Hey /v/.
I'm working on reading and voicing every book in Skyrim for use in a portfolio, and I wanted to share with you one of my readings, because there is no critique like /v/ critique.
The idea is to read every book in the most likely voice of the author. Imperials will have a certain tone, Khajiit, etc. This is a very rough runthrough of the 16 Accords of Madness.
I plan to release the entire 200+ library on the Nexus, to be used with the Books Aloud mod.

What do you think? Like I said, this is a rough draft, the final will have some more consistancy in pronunciation.
>>352658760
I expected shit, but this sounded really good, nice work OP
my one complaint is that I think I may have heard some background noise, but I'm not sure.
>>352658760
You're pretty good.
>>352659361
I think my dog moved around and it might have picked up the jangling. I'm hoping after I do the final versions, it should be 100% clear.>>352659484
Hey, thanks so much!
Does anyone have any book requests? I'm just going down the alphabetical list and I'm so goddamn sick of Carlovac's writing. He has some cool subject matter, but he never sticks with a scene long enough for it to be interesting.
>>352658760
Absolutely amazing. Great work. Keep at it.
>>352659653
Do the lusty argonian maid
>>352658760
good job , nigga
>>352659653
Not gonna lie, you're talented. Do you do voice over work for a living?
>>352658760
Nice work man.
>>352658760
Sounds professional, anon.
nice
>>352658760
bretty gud
>>352659653
It's not a book, but I'd love to hear you read A Worn and Weathered note. It's my favorite written piece from the Elder Scrolls games.

unironic upboat
You should be reading nasty smut copypasta instead.I am jealous of your voice.
>>352658760
Came expecting shit but...
Not bad OP
>>352660457
not OP, but I love that one too
fuck, i remember finding that and immediately searching it on the wiki to try and figure out what it's about
that thing's bugged me for years. who wrote it? why? what's it about?
thanks for reminding me fgt, now i get to agonize over this again

i hope she doesn't get blacked or mugged by refugees ;(
>>352658760
I lurk, not post.
But I had to come in to say, damn you are good.
Please voice every book and make it into a mod so that books are read every time you read one in game.
DO IT FAGGOT
>>352658760
expected fapping but damn that is good.
Wow this is fantastic man good work!
>>352658760
Holy fucking autism

I really think it's about someone who achieved CHIM for a brief moment, but lost it. After that moment they never were the same.

OP do more, I want to perform oral on your vocal cords.
>>352659813
THIS
>>352658760
You should be sending this in to every vidya game company you can think of. Good stuff.
very impressed OP have you ever auditioned for voice acting?
>>352658760
do you have an email OP? you sound like a good voice actor and I could use your talent :o
http://vocaroo.com/i/s0hIexItNg09
>>352658760
Definitely keep going with it, I'd replay Skyrim just to find and read as many books as I could if they were narrated like this.
>>352660917
Yeah, I'm pretty sure OP is just building a portfolio in order to obtain actual work. Well, I hope that's what he's doing.
This is great stuff, do you have more?
I wanna listen to it in the background while playing vidya.

Holy shit. I wanna fuck your voice. After this project of yours, you should add more samples of dialogue with different tones and inflections too. You're a good book reader but, by nature, book reading is mostly monotone.
>>352660457

>>352660650

>>352661382
That's the idea. I can't think of a better resume builder than literally hundreds of short stories!

Dear diary: Today OP was not a faggot and in fact is one of the coolest people on this earth.
Keep on rocking.
Signed,
A massive faggot
>>352661917
Imperial would fit the author.
Woah, sounds nice. But you're going to narrating a lot of books with different voices, will this mod be a long project?
>>352658760
I dig it
You have a great voice anon,keep it up.
Add a slutty outfit to it and I'll download
>>352661917
Imperial.
You might want to read some other stuff too to expand your portfolio. Read a bit of classic literature and maybe some Sci-fi or military fluff.
>>352658760
Honestly excellent, please continue. I'd download a finished product.
>>352662242
This is kind of an expansion to an already existing mod, Books Read Aloud. The current release has computerized voices, but I thought that was dumb, and so I wanted to do a professionally acted, full reading of every book.
If it's well recieved, I may do Morrowind as well, but that's a huge 'if."
>>352658760
Fuck me OP, great work!
Currently editing A Worn and Weathered Note!
ETA: Ten minutes!

