *IS* Joker.

Amby, you were sweeeeeeeet as Huntress, and everyone else was awesome too. I'm just too lazy to comment on each individual.

Great mixing, however I think you kept the SFX to a minimum and it served to make me have to work harder to understand what was happening XD

Hmm Interesting. I didn't think of that. One of the challenges was that, Scene 1, they are standing on top of a building, and Scene 2, and Scene 4. There isn't a lot of movement there so...ya.

The Joker Scene was a challenge because they did so much WALKING. LoL However, I'll try to keep that in mind for future episodes. ^^"

[Liana]

Wow *.* I'm amazed. This is . . . great. The mixing was great- no one was louder than anyone else, the music never overpowered anything and added to the mood.

The acting was GREAT. I can't think of ANYTHING bad to say (other than the clicks in Two-Face's lines- not the scissor clicks, I understood that. There were also one or two points where I couldn't quite understand what he was saying, but that's probably my own fault). I'd sit here and comment to eveyone individually, but it'd just be a boring string of "YOU. ROCK. A LOT." so I'll just say it once and let it be overwith :D

[Katie]

I have time, so I'll review everyone individually.

Commander William "Bill" Pettit/Dylan - Awesome voice. So tough. And manly. XD I don't know who Bill is, buuut I still think you did an awesome job.

Commissioner James "Jim" Gordon/Ridgewolf - Dude. You make a GREAT Gordon... Tough, but kind-sounding. The characterization was great.

Sergeant Hugh Foley/U-1 - OMG... WOAH. You sound SO much like a professional VA who I cannot recall at the present moment... I wanna say Vash's English voice, but it may be someone else... I just know that I really like the voice. :)

Dt. Harvey Bullock/Ry-Guy - Woah... you make a great Bullock... you totally have the accent down... is it natural?

Huntress/Amby Leigh - You sounded a little younger than I imagined Huntress sounding, but in the flashback, you got the tougness downpat. Great job. =3

Batman/Ydoc Nameloc - I <333 your Batman voice, Cody. It's fabulous... and so deep... lol

Joker/Sparf - XDDD As everyone else has already stated, WOW. You ARE Mark Hamill, AREN'T YOU?

Two-Face/Evil Guru Dood - Your voice is so deep for your age... gracious... There were a few times where you sounded like a younger guy with a low voice, but most of the time you had me totally convinced. Awesome. ;)

Dr. Harleen Quinzel/Katie - Omg. Ewww. Alabamian girls have the lamest brooklyn accents. End of story. XD Hopefully I can pull Harley off better than Dr. Quinzel. *shrug*

Laura/Mixing - Laura, this is absolutely fabulous. It sounds truly professional. It really does. The only thing I would have suggested would have been too take the static out of EGD's lines, that was due to the volume increase. Aside from that, I have absolutely NOTHING to say... which is good. *_*

[Batgirl]

XP Katie you did FINE.

And thank you for the compliments. *SpinPose*

[topleka]

Woah...::fwomp:: Beautiful! I love Batman, and No Man's Land was one of the coolest series evaaar! Beautiful Laura, just beautiful.

Sparf, I'm gonna die if I hear you anymore, because you're too blinkin' good. O_O Everyone was good, really. Now I'm really surprised that I landed a role in this, even if it's a small one. This is quite amazing. ::waits for more::

[sparf]

*blushes* Everyone...you're seriously all too kind. I'm really overwhelmed by the compliments on my performance in this...just...well...

Thanks.

Everyone else rocked too, as everybody's said already. I really loved our Batman and Gordon, especially! And Huntress! (and everyone else :) )

[Batgirl]

Ah face it Sparf, you were awesome.

In other news, I'm mildly amused that Episode 0 and Episode 1 are both on page one, albeit Episode 0 is pretty far down. That amuses me for no reason.

le w00t.

>>

Soon there will be episode 1.5 to add to this. oO Dear God.

[kt_rocks]

ah.. yay! That was realy good! ^__^!

[LionelRGuy]

This was definitely one of the best products I've been a part of thus far. Have to say, my fave voices were those of Huntress, Gordon, Two-Face, and, of course, JOKER! (Sparf = pretty damn good) Not to mention Oracle from episode 0..... :wink: So yeah, I can't wait for the future episodes.


Dt. Harvey Bullock/Ry-Guy - Woah... you make a great Bullock... you totally have the accent down... is it natural?
Glad ta hear ya enjoy one of my favorite voices to do. Though no, it is not natural. It IS probably my longest-used voice for dubs and RP's, as it's the voice I've been doing for Beelzemon over at FET's for about 2 1/2 years now. So yeah, I've just had enough time to practice it is all. :P But yeah, before I sound like TOO much of a self-absorbed asshole....


