Anyone know who Sederis is? The name sounds familiar.

"Brainchild of asari commando Jona Sederis, Eclipse was incorporated as a "proactive" security company. Influenced by asari and salarian military doctrine, Eclipse specializes in sabotage, assassination, and personal and organizational security. Although Citadel governments regard the corporation with suspicion, it's embraced in the Skyllian Verge and Terminus Systems.

Early on, Sederis sought government contracts to establish market share against the better-established Blue Suns. Her agency scored a galactic PR coup by retaking several space stations captured by the Anhur People's Liberation Army and neutralizing its leaders, a victory Eclipse's marketing department never ceases trumpeting.

Based on Omega Station, Eclipse controls nearly 20% of the asteroid's real estate. Its services range from mech repair to open warfare, although assassination is reserved for meeting wider, longer-term company goals (for instance, preemptive strikes against pirates rather than murdering spouses for insurance money.) Despite numerous reports, Eclipse denies sabotaging or kidnapping business rivals. "

Holy crap, I thought I recognized that name as well.

I am still curious why they dropped Ginny McSwain. I am wondering if the matrix tool shown in the Pulse called for a new style of directing that they decided was better done in house.

Ginny McSwain only worked on ME1, and was only one of three VO directors.  Caroline Livingstone was one of those three and was sole VO director on ME2.

Uh no, she was the VO director of ME2 too:

A rather large spoiler was (almost certainly accidentally) revealed in this ep. Here's a cap of some VO file names. Click at your own risk:

Here's a drastically less spoilerly cap of some dialogue in their editor:

Actually, several big spoilers were put in the screenshot of that first one. Whoops, BioWare....

Oops. That's what happens when you don't watch all of the credits.  In any case, Caroline Livingstone got "top billing", as it were, on ME2.  McSwain and Chris Borders are credited nearer the end for "Voice-Over Direction (Los Angeles)".

Whoops indeed. Here's to hoping that those who object to spoilers don't look too closely.

Nice.

I totally know where that is, too.

For some weird reason Dune springs to mind.

[Nashiktal]

So from what I am hearing there are huge spoilers in the video? Or is it if I look to closely at some still frames?

[didymos1120]

Still-frames. I took caps and linked them above, if you want to look.

Thanks didymos, I don't mind spoilers that much as long as I get to choose to see them. I just wanted to be sure that I wasn't going to have spoilers dumped in my lap if I watch the episode.

Who died...

[Mako Zalos]

Wow was kind of a big spoiler, but I saw it coming so I don't mind. Also nice episode hopefully we'll be getting a lot of this in the coming months.

[DxWill10]

"The person who dies"
Hmm. Wonder who that is... although I can think of one squad member who irrevocably fits that description.

The leader of the Eclipse is the only merc boss we've yet to meet, so that's not surprising. Should be an interesting situation.

[Nashiktal]

Wow that was a pretty cool episode actually, even if we had to suffer through all that preorder PR for a good chunk of the episode. A few thoughts...

1. Seeing the tools they use for the voice actors is pretty cool! That "matrix" or whatever they call it is pretty neat way to connect the actors and it seems surprisingly simple in its direction. (like those little mini comments used to give direction to a line)

2. We see a few new scenes of shep in both the PR vid and the VO bit, alongside anderson. It seems shep is going to stick with anderson for quite a bit early on in a survival style scenario if I am reading the mood right. (I havn't read any of the spoilers yet)

3. This might just be me, but does the animation with anderson and shep look odd to anyone else? Its probably an old build, or it just looks weird through a recording, but the animation seems stiff and a bit jittery. Like anderson is a puppet.

4. Its cool to hear a line from jennifer hale, a tiny bit of love to the femshep fans and a single line from TIM about the stars.

All I saw were names of characters..  am I reading it wrong or...

Ope, nevermind. Found the spoiler. Yeah, not surprising at all.

40,000 lines of dialogue!!! Really that's insane. The programs their using to capture and "direct" the VO sounds very interesting. Can barely wait to for ME3!!!

Michael Beattie mentions her being the voice director during his VO sessions.

Yeah, I know.  Read further on in thread.

Those scenes were in the beta leak, so they're only sorta new.

The TIM line is old.  It's from the "Story So Far" video:

As I said in my thoughts, I have never seen the beta leak. I think its safe to assume that most scenes we will see up to ME3 will be nothing new to the folks who spoiled thesmelves with the leak.

[Cloaking_Thane]

Good episode but spoilery! Even the death bits kinda spoiled it for me (leave me and my naivety alone!)
