    Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh that’s the most gorgeous profile pic ever, @rose-colored-fancy!

    Ooh, cool! Where do you find music to download? I can’t seem to find any. (Not that I looked terribly hard XD)

    uhhhh, lemmie see…I searched “free sound effects” and just kinda clicked every page that came up until I got free sound effects XDDD

    Free Sounds Library is good, MixKit has a lot of options available without signing in anything or what, you can get “unlimited downloads” for something but a lot is just fine to just kinda download whenever, so those are my two favorites cos they download without any hassle.

    LOL, I don’t think I’d be able to do it! I imagine her accent very clearly and it’s just so fun!

    LOL YES!!! IT’S ABSOLUTELY IMPOSSIBLE AND I CAN’T WAIT TO TRY!!!!

    I actually know very little about my characters’ actual voices… I just don’t think in that way, for some reason? I know Liorah has a deep voice for a girl and Chantara has a very definite accent (I’ve tried reading it out loud but I can’t keep it consistent for two words in a row XD) Actually all the characters have some kind of accent but I’ve given up on reading it since I just don’t know how it actually sounds.

    Ahhh yes, I thought I know my characters voices incredibly well until I tried to do them, apparently “hearing” a voice and “being able to imitate it” are two verrrry different things 😅

    I do have a very definite idea of their delivery, so I mostly play around with that. Liorah always sounds kinda sassy and defiant (Surprising, isn’t it? XD) Sahar speaks very quickly and excitedly, Faye has a very soft, kinda whispery voice. Acyn’s voice is probably my favorite to do, he has an extremely dry sense of humor and all his dialogue sounds either overly dramatic or completely deadpan. It’s hilarious XD

    LOL YES!!! I KNOW THEIR DELIVERY DOWN TO THE SLIGHTEST INFLECTION…and…that’s hard to imitate a character (Alessio) who is both completely deadpan and overly dramatic at the same time!!!

    (Not even to mention it’s actually rather hard to do a guy voice…which I totally wouldn’t be trying to do perfectly XDDD btw there’s actually a method for adapting different voices by imitating cartoon characters to start and a buncha different resources for changing your voice and…😄)

    (I need to find a non-spoilery piece where they’re all talking XD That’ll be hilarious XD)

    YES!!! DO!!!!!!

    Oh! I think you specified at the beginning of the forum somewhere but I forgot  how long are audio samples allowed to be?😂ten to fifteen, fifteen to twenty minutes tops? Or was it a specific wordcount? 🤔
