I'm hooked http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vfUPTXYuGEo

Are you using a voice actor or is that you?


That's me. Just me, sitting in my room with a microphone in front of my computer. Director, Actor, Animator, everything.
Every now and then, I'll tell myself that I should try reading the line a different way, because the emotion just isn't coming across. Then I'll yell back that I'm too famous to be doing this crappy show and I storm off to my trailer.

One of our regular members joactor is a professional voice artist.


yeah... it's *my* job to storm off to the trailer!

PS: what kind of voice/s do you do?

Terrific reel, terrific voice.
See, what you really need to do is fight hard to play the voice of God--just for the brutal irony. That, and your voice would sound great booming down from the clouds.

Great opinions, honestly, touch wood.

Yay! I'm sure you could have made "the god" if all those players hadn't killed you.

I found  the video hectoring, unsubtle, unfunny and devoid of any spark of imagination or originality.
Some ideas are so stupid only an intellectual could believe them (Orwell).

Don't hold back in an attempt to be kind.  Tell us how you really feel.  ;D

Or maybe something constructive beyond " I think it sucks"?
"We've thought of life by analogy with a journey, with pilgrimage which had a serious purpose at the end, and the THING was to get to that end; success, or whatever it is, or maybe heaven after you're dead. But, we missed the point the whole way along; It was a musical thing and you were supposed to sing, or dance, while the music was being played.

If someone puts their work out for critique, then I always pay them the compliment of  candour. Americans tend to be nicer and more effusive in these matters. possibly counting on karma kicking in.

So why not ask those who  describe  it
as fantastic or awesome to elaborate.?
