I'm working on reading and voicing every book in Skyrim for use in a portfolio, and I wanted to share with you one of my readings, because there is no critique like Cred Forums critique.
The idea is to read every book in the most likely voice of the author. Imperials will have a certain tone, Khajiit, etc. This is a very rough runthrough of the 16 Accords of Madness.
I plan to release the entire 200+ library on the Nexus, to be used with the Books Aloud mod.
I expected shit, but this sounded really good, nice work OP
my one complaint is that I think I may have heard some background noise, but I'm not sure.
Colton Lee
You're pretty good.
Henry Morales
I think my dog moved around and it might have picked up the jangling. I'm hoping after I do the final versions, it should be 100% clear.Hey, thanks so much!
Does anyone have any book requests? I'm just going down the alphabetical list and I'm so goddamn sick of Carlovac's writing. He has some cool subject matter, but he never sticks with a scene long enough for it to be interesting.
Joseph Mitchell
Absolutely amazing. Great work. Keep at it.
Lucas Rivera
Do the lusty argonian maid
Grayson Ortiz
good job , nigga
Brandon Rogers
Not gonna lie, you're talented. Do you do voice over work for a living?
Colton Barnes
Nice work man.
Joseph Evans
Sounds professional, user.
Alexander Wilson
nice
Christopher Scott
bretty gud
Nathaniel Watson
It's not a book, but I'd love to hear you read A Worn and Weathered note. It's my favorite written piece from the Elder Scrolls games.
What a waste of energy, such a waste is so monumental that i can only applaud the effort.
Joseph Martinez
I do not, but I'd very much like to! I am pursuing it currently! Lusty Argonian Maid coming right up. How would you all like it read? Argonian voice? Imperial, Dark Elf?
Michael Williams
kys
>Lusty Argonian Maid coming right up pic related
Josiah Johnson
Holy shit. I wanna fuck your voice. After this project of yours, you should add more samples of dialogue with different tones and inflections too. You're a good book reader but, by nature, book reading is mostly monotone.
Coming right up! It'll take a few minutes to record LAM and this one! Should be done in about a week! I'll link it here! That's the idea. I can't think of a better resume builder than literally hundreds of short stories!
Jack Sullivan
Are you a smoker, OP?
John Hughes
I have five done right now, I'm going to release them 25 at a time! nexusmods.com/skyrim/users/864712/? Ignore the shit from years ago, cringy!
Thomas Stewart
Dear diary: Today OP was not a faggot and in fact is one of the coolest people on this earth.
Keep on rocking.
Signed, A massive faggot
Carson Adams
Imperial would fit the author.
Mason Nelson
Woah, sounds nice. But you're going to narrating a lot of books with different voices, will this mod be a long project?
Alexander Russell
I dig it
Nathaniel Fisher
You have a great voice user,keep it up.
Parker Thomas
Add a slutty outfit to it and I'll download
Jack Wright
Imperial. You might want to read some other stuff too to expand your portfolio. Read a bit of classic literature and maybe some Sci-fi or military fluff.
Jose Long
...
Michael Nelson
Honestly excellent, please continue. I'd download a finished product.
Jordan Bell
This is kind of an expansion to an already existing mod, Books Read Aloud. The current release has computerized voices, but I thought that was dumb, and so I wanted to do a professionally acted, full reading of every book. If it's well recieved, I may do Morrowind as well, but that's a huge 'if."
>I'm working on reading and voicing every book in Skyrim lol that's the gayest fucking thing.
>clyp.it/piguwjvu ...Fuck me sideways, I take back what I screeched internally.
You know, if you added an option to continue the reading after putting the book away, I could "read" every single book while hunting some deer and shit.
I have a question - your current voice is appealing... But what of your other ones? What's your Argonian drawl like?
Jackson Thompson
The mod I'm making this for does that very thing!
And I can do pretty much any of the races. In a couple of the books I've done yet, I pull out Argonian and Khajiit! I will ABSOLUTELY check this out!
In the meantime, you guys wanna hear some character packs I made for Baldur's Gate?
Eli Sullivan
This is good but I'd rather not listen to every book being read this dramatically Going from quiet to loud to quiet If I'm playing the game I just want to hear what the book has in it not a reenactment of it yknow
Robert Ward
>In the meantime, you guys wanna hear some character packs I made for Baldur's Gate? YES
...I mean.
Yeah, like, if you wanna, no biggie.
Andrew Collins
Only some of them are like that. I try to research the authors as much as possible, and there are some authors that I think would be MUCH more deadpan. I wanted to stay as lore friendly as possible.
Do a fabulous imperial voice. Curio was a noted fabulous bisexual pervert who was also a political and financial madman. Think David Bowie meets Willy Wonka.
Austin Torres
Your Chaotic Neutral is like a roguish sailor character you met in a bar. Bro material.
Angel Butler
dont be a voice actor ure maximum cucked and theres no respect for them in western industry
>"Did I ever tell you the story of the guy I kicked in the head 'til he was dead?" NYA HA HA HA
Aiden Butler
>lol what a f- Dayum son that fucking voice, I'm hard
Logan Reyes
Absolutely.
Jordan Long
Jesus Christ even after seeing the posts saying this was good you still suprisied me with how good this was. Good luck with the mod.
Jaxon Gonzalez
I listen to quite a few audio books, and you're just as good as any of those readers, if not better. Outstanding work. My one suggestion is maybe add a bit more range to your performance. Your sample in the OP did the dark and doom sections very well, but a bit of lightness would have been good as well. Then again, with how short each book in game is, it probably wont matter all that much if each individual piece doesn't have a wide vocal range in it. Either way, fantastic job OP
Tyler Wright
Hot damn, son. I hope someone picks you up for professional work after this drops, you've got some solid range and your delivery is really strong.
Liam Bailey
>clyp.it/piguwjvu Not bad, I was expecting a nasally high pitched voice, pleasently surprised.
Brandon Ramirez
Jesus Christ guys, you have me all flustered like a big ol' faggot!
Truly, thank you for the kind words. And as promised, here's some sweet Imperial on Argonian action. I can't do a female Argonian, so I've made this book into a homoerotic reimagining.
I tried to read this like it was the same level of acting as actual porn. If you'd like volume 2 to be a little more range-y, let me know!
Kayden Moore
...
Sebastian Bell
Your Argonian is spot on.
That's all I wanted to know. Male Argonian voice, I laughed.
Daniel Gonzalez
Is there a loli version of this mod?

