Requesting some voice talent...

[Zanto1050]

Resource Type: Audio Clips

Maker Format: RPG Maker MV

Description:
I'm making a short game for my group at a mental help program and I need some voice clips. I've read from several sources that voice acting isn't practical in RPG Maker but in my case it's kinda needed. There are some members that have trouble reading or can't. With most dialogue in the game having an associated voice clip for it my group can better understand the story and follow along easier.

The game is a horror game I'm planning on presenting for Halloween. It's difficult to make a game on this engine very scary so instead I'm going for a creepy, unsettling feeling. I can explain the characters if anyone decides to pick this up and help me out.

I'll provide any resources that I need to. I know I'll at least need to provide a dialogue dump or the game itself so the actors will know what to record. I can share my source files or an exe through Google Drive, preferably an exe.

I don't plan to make this project commercial and I can't pay for VA services. I understand if this can't be fulfilled.

Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.

How many voice clips are you looking for? If it's just a few, then it's fine, but if you need a lot, this should be posted in Project Recruitment.

There will be 5 characters total. 2 of them have very little dialogue. One only has dialogue at the end but it's lengthy. Another has a bit of a monologue at 2 parts. The last one is the main character and she speaks quite a bit as well.

Overall, it's quite a bit of speaking but only for a few characters. My games are very much story driven and contain a lot of speech. So far I have 2 major cutscenes made and I'm gonna have another at the end with a short one right before it.

I think I should add in that this game won't be very long for now. I'm presenting it in 1 month and I'm still working on chapter 2. There's no need for long term help at the present time.

My microphone is not good for voice acting but i can make creepy unsettling creature sounds.

@Zanto1050 It sounds like you need voice acting for the whole game, and that would be too much for a single resource request (even if the game is pretty short) and you should make a recruitment thread like slimmmeiske2 suggested. If you make that thread, make sure to include details on how you want each character to sound like, since it'd be easier for people to judge if they can help or not. I've got a mic that's been gathering dust lately, but without knowing what voices you need it would be hard to say if I'd be helpful.

@yamakoku Thanks for your input but I'm good for creepy sounds for now.
@hiddenone I'll consider it. But like I said, I'm not going to be working on this long term. If it'll help me find some VAs before my deadline I'll give it a shot.

@Zanto1050 It's not about the project being long term or not, it's about how much you're asking for. A couple voice lines would be fine for a resource request, but anything larger really belongs in Project Recruitment.

Oh, ok. I understand now, thanks. I'll post over there tomorrow because a new game is about to release. Thanks for your help.

Can anyone tell me how to close a thread? I'm gonna bring this topic to the other section and I don't see the need in leaving this thread open.

Only moderators can close a thread. If you want something closed, just report your first post and ask for it to be closed. But since, I'm here now, I'll go ahead and lock this.

Closing.
