The blog states: "..download one of the following two scripts..."  But Section 3 of the offical rules has "Scripts" pluralized. I'm going to guess you can only enter a reading of only one script, but I would appreciate any official clarification if anyone has it.

No clarification, but I've had the impression that we're just supposed to choose one script and stick with it.

I too, would appreciate some official clarification. I was under the impression that we were to only to read from one script, but when I watch on YouTube, a bunch of people are reading from both...?

I had a Youtube account for a few years but made a video for this yes, so, *half raises hand*.

Well recording my voice has, at the very least, been amusing.  I can't decide if I sound understated or flat.

[Heimdall]

Could use some feedback, anyone up for it?

 

Pardon the terrible microphone quality

There we can look all participants or there is another theme?

I don't understand your question

[ladyofpayne]

I don't understand your question

I can hear here all works of people, who want to win or there is another theme?

I have no idea what you mean when you say theme, but no, this isn't a place for listening to all participants.

Gave it a shot. I'm not sure if I made it too angry, but I think it's OK.

 

[PsychoBlonde]

Well, here I go, embarrassing myself in public:

 

[ElvaliaRavenHart]

Well this could be fun.  LOL, interesting contest.  I think I'll take a peek at the script. 

[Nimlowyn]

I don't expect to win, but I'm going to enter anyway just for the fun of it!

[OrayMoor]

I will become a US resident this summer, do you think I can try?

I really want to try, it looks like fun!

So in my introduction video I say "you'll either be playing the part of the villager or the sene... the other one" but you're right the legal rules are a bit vague (probably for legal reasons lol). The original intention is one script as in the introduction video that we made, however I doubt Caroline is going to rule someone out she finds enchanting because they submitted two scripts. I also don't think that someone submitting two scripts is going to tip the scales either. They're very different reads. Best not to overwhelm the person judging you, in my opinion

 

What I have seen professional voice artists do on reels and in the booth that I think is perfectly fine in this situation is to submit more than one take of *one* script. So while still following the directions you are given on the script (don't deviate like previous posters have already mentioned), it's fine to submit a video/audio clip where perhaps you put emotion into different lines or you emphasize words differently, or you change your tone enough that it makes a difference without completely making a caricature out of yourself. Remember, Caroline is interested in your speech patterns not how good you can mimic someone else's (though if you are 100% confident that's the direction you want to take it, go for it! Have fun!!). 

 

And for those people who say you don't have the stuff to record, like someone mentioned, Audacity is free to download and I've recorded loads of things using my laptop's webcam microphone. An easy way to get good sound from a pretty awful mic is to cover yourself and the mic with a nice thick blanket and record in your newly made blanket fort for one. I learned that trick from Jennifer Hale. That's what she does when she has to record in a hotel or something. 

Lastly, for those of you who are nervous, do it for fun and don't submit if you don't want to. Just share with your friends and try something new. Maybe as the end of the contest gets nearer you'll change your mind and submit it! 

For those people who are ineligible this time, we're working with our other territories on initiatives. We're a global brand and I always hate when people feel excluded. I really hope you enjoy listening to your fellow players' entries and cheering them on though - we'll work on getting equally cool stuff down the line for you guys

[Hazegurl]

I submitted my recording, didn't post to youtube though. Seriously, do I have to let the world know my voice and acting suck. lol! Entered for the fun of it though. This is so exciting.

[fdgvdddvdfdfbdfb]

I'd love to see you guys post your contest entries in here so I can put the voices with the SN.

Plus, it'd be a great place to see and share them.

 

I'll even start: Here's mine.

HAHAHAHHA Please win

 

Well I didn't do accents or even an introduction, but here's mine:

-50 for audio quality, youtube probably made it worse, but I attached the original file to the e-mail for the entry

Oooh, I need to try this. My I've been using my iPads built in mic because it's all I got.

[Heimdall]

Well, this isn't what I'm submitting, but I recorded a few takes. I tried an Orlesian accent for fun, but I think I started sounding Antivan.

[Renmiri1]

Oh this is going to be so much fun! My daughter loves to voice act so she will try and I will too.

 

I wonder if my light accent will throw a curve ball in my chances. 

 

In any case, it is wonderful to know a fan will be part of DAI
