Custom Theater Voiceover Volume 2

[mheadroom]

CONGRATS TO Matt and Jen and their newly born home theater addict!


READ IS COMPLETE!

Here's a sample mp3 238KB (http://www.tinstudio.com/files/sample2.mp3)

Let me know what you think.

I'm going to try and get the CDs done by the end of the weekend.


** OLD NEWS ************************************************************ **

Payments can be made via paypal to htvoiceover@gmail.com

PLEASE INCLUDE YOUR AVS SCREEN NAME IN THE COMMENTS SECTION

If you need to make payments via another souce, drop me a line.

The read will happen on October 12th


Back by popular demand.

We will be doing another round of custom voiceovers for use in your home theater. Here is an example of the narrator we will be using.
Volume 1 Demo (http://max-headroom.com/nar/demo.mp3)

Copies of Volume 1 are still available and you can learn more about it here:
http://www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/showthread.php?t=711484&page=1&pp=50


Same deal as last time.

1. You are allowed to ad your theater name and 30 words of custom lines.

For example:

(theater Name) - The Jedi Theater
(custom words) - Come to the dark side and feast at our imperial snackbar.

2. If you have any lines that you feel other may like, post them and I'll add them to the generics.

Note: We our going to try and make sure nothing from volume 1 is repeated. The exception to the rule will be anything that didn't come out right in volume 1 or if there is a specific request for a different inflection. If you have one of these requests, please send them via email and I will add it to the script.

3. Send an email to htvoiceover@gmail.com with your real name, AVS screen name and a short msg letting me know you want in. If you know your custom lines right away, send them too.

4. Don't pay yet. I will let you know when. The cost will be the same as last time if we reach the 30 person mark, otherwise it may be a bit higher. I will keep the list open until Oct 20th or 30 people, whichever comes first.

5. When the read is complete, you will have the choice of download or having a CD sent via USPS.

6. HAVE FUN WITH THIS. I've received a number of suggestions for the generic stuff that I think we should pursue. One suggestion was for themed lines. Like:

"Welcome to the Slaughter Film Fest. Grab a fist full of popcorn, a chilling beverage and don't forget the barf bag"

Some themes to explore are:
Action
Romance
Sci Fi
Horror
B-Movies
Children's films
Halloween
New years
Specific movies like Star Wars and LOTR
etc.

Like last time, I will filter the script so that we keep within the scheduled narration session.

Let me know if you have any questions and let the fun begin =)

Anyone know Alan's theater name? We should hook him up this time =)

[Iceblade]

Jason,

I'm pretty sure it's just the Gouger Home Theater, since that's what Joe did for Alan's custom 20th Century Fox logo:
http://www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/showthread.php?p=5616696&&#post5616696

Regs,
Jeff

[mheadroom]

Do you know how it's pronounced?

[Iceblade]

Excellent question. I've always pronounced it in my head as "Gouge-ur". Like someone gouged out my eyes. Maybe it's Goo-zhay? Heck, we might have to spoil the surprise like Reaper had to when he had to ask him what his theater room name was. :)

[mheadroom]

I'll be updating tonight when i get home. I think we are already at 15 participants or somethign and a number of great lines coming in.

[Iceblade]

Jason,

How do you want to handle the custom lines? Send it to your gmail or stick it here in the thread?

Regs,
Jeff

[mheadroom]

either is fine

[mheadroom]

Hi all,

One of the members had voiced that they thought the reread of volume 1 lines was unfair to volume 2 participants. I just wanted to let you know, that the cost of the rereads will have no bearing to the cost of the volume 2 read. Both are being quoted separately and the costs of the rereads will be covered by money i have left over from the first read.

I have removed those lines from this thread and posted on the original tread in order to remove any confusion. If anyone who participated in part one needs something fixed, please let me know in that thread.

thanks

-Jason

[Jim J]

some generic ideas

Double Feature

Tonights

[mheadroom]

I know the list is a mess right now but I'll sort it this weekend =)

[fasi22mob]

I know we don't want to duplicate volume one lines on the volume two cd. Does that mean we will have access to the volume one lines in addition to volume 2. I missed out on volume 1 but like some of the generic and a few custom lines.