Joseph Moore
OP, what kind of audio set up are you using? I assume you must be using an XLR microphone and an audio interface, right?
Luis Mitchell
...yeah, I can't argue with that.
I was going for like, not TOO New Yorky, but like...some sort of urban voice. Ah well. I loved recording it, and I liked the personality it had!
Cameron Gray
Given who wrote this I can't really say this is a disservice. Fantastic.
Landon King
>clyp.it/snbt0uc3 absolutely fantastic. I'm in love. you have amazing talent
Liam Jones
I like it, you should look into work involving audiobooks.
I hear it pays peanuts though.
Elijah Martinez

I heard your work (assuming you are OP) and im extremely jealous because my voice is shit.

Lusty Argonian Maid, v2
And I'm recording a special thank you to all of you guys!
Indie dev here. Last voice actor fell through. Need a few lines done, 2-4 pages atm, maybe more. Just 1 character. Tutorial lines and then actual story dialogue.
Older, weathered, well-read scientist type. Script is being worked out but we'll need lines in the coming months. You got a contact email OP?
Not gonna sugar coat, it's me and 2 other devs at the moment, so money won't be great. First game were making out of college but were over a year into it. Maybe we can work something out. Name on credits of course.
About to sleep but if you post an email or contact here I'll try to get back to you tomorrow. If not the weekend.
Mason Cox
Immortal Blood is currently being recorded! Stand by!
In the interim, I'm actually lead voice actor in a project called Fallout 4: Cascadia, give it a quick peek if you want!
Ryan Scott
>It could take....hours What exactly did you do to make the word "hours" sound like that?

