Reviews for "...Is This Thing On?"

Sextifabulicious!

You sir are one talented man! I really love the twist on those lines I did! Especially the way you slowed down the "strange eons" line... much more sinister. I may have to do a re-read with that line slowed down now! Joker Laugh even though recorded on accident was enough to give me a fit of nostalgia. Please Please keep up the good work! I always look forward to seeing your submissions as I lurk the audio portal.

Gianni responds:

Hah, thank you very much! I think your version of those lines is much better, but I just had to try it. Plus I linked folks to it so anyone who listens to me can go have a listen for themselves.

Eventually one of the projects I'm in will be finished up so you can have something more proper to listen to.

Thanks a bunch for the supportive words!

Steve Blum with a twist

Wow! I agree that you definately sound like Steve Blum in some of your samples. Anyone doing a Cowboy Bebop (or x-men - Wolverine) flash they should TOTALLY use you!!!! I also like how you can change up your voice. I try, but it's blatently obvious that it's the same voice. Very versatile.

How do you come up with your sample script to do this? I was thinking of posting myself, but I'm a novice and not sure how to determine the best voice sampling.

Gianni responds:

Vocal range isn't really something I've quite mastered, don't give me too many points on that. A lot of the folks have ridiculous vocal range in the sense that not only can they sound like drastically different characters, but they can also sound like SLIGHTLY different characters, and still not sound like the same person voicing it. If that makes sense.

As far as script goes, well, some lines are taken or inspired by audition lines I've had, but most I just kinda wrote off the top of my head. Don't worry too much about the script though, it's my understanding that most VAs just make up cheesy lines to demonstrate their voice. Really just, depending on what type of voice you're doing, think of generic things that kind of voice would say.

Heroic voice: "No! I won't let you get away with this! Your vile plan has come far enough!"
Evil voice: "Hah, what a foolish waste of time you've been for me. You stopped being entertaining long ago... It's time for me to end you."

Not those lines specifically, but you get the idea. Don't feel a pressure to be some sort of creative genius with the writing, demos barely matter anyway.

Thank you so much for your compliment! It's an honor to have so many people relate me to such a legendary voice actor, I know I'm not quite in his league yet but even the concept of it is enough to warm my day.

I'll be looking forward to hearing your audio piece when it's finally up!

With Strange Eons...

"That is not dead, which can eternal lie... and with Strange Eons... even death may die." ~Nox Arcana- The Awakening. A favorite of mine.

Gianni responds:

Good to know where it came from! I loved the line, like I said in the description I basically just stole it from mrbipolar's upload, and he said he got the line from some project he was involved with. You should go check his out because he does it way better.

Thanks for the review!

Awesome

Question if your really voice like that?Anyways awesome voice acting.

Gianni responds:

I think your question was "is your voice really like that", and by that question, I think you're asking if I used special effects or anything in this. To answer your question, that's just my voice with no special effects or anything.

Thank you very much! Glad you like it!

I respect the depth that you're voice has. . . You could do a wicked Duke Nukem, and at moments, I thought I was listening to Steve Blum's voice demos. Nice work.
