General information
Locating this thread
This thread is not directly stickied at the top of the Editor's Guild forum (EG). Therefore it will drop off the forum's first page when other threads are newly created or replied to. When that happens you can locate it again in several ways. One is using the search box in the upper right corner (f.e. by typing keywords 'voice actors'). Another way is clicking the thread 'Resources for Mission Authors' which is marked Important at the top of the EG. There you'll find the link to this thread mentioned under the section 'Other Resources for Mission Authors'. A third way to locate it is accesssing your list of Subscribed Threads. First you'll need to subscribe to this thread by clicking Thread Tools > Subscribe to this Thread... (visible in the upper right corner of the thread). Once that is done you can go to 'Quick Links', visible in the horizontal bar at the top of the forums, and then click 'Subscribed Threads' in the drop down menu (only visible after logging in).
Information for those looking for voice actors
Finding the right voice actor
There are two different approaches to find the voice actor you need.
- One way is to post a request in this thread, describing the criteria and details of the job, and let voice actors respond or get in touch with you. While being faster than the other approach, it's uncertain who and how many voice actors will respond.
- Another way is to actively approach voice actors yourself. By clicking 'view information' behind each name, you can determine (by reading about voice type and listen to any shared recordings) who is appropriate to record the lines for the character in your FM. Depending of a preferred way of contact the person might have shared, you can then access the person's TTLG profile and get in touch. While being more time consuming, it might help finding a voice actor who is the most suited for the character you have in mind.
Using the list as starting point
When browsing through this thread you may come across posts with info made by forum members who once reported for voice acting but are currently no longer active. Therefore it's recommended to always check the above list to make sure a certain voice actor is still active these days, in case you like to contact a voice actor directly. The list will be updated every time there's a mutation.
Final stages of development
It's recommended to wait until your mission is in the final stages of development, before asking voice actors to record conversations. It happend too often that voice work was done for a mission that never made it to release.
Absence of voice actors
At some point you may notice an (Absent) mention behind the name of one or more voice actors in the list. This means he or she is difficult to reach and that it's uncertain wether or not they're still available for requests.
Information for (potential) voice actors
Post with information
When you sign up for participation and create a post in this thread as announcement, a link to that post will be added behind your name in the list above. You can use your announcement post to include relevant information about you as voice actor/actress. For example:
1: Type of voice (the kind of voice you have, what would be a convincing in-game character to voice, your gender, and any links to voice samples you like to share);
2: Experience (any fan missions or other projects you lend your voice to);
3: Status/contact (preferred way of getting in touch, response time to requests, specification of your availabilty, f.e. "Quite busy atm, requests may take 2 months")
You can also look into the posts other participants created earlier, to see what they share and how they display their info.
Updating your post
It's recommended to update your announcement post with info each time, rather than posting a reply with updated info. This way information is kept in one place and FM designers can easily find all the info they need by clicking the links above. Of course you can always post a reply in this thread to say something has changed in your original post and refer to it (by including a hyperlink).
Absence
At some point you may receive a private message or email to check wether or not you're still available for voice acting requests. When there's no reply or your post with information is not updated, an (Absent) mention will be placed behind your name in the above list. Once you respond or update your post and indicate you're still up for requests, the mention will be removed. In case the absence endures for 3 months your name will ultimately be deleted from the list. This is done to ensure a clean, up-to-date overview of voice actors who are currently available.
Adding/removing
Let me know (by personal contact or reply in this thread) when:
- you want to be mentioned (again) in the voice acting list, or
- you want to see your name removed from the list for whatever reason,
and the necessary changes will be made as soon as possible.
Recommended settings
The following settings are recommended to either get notified about personal requests (or messages in general) sent by private messaging on TTLG, or about voice acting requests posted in this thread.
E-mail notifications

Thread subscribtion
Subscribe to this thread to get informed by email when someone posts a voice-acting request in this thread. Subscribing is done by clicking Thread Tools in the upper right corner of this thread (only visible once logged in).