>>352658760
>I'm working on reading and voicing every book in Skyrim
lol that's the gayest fucking thing.
>https://clyp.it/piguwjvu
...Fuck me sideways, I take back what I screeched internally.
You know, if you added an option to continue the reading after putting the book away, I could "read" every single book while hunting some deer and shit.
I have a question - your current voice is appealing... But what of your other ones? What's your Argonian drawl like?
>>352663148
The mod I'm making this for does that very thing!
And I can do pretty much any of the races. In a couple of the books I've done yet, I pull out Argonian and Khajiit!
>>352663017
I will ABSOLUTELY check this out!
In the meantime, you guys wanna hear some character packs I made for Baldur's Gate?
This is good but I'd rather not listen to every book being read this dramatically
Going from quiet to loud to quiet
If I'm playing the game I just want to hear what the book has in it not a reenactment of it yknow
>>352663335
>In the meantime, you guys wanna hear some character packs I made for Baldur's Gate?
YES
...I mean.
Yeah, like, if you wanna, no biggie.
>>352663534
Only some of them are like that. I try to research the authors as much as possible, and there are some authors that I think would be MUCH more deadpan. I wanted to stay as lore friendly as possible.
>>352663615
Ok fair enough

Do a fabulous imperial voice. Curio was a noted fabulous bisexual pervert who was also a political and financial madman. Think David Bowie meets Willy Wonka.
>>352663707
Your Chaotic Neutral is like a roguish sailor character you met in a bar. Bro material.

Dayum son that fucking voice, I'm hard
>>352663335
Absolutely.
>>352658760
Jesus Christ even after seeing the posts saying this was good you still suprisied me with how good this was. Good luck with the mod.
>>35265876
I listen to quite a few audio books, and you're just as good as any of those readers, if not better. Outstanding work. My one suggestion is maybe add a bit more range to your performance. Your sample in the OP did the dark and doom sections very well, but a bit of lightness would have been good as well. Then again, with how short each book in game is, it probably wont matter all that much if each individual piece doesn't have a wide vocal range in it. Either way, fantastic job OP
>>352658760
Hot damn, son. I hope someone picks you up for professional work after this drops, you've got some solid range and your delivery is really strong.
>>352658760
>https://clyp.it/piguwjvu
Not bad, I was expecting a nasally high pitched voice, pleasently surprised.
Jesus Christ guys, you have me all flustered like a big ol' faggot!
Truly, thank you for the kind words. And as promised, here's some sweet Imperial on Argonian action. I can't do a female Argonian, so I've made this book into a homoerotic reimagining.
https://clyp.it/snbt0uc3
>>352664567
I tried to read this like it was the same level of acting as actual porn. If you'd like volume 2 to be a little more range-y, let me know!
>>352664567
>>352664567
Your Argonian is spot on.
That's all I wanted to know.Male Argonian voice, I laughed.

OP, what kind of audio set up are you using? I assume you must be using an XLR microphone and an audio interface, right?
>>352664817
...yeah, I can't argue with that.
I was going for like, not TOO New Yorky, but like...some sort of urban voice. Ah well. I loved recording it, and I liked the personality it had!
>>352664567
Given who wrote this I can't really say this is a disservice. Fantastic.
>>352664567
>https://clyp.it/snbt0uc3

This has me wondering how you're gonna do banter between dark elves and khajiits though.
Did you ever read that Argonian merchant series of books? Would you ever consider reading the novel in this link? http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Morrowind:The_Locked_Room