[mheadroom]

I'm keeping the volumes seperate. This is only fair to those who have already participated in volume 1 and are signed on to participate in volume 2.

[srw1000]

Jason,

Is there a price for the generic Vol. 1 along with custom Vol. 2? Or would they just be considered separate purchases?

Scott

[mheadroom]

keeping them seperate. As I said i think this is only fair.

[MikeRich]

I am having a blast with Vol 1, please sign me up for volume 2!

[mheadroom]

You're in Mike. This set should be just as fun. I think there were a lot of things that were missed in volume 1. That and i have a couple of movie buff freinds who want in and are supposed to be working on some great theme reads for us.

[srw1000]

Sorry, I'm still a little confused. Is the pricing for the generic Volume 1 $27.00?

The reason that I'm asking, is that for people participating in Volume 2, they'll almost have to buy volume 1 for the generic info that won't be repeated in Volume 2. Whereas the people who participated in Volume 1 had a fully usable package.

Scott

[roar]

Pot stirring removed as to not cause Jason any more sleepless nights :)

What ever makes your life easiest is my opnion.

[mheadroom]

** Long Rant Removed **

I'm keeping the volumes seperate. I still think it's a great value even if you have to buy both discs but if you still have issues with my decision you have a couple of options.

1. Don't participate.

2. I'll give you the number of the studio and you can setup your own narration session with Greg.

3. Dean Roddey mentioned that he has a friend who can create a fully produced audio intro for you. He seemed to think the cost would be about $250 but this would include a music bed and sound effects. This may be an option for you.

4. Finally, you could buy Techtalker from Cinemar. TT seems to be a well put together disc with tons of generics.

If anyone has an issues with my decision and would like to be removed, please let me know.

-Jason

[Lumpy69]

I missed out on Volume #1 for the custom reads. I still bought a copy
and LOVE it.

I'm in for the second read to get my customs reads done.

People suck it up and buy a copy of Volume #1 and get in on Volume
# 2 for your custom reads.

It's not THAT EXPENSIVE.

[Robert Clark]

Well, I missed volume one, so I'm in for volume 2!


How about:

Welcome to the Clark Picture Palace!

Now featuring HD-DVD and Blu-ray movies.

I'll try to come up with something clever, assuming this thread doesn't somehow blow up...

[Mark Booth]

Jason,

Please sign me up as a purchaser of Volume 2. I will buy it regardless if I come up with any custom lines or not. I will give some thought to what (new) custom lines I might like (as well as potentional generics) and post them to this thread in a day or two.

Thank you!!

Mark <--- Who's VERY happy to pay for BOTH volumes to get as much voiceover selections as possible

[mheadroom]

After tossing and turning last night I decided to remove my rant and I'm dedicated to making today a good day! Let's start with some new lines:

Summer
Spring
Fall
Winter
Holiday Season
One family's home theater

In a world, where movies reign supreme. One family must fight to entertain an entire audience. This summer John, Jane and a hollywood cast of thousands, star in, the XYZ Theater.

[lawdawg]

We should do some over the top reading like in this trailer. It's awesome.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FfIlGKlaTSI

[mheadroom]

Due to the lack of generics and the large number of participants, I have decided to open this up to more people. As long as we can fit the read in the alotted time, the price will go down even further. As in the first round, I will use my judgment as to when I close the list. If I see a slow down in people joining as we hit 30, I'll keep that as the cutoff.

[mheadroom]

How is everyone using thier intros? I'll start:

I edited mine in soundforge and mixed it with the fox fan fare. I then used that is the @0th Fox Animation from Reaper.

I know, it's doring and everyone is doing it but I still like it. :D

For this volume 2 disc I'm making up a couple of special surprises. Those will be a bit more original in concept.