I haven't managed to get a response out of Wynne for over two years now.
Also, Ibsen's Ghost. He doesn't post much, but does reply to emails.
Wasn't there a young girl who posted not long ago offering voice acting? She claimed to be able to do a good victoria.
There's another actress who I've been trying to convince to offer her services. Maybe she will now.
Ah yes, Silver-ONI.Originally Posted by Digital Nightfall

Instead of another sticky perhaps this info could be merged with the resources sticky.
Let's see I've voiced Garrett for the most part but I've also played Hammerites, Keepers, City Watch Officer, Benny, various guards, a demonic entity, a suicidal idiot, a sales frog, a mage or two, Listus, Kevel, a guardian of the ages, a fence, L'Arsene, a noble, a head servant and a ruthless lawyer. Most recently I voiced three characters for CoSaS Mission X...Lord Raputo, Mr. Cloud and Agent Steel.
Best place to start is where I did...frobber's "A Keeper of the Prophecies" campaign. That mission pack has a good variety of voices from me.
I'm usually available and turn work around in 1-30 days. Contact me at any time during your development process with requests and information about what you need. However I strongly request that you be at the beta testing stage before you actually put me to work. People get lofty ideas, request stuff and then fail to deliver and that has constituted quite a bit or work on my part that was wasted.
I prefer to be contacted via PM here at taffer central. EDIT Jan 2021. I am not around as much these days so if you want to get my attention quickly try my ancient e-mail addy. murkman at hotmail dot com.

How could I forget; Shadow Creepr!
Did Ms. Ledd ever do any voice acting? I very vaguely think I remember her being credited in the past.
She narrated T7Crystal. Plus she's featured in the yet to be released CoSaS mission. Her voice is so sexy it makes a guy want to swoon.![]()
![]()
Ah, yes, I remember both of those... Well one anyway.![]()
Recent Credits
Keeper of Infinity 2: Various guards
A Job Well Done: A thief and a fence
System Shock Inifinite: Captain Diego
The Drymian Codex: Veteran sewer worker
Cell 6: Benny, the Warden, various prisoners and guards
And many, many others...
Voices
I do gruff guard voices well including Benny, or high-timbred servants or nobles, and am American but can manage a passable British accent as well. Pretty much any male part I'll give a good shot.
Gear
I have an AT-2020 cardioid condenser mic and a PreSonus AudioBox, so I can record directly to digital 16-bit, with virtually no noise.
I prefer contact by email rather than PMs. I have time for small projects but will consider larger ones as well.

I've recently done some more voices, but the only one I remember off hand is some stuff for Cardia.
Update: I recently purchased a better quality Neewer condenser microphone with a tripod and sound shield stand, so my recordings should be better and have less background noise.

I've voiced for the FMs Shadows of Eidolon, the upcoming Shadows of Eidolon 2, and Stormrunner, as well as a handful of abandoned projects.
My ideal voice types are Guards, Thieves, Civilians, Pagans, and Undead. I can do a wide range of accents as needed.
I'm currently available to have lines done within a day.

Hi Taffers
Ive done a bunch of voicing for T2, T3, TDM and some SS2 missions.
My kit is as follows:
* Blue Yeti USB mic
* Windows 7
* Audacity
The FM's that I have done:
TMA
- The horror contest' - the entry set in winter, where I did the cook and some of the hammers.
- DrK's The Rocksbourg series - ive done a few of the guards. In Rockbourg 3 you will be greeted by a character at the beginning of the FM who will have my voice and then through-out the mission other various characters (some of the Souls).
- The Hammerite imperium - the gold team.
TDM
- Voice of average jack Ai & other idle and misc sounds.
- The Sarget in Sotha's "the package".
- Average Jack Ai lines and a bunch of the Ai noises.
- Custom Average Jack Ai lines, for various TDM mission.
T3/SS2
- The voice of Lord mercer in The Cabal campaign (T3).
- DinkSmallwood & Christine's SS2 missions, which I think were the last few to be made.
Im sure ove more, but cant remember
Type of voice:
I've done/do, Hammers, Mechanists, Guards, Thieves, Undead, Upper classes. That said Im not afraid to try other voices.
I have done untold amounts of misc noises - farts, coughs, snoring, sleeping, spitting, laughing, humming, fighting, killing, dying, (replacements for the none verbal noises). And I'm open to try and do any noise that we can think needs replacing.
biker
NB: Phantom, you should PM Quincy Jones Wannabe and his mate Karl as they were amazing in Rocksbourg 3, They are as good as our own Slyfoxx :-)

I've worked with:
Frobber
Sterlino
YcatX - mission not released yet.
T2X
BlackRuin
And a voice for Alien Swarm, not a part of TTLG, close though.
And god knows who else I am forgetting.
[edit as of 11/12/2010]
Working on something for darthsLair right now. Working with gaetane on some lines, that are completed, and need to still do the briefing. I just finished some major work for the Dark Mod. I'm one of the female characters in the game. Lots and lots of line were recorded A noblewoman, with a bit of an english accent.
I've got a very distinct voice, mainly strong, can sound like a mech female guard. I've learned to soften the edges as they say a bit, with a bit higher pitch when needed.