Luke Lopez
Could you please do some oblivion guard lines please???
Brayden James
Hey fuck yea man. Was hoping I wouldnt have to stay up refreshing.
I'll shoot something over the coming days. Voice actors are hard to come by, especially when the funds are tight.
Hopefully we can help each other out.

'Nother dev here, just swipe that contact info as well if you don't mind. Sometimes opening up Cred Forums pays off. We won't be ready for any voice till next year but who knows maybe I'll give you a shout for a few lines (Jeff Stietzer announcer kinda shit).
At any rate, gg OP
Liam Flores
do you have a steam
Levi Gutierrez
Could you please read this pic in an imperial voice or whatever really? You are amazing and beat a lot of hacks that are in the biz.
Brody Perez
I like what you're doing In the Maid narrated your Argonian sounds like he's out of Oblivion when the beast races shared a voice though instead of the duller and less accented skyrim version I would really like to hear what you could do with The Sallow Regent or Mannimarco, King of Worms, since they have a bit of rhyme going on
Oliver Kelly
>devs should be acknowledged even if they haven't made and sold a single game in their entire lives Wew lad. Do you like getting fucked in the ass by indie devs? I bet you're a supporter on both someone's patreon and kickstarter alike. Remove yourself from the genepool, my pathetic friend.
Nathaniel Wilson
Currently editing immortal blood, and holy wow, that was a good read!
Adam Scott
Great job bro! I would critique the higher pitch parts and certain words. you lose you accent and it sounds very flat. It just needs more practice, the biggest critic is yourself Keep it up man.
Not that, I just want to see what the game is about so I can have resources to make thumbnails and banners for twitter and stuff.
Lemme try!
Absolutely my friend! I also have a show on YouTube called Drinks With Devs you might look into, and I'm starting a new show called Rapidfire where I showcase a bunch of upcoming indie titles! Check out DwD, and if we chat and it all goes well, we might be able to do one!
Please do !I do, MorganCross1991 Will do!

Jackson Jackson
You should make ASMR videos.
Jacob Torres
Damn, nice work.
I have a bunch of short stories that I've translated that would be cool to have audiobooks of. Maybe I should look into finding someone to read them.

Hunter Perez
"What are you doing with my teeth? Making a freaking necklace?"
Matthew Hernandez
I'mma put this out there for everyone who has said they wish they could get into voice acting, or who has any dreams of it.
Above in this thread, ctrl+f and you'll find my setup. Youtube is remarkable, and you can find tutorials endlessly there. I'll be honest, here's how I practice the actual speaking.
When you're taking a shit, just make up quiet monologues to yourself. Practice inflections in the car. Read game text aloud when you're alone, and practice in the dark. If you have that practice, and listen to other voice actors on YouTube (Look up Voice Sessions, they're amazing!) all it takes is gear. And there are a thousand others just like me with deep voices, it's the people with different voices that have the leg up on me.
Do it, my friends. You have my email and my steam, and if I can help you get started, you need but ask.
>vocaroo.com/i/s1qnZEBRe0RG No sir, you're awesome! And now I'm deaf and can no longer pursue my dream of voice acting

Why do people make this complaint if they know what's going to happen. Skyrim is a game you take out of the garage for a joy ride once in a while. You don't take apart your car when you're no using it do you?
Cooper Moore
I hope you plan on doing a lawful evil and lawful neutral one as well, based user.
Well that's it gang tomorrow when I sober I'll post some readings myself. What haven't you done OP? Also you all may recognize my voice from shitty YouTube commercials but hopefully not. I'll try and not go all Troy Mclure on you.
Ian Richardson

