Re: MSPA Voice Acting Thread 2: Electric Boogaloo!
The breathing thing stood out to me a lot towards both the beginning and the end. I don't know, maybe I'm just sensitive to that sort of thing since that was something I noticed that I really had to work on, and still do, ahahaha...
Though, I think that just pacing yourself a little more and slowing down, like you already said, would help out a lot with making that less noticeable.
Re: MSPA Voice Acting Thread 2: Electric Boogaloo!
So hey guys just a little thing I whipped up for the hell of it! Also if one of you lyricists want to swap lyrics in a song that John can sing I would absolutely love to do it!
Re: MSPA Voice Acting Thread 2: Electric Boogaloo!
I don't spend nearly enough time browsing this thread, because there's a whole lot of talent here.
That very same talent is the reason I'm posting now.
I'm in the process of making a grand finale video update for my Let's Play of UFO: Extraterrestrials and I need some voice actors to represent the characters! There's 10 parts available, with the number of lines for each varying pretty widely. I'd estimate the heaviest workload would be 20-30 lines, but I haven't finished the writing yet, so I can't say for sure. Certainly not much more than that.
If this sounds like something you'd be interested in working on, here's the thread. It's full of cool things like details and specifics!

Re: MSPA Voice Acting Thread 2: Electric Boogaloo!
Hey guys! Say, anyone wanna do my songs? Seriously, of the 8 I've posted, two have been done, and definitely not the best two of the bunch. Any Eridan, Tavros, Karkat, John, Vriska, Aradia, Rose, Terezi, or Kanaya who will help will be loved forever!
Oh wow, I bet I'm being out of line here but it's two in the morning. If it helps, here is my ninth!
"Penny's Song/Every Drop of Rain" from Dr. Horrible as sung by Jade (not spoilering because it's short)
here’s the story of a girl, who grew up with no fam’ly.
followin’ dest’ny’s every whim, just four exiles and me.
even in my trollslum, a whole rainbow can be found!
with every drop of rain, my garden’s growing, pumpkins deep within the ground!
fear replaced with smiling, since I know that we will succeed,
dreams with visions will come true, these visions are what we need!
even if my dreamself dies, those visions hang around,
and when rose plays the rain, oh it is stunning, oh she makes such a perfect sound!
so keep on smiling, tavros, buddy.
(Yeah, I'm kinda giving up on the whole "do Doctor Horrible with my preferred casting" thing because some of the songs make no sense in that context. Like, can you see singing this? I'll do some like that, but not all of them.)

I can try once I'm not sick and I know the song! >_<
Re: MSPA Voice Acting Thread 2: Electric Boogaloo!
Ummmm I know it's Monday but I didn't get a chance to record till today :c
So here is my late Singing Saturday!
Sadly, I can't get a good karaoke backing for this song, but *shrug* it was still fun! Enjoy!
Oh, and also, I'm really excited about Feferi singing a princess song for once
"If I saw my kid on their iPod at dinner, I would instantly assume they were talking to a creepy old guy."

I uh... I could try most of the girls, except Terezi? Give me a minute to go find the lyrics and look at them, I might edit this or send you a PM.
(if that's ok.)
Edit: From looking back at things, I could probably do... Vriska in "A Trolls Gotta Do" and "Reflection" as Kanaya? If a Karkat and a John were found for "A Trolls Gotta Do" of course. I would also love to fill in for some of the voices for "My Eyes (On The Rise)" if you need them. (The other songs I'd love to have a hand in, but don't know well enough.)
Re: MSPA Voice Acting Thread 2: Electric Boogaloo!
@Differential - Not an all-out crossover, probably, just some of the songs.
@MissEva - Thank you so much!! I'm sorry if asking like that is annoying. Anyway, I'm not sure which girl voices I need in My Eyes, but I'd love to get any you can provide!
Also, the new flash update makes me a bit happy because now Nepeta's second line in "My Eyes" actually makes sense! *is shot*

Wow I Would Definitely Not Post This Had You Not Asked, But I Must Admit I Have Tried To Sing Reflection
And Never Got Past This Blooper
But Here
I Will Go Hide Now These Aren't Even The Funny Bloopers