Sergeant Hugh Foley/U-1 - OMG... WOAH. You sound SO much like a professional VA who I cannot recall at the present moment... I wanna say Vash's English voice, but it may be someone else... I just know that I really like the voice.
I also hear that hint of Johnny Yong Bosch (aka Adam, the 2nd Black Ranger), Vash's VA.

[Ridgewolf]

...probably should have posted earlier, but I've listened to this Episode around twenty times, and continue to do so. I wouldn't say I'm addicted or anything, but there's just something about it that I like. I can't get it out of my head.

Oh well, when the going gets tough...the tough...go SHOPPING! (joker moment)

Good job, everyone. Laura, your mixing seems balanced and controlled.

Huntress: I'll attribute your performance to both your talent and Laura's producing. Props. :)

Pettit: Did I meet you in boot as a Drill Sergeant? Good job. :D

Bullock: Nice. Real nice. You had me convinced.

Two-Face: A little wavering, I think. As mentioned above, it did seem like your characterization moved between Two-Face, and also a 'growling you.' No worries. With a little more work you'll lock it down. BTW, good job with the anger management classes you're taking. :-D (Rectally? OUCH!) Oh, and you might want to mess with your microphone volume/recording equipment/settings. I noticed some 'white noise' behind your voice when your lines came on.

Doctor Quinzel: Don't think you did a bad job. No, you didn't do a 'dead-on' impersonation of Harley, but your interpretation DID fit well. I was convinced. Good job. :)

Foley: Nice. :) I can see why Laura put you for this character. You've got that 'average guy' sound. :P Seriously, I don't know much about your character, but you sounded good. Oh, BTW, you might want to fiddle with your recording volume. I noticed 'white noise' behind your voice when your lines came on too.

Joker: Who?

:wink:

Batman: If your voice didn't fit, none of the rest of this would really be worth it, would it? Good job. There's not much I have in critique for you so I'll leave it at that.


Excellent work, people. I'm very glad to be a part of something that sounds this good. All we have to do now is just bang down Laura's door often enough so she keeps mixing. :D I'm ready for Episode Two, of course. LOL :wink:

For those who have commented about my contribution, thank you. Your compliments were well, and happily received. :)


Keep safe, everyone. 8)

[sparf]

That's so cruel, Ridgewolf. XD

[Tolmek]

I'd pick my jaw up off the floor, but there's no point since it would drop again as soon as I relisten to this. ^^

Don't have anything much to add to what's already been said.

Fantastic work, all of you. I look forward to joining in somewhere down the line. ^^

[kalikan]

Sparf, your amazing!!The whole cast is amazing! I feel soooo honored to be a part of this cast!! Even if I don't come in for another 6 months.... ^^ Seriously, awesome job, everyone! Mixing is excelent.

[Cassie]

Duuude...

You aren't opening any more auditions for this, are you? *would love to be part of this*

Everyone was wonderful! Joker has to be my favourite. You were possessed by Mark Hamill, weren't you?

[sparf]

nah, he just threatened to use my head for a bowling ball... XD

[Batgirl]

Duuude...

You aren't opening any more auditions for this, are you? *would love to be part of this*

Everyone was wonderful! Joker has to be my favourite. You were possessed by Mark Hamill, weren't you?

Actually? Yes. There are still some bit parts/extras That I shall hold auditions for on a Per Episode Basis. >>

Actually I believe I am opening Ep. 4 Auditions Today!

[Dylan]

Just finished recording for episode 3, and got inspired to listen to 0, 1 and 1.5 again.

Since this topic is about 1:

Shooz, this is really awesome. I'm very impressed by everyone, one of the coolest things in my opinion was the chemistry betwee the Joker and Two-face, that dialogue worked really well.

Thumbs up, ladies and gents, great job!

[Ridgewolf]

Of course, we (most certainly myself) are looking forward to hearing your performance as well. :) You'll do well Dylan, I know it.



And that...um...Napier guy...Oh...shoot...you know...what's-his-name...? :twisted:

Well, whatever his name is, I'm sure he will continue to impress us with his talent and skill. :)


Keep safe. 8)

[Blue Lionheart]

This was excellent. I wish I could have applied for some of these parts... I'm a huge Bat-man fan. And this was done very well.

[GForce]

I can't listen to it because the link is broken.

[Batgirl]

Yeah I had to re-upload again, but it's up now.
