SPEAK UP


Friends! your lamecore mod has returned! gather around!

i bring to you tonight a wonderful idea - it's not mine, of course, it's the fabulous [livejournal.com profile] torra's. yes, it's night here.

we want you,* all our fantabulous readers as well as any willing podfic enthusiast and passer-by listener, to produce a snippet of audio about 15 seconds long (or less, not more) recording your sincere thank yous and congratulations, so that we'll then be able to edit them all together in a chorus of applause destined to our winners. What say you? We aim to have at least, oh, 15 little morsels, but the sky's the limit here!

If you speak a foreign language, don't hesitate to include thank yous and felicitations in that or those other tongues. If you want to record your enthusiastic clapping, or some wolf-whistling, please leave some silence between the clapping and these other happy noises - it will make things easier to edit for us. I think I might look for fireworks tracks...

You have ten days to record a little vocal appreciation for our band of merry yet still anon winners and send the mp3 thus produced to our email address: audmod ~at~ gmail (dotcom).

Woohoo! Go podficcing geniuses go!

*(picture that old wartime poster here; fake beards suit me so well!)

Okay wait but hi. Hi. This doesn't mean -- this couldn't mean -- that we have to wait ten days to find out the final standings? Nooooo. No. Of course not.

Ka'Plah!

Sweet!

I'm really curious, how many different languages we get together. I can add german to the mix and maybe Latin, if I find my old school books :).

[identity profile] cadeira.livejournal.com 2008-06-04 12:00 pm (UTC)(link)
I´m a German native... so I can take over that. But Latin would be awesome. Anybody who speaks Greek out there? That idea is just awesome!

I'm also a German native, who just happens to live in France :). But the more the merrier: How about dialects ?

[identity profile] cadeira.livejournal.com 2008-06-04 02:38 pm (UTC)(link)
I always aim for Hochdeutsch.
But I come from Saxony-Anhalt and moved to NRW a while ago. I won´t speak in the Saxon dialect just to amuse others. I simply won´t and refuse to even think about it any further. *g*
How weird to write in English to other Germans...

[identity profile] podfic-lover.livejournal.com 2008-06-04 03:43 pm (UTC)(link)
But I was so hoping for Saxon ;). Sadly I'm not even able to fake a dialect without offending native speakers.

How weird to write in English to other Germans...

For me fanfic = English, LJ = English -> I think I haven't visited a German LJ page ever ...

That´s what I thought... well I´ll see what I can come up with...

It´s true, all German speakers I know aroung here, keep their journals in English, it´s weird nonetheless to me. I can´t help it.

There is a distinct risk that I might find it necessary to sing. Be afraid.

[identity profile] blienky27.livejournal.com 2008-06-04 12:30 am (UTC)(link)
I'd do Spanish, but I'm really afraid I'd screw it up. :/ But I'll be recording something, surely.

Wow, I didn't think you guys would actualy go for it, cool! ::LOL:: I just thought it would be really cool thing for someone to have, I didn't think you'd actualy like it too! ::LOL::

Now to record my own 15 minutes seconds of fame...hum, I wonder if I can podfic in ASL...