I have an offering: "Slipping" as performed by Jack Noir. This took me forever to write, but I'm really happy with how it turned out. x_x
To the tune of “Slipping” from “Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog”
JACK NOIR taunts the WARWEARY VILLEIN
Look at this peasant - it’s really unpleasant
To stoop to this level.
How foolish to think that alone you could link them
And dethrone the devil!
If only you knew what I do – that we see eye-to-eye –
Your little coup might join me, but now you have to die.
Say goodbye – it’s ending.
Your world is ending.
Behold your rebellion you dimwitted hellion,
Your dreams and ambition!
Had you remained humbled, they need not have crumbled.
You see my position?
You were not meant to lead, so why fight your destiny?
Your revolution’s spent – give in to mortality.
Don’t you see it’s ending?
Everything’s ending today.
So…
Go ahead – run away!
No one can save you now!
Neither king nor a queen,
Prospit or Derse!
Challenge me and you fall –
Heroes are over with!
Not a chance, no remorse!
This is your curse!
I’ll destroy, devastate –
You had this coming to –
Anything in my way!
Skaia meet Veil!
Reckoning – now it’s time
Jack Noir is getting his turn.
You suckers all have to learn
The Medium’s going to burn!
Burn!
(JACK leans over to VRISKA who is taking all of the notes. All of them!)
Yeah, it’s like the film genre. N-O-I-R, yeah right.
Burn!
Not sure if I should do the last bit or not since it doesn't really fit the context. Let me know what you think! c:
I did these: http://tindeck.com/listen/jysj There's a handy mediafire link in there with a zip with all the separate quotes should you want them.
Also: Differential I like that so much. I would say that the song does need that last bit of song to make it feel "complete", you know? But whether or not you do write those last few lines I'd love to give it a try! Just need to find some goddamn freetime...

Really? I'd love to hear a rendition of it! This is the first time I've ever transcribed a song or anything, so I'm glad you like it. c:

Thanks! I knew I wanted it to be Jack needling somebody, but I couldn't decide who. At first I was going to make it the Trolls as he destroyed their session, but WV on the Battlefield fit much better.

Now you’re an outcast,
Defeated and outclassed, no hope for salvation.
Get out of my sight and I’ll spare you in spite – that’s your sole compensation.
Flee your damnation!
There. I added in the last few lines, so the song is officially complete!

Squeeing at the speed of light now. I love Tangled and I was thinking of making a parody of this, but I thought it'd be too hard, and you did a great job! Now what do do next... Thinking something jazzy.
POSE AS A TEAM, CAUSE SHIT JUST GOT OIRISH.
Tavros I know your hate-waifu is like 900 pounds, but get out of BBWChan!

Ah Thank You
And That Number Does Tend To Show Up Oddly Often When It Comes To My Voice Acting Shenanigans
It Would Be Kind Of Creepy Were It Not So Relevant
I Will Redo Reflection If I Get The Chance/Can Actually Manage It Without My Voice Leaping Like Dave Off A Handle
I Will Also Try Every Drop Of Rain Once I Get The Time If You Do Not Mind
And Try To Do Some Parts For On The Rise
Basically I Love Your Lyrics But Am Incapable Of Doing Them Anything Vaguely Resembling Justice Sorry
Re: MSPA Voice Acting Thread 2: Electric Boogaloo!
Can You Feel The Hate Tonight, as sung by Karkitty :3
I’m the one you pester, every fucking day
All of your idiotic words make me want to say
“I’m your fucking leader, I tell you what to do,
I don’t care about your shitty feelings, am I getting through?”
So can you feel the hate tonight?
My wrath reaches far
You disgust me incomparably
How fucking dumb you are
And can you feel the hate tonight
All of your horseshit
It’s enough to make kings and vagabonds
Want to fucking quit
I don’t post my memos to counsel you in love
You are all such dipshit fuckwits, my hate will rise above
Every troll now listen, this I tell you true,
All my anger, rage and torment, sums up with ‘FUCK YOU!’
