Lol, could you get the same affect by sticking your head in an actual empty waste paper bin, or even an empty tin to muffle your words.

Hi Ben,
You don't have to try all the character, just the ones you like.
I hope that I get enough samples to have different people become each one.
Your mike could be good for Bins as his voice is supposed to sound like coming from a vacuum cleaner.

I'd love to do this, but unfortunately I had my voice rejected for swamp as
far as I know, so it can't be good enough - the mike I mean. xd

Subject: [Audyssey] Voices needed for the Sarah game.

Hi Folks.
Some people have complained about the flat and dead voices of the ghosts in
my Sarah game.
I thought it was appropriate to use synthesized voices but who am I to argue

with the public?
I've added a bunch of real humans talking in the game but I have a need for
voices for,
The goblin, Peeves, Nearless Headless Nick, the Fat Friar, Moaning Myrtle,
the fat lady, and Dobby.

You need to record each phrase 2 times. This is for randomize sakes. Upon
playing a voice in my game, it will randomize all the phrases to make it
feel a bit more natural.
For example:
Very important! Please make sure you get the best out of your microphone,
and environment. Be in a quiet as possible room, and remove anything that
might make your microphone sound bad. This is serious! Otherwise, your voice

might need to be rejected.
Rejection is no problem, you can always try again. Just understand that I
want to have the best possible quality in the game, and this includes
voices!
Please be as lively as possible while recording. And if it may involve
screaming, so be it.  Don't feel bad, the result will make it worthwhile!
Try to emote everything as good as you can.
Accents are absolutely no problem. Talk in your normal accent, just like you

normally would.
Results can be sent via attached Mail to p...@pcsgames.net and I'll get back

to you.
Please send me the whole recording session in one mp3 file. This being you
start recording, begin acting, then stop. Try not to stop after each
recording. Don't worry, no one will ever hear your outtakes, and I won't
judge you either.  This just makes it much easier for me.
Remember your microphone position, the room you were in, and the recording
settings in case I need more recordings from you.
Since most of the ghosts and creatures are all from the UK, To make sure you

have a good enough accent, I'll need you to say a few test phrases.



Moaning Myrtle:
A high pitched teenage female voice interrupted by sobs and cries.
My name is Myrtle. I do have feelings, you know. Even if I'm dead.

Stop it. You're making fun of me.

I've never come out to speak to anyone before. Well never for a girl.



Dobby the house elf:
His voice was high, a teeny, quivering squeak.

I'm "Dobby, Miss. Just Dobby. Dobby the house-elf, bound to serve one house
and one family forever.

Begging your pardon, miss, Dobby has  a helpful mirror, for you, Anytime,
Miss, just say Dobby help, and Dobby will try. But Dobby is wanting paying
for his work, miss.

Dobby heard tell of it from the other house-elves when he came to Hogwarts, Miss if you want hiding, The ghosts can't find you in the broom cupboard.

Binns:
drones like an old vacuum cleaner
voice dry, reedy, and wheezy; tends to drone on and on
often cleared his throat with a small noise like chalk snapping

I am Professor Binns. My subject is History. I deal with facts, not myths
and legends

It is such a very sensational, even ludicrous tale.

it was an age when we were feared by common people. and suffered much
persecution.

It is believed to be some sort of monster, but I tell you, the thing does
not exist.

Peeves:
often makes A loud, rude sound, like the air being let out  of a balloon,
or a pop sound.
makes rude noises, an evil  cackle and sometimes screeches, "

I'm Peeves, run for your lives!

GOT YOUR CONK!"

Who's there? I Know you're there, even if I can't see you.

Wandering around at midnight, Tut, tut,  tut.

Ah ha! Naughty, naughty, you'll get caughty."

Nearless Headless Nick:
In a friendly helpful tone.
I would prefer you to call me Sir Nick.

Anything I can do?"

"Hello, hello, Enjoying yourself?

You'd better get out of here.

Fat Lady:
Password?

Who's there?

Are you going to give me the password, or will I have to stay
awake all night?

goblin:
In a low pitched Bulgarian accent.
My name, Griphook

You have some gold, Miss?

Eye vill take, your gold.
