Do you have a funny voice? Thread

I almost desperately need a voice actor.
My singleplayer mod, Half-Life: Overlord, is under heavy production but I only intend to announce it to the public once I get a voice actor and once I pump out some map screenshots. If you can impersonate or have a scientist-like voice, please help me out. Here's the guy you have to make voice overs for:

Be warned though. You'll have to do many voice overs... everything from yelling in fear, to saying "Ok, I'll follow you!" to long speeches related to the story.

You'll get credited for all you work, on the website, the end credits, text file, everywhere I can fit your name.

For more information head over to my mod's profile: Moddb.com
Or visit my website:
Moddb.com

I hope I've interested somebody, and if you are either reply with a sample or some qualifications, or better yet, email me!

What do you want me to say as an audition tape.

"Freeman, they're coming for you, you must go through this portal...it isn't ready yet but it will be, however, it's risky because we don't know where it leads to, but we're certain it's somewhere on Earth."

and

"Damn asthma... wait Gordon!"

Hope to hear from you

Shit, your voice is perfect, lol, you got that accent and everything... except you need some expression in your voice... if you can do that... I'll give you all the lines you need to say along with what to save them as. Can you do that?

If you have a hard time acting here's a few tips:

+ Don't read your lines, memorise them... even if the line doesn't turn out exactly the same, you won't slip on words or stutter
+ Don't act like you're acting... pretend like this is something you're actually saying to somebody... the way I do it, is I pretend I'm talking on the phone
+ Sit up when you're talking... works for me
+ Stay back from the mic and talk out loud so you don't hear breathing...
+ Take a deep breath before you talk for a length

This isn't directed to you only azz, I think you did a bang up job (besides the no expression ), but incase you dont want the part these tips can help other people out that do want it, even yourself.

Give me some more lines to say

I emailed all the lines to azz0r@wuggawoo.co.uk

good good.

My voice is alittle quiet and flat because I was keeping my voice down, Ill speak up next time, I want todo some now but my niece is sleeping in the next room, so tomorow afternoon Ill get cracking.

Sweet

nifteh... azzy got a british accent, wheeee

If you want an ALL AMERICAN accent (and probably a little bit Finnish), see my thread "Can you hear me now?". I've done plenty of voice acting, not in other's mods though

very posh azz0r

my ascent is more northern, yet every other day i accidently say a word that sound like im a hilbilly.

well you cant jus say that and give no demo...comon boys.

I think you missed a thread, particularily "Can you hear me now?"

I saw it..skipt it...

IT WAS MY VOICE

Was it beautiful?

Three samples.

I will quote something for you, but I don't have a funny voice. I'm just bored.

I could try, but don't except an entirely serious voice. Also I won't swear or anything

I would. I would just say "fahh" then cut a piece out of me saying "duck"

Hmm, maybe I should become a voiceactor.
Im pretty good I think, but Im a little shy too.
I'll just wait until Im home alone before I start recording some.
Find me a role and I'll try.

azz0r i remember hearing that someone cant remember tho =\ LoL
