oh you're welcome agian hehehe

That wasn't bad...just kinda short though.

[Ayame]

I know it was short...but I really haven't been cast a lot. Most of these are actually just auditions. That and the fact that I practically can only do 3 voices XD

[sparf]

The BGM is a bit too loud in this...it really overpowers the quality of your voice cuts. And I really like what I was able to hear. You've got good enunciation and diction and a good emotional content, so tone the music down a few notches and you've got a good one there. ^__^

[Ayame]

Thanks, sparf. I know I did a really bad job mixing this XD

[Haushinka]

You're awesome.

[Ayame]

You're awesome.

Oh, thank you! *huggles*

[HezbollahAreGo]

Well, being able to do three voices is better than me being able to do just one. :p I like your voice a lot!

[Ayame]

*Bump*

[Ayame]

*Bump* (Last time, promise XD)

I have to differ and say that I think it's actually too long. I heard the same 2 voices used again and again. Longer does not nessesarily mean better.
Another critique I have is that the bgm changes are really startling, and rather sporatic. There doesn't seem to be an organized order to the clips either; it sounds like they're just mashed together.
A good portion of the lines I couldn't understand. For example the third line sounds to me like "I'm going jesus card to make a shop right into Shawna's heart!" Part of this can be fixed by compressing some of the audio which is really loud (the laughing was really shril to my ears) and lowering the background music.
My suggestion would be to wait a bit until you've had time to experiement with a wider variety of characters, and emotional extremes. There were times in the demo when I thought the emotion sounded 'put on;' for example you manipulated your voice to have a crying 'sound' but I didn't hear/believe any of the saddness.
Don't be discouraged. Just keep plugging along.

[Ayame]

Wow, thanks Lucien for the great critique! And I know what you mean about the crying...that's the most fake that I've ever sounded XD

[Lucien]

I'm glad that you took it well XD. I've been applying professional standards to everything lately, to the point that it's even made me think "o.O chill man." At this point though, I can't stop myself.

I'm one of those people who LIKES being told that they're bad/could improve, as long as ways to improve/why I was bad to begin with are given, just like you did ^^
