You betcha this is another university project that is going to hell and back and is in tomorrow morning which means no sleep for me! i'm doing wired stuff with after effects and flash after my main idea just didn't really come together as i wanted it to... So why the voice acting? well i need a voice over and while i could do it my self my recoding stuff isn't very good and i'm not good at voices so i'm looking for some help.
It's only short, the whole thing has to be less than 60 seconds, so the voice over should only be 40-50 seconds based on what i've written. I need an old wise wizard voice type thingy or a fantasy film trailer voice over, i'm honestly not too picky... and by late tonight i'll no doubt make a fool of my self trying to do it if i can't find some one.
The project is about books and reading and types of book... this bit of the course is about using 'common' symbolism to get over ideas... in this case we are asked to make something that challenges the idea of the ereader by using a character based on a type of book... most of what people have been doing is much about the 2nd bit of that rather than the first but anyway my idea was trying to link something in the type of book with best of the physical books... and the thing that sprang to mind was the idea of books being like spell books which is nice and links with the idea of physical books rather than just text.
Any way here's the "script"
Legend tells of an ancient book of sorcery and magic so powerful those who read it can transport them selves to other places, other times even other worlds! For a thousand years it has remained locked away deep with in a crypt guarded by the Grate Dragon El’ranteranla. Many brave heroes have fallen to her fiery breath but on this day comes the one destined to defeat her. A grate and mighty wizard of the battle order Oriny, master of the western marches, lord of the 7 towers, guardian of the last gate and keeper of world key! His name will live on for ever, he is the Grand High Lord Wizard Derrick! Using the grate power of the legendary talisman known only as The Library Card he banish El’ranternla and unlocks those ancient gates to claim his prize
The idea is most of it is all very serious and such untill the Derrick name turns up at which point all that fades away leaving us with a little boy dressed up as a wizard and the dragon being the librarian... all about the kids imagination being unlocked by the book he is trying to get and so on... i think it's easier to keep the voice over fully serious and the name of the dragon and things can be anything so long as there fantasy like
Well, there's a long post no one is going to read... i'll post a link here when what ever it ends up being is "done" heh
If your interested just PM me and we shall sort something out... this isn't i'm afraid a job with cash but you get the joy of helping a fellow cog in his hour of need... or some such rubbish that still isn't useful money!
