Hey!

I'm somewhat of a new member to the site and the forum, but I've been a DF fan since Jan. 30th (my birthday).

I wanted to say that I liked the podcast -- someone I know runs an online radio show that usually lasts for hours, so I'm used to listening for a while. Very brief, got the news across.

You mentioned that the copyright was Fred Hicks and Mr. Butcher himself? I was going to ask why not do some radio plays with the DF characters, but if that's a legal no-no, I can see why not. It's a shame, really, because radio plays would be interesting to listen to.

(I thought "Princeps" was a "k" sound for the "c"? I'm guessing that Mr. Butcher is pulling from Roman history for the Codex Alera, so the term was familiar from my Civ classes, and the letter "c" tended to be pronounced with a hard "k". But! Mr. Butcher may pronounce it another way, and I'll be very quiet now.)

And now that I've rambled, I've got to head to work. Hopefully, I'll remember to check back here...

Great podcast Priscellie.  I hope Fred does not stiff you on the pizza.

*laughs*  It takes me about twice as long to record the podcast as the edited podcast ends up being.  Some lines I misspeak or generally have to say over, or I burst out laughing, or whatever. Cheesy  I was terrified that I was running at 25-30 minutes, which is why I kept apologizing for the episode being so long.  When I edited it down and saw that it was only 12 minutes, I felt like something of a moron. 

Anyway, thanks for the input!  Over the next episodes, I'll try to find the pace that folks find most agreeable--somewhere between "James Earl Jones" and "Auctioneer." Cheesy

You did an awesome job reading the Backup blurb. You should look into a career of reading audios and I'm pretty spoiled after listening to James Marsters.

BTW as per another podcast, did you ever watch Farscape?  There is an awful lot of times Harry Dresdan reminds me of John Crichton.

Despite repeatedly being told so. Wink

She was using me as a sounding board on the recording, and there were very few cuts and no re-recordings suggested.

I used to work in radio (RTVF degree). And by work, I been "intern." But anyways, she very much reminds me of a certain voice talent that was very successful for years (you most likely remember her as the female half of the couple on the country crock "hands" commercials), and that's a high compliment.

How DOES one get started in voiceovers / voice acting, anyway? Friends keep yelling at me that I should do something like that, and I have no idea where or how to begin.

Like anything else, it's often in who you know. And how they see you.

For instance, Pris could do voiceovers at work quite easily....but they don't use her for anything but temp tracks. (Now, that MIGHT be due to cust expectations, and not her bosses. Or union contracts. Or stuff.)
