How To / Tips

• Can't pay you because nobody's paying me, sorry. You'll be credited in the episode, and since it's freely licensed you can show that to people.
• You'll be recording independently, whenever you have the time.
• If unsure of a pronunciation, we'll generally go with the first youtube result for 'pronounce [word/name] american english' but feel free to ask.
• You can record with your phone's sound recorder app or any other microphone you have available. No need for high quality equipment.
• Try to position your phone/mic so that your breath won't directly hit in the mic (air hitting the mic tends to cause line-obscuring noise).
• I can eliminate steady noise (like a fan) later with a noise reduction pass, but if there are people talking in the background or audible traffic that could be a problem.
• Be sure to remember and be able to duplicate the environment -- how far you are from the mic on which side, background noise etc -- so that you'll be able to make retakes sound the same.
• Record in one continuous take, and I'll edit out the bad parts (when I record 20 minutes of my own voice acting, I end up with 10 minutes or less of usable material -- that's normal). If you don't think you got the line quite right, repeat it until you like it before continuning to the next line. Following this process, it shouldn't take more than 15 minutes to do all your recording.
• Leave long pauses wherever you like: it's easy for me to edit out a pause, whereas I can't edit a pause into a spot that doesn't have one. When you mess up a line, repeat from your last significant pause. With a long tongue-twister sentence, it can be a good idea to leave a long pause at a comma so that you can do the sentence a piece at a time and messing up the end won't make you restart from the beginning of the sentence.
• Start any time, don't wait for word from me. When you're done, email the recording to knierim@gmail.com in any compressed format (128kbps mp3 suggested but doesn't really matter) -- preferably all in one file.
• If it'll take you longer than a week or two for a first take, please let me know.
• I may ask for retakes later, possibly much later when I've received everyone's lines and had a chance to hear how they mesh.