Indie dev here. Last voice actor fell through. Need a few lines done, 2-4 pages atm, maybe more. Just 1 character. Tutorial lines and then actual story dialogue.
Older, weathered, well-read scientist type. Script is being worked out but we'll need lines in the coming months. You got a contact email OP?
Not gonna sugar coat, it's me and 2 other devs at the moment, so money won't be great. First game were making out of college but were over a year into it. Maybe we can work something out. Name on credits of course.
About to sleep but if you post an email or contact here I'll try to get back to you tomorrow. If not the weekend.
Immortal Blood is currently being recorded! Stand by!
In the interim, I'm actually lead voice actor in a project called Fallout 4: Cascadia, give it a quick peek if you want!
>>352665574

Could you please read this pic in an imperial voice or whatever really? You are amazing and beat a lot of hacks that are in the biz.
>>352658760
I like what you're doing
In the Maid narrated your Argonian sounds like he's out of Oblivion when the beast races shared a voice though instead of the duller and less accented skyrim version
I would really like to hear what you could do with The Sallow Regent or Mannimarco, King of Worms, since they have a bit of rhyme going on

Wew lad. Do you like getting fucked in the ass by indie devs? I bet you're a supporter on both someone's patreon and kickstarter alike. Remove yourself from the genepool, my pathetic friend.
Currently editing immortal blood, and holy wow, that was a good read!
>>352658760
Great job bro! I would critique the higher pitch parts and certain words. you lose you accent and it sounds very flat. It just needs more practice, the biggest critic is yourself

I'mma put this out there for everyone who has said they wish they could get into voice acting, or who has any dreams of it.
Above in this thread, ctrl+f and you'll find my setup. Youtube is remarkable, and you can find tutorials endlessly there. I'll be honest, here's how I practice the actual speaking.
When you're taking a shit, just make up quiet monologues to yourself. Practice inflections in the car. Read game text aloud when you're alone, and practice in the dark. If you have that practice, and listen to other voice actors on YouTube (Look up Voice Sessions, they're amazing!) all it takes is gear. And there are a thousand others just like me with deep voices, it's the people with different voices that have the leg up on me.
Do it, my friends. You have my email and my steam, and if I can help you get started, you need but ask.

If it's in skyrim, it'll DEFINITELY be in the game! I can usually do about five books a day, since I also do a shitty ass YouTube thing which takes a lot of time, but I'll probably be popping into /v/ every so often to do more requests since I'm a greedy little whore who likes the eyeballs on me!

But he is not serving the purpose of a witness type narrator. He involves himself heavily into the story and is the central figure of certain acts within the narrative chain in which Quartich doesn't even appear, ergo he's the protagonist.

I'm from an euro country with regional (sub)dialects, but being born in a somewhat large city I never developed a full thick accent. Would it be too hard to do it now as an adult?

Here you are!
I was looking through my folder and I saw something that I hadn't thought about in forever. It might be a bit long, though.
>>352671369
My trick is to find standup comedians or public speakers with the accent I'm trying to emulate. It works out realy well since it's just hours of people talking in a specific way, and you can really get a grip on the subtle nuiances!
My Australian is entirely derived from Jim Jefferies

>>352671807
My main problem is that if I try to speak it in public, it sounds forced and over the top. Guess I'll just have to practice in my house until I can hit that sweet spot between forced and faint.
Have you ever used an accent(that was not innate) in public?

>>352658760
You have fantastic timbre to your voice, but there are some pacing issues. Longer pauses in appropriate places would be better.
Also a fair bit of over-acting. Some of the heavier lines are comical instead of ominous. I understand the pieces are meant to have an ominous, intense atmosphere to them, but it all seems over-done.
Honestly, you have a great voice, but some professional acting advice might be best for you. Getting feedback from us is flattering, but we're not really qualified to genuinely critique you. There's a significant talent here, so please do carry on.