[Mark Booth]

Jason,

A couple of generics to consider:

"Please enjoy this short cartoon"
"Remember the day when you got a cartoon with your movie? So do we!"
"Our feature presentation will begin immediately following this short cartoon"
"Is proud to present this short cartoon"

"Chocolate"
"Raisinettes"

"Dolby Digital"
(I realize this one can be made up from two different lines on Vol 1 but I was surprised it didn't make it to the disc in this exact form the first time out.)

Mark

[Mark Booth]

Jason,

I just noticed the last line in your first message reads:

"We apologise. We are currently experiancing technical difficulties. Our the movie will resume shortly."

It should either be "Our movie..." or "The movie". Not both! :)

Mark

[fasi22mob]

Genric line:


Established in XXXX

[Dcostanza]

since there is a segment for manufacturers, would you add Klipsch?
Also, the link to the "off-beat trailer" was very good. I'm in for something along those lines.
Mheadroom, nice job on this

Best regards
Don

[Randito3]

BLOCKED!! Your website is blocked by my work!! They obviously dont like you so I'll have to wait until tonight before I can listen to anything from it. If it sounds good you can definitely count me in.


Randy

[mheadroom]

If someone wants to put together a bunch of over the top trailer scripts, we should definitely add them.

I also think we should be adding a bunch of theme stuff.

Keep the lines coming. Just post them in the thread and I'll grab them. Having them in the thread might to inspire others :D

[mheadroom]

Look though the other thread. A number of people near the end posted their intros using this narrator. Maybe the network cops at you office will let you though to them.

[McCall]

what is the cut off date for getting the custom lines to you?

[mheadroom]

I would say Wednesday is the cut-off. I might go a bit longer but the sooner the better.

After i get all the line I then have to get a final quote. then get payments and the the schedule the read.

[hoogs]

My question is......how are you guys using these intros? By that I mean do you burn a seperate disc that has your custom lines? Do you have a HTPC streaming the lines? Just curious.

[DKaps]

Count me in.

"Kaps Family Cinema"

"Heartland Home Theater"

"Brought to you by Dan and Stephanie. "

Thanks.

[ND23]

Maybe we should add the word "dot" after "www" for a seamless beginning to a spoken web address (i.e., "www dot")

Thanks,
ND

[kdos]

Thank you "Mr. Headroom"....I'm in for both discs, I & II

"The Double A Cinema"
"Amanda"
"Anthony"
"The DosSantos Family" (pronounced like the word for Spanish 2, "uno, DOS....")
"Keith and Cathy"
"Yankees fans are welcome to sit outside"
"E-A-G-L-E-S....EAGLES" (each letter sounded out individually, and emphatically, followed by the whole word, Eagles!)
"Go SOX" (pronounced in a Boston-like "SAWX")


Generics: JVC, ONKYO, INFINITY

[mschiff]

Here are my custom lines:

Martin, Nina and David welcome you to the Schiff family theater. Please sit back and enjoy the show.

and here is a generic one:

Sorry we are unavailable to take your call. If you will leave your name, phone number and the time of your call, we will get right back to you.

-- Martin

[MikeFalz]

Sent you an email with my custom lines. Here's some generic suggestions

...proudly presents tonight's feature presentation (deviation of a line from disc1)
Sensurround

This is text from the print ads for SENSURROUND, it's great if you use buttkickers:

Attention! This theater features the startling new multi-dimension of SENSURROUND. please be aware that you will feel as well as see and hear realistic effects such as might be experienced in real life.
The management assumes no responsibility for the physical or emotional reactions of the individual viewer.



Thanks for doing this, again!

Go Cardinals!!! (Already in your list)
Cubs fans are welcome to sit outside.
Welcome to the Freiburg (FRY-burg) theater.
Names: Matt and Jen

Generic: Enjoy the show.