I think you messed up your editing, there's some lines spoken twice, but damn that's good. Bonus points for that 10/10 evil laugh.
Juan Parker
If it's in skyrim, it'll DEFINITELY be in the game! I can usually do about five books a day, since I also do a shitty ass YouTube thing which takes a lot of time, but I'll probably be popping into Cred Forums every so often to do more requests since I'm a greedy little whore who likes the eyeballs on me!
Brayden Roberts
Read this if you can do Shadowbama and Romney the Hedgehog.
Couple of missed bits where you messed something up and said it again, but it's been done well. I like the voice you gave to Morvath especially, and the evil laugh at the end was nice.
Tyler Flores
Fuck, I was worried about that! Many apologies!
What is this an excerpt from? I have an idea for how to read it in my head, but I don't want the tone to be wierd!
Nathan King
Now that I'm actually listening to these, wow. I mean, I've been told I'm good but I could never do these intense emotional voiced like this.
Do you have anything from Eternal Darkness? "Read" this, if you could (haven't watched the whole thing; just wanted to get my request out there. I hope it has the "may the rats eat your eyes" bit): youtube.com/watch?v=dulfJo-NmWU
Jose Jones
i think its from avatar
Nolan Ross
Any chance you would read aloud this story I wrote when I was like 5 years old?
the protagonist is the main character of the story and the antagonist is whoever opposes them, doesn't say anything about who you're rooting for or who's in the right
Yeah, yeah, I fucked up. Please don't laugh. I missed one > and merged two sentenced into one retarded one
William Phillips
>find yourself a negress
Landon Brown
yeah, quartich was the main character but the story is told though the view point of the antagonist, a species traitor that would doom his species for some alien poon while Quartich is there to secure humanities future
I'm using my own country's terminology, so excuse me, but >the story is told though the view point of But he is not serving the purpose of a witness type narrator. He involves himself heavily into the story and is the central figure of certain acts within the narrative chain in which Quartich doesn't even appear, ergo he's the protagonist.
That's some pretty good work brother. You should apply at Skywind or Bethesda or something.
Owen Russell
>clyp.it/ybtb5xlk 10/10, would crusade with. only criticism is that i would have preferred it be given in a more restrained manner, with quiet surety instead of passion.
Nicholas Turner
Thank you, based user.
Henry Brown
holy shit this is perfect
Jaxson Parker
He's just meme'ing on you. Quaritch is neither the protagonist nor is he the main character (since those are one and the same).
Why not just be a voice actor in general? You are thinking small. Make a couple audio videos redubbing game scenes, put on youtube and wait it happen or send it straight to game devs.
Joseph Smith
I want to have sex with you while you talk like this.
Blake Jones
After listening again, I think I agree. It's just really nice to let loose sometimes, I think
Recording now!

Bumping
A bit of an inconvenient request so I'll only bump it this once.
user, do you have any tips on exercising and developing an accent?
I'm from an euro country with regional (sub)dialects, but being born in a somewhat large city I never developed a full thick accent. Would it be too hard to do it now as an adult?
Cooper Fisher
This would make an amazing mod if it played everything you opened a book.
I was looking through my folder and I saw something that I hadn't thought about in forever. It might be a bit long, though.
Austin Evans
My trick is to find standup comedians or public speakers with the accent I'm trying to emulate. It works out realy well since it's just hours of people talking in a specific way, and you can really get a grip on the subtle nuiances!
My Australian is entirely derived from Jim Jefferies
Brayden Lewis
I do. I am still trying to put it back together. I lost my job and my wife left me. Thanks Todd
Alexander Perry
Chaotic Neutral reminds me a bit of Carl from ATHF, just slightly.
Nicholas Perry
Wow that's really good. I wish you luck, however that's a fuckton of reading my friend. I love bethesda for giving THAT MUCH LORE. But best of luck to you all the same
Henry Jackson
Exactly what I was expecting, but I didn't think it would turn out this good without the shouting. Thanks.
Dominic Butler
My main problem is that if I try to speak it in public, it sounds forced and over the top. Guess I'll just have to practice in my house until I can hit that sweet spot between forced and faint.
Have you ever used an accent(that was not innate) in public?
Elijah Hernandez
>clyp.it/piguwjvu This is fucking great. I absolutely hate TES games but you're good at this. I'd love to hear you do a reading of The Dark Tower series.
Funny you should mention, anytime I'm in a different city, I pretend to be a brit when I'm bar hopping. It makes it criminally easy to just walk up to people and strike up a conversation. It's also INCREDIBLE practice, because people can and will point out if it suonds fake!
Christian Murphy
I am not Joking when I say I will suck your Dick if I ever meet you IRL if you do this. Please I am honestly On my fucking Knees right now I will post a picture if you do this fucking please

