I'm almost shocked. I didn't know there was enough of a demand for the OST for a release.

Goddamn dedication right there.

Yeah, I have this thread bookmarked in an obvious place and check it once every two or three days. Given how long this thread has been up, I've probably spent more time than I'd like to admit checking for updates. I might as well use this post to comment on Alex's Bryce. I actually dig it, specifically the tone you managed to pull off. I would have no issues with you getting the roll.

Well, there are alternate ways to get the effect of removing the original voices to seamlessly fit the cinematic with our dub. It would require you to edit in the music and sounds yourself though (After, of course, muting the original track). With the use of echo and other various effects (Including birds chirping for ambience), you can fit the sounds and voices to the desired environment. Edited for clarification

Hey Alex, I'm pretty sure we're always happy to see some new auditions. I think you have the range for a lot of the characters you voiced, I particularly liked your Oscar, Kieran, and especially your Nealuchi; you do the "old man" voice pretty well. Expanding what I said about your range. I can imagine you voicing a lot of the characters you posted but I think you should try doing different voices for them (Example, I think your Boyd is more fitting of one of the unnamed enemy soldiers, since you gave him a relatively noir-sounding voice). It's hard for me to provide specific direction since vocals are somewhat subjective, but I would wager that you won't have much trouble with any character that has a mid-tone-like voice. WELCOME TO THE HIVE.

The first page provides all the information you need regarding filled roles. However, you're free to provide a voice for any character you'd be interested in. If it comes down to the role already being filled, a character can be suggested for you so long as you have no issues with that. Edited for clarification

Sure, no reason we can't do two or three at once. Let us assess who can make themselves available and go on from there.

I don't recall this dub being overly selective at any point. To be honest, I think what happened was that we got a couple of great voices with good equipment and it ended up intimidating potential applicants. Anyway Fionorde, Tomo and I actually came from a 4chan community that this dub was reaching out to some time ago, while Jvonm came on board after a post was made to a hobbyist (Of sorts) voice acting forum. So this dub is open to reaching out towards other people that are interested in Fire Emblem/Dubbing if you have any suggestions. Anyway Fion, don't be afraid to apply to a few roles if you're interested. Same goes for you Joethebrave. Edit: I forgot to comment on Jvonm's update. I'm sure Adam will appreciate the effort you've put in towards modifying your voice. If I can say anything about your Black Knight I think you really got the mannerisms down.

Given the time that has past I declare that we edit the first post to state this: To stay alert on updates, make this thread your home page, save a link to it on your desktop, or place it on your bookmark toolbar. Really just do anything to keep it on your mind, not too intrusive but always there. In the meantime, FIRST POST 2014. BOOYAH.

Excellent, then would you be able to utilize your immense resources towards tracking down our casted voices? Also, Christopher Sabat, simply because I would love to hear his Tauroneo.

What a shame, I was really looking forward to hearing Stomoman's beautiful voice again. I do hope they come around, and for the future, we should probably exchange skype information (or alternative emails). Expect mine in your inbox.

I'd hate to have no input regarding scenes, but nothing really comes to mind for me in terms of what we should prioritize. That being said, I'm okay with the singing scene as long as the voices behind it are up to the task. Also Etern, for your convenience I'll be posting the characters that I have been accepted as so we can open up the number of scenes we can do: Seeker - http://fireemblem.wikia.com/wiki/Seeker Mackoya - http://fireemblem.wikia.com/wiki/Mackoya Kotaff - http://fireemblem.wikia.com/wiki/Kotaff Kasatai - http://fireemblem.wikia.com/wiki/Kasatai Ashnard - http://fireemblem.wikia.com/wiki/Ashnard Ikanau - http://fireemblemwiki.org/Ikanau Heddwyn - http://fireemblem.wikia.com/wiki/Heddwyn Gashilama - http://fireemblem.wikia.com/wiki/Gashilama Gromell - http://fireemblem.wikia.com/wiki/Gromell Balmer - http://fireemblem.wikia.com/wiki/Balmer Maijin - http://fireemblem.wikia.com/wiki/Maijin They're all bosses, ranging from several points in the game, so feel free to draw from this selection. Just so you know, I've recently been considering redoing my Maijin, so if you request that I do his voice I'll provide you the old voice I did in addition to a new one I have been practicing. As for main characters, the only role that I have done is Mordecai (http://fireemblem.wikia.com/wiki/Mordecai) Edit: Fixed some links that didn't work

That was a nice thing you did for TheBeard Etern, I was just about to download the files until I saw your link. I'm going to be honest, I really enjoyed your voices TheBeard. You have quite the fabulous range, that being said, if you ever want to do future auditions you would be helping tremendously by doing the older characters. I only suggest them because they still remain mostly uncasted, however, if you want to try for youthful characters I won't dissuade you. The only audition I would suggest you reconsider is Rhys. Being that he's a younger character, I thought there was a bit of a miss match when I heard it. If you you think you can provide a more youthful voice I'd say give it another go.