I'm having second thoughts about my ideas for "With xx minutes and xxx seconds to go in the xxx half...." and "The xxx take on the xxx" and "The xxx versus the xxx". Feel free to give those the snip should space become scarce. Besides, we'd really need a full list of all baseball/football/hockey/basketball teams (let alone all the college team names) for it to be really useful. Maybe round 3. ;)

Thanks Jason. I'm really looking forward to putting the custom stuff in this round together with a lot of the more baseline generic stuff in round 1. Should be fun stuff!

[Mark Booth]

My wife has requested this custom line:

"Mark and Cathy are going to bed now so you nice people can go home"

MHeadroom,

I am definately interested in the price for an after-the-fact version 1 download, and depending on that price I may be interested in adding my name to the list for version 2. At the very least I want to say that this was an excelent idea and this forum never ceases to amaze me with the clever ways to make our home theaters even cooler (or geekier, depending on who you ask.)

Thanks,
Brian

[mheadroom]

Do you want

"And now for the Freiburg theater feature presentation."

or

or

"And now, for the Freiburg theater's feature presentation."


"And now, for the Freiburg theater feature presentation. "

That's what's in the video render at the end of my CERT intro from Bitstream Animation (http://www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/showthread.php?t=639709). I'm planning on ripping the CERT intro from the DVD and seeing if I can dub that voiceover onto it at the end.

Thanks for clarifying!

Here's my grand plan:

Putting together the Coke slides (http://www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/showthread.php?t=564456) into a slideshow video with "5 minutes till showtime" and "1 minute till showtime" announcements, followed by either Reaper or Blazer03's 20th century fox render (http://www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/showthread.php?t=715166) with "Welcome to the Freiburg theater" mixed onto the fox fanfare mp3 (or .ac3 file if i can figure out how to edit that!), followed by a new "Previews" slide I'll make to be shown behind a "Coming soon to the Freiburg theater" (if I can manage to splice that together) voiceover, then some trailers, then the Cert intro which finishes with "And now, for the Freiburg theater feature presentation. Enjoy the Show", then of course the movie.

And all this is, of course, given I can find the time to put it all together. We've got our first child due Oct. 7th, and I'm taking some time off from work when he/she comes, so I can't tell whether I will or won't have time to put this together. It would be nice if when people inevitably come over to see the new baby, I could take them down to the basement and show them "MY baby." :)

[frydiggity]

By the way, I love "Please no farting during the feature presentation." That'll have to find its way into the mix as well.

Great stuff.

[Mark Booth]

Another one (count against our custom words if necessary):

"The following previews and trailers are made possible by the use of an Apple Mac home theater PC"

:)

It would be quite an incredible feat if the Astros could make it all the way back. Crossing my fingers for a 1 game playoff with the Cardinal next week. It would be a great game especially since it would be in Houston. :)

Along with the voice overs and some music, I thought it would be cool to add some background sounds like you hear in a theater before a movie starts; like people talking in whispers, seats banging, etc....

I've looked on the net for some of this stuff but really couldn't find anything useful. Anyone have a pointer to something like this?

Hi all. I'll be finalizing the script in the next couple of days.

If you haven't sent payment or made arrangements, please do so now. Tomorrow night I'll be removing the extraneous lines.

The read will happen on Thursday and I'll have the raw files then. This read is longer than the first but I should be able to have the discs ready to ship for next Monday.

A number of you requested downloads of the files. I will put these up as soon as they are ready and I'll be emailing you details.

I'll also be updating the list tomorrow to show who is receiving a CD vs. downloads. If anything needs to be updated, let me know.

Thanks.

-Jason

[mheadroom]

Hi all.

I updated the list. It should be very accurate now. Check to see if I received your payment or have marked correctly if you want to download the files.

No one has come to me with any other changes, so the script is going out to the studio.

Only 2 more days until the read.

Feel free to add me to the download list.

Awesome background music for our intros/slide shows.

Outsider, great find. I would suggest a new thread just for the fact that the discussion may get lost here.

