Voicing the Voiceless

My guess is it's 'cause of being a Memorial Day weekend...a family time 3-day weekend.

 

Zorn's going to have to recruit more help from some of his local buddies. Me, being a somewhat distant buddy, can't always be counted on. Lots of reasons why; none of them really interesting. End result the same: no new voices. Curufin came home this weekend & we spent the time as the Kap'n suggests. He needs new lodgings before the next phase of edu-ma-cation begins in August. Drove out 2 tanks of gas looking, but we've got a line on something groovy. The pic is 10 minutes from it. It'll be 2 hours from me, 1.5 from Zorn, and probably reeeeeaaallly cut down on us doing many more voices.

 

Not having the voices available is certainly slowing the project. I need Curufin for at least one brief moment to make one more line of script from Ranos. I can certainly do some more voices myself but I kept holding for my buds to come play...so to speak.

I have had fair success in lining up some spare talent. I hope to get the new folk in the chair after wednesday of this week.

 

I'm trying to work out the details of a trip over there, soon. Curufin's got a message about Davl; I'm still willing to do somebody (I'd like to be the Balor if it's needed as well). The devil...or is that demon?...is in the details.

And you know I can do the Balor...

PS. Zorn... see that surf? It's perfect for y'alls first 'Yakking experience. Hook up the ladies with some floatation & we're all set. Curufin should be on that island in mid August.

 

Valden's wife Paida....How do I pronounce Paida?

 

Paida is phonetically pronounced "PAY-DUH".

[EDIT] Please note the following.

1. How do you pronounce PAID ?
* It is not pronounced "pie-ee-d".

2. How do you pronounce AIDA [ = Abstract Interfaces for Data] ?
* It is not pronounced "ie-ee-da".

Say the word paid and add pronouncing the letter 'a' after it.

 

I'm pretty sure she introduces herself as "Pie-ee-da"

 

OMG...

Pie-eedah?:icon_chuc Pie-eetah?

THAT explains a lot...especially why you have to knock her ass out and/or use a spell to get her to leave the Temple...

 

Blue fixed the little red wagon of "pay-duh"; now she works in Co8 5 MOD.

 

That's exactly how it should sound gaear. Great. Good job.

Set Windows Media Player to play > repeat and listen to it 10 times
pay-da = pay-duh; paida = payda

[EDIT] All I was saying is the 'i' after the 'a' makes it a long 'a', Pai = Pay. The 'i' is not a long 'e' and the 'i', itself, is silent.

 

Well...thank the gods THAT'S cleared up. I thought it she was in need of a job in the snake pit!