The entire setup, with mic, stand, and interface costs around, after tax and/or shipping, 300 or so. You can get them used for pretty cheap and in good condition!
MAAAN...You guys are just too fucking cool. I am feeling prety fucking inspired.
Good night, everyone!

In the end, we realised why a talented guy such as himself isn't doing voice work for games.

You should consider volunteering for voice acting in skywind. >tesrenewal.com/forums/voice-acting/voice-acting-hub-and-instructional-guide It will look a lot better in your portfolio to have VA in a published medium where you've worked as part of a team, rather than just saying in your sparte time you read books from an autism simulator.
Either you are GeneralIvan or you're doing a dead ringer impression of him what the fuck is happening
Thomas Adams
You have fantastic timbre to your voice, but there are some pacing issues. Longer pauses in appropriate places would be better.
Also a fair bit of over-acting. Some of the heavier lines are comical instead of ominous. I understand the pieces are meant to have an ominous, intense atmosphere to them, but it all seems over-done.
Honestly, you have a great voice, but some professional acting advice might be best for you. Getting feedback from us is flattering, but we're not really qualified to genuinely critique you. There's a significant talent here, so please do carry on.
Brayden James
You have to keep the male voice for this. I'm fucking dying of laughter.
Ian Turner
>for use in a portfolio >all these people asking if he's a voice actor I mean, he pretty much said that's the point of all this btw OP, what kinda equipement you using? just a mic and interface or you have a preamp as well? Also what mic?
Daniel Lopez
I work with reading for the blind and dyslexic, although they've changed their name a few times. OP's work is useful to the disabled community, specifically for people who have enough functionality to play, but can't deal with walls of text.
Shut your nerd hole, bitchtits. Bethesda's got zero chance of challenging this, and even if they did, there's a fair use application big enough to drive a truck through.
Once OP has enough of a demo reel, perhaps user could help him pick out some choice bits for the front of the portfolio.
Dominic Perry
Best thread I've seen all year. Well done OP, and best of luck.
Samuel Martinez
hot voice op
Nicholas Richardson
OP, whoever does the programming for the mod get him/her to have it not auto play but have a button to make it start reading, and someway to turn it of or pause it if needed.
Justin Perry
I never post but your voice makes miracles happen.
Said it best.
Longer pauses on the books would do wonders if the point is to tell a story. It's obviously different if the character would be hurrying through a book as fast as possible.
How heavy the acting can be would depend on the setting of the game as well. Over-acting being definitely better than the disinterested basic voices of Skyrim for example.
Would prefer your voice above a majority of them in current games OP!
Cooper Rivera
Read waking dreams
Isaiah Wilson
Very impressive, I would love to hear your other voices. Also, you should tripfag in these threads m8

Excellent user. Have you ever considered doing professional voice work?
I've being interested in the Mexican dubbing industry for quite a lot of time, now. However, I'm a filthy Perufag, and I kinda want to start building a portfolio.
Any mexibros in here? How could one go into the dubbing industry?
I guess I could start LPing some games and dubbing them in Spanish.