Everyone else,

The read is done. I'm going to start working on breaking out the files and getting everything ready. I shooting for Monday as the ship/post date.

For the time being I posted a sample of todays read. Check the original post.

[outsider142000]

Sample sounds great.

Thanks for all of your time you have put into this project.

Jason:

Please mark me as a downloader. Can't wait!!!

OK, that is just way too cool with the music added. Sign me up for the next round if you have another. PM me if you have the first two available for download.

[mheadroom]

Looks like the CDs won't be going out tomorrow. Sorry

I just finished the Files for the downloaders though. Check you PMs in about a 1/2 hour and you'll find d/l instructions.

I still have a few things left to do:

1. Make and send the CDs
2. Edit the updates for the Volume 1 people
3. Finish the "Something Special" for everyone that i am creating

2 and 3 will be available for download sometime this week.

After you guys play with the tracks, please post some examples of what you did.

We all want to see :D

[mheadroom]

PMs have been sent. If you would like to download the files instead of the CD, let me know and I'll add you to the download list. Otherwise I'm going to start getting the CDs together.

-Jason

[mheadroom]

I forgot to put one file in the archive. It's up there now at the bottom of the page.

Also i have the volume 1 update ready. Anyone who got volume 1, just pm me for the download info. It's < 6 meg.

[ND23]

After you guys play with the tracks, please post some examples of what you did.

Here's what I patched together last night and this morning.

Think of this going with some slides with the logos of the technologies/manufacturers mentioned. So when he says "DTS-ES," a DTS-ES logo will display, then when he says "Dolby Digital EX," the presentation will transition to a Dolby Digital EX logo, and so on.

I'll have to work on the slides and video next, but I really need to get my butt back down in the basement to put my theater back together!

ND

[ND23]

Another clip I patched together, using my custom lines...

Jason, if we get a chance to do corrections (volume 3, maybe?), I'd like a chance to better communicate the pronunciation I wanted for "HomeTheaterrific."

Thanks again for all you've done to drive this effort!

If you have it, try using WinZip to add your .wav file to a .zip file. You'll be allowed to post the .zip file, as long as it is small enough.

Thanks ND23, will try that later today...

[ptrubey]

Hey guys, I just wanted to share what I've done with these voice over files. In addition to a custom patched together voice over for the start of the movie, here's a file that I put together for about 45 minutes before the start of my upcoming Rocky Horror Picture Show movie night.

http://www.trubey.net/001.mp3

I programmed my lighting control system to start a dedicated MP3 player which will play this file at a set time. The lighting system also blasts the lights on and off in sync with the thunder clap at the beginning of the MP3. It then dims the lights and turns on a UV panel while the rest of the clip is played. At the end of the clip, the lights flicker again and go back to normal.

[Lumpy69]

[mheadroom]

If you still haven't recieved your discs, let me know and I'll send out new copies on Saturday.

I'm not sure I was slated to get a disk - I think I said I would download. However I'd really like to have a CD - can you mail me one? Thanks.

[McCall]

So Max,
Is there going to be a volume three? and if so when might that be?

[mheadroom]

Not sure if/when there will be a volume 3. If so I think I'm going to go with a differnet narrator. The studio called me last week and said that becasue we have now done 2 at what they feel is a reduced rate, they won't do it for that cheap again. They want at least double next time.

Currently I'm working on a narration CD for the Home Automation crowd. I'm using a woman with a Brtish accent for that. Wasn't going to do any cutom lines for that though.

I would just watch the forums. I am playing with the idea that maybe we do it every four months or making it an automated thing. I still have to work out some details.

-Jason

[McCall]

That's too bad I really like that narrator. Probably could get twice as many people. Oh well that is sad.

[mheadroom]

I think it would really come down to what the participants had to say. If everyone was willing to pay the price then fine.

