"Final Results From Fourth Voice Axting Contest! :D"

date: October 30, 2009

TOTAL SCORE AVERAGED FROM ALL JUDGES: 46

Well first off, the mixing was pretty bad. You didnt include any background sounds other than you saying "flashback" in order to indicate that there was a flashback. That was pretty funny though. The sound quality was bad and it really did hurt my ears. As for the acting, I think you need to come up with your own original characters and work a bit harder on them rather than just making one based off of something that youve seen online. *metal gear* The story was alright, it could have been done a bit better and built upon more but the idea itself was good. I didnt like the way you use muffins though, you should have perhaps had the guy write a childrens story and cleverly end the story with the word MUFFIN instead of just randomly throwing it in there. The range of all the voices was ok, but It sounded like you just did this all in one take and you didnt try and emphasize a different voice for each character. Try taking a deep breath, and recording the first line as best as you can with a character you developed, three or two times. Then choose the best take and repeat with the other lines. Make sure you sound good! Please get abetter mic. That white noise killed me. -65

Ow! Loud! Very loud! And slightly distorted, perhaps from being too loud! Acting was good, the angry guy was definitely angry, (I can sense a heavy egoraptor influence there) but the supporting characters were quite weak. Not a great range or mixing but it was well acted and fit pretty nicely.

A very loud main character with potential, but a very impractical and uninteresting script. None the less.... FLASHBACK ROFLS!

"honestly =3"

THE FOLLOWING IS ADVICE NOT ABUSE! please take it as honest help, not personal insult!
your diction was quite poor meaning i found it difficult to hear quite what you where saying throughout the duration of the submission. your voices wherent all that distignuishable... one was slightly lower with a more gruff accent, but that was about it.
towards the end it was lazy and pretty boring. like you where just sat there saying whatever came to your head. i think to keep it engaging it requires something amusing or exciting, intriguing or something that makes you think. otherwise its just idol chatter.

to improve practice speaking more clearly, using more voices and creating a story with either unusual characters or unsusual situations. otherwise its just an ordinary scenario....like buying an orange at the grocery store...
HOWEVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You protrayed your characters with an idea of WHO they where. which helped me to relate a little more to them. i enjoyed listening to the main character getting angry. despite it being his only characteristic, it was portrayed well! i didnt really find it funny, but i enjoyed listening to it.

whatever happens this was a good start to becoming a gifted voice actor on newgrounds! good luck in the future and good luck in the competition! =3.

^^^FlashbaAaAaAack over^^^, Painted-Gorilla------>
Wow, I never thought I'd hear someone who cussed more than I did in a submission. Guess I've found my match. Are you a Sailor too? Heh heh heh
Your Boss's flashback voice sounded A LOT like Darth Ghetto Vader.
I got a laugh out of it. Man, your character is so angry. Maybe he should try meditating sometime. Ha! Kidding! Well. . .
Best of luck to you on the contest, Man.
Until they announce the winners. . .

......Take care, be good and EAT MUFFINS.period
