Looking For a British Voice Actor

shiftey · Post by **shiftey** » Sat Nov 01, 2008 5:27 pm

If you have a professional or prosumer recording setup and and an interesting, comical, and aggressive British accent I need you for my map!!!

I'm in need of a voice actor that sounds like Cpt. Price from the Call of Duty series or that mercenary from Rambo. You will need a decent microphone and recording setup. Decent meaning better than your gaming headset mic and windows audio recorder.

Personally I use audacity, Sony Soundforge, and a prosumer boom mic. I will do all noise cancellation and audio enhancement so I only need you to record your voice. If you're interested please send an audio sample to kornsoadhts@gmail.com. Please don't send anything that sounds like shit. I'll feel bad telling you it's not good enough.

I originally planned on doing all the voice acting myself but I can't get my voice to sound British. It sounds Australian, and having Steve Irwin in my map just won't fit.

EDIT: Also (because I know half the people on this forum are German), if you do a really good German scientist voice send me a sample if you want! Preferably an insecure, nervous voice, but if you have a better character voice go ahead and send it anyway.

I wish you good luck sir!
Even though I am British my accent isn't that strong. And I haven't seen a lot of British players recently...

British, no mic whatsoever.

Heavy accent, I'm told I'm as British as they come.

And Ny, sorry but so are you...

I know some british people from Dystopia.. but I doubt they have a decent microphone.

This isn't going as good as I thought it would. I thought I'd have a shopping cart filled with crumpet eaters by now.

I am British, and I have a microphone. If you hear my voice you ca instantly tell im British, but I dont have the stereotypical accent they have in London (lots and lots of swearing.) I'm from Birmingham but I dont have the brummie accent (thank gawd, it was voted to be the most annoying in the world). My accent is basically just british in general.

Cool. I'm not really working on anything right now that I would need a voice actor for, but eventually (sometime this year) I'll be finishing up the map I needed a british voice actor for. So just check this thread every once and a while if you're still interested.

Thanks for posting.
