[original] Drowtales anime intro

[drowtales]

Greetings.
White radish studio will soon begin a new animation, a 18-22 minutes long flash animation meant for drowtales.com as an introduction movie. 3 voices are needed for it but we've selected 2 of them. Though the biggest role, which have 10 minutes worth of lines to read, is open for audition. While this character technically have an accent, because she does the narration we'd prefer that you speak as clearly as possible. So no special accent is required. What i have in mind for this character is like Galladrielle during the beginning of the LOTR movies where she speak about the past. Change your intonation where you see fit. From whisper to loud, peaceful to angry and so on.
If you have any questions, post them here. Thank you.

email subject: Voice audition

Audition lines:
1- "A long time ago; a different world; a different era. The moon age was a golden time for the elven races. They ruled the world and had built a magnificent civilization based upon an unlimited and pure source of energy: mana. ."
2-"Sorcerers and summoners researched the new power more deeply, until one fateful day, when one experiment went wrong. On that day, a gate was opened that should not have been, and hell broke loose. Ethereal beings from the other side entered our world, devouring everyone and everything in their path, sucking dry every source of mana they could find, whether real or artificial, either destroying their target completely or turning them into horribly mutated monsters whose bodies, once destroyed, would only unleash even more foul ethereal energy. "

Special instruction: Female only. Be clear, put emotion, accent is optional.

Media type: Mp3. Up to 10 megs is okay. 64KBps, Mono, 44.1KHz or 128KBps, Stereo, 44.1KHz

Noble accent, something like old england. Well pronounced. The character is a teacher of ancient lore after all.

Awwwww.... And here I was hoping to reprise my role as Shan'naal. Pfoo! I eat cookies now to appease myself. Yarr! Looking forward to the completion of this, anyway. Your animations are nothing short of amazing. And this is not a bump nor a reccomendation to all females to try out RIGHT NOW. :shock: Nosiree.

Thanx for the compliment on the animations. I still don't consider that end-of-chapter animation to be a stellar example of animation, but I'm glad people seemed to like it. :oops: This one will be better!

(I see by your icon that we share a liking for those Luky & Suicide Meg animations!)
