【DONE!】Fairytale of Light and Darkness VA【Thank you all!】

by Catalyst Mon Oct 05, 2015 9:10 pm

God bless it's all done! T^T
Thank you again for all your help! For those who still haven't claimed your IOUs yet don't forget to poke me! =)

P.S. I'll do another song in this series, so I'll probably appear again to snatch voice actors =u=

===============================================

Hey! It's Catalyst here!
I'm currently doing a cover of Sound Horizon's "Fairytale of Light and Darkness", for those who're not familiar with it, this is the opening song for their story album "Marchen", which sets the story for a 12-song musical.
Anyhow, this song features a TONS of VA (total of 10 characters plus a German narrator), but because I suck at VA so much, I'm really hoping that someone will be able to lend me a hand!
Now that I realize it's a little unfair to ask for people to VA for my own cover, that's why I'm willing to offer something else in return for your time (Refer below)! But first, here's a little more info for you to decide if you'd like to lend little ol'me some help ;u;

Click here for song:

This is the only original version available on YT (and yes, it's live), though, you can click here for CD version. And I am going to use a fanmade instrumental for this cover, so no copyright shall be worried.

Click for instrumental:

For the VA roles, as mentioned above there will be 10 characters in total, plus a Germany narrator. In the original there are 7 males and 4 females, but honestly I don't really care about gender, so as long as you could do a suitable voice, you can choose any characters you wish.
The role list is as below:

Narrator (need to speak in German) [Any voice type]
Little sister - A random young girl (Minor role) [Cute girl voice]
Little brother - A random young boy (Minor role) [Shota-ish voice]
Big brother - Yet another random young boy (Minor role) [Shota-ish voice]
Young Mer - Child version of the main guy [Shota voice]
Young Elizabeth - Child version of the main guy's childhood friend [Cute girl voice]
Mer - Main guy. Reincarnation version of Young Mer [Mid-low male voice]
Elise - Reincarnation version of Elizabeth's doll [High pitched cute voice]
Witch hunter1 - Guy who killed Mer [Any voice type]
Witch hunter2 - Guy who killed Mer [Any voice type]
Therese - Mer's mother [Mature female voice]

For the script, please poke this link.

Recruitment and Compensation

1. You can choose any role regardless of gender as long as you can do a suitable voice for them

2. You can choose more than 1 role, cuz I doubt I could find all 11 ppl anyways ;u;

3. Only requirement is to have a clear mic, and can hand in lines on time (However please do look at the script and listen to the original before choosing a role, as some of them do scream lol)

4. I will offer one of the followings in return for your help! (Sorry it's not much!):

1. Mixing - 1~4 singers (example1 | example2)
2. One chibi art (example1 | example2)
3. I dunno if anyone will choose this but if you'd like I could do a duet/collab/ or even fill in for chorus lines that needed a singer!

Lastly, I have a sample snippet of my cover to show you what I've got atm; obviously I'm no expert but I'll tried my best to make this as close to the original as possible!

Anyhow, I'd really really appreciate any help, and thank you for reading this long post!

@Catalyst ahaha you don't need to throw your tears xD I'm not much of a voice actor in the first place (English could use some variation and the Japanese enunciation gets screwed up sometimes...) so...yeah!

I will definitely practice Eliz, Elise, and Therese (you decide which suits my voice better xD) BUT YOU SOUND SO WONDERFUL THAT IT'D BE AN HONOR TO TAKE PARRRRT. I have sold my soul LOL. and I really want to work on another project with you---and since you also really like HitoshizukuxYamaP I want another song by them hehe. I'm also torn with your other services because you're so great at those too...

**btw...Nokie, Eclipse---your voices are amazing *^*

Hey Catalyst. This seems like a cool (and large) undertaking, trying to get 10+ different voices together. Let me audition for a part. It'd be great to participate in one of your projects again.

What would you like me to do for you in return? Mixing or animation. Like Shinra, if you're okay with giving out an IOU, that'd be the best.

Lol that was only once...also, the recorded versions shall come after dinner tonight--hopefully my room mate being in the room won't make my pitch too high for Therese's part (but it should work for Young Elizabeth or Elise's part--just maybe extra nervous though...) I'll play around with pitch before I submit. I can reach Therese's low range--though I may have to hide out in the music room where it's echo-ey because there's no way I'm going to have a low voice with another presence in the room. On another note, the only line I can't quite hear at all is Therese's: Buta no yoo ni wameku na! Migurushii!

So I apologize if the timing/enunciation for that is off. All I know is that it should be said with contempt. Another side note: "nido to doutai no ue ni kunrin dekinu mono to omoe!" will slightly be off time towards the italicized parts since I can barely hear the timing for that as well.

Would Amayumerou be alright with you? (The high range will kill me, but I've been wanting to do it with someone for so long!!)

Thanks a lot!

Thank you so much Riyumi!! I'm sure you'll sound awesome as Therese! Can't wait for your lines! >U<
Yup, timing being a bit off is totally fine! I couldn't hear clearly at some parts as well so it's okay!

Uwahhh I love Amayumerou!! I've been wanting to do this song for a long time too! *^* Do you want to be Rin or Miku? I could mix too if you don't mind!

I'm definitely gonna use your lines! >U<

And yup, mixing solo or duet is fine for me! I'll add you on skype for that!

Btw, your cover sounds good so far and ganbatte!!

Name: Riyumi
Role(s) wanted: Therese and/or Elise (choose which fits xD)
Example of your voice: Therese Elise
What would you like me to do for you in return? : Could you mix Reizu/my duet of My Pace? (If this is too much to ask after Amayumerou--I totally understand! I don't want to overflow you with tasks; but for Ama--I believe Rin doesn't go as high as Miku so if that's okay with you--I'd like Rin's part)
Best way(s) to reach you: PM or skype

**I am not satisfied with Therese/Elise's takes. I was so nervous with my room mate behind me. The laughs for Elise sounds forced and I can go higher/cutesy-er (?) if I can just find time alone. But I promised I'd have lines tonight so here are the sample! Also, the okaerinasa--- should be softer sounding towards Meru and the "buta no yoo ni" line could be so so so so much better. Same with the kisama no sono minukui atama. Death could have also been more dramatic with the uuuugh. So much more feels could have been transmitted >:U

So yeah. These are just samples of how my voice would sound for these parts. I shall go hide in a corner from embarrassment now...

They're too awesome, Riyumi!! >U< I totally loved them and I have no problem using them in the final mix! *^* (Although if you'd like to make changes I'm fine with that too!)
So if you don't mind I will be putting you down for both, is it okay?

Yup! I'm more than happy to mix for you! (I enjoy mixing so it's all good <33) Also I don't mind being Miku!