This is another good idea from The Phantom. I've thought before that it would be useful to have some kind of a list of available voice actors, and now we do.
Thanks for the compliment![]()
Perhaps a question about voice acting, with a link to this thread, can be included in the Dromed FAQ?
They're both no longer active on this forum.
Personally i don't really care if this thread gets stickied or not, as long as fm authors are able to find it.
It's good to see many voice actors already reported.
I'll drop those who haven't done so yet a message at a later time.
When people know of others who've done voice acting in the past, feel free to contact them and ask if they're still interested.
I didn't see mention of this thread in your custom resources guide, Phantom. I was going to add it myself but then I saw that's your post, so I figured you'd be better off editing it yourself.
I'm not going to sticky this because there's already a stickied thread which should be a parent thread to this.
Ibsen sent me some demo reels:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sf1zS...eature=related
Due credit has been given to the 'Hammerite Imperium' project, especially in the first one. My own personal favourite stuff is towards the end of part 2.
Thanks for the PM! Of course, I don't check the boards much anymore, but am available via email for anyone in need.
1: Experience (name the missions you lend your voice to)
Keeper of the Prophecies series: Alisha, Little Girl; intro to first mission is a good example
COSAS: Mission X: Agent Stone
Circulation of Shadows by Yandros: Tivren, Keeper
Deceptive Perception 2 by Yandros: White Lady
Rose Cottage: Coroner's voice recording
Untitled410 by Moghedian and Sluggs: Isabel the bookie, barmaid
The Folly of Youth by The_Dude: Airplane Announcer
Other non-Thief credits (some still in production)
Alien Swarm (for UT2004) by Black Cat Games: Wildcat (Meow!)
Alien Swarm (stand alone released by Valve) by Black Cat Games: Wildcat
The Nameless Mod (for Deus Ex): Kylie, Shaina, misc females
The Lost Spires (for Elder Scrolls IV) by Leo Gura: Sova
Bloody Ruins (for System Shock 2) by Christine Schneider: Brenda Holt
Ponterbee Station (for System Shock 2) by Christine Schneider: Elisabeth Archer, Susann Arnold
I also have done several radio plays and I am a frequent VA for on-line training developed where I work.![]()
2: Type of voice (sounds best for hammerite guard, thief, nobleman, or pagan etc)
Um...well, I'm female. That's all most of you want to know.![]()
Seriously, though, I do a general American or upscale British accent, and if pressed, can do a southern American accent as well. I am best suited for characters that need to sound well-educated, snobby, and/or sarcastic.
I also am a very experienced vocalist (singer), so if you have the need for any singing, I'm your girl. From a technical standpoint, I'm a light lyric soprano, but I can sing a wide variety of music, from popular tunes to musicals to jazz to classical (including Opera).
3: Recordings (post any links where examples of your voice can be heard)
There's one on my Voice123 profile:
http://voice123.com/lizmuirhead?431264504488.651
There are also a few more on my personal webpage, which is linked at the bottom of my Voice123 profile.
4: Status (currently too busy, already occupied, available until summer, that sort of thing)
I have to find time away from my kids and job to record, so if you need it really quickly, please find someone else. Otherwise, I love to hear from people and would be thrilled to lend my talents to your next mission! Just don't forget to poke and prod me until you get my work.![]()
5: Other info
I record w/ an Edirol UA-25 pre-amp, and an Electro-Voice N/D 357AS mic w/ a VERY low-tech pop filter. This setup has produced recordings adequate for the quality standards of every project I've worked on for the past two years. Anything pre-2006 was done on different and lower quality equipment. (Thanks to AS:I for financing a portion of this purchase!)
I really hate having to do any post-production work with my recordings. I'm frankly not very good at it, and it takes a LOT more time than recording them. If I can send you all the lines in one huge file and you can enhance/cut/whatever them, I will be very happy.
I prefer to be credited as Liz "Lizanneh" Muirhead, since I am trying to grow my credits outside the fan community as well.![]()