I mean, he pretty much said that's the point of all this
btw OP, what kinda equipement you using?
just a mic and interface or you have a preamp as well?
Also what mic?
I work with reading for the blind and dyslexic, although they've changed their name a few times. OP's work is useful to the disabled community, specifically for people who have enough functionality to play, but can't deal with walls of text.
>>352668334
Shut your nerd hole, bitchtits. Bethesda's got zero chance of challenging this, and even if they did, there's a fair use application big enough to drive a truck through.
Once OP has enough of a demo reel, perhaps anon could help him pick out some choice bits for the front of the portfolio.
Best thread I've seen all year. Well done OP, and best of luck.
hot voice op
OP, whoever does the programming for the mod get him/her to have it not auto play but have a button to make it start reading, and someway to turn it of or pause it if needed.
I never post but your voice makes miracles happen.
>>352679532 Said it best.
Longer pauses on the books would do wonders if the point is to tell a story. It's obviously different if the character would be hurrying through a book as fast as possible.
How heavy the acting can be would depend on the setting of the game as well. Over-acting being definitely better than the disinterested basic voices of Skyrim for example.
Would prefer your voice above a majority of them in current games OP!

>I'm working on reading and voicing every book in Skyrim for use in a portfolio
>portfolio
are you that bad at reading or just retarded? making a portfolio for employers is a hell of a lot better way to use your time than shitposting on 4chan

Unidentified sides have just crashed on mars
I hope OP has realized by now that /v/ is fucking with him and that he's actually shit. Also, the Skyrim books are horribly written.

Good job anon, you're already better than 90% of the industry.
>>352658760
AAAAAAAW SHEEET- This is as awesome as a spring tide possum during the yule ball. Keep up the excellent work man!
>>352658760
I expected the voice of a scrawny little kid, I'm genuinely surprised. good job
This is awesome dude, you should make it so you can select a book to read whilst journeying, kind of like the radio in Fallout games. So that I can either hear your narration of the book in my inventory while I ride my horse, or while sat in my house by the fire, rather than having the book in my face.
>>352658760
Dude, you're very talented.
Do you have some sort of training, like acting classes or something related with the voice?
kek, silly question but i've always wanted to get into this stuff.
>mfw have a good voice
>can't into accents
Teach me OP. I've passed a Cambridge English Advanced exam yet I still can't speak properly.
>>352674491
could someone lend me a hand?
>>352658760
>>352658760
fuckin good shit anon
>>352658760
Get rid of that background noise and use some sound proofing/dampening in the room and it's golden.
>>352664567
I want to fuck your mouth

>>352665574
Hooooooooleeeeee sheeeeet.
Hey voice actor anon
If you're still here how do I start out learning to do this kind of stuff?
>>352706624
She reminds me of Angela White, but I cannot confirm.
PALLA WHEN?
That was my favorite book series in TES.
>>352658760
Like one anon already said I expected shit when I read your post but you're actuallypretty good.
>>352664567
>homoerotic reimagining
I've fapped to the idea of a Rusty Argonian Servant many times before now. I better be getting credit for this!
>>352708516
pretty sure that's her, thanks!
This is one of the best /v/ threads in a long, long time.
I fucking salute you, OP.
>>352664567
Can you say "...and there goes the nuggets...." in the deepest voice you can?
I need it, for reasons.
>>352658760
You sound like a young Simon Templeman would love to hear you do Kain
>>352709296
this is why i keep coming here, once in a while we have an amazing thread like this
>>352660457
This must be a Kirkbride, right?
>>352658760
Something about the cadence of your reading is off. It sounds very flat and pauses at really odd times, making it hard to follow.
Your voice is great (as you know) but if you're wanting to build a portfolio, get a better grasp of the material you're reading before recording and add more inflection and variance to the lines.
>>352658760
I like it.
>>352706624
ahahahahahahah
>>352664567
this is fucking amazing
i wish you well in all future endeavors
>>352658760
Read them in thick vodka accent.
