Apologies for the delayed update. I was supposed to do one at the end of last week.

So it's the 9th week of work (bloody hell) on the latest video. And it's so nearly complete. Frustratingly so. It's really just a handful of things left to do, but they're naturally the most complicated parts. Requiring art-assets/voice work that I cannot produce on my own. I plan to focus on trying to get these this week in order to try and have the video for you by the weekend. Thank you for being so patient with me and sorry its taking so damn long.

The full run-time is about 25 minutes, with about 23:40 seconds done and dusted. The remaining bits consist of mostly audio tweaking or an outro that I'm still trying to work out/

Do you remember me mentioning that intro sequence? The one with the spoof news reel from a fictional news organisation talking about the crisis on Altis?

Well I'm currently working on its ending equivalent, which shows the aftermath of the events in the video. A process that should only take a couple of days and I'm already quite far through with. Just need to tweak the script to make it sound convincing.

However, I've still had trouble finding a suitable specific voice actor (other Youtubers never seem to respond, its weird). Therefore what I might try is the following:

I'm going to try tweaking the the footage to make it look like four different news stations talking about the crisis. And then ask if there are any volunteers among you willing to give a line reading a shot? (don't worry if you've already volunteered in the last post, I'll go back). Basically putting on your best newsreader impression, sending me a recording of the spoken lines, which I can chop up and edit onto the already edited visuals.

Then what I can do is edit the footage to make it look like different journalists from different networks. Preferably three males and one female. Please bear with me here, let me get a final script and see how it looks. And then I'll make a fresh post tomorrow with the details for those wanting to try it out. Could be a laugh :)

As for right now, I'll continue trying to put the final pieces together as best as I can. For various QA renders each evening in order to spot all of the errors. Will try to get it done as soon as possible.

How do I volunteer? I want to be local Russian reporter for fictional Al Jazeera equivalent. "The situ'acijom is currently under control, but for huw long, only God knows. Боже мој, was that a bomb explosion?"

Emil G

How about Dinklebean? He could be good as a newscaster.

PizzaDiPasta123

Sounds good so far. :) I would really love to take a shot as a newscaster. But since I don't have a proper microphone/recording software, I would rather let someone with proper equipment do it. (But I will keep my hand up in case there are no other women willing to do it.) It could also be funny to have news from different contries/in different languages, however that probably won't work that well, because the audience is mainly english speaking, right?

Antifis

I'd give being a newscaster a shot

Nicky

Make sure you name them in the video. Maybe a Voiceover introducing them. Just for the 25 minute of YouTube fame :)

wuud

I think your audience is big enough to have some good voices. Maybe you can try and get a hold of nox, friends with Liechtenstein?

Azure

I will still volunteer my voice should it be needed and await to see what script you have in mind.

T-Bro

Sounds like a cool idea with free labor... Erm I mean volunteers to do the news reading. I really look forward to see the finished product. Might even give it a shot, even if I have a danish accent.

Are you saying you still haven't got anyone for your news reporter voice? plenty of people volunteering here for it to use and I have a few years experience of Radio Broadcasting and have done this sort of thing before. I can get voice pieces done tomorrow if you want? let me know i'm happy to help

I have no idea if I can do a good enough newscaster voice but I'm happy to try if needed.

Deathmunk

A rich Kiwi accent would be funny, AcidVash or I can do that

Jinxamus

Oscar S

I would be very happy to give it ago, and hell, I did the BBC School Report for my school once, so obviously good at it (jks)

SummerGirrl

Are you looking for a native English voice, or is just speaking "good and understandable" English enough? If it is, then I'd love to volunteer.

Rafael Ibanez

I have a shy but cute sounding Russian friend who would love to give this a try

BiPolar HoneyBear

Are you looking for different languages or just english?