Bethesda should just hire you to do every voice in the next Elder Scrolls.

THIS ONE OP, PLEASE
Ryder Taylor
Nice work. Although I can hear you take breathe which I assume shouldn't be there? I dunno, never heard audio books.
Cameron Watson
nice work op.
Xavier Adams
Can this be like a new thing? We’ve got drawthreads, how about voicethreads?
OP, you’re amazing, and the kind of person that makes coming to Cred Forums worthwhile.
Dylan Thomas
This is some awesome stuff, dude. I'll be downloading that mod when its ready.
Leo Hall
fucking excellent
Leo Johnson
Holy shit that was amazing. Thank you for doing a reading of that.
Adam Wright
I'm jumping on this bandwagon to let you know this sounds dope, and should have been in the game to begin with fuck you bethesda.

>I'm working on reading and voicing every book in Skyrim for use in a portfolio >portfolio are you that bad at reading or just retarded? making a portfolio for employers is a hell of a lot better way to use your time than shitposting on Cred Forums

Logan Davis
I hope OP has realized by now that Cred Forums is fucking with him and that he's actually shit. Also, the Skyrim books are horribly written.
You know how every once in a while theres a Cred Forums thread that isn't shit, well this is one of them my friend. Hope you get hired you've got a real knack for this!
Blake Walker
>it's actually good
What the fuck?
Jaxson Powell
>opened the thread to shit all over some faggy tranny trying to get into VA >turns out OP is pretty fucking great
Good job user, you're already better than 90% of the industry.
Nathan Rivera
AAAAAAAW SHEEET- This is as awesome as a spring tide possum during the yule ball. Keep up the excellent work man!
Isaiah Martin
I expected the voice of a scrawny little kid, I'm genuinely surprised. good job
Nicholas Evans
This is awesome dude, you should make it so you can select a book to read whilst journeying, kind of like the radio in Fallout games. So that I can either hear your narration of the book in my inventory while I ride my horse, or while sat in my house by the fire, rather than having the book in my face.
Kevin Ramirez
Dude, you're very talented. Do you have some sort of training, like acting classes or something related with the voice? kek, silly question but i've always wanted to get into this stuff.
Nolan Carter
>mfw have a good voice >can't into accents
Teach me OP. I've passed a Cambridge English Advanced exam yet I still can't speak properly.
Jeremiah Gutierrez

fuckin good shit user
Julian Howard
Get rid of that background noise and use some sound proofing/dampening in the room and it's golden.
Hey voice actor user If you're still here how do I start out learning to do this kind of stuff?
Samuel Lopez
She reminds me of Angela White, but I cannot confirm.
Isaac White
PALLA WHEN?
That was my favorite book series in TES.
Gabriel Sullivan
Like one user already said I expected shit when I read your post but you're actually pretty good.
Josiah Butler
>homoerotic reimagining I've fapped to the idea of a Rusty Argonian Servant many times before now. I better be getting credit for this!
Blake Taylor
pretty sure that's her, thanks!
Jayden Clark
This is one of the best Cred Forums threads in a long, long time.
I fucking salute you, OP.

Josiah Martinez
Can you say "...and there goes the nuggets...." in the deepest voice you can?
I need it, for reasons.
Cameron Lewis
You sound like a young Simon Templeman would love to hear you do Kain
Sebastian Green
this is why i keep coming here, once in a while we have an amazing thread like this
Ian Walker
This must be a Kirkbride, right?
Robert Hernandez
Something about the cadence of your reading is off. It sounds very flat and pauses at really odd times, making it hard to follow.
Your voice is great (as you know) but if you're wanting to build a portfolio, get a better grasp of the material you're reading before recording and add more inflection and variance to the lines.
Brayden Morris
I like it.
Asher Hughes
ahahahahahahah
Logan Rivera
this is fucking amazing i wish you well in all future endeavors