The alternate narrator, Bob, is just as good if not better than the current narrator, Greg, and his prices are very good. So good that I could get Bob to read volumes 1, 2 and 3 for the same that Greg is going to charge for just Volume 3.

Here's a sample read he gave me from volume 1

I think it would really come down to what the participants had to say. If everyone was willing to pay the price then fine.

The alternate narrator, Bob, is just as good if not better than the current narrator, Greg, and his prices are very good. So good that I could get Bob to read volumes 1, 2 and 3 for the same that Greg is going to charge for just Volume 3.

Here's a sample read he gave me from volume 1

Bob S. Sample Read (http://www.max-headroom.com/nar/BobS.mp3)

I'm in for another read, regardless of whom you use.

Thanks Jason for your work on this...just too cool!! :D

[McCall]

Well prefer Greg but I would take what I can get. So if you do a volume three I am in for it.

[davy2]

Count me in for Vol3, Bob S sounds good, too!

[Iceblade]

Haven't seen my here yet, Jason. Let me check the mail when I get home tonight and I'll let you know if it is still MIA.

Thanks,
Jeff


If you still haven't recieved your discs, let me know and I'll send out new copies on Saturday.

[jspielmann]

Please count me in on #3 if it goes through..

My downloaded files are not working - getting unexpected end of archive errors. Can I please get a CD.

[Iceblade]

Got it last night! Thanks, Jason. I haven't had a chance to play around with, but should able to monkey with it next week.

Thanks again,
Jeff

PAP,

Make sure you are using WinRAR 3. The PAR files are there so you can recover from just such an error. Just run them through QuickPar and it will repair the files.

Try that and if you are still having problems drop me an email. I haven't been on the board much this week due to work issues so email would be best right now.

Still getting errors even after fixing archive files:

! rebuilt.HTVO_vol_2.part02.rar: Unexpected end of archive
! rebuilt.HTVO_vol_2.part04.rar: Unexpected end of archive
! rebuilt.HTVO_vol_2.part05.rar: Unexpected end of archive

Will send email/PM.

Jason -

Got mine today!

Thanks a MILLION!

Very strange. Never had a problem with RAR and PAR. Quick Par should have solved any problem you had.

Drop me a line and I'll send a CD

I thought maybe all of you "voiceover" people might get a kick out of this. I wish I could find it in a better resolution. It's pretty funny:

That was just TOOOO Much. I love it.

[MaximAvs]

I'd be interested in a Volume 3, and/or a re-read with Bob!

[ammer]

Sign me up as well.

Anyone else having trouble with the files with music? Mine has static, and crashes the audio card...

Wonder if it's too late for the CD?

[mheadroom]

The CD is a data CD so that won't change anything as far as the files go.

Only one person said anything about static in the files but that in Volume 1 I belive. In the end it was their software that didn't support 48k wavs. As soon as they tried another app it was fine.

Check the settings on your soundcard and player. The recordings are made at 48Khz. If you play them back at 44.1, you get static and bad sounds.

Just curious if the Music Bed clips are available WITHOUT the 'And Now our Feature....'????

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

[mheadroom]

I really can't because of licensing issues.

[Lumpy69]

I really can't because of licensing issues.

I completely understand.

I was turned onto this thread by a user on the CQC thread. I'm wondering if I can buy a copy of 1 & 2 & get in on 3. If so, let me know ho much & I'll send the money via paypal.

Thanks,

Greg Hodges

[mheadroom]

In case anyone was wondering, I'm going to be starting the sign up for volume 3 sometime in the next week or two. I think we have enough requests to push forward.

[jspielmann]

I'm in on this one.

Looking forward to it!

[mheadroom]

Here we go. Volume 3 begins.

[mheadroom]

In case anyone is interested, we are currently having Bob read volume 3 as well as volumes 1 & 2. This is because Greg's price has climbed to an outragous rate. Going forward I will be using Bob for these reads.

I know some of you were interested in having your reads done by Bob. Copies of the new read (vol 1-3) are available to anyone participating in volume 3.
