We need some sound effects for tomorrow's Recording, and we need to improvise some more lines to add into the script. I will possibly have to do two voices if Clare doesn't show up, and the two voices need to be different!
04/01/2010
Just before Christmas in the last week of term, we completed the script and we finished the recording, I ended up doing two voices and we used a Glockenspiel as a kind of jingle for an announcement to be made inside the Shopping Centre. If we want to, we now have the option to do a second recording and redo everything such as voices, sound effects, dialogue if we want to.
I thought that the recording went quite well, although it took a few takes to actually pull off because of some laughter, however I thought that the voice acting was strong, but there wasn't a lot of music throughout the play, only a Xylophone used as a brief jingle. This time it would be good to have some music to set the scene as a sort of introduction and maybe have some at the end to close out the play. It would also make it more interesting and it would be different with music added in.
I play a character called Bobby who is quite down to earth and easy to talk to and he is exactly like this in the scene. He was born in London, is obviously a male, quite tall, dark hair, and has quite smart clothing. He is quite big and admits he needs to lose weight, he is quite well educated, he received quite good Gcse's and is currently training in a business firm in London.
He has a Girlfriend, and in the future he hopes to get married, and hopes to do well in his job, earn decent money and be able to support his Family.
I also voice another character, this is just an announcement voice inside the Shopping centre, telling the Shoppers about a special surprise, it is just an American accent.