The third one would be the simplest solution, just lower the contrast to the point where the scene is pitch black (Or make a black image in MS Paint and just put that in above the video layer for the time there are no images accomodating the dialogue). The Naesala cutscene would just be zoomed in to the point where the text box is off screen. You can do camera pans and whatnot to keep it interesting. That being said, the idea is purely for visual flair and may not even be worth it in the end. However, the effort would certainly make the dub appear uniquely presented. I actually look forward to seeing what this type of editing would to for some of the really static dialogue moments like the support conversations. Your voice really suits all of the voices you auditioned for, and I'm glad to see that another boss role has been done. They're really fun and campy and I'd recommend them to anyone if they wished to contribute a minor role. Regardless, I'm certain that Etern would approve of your singing, we have had Reyson auditions in the past just as capable, but since his role requires a lot of talent I'm sure he'd be willing to have a few extras. Unfortunately your Ashnard could use a bit of work. I can't say I'm an ideal model since I feel my voice is not deep enough to do Ashnard, but that being said, I go as deep as I can and give him a lot of rasp when I perform him (https://soundcloud.com/jubedube/ashnard-yelling). If you think your voice can handle it, which you should DEFINITELY consider since you're singing, I'd say go for it.

Adding to this discussion, something that I've been wanting to bring up is that since we are aiming to create an alternate way to enjoy PoR (Aka, completely through voices), something I've been wondering is how we can put that flavor to our advantage to create a unique and possibly improved way to experience the story. To provide an example, we could technically do away with the text boxes, zooming in the camera so they're out of sight to purely focus on the in-game cutscenes. That being said, I know that you're busy these days Etern, and putting forth that sort of effort in this dub was not your original intent. However, a key thing to drawing in people is showing them something new, or at the very least, different. The example above isn't really an idea I'm 100% behind, but hopefully you can see what I'm trying to suggest. Tell me what you think, and good luck with contacting Stomoman; I very much enjoyed his voice from what I recall.

I think your Shinon is just fine. The voice you put on for him is fitting of his character for sure. Recently I got bored and looked over some of the bosses in the game. That being said, I'm submitting two auditions for these characters: Kotaff and Gashilama. Auditions are here: Kotaff: https://soundcloud.com/jubedube/kotaff Gashilama: https://soundcloud.com/jubedube/gashilama I'd appreciate any feedback from you guys. The boss characters are quite fun for me since they're very one note, so I don't mind adjusting my voice if I need to.

If you're seeking a second opinion I'll offer one. Zelda Brawler's Ena is definitely suitable in my opinion. The character has the capacity for a broad range of voices given the fact that she's a dragon, but the softer tone Zelda Brawler uses fits her personality well. Regardless, I find it funny that Stefan has been mentioned in the last few posts since I've considered auditioning for him recently. The only problem is that his voice has been a REAL challenge for me. I have a great idea of how I want him to sound, but I just can't do the voice the way I want to. So far I just sound like a roguish version of my Ashnard when I try it. Unless you're curious about it I'd rather just see what other people provide for Stefan in the meantime.

Glad to see we're getting some progress in this thread. I only have to ask, since Flame Emblem is providing Gatrie's voice, do we remember who originally was cast for Gatrie? I think it was Eail or Boomsickle, but I just can't remember. Regardless, I'm sure they won't mind Flame Emblem covering for them.

Did Jvonm leave any additional means to contact him? I'm not certain if he still frequents the Voice Acting Alliance, or if he initially sent you his audition through email. He definitely needs to know he's needed.

I am still down to provide voices for this project, regardless of its status. Funny to think that it was conceived years ago now (Even our posts are a year old now), so clearly Etern has made lifestyle changes that has impacted his capacity to dedicate time to this dub. Not that I see that as a problem though, it's really just a matter of when Etern is able to do it, and if the people who have signed up are still able to help.

From what I recall Hoss did an audition for Rhys and was given the role. However, since Hoss has not responded for quite some time I think it's reasonable that you go for it. I'm looking forward to hearing it.

Good to hear, don't hesitate to post them here if you'd like a group opinion.

Excellent, I'm looking forward to hearing them. Your auditions I mean.

Just letting you know I'm still alive. If you haven't heard from Ruby yet, I say a gentle reminder is in order. Classes (Or other obligations) have probably deterred her for the moment.

I understand classes have started this month Etern, but have you managed to contact Ruby?
