BradFu Posted July 2, 2002 Posted July 2, 2002 Hows about this? http://windu.cjb.net/plokoon/plo-lightsaber2.mp3 I cut the accent, used less of the growling effect, and threw in some echo.
inbredyokel Posted July 2, 2002 Posted July 2, 2002 They do seem a little...angry. Like someone really did something to tick him off and he's trying to sound like he can contain his anger and talk bad at the same time. Think calm, peaceful, and collected, he is one of the greatest jedi, after all. Anger and passion would be too great a downfall for him to be such a high-ranking jedi.
PIo Koon Posted July 2, 2002 Posted July 2, 2002 *waits for it to load* damn its taking longer than it should... wow Bradu...i liked the first lightsaber u did... but that one...sounds great man =O)...sounds telepathically to since it took a while to load i went into T2 and all of a sudden i hear "My lightsbaer is ready for the challenge" and i freaked cuz i was like what the hell is that? but then realized it was ur recording...so good job...u got the telephatic sound down good imo grr...damn headphones..that scared me =OD...it really sounded like it was in my head lol one last suggestion(i hope u don't mind =O\) when ur talking and making it...it almost sounds...to slow...like hes standing and isn't in action...so u might wanna say it a little bit faster but then again since hes talking telepathically...telepathic talk might not sound out of breathe or like there really fighting...but i think it would add more to it
pud1 Posted July 2, 2002 Posted July 2, 2002 I thought it would sound kinda like this: http://karnij.homestead.com/files/plokoon1.wav that kinda sux but it's not too far off from what he "Could" sound like! whadaya think?
PIo Koon Posted July 2, 2002 Posted July 2, 2002 argh...i hate having to say i like better than the other =O\ pud that was good...and ur right it might sound like that...but i think Bradfu's latest MP3 soudns the best also Bradfu...if u can find anything on Star Wars Obi 1 for XBox...try and listen to Plo Koon talk...its not telepathic but it might give u an idea on what his voice might sound like
BradFu Posted July 2, 2002 Posted July 2, 2002 How about this: http://windu.cjb.net/plokoon/plo-lightsaber3.mp3 Same as the last one, but the speed is increased considerably.
Mr PoopyPants Posted July 2, 2002 Posted July 2, 2002 Hey, I'm hip, I'm with it. I just think Fisto is kind of a goof.
Toonces Posted July 2, 2002 Posted July 2, 2002 Very nice BradFu, Your latest mp3 is very good, the echo and a little resonance is definatly nessessary, I'm sure talking through that mouthpeice creates a little distortion. A suggestion though, perhaps lower the pitch a little bit, sorta like a stormtrooper. On the next project topic, I was going to attempt to do Kit Fisto, but perhaps someone with your talent should go for it I do like Trebor Coleman though, there is something about him, I'm not sure, he looks pretty badass in that second pic CT http://www.drivingcatstudios.com
inbredyokel Posted July 2, 2002 Posted July 2, 2002 Wow, that's frickin perfect. I would also say ditch the accent on the other recordings, it gets a little distracting. The tone is just right, and it makes it feel more like he regrets having to strike down his opponent, but will do it if he must. He's not boastful, and is just stating things matter-of-factly. If you change anything, I'd say add just a TINY bit more echo, if even that. Quite awsome though Toonces, I think he's going for a telepathic sounding voice, because Plo can't actually talk and his species is adept at that kind of thing(I think). Btw, your emperor model is looking awsome.
BradFu Posted July 2, 2002 Posted July 2, 2002 Well, I'm shooting for telepathic speak, rather than speaking through the mouthpeice. I personally haven't seen anything that indicates he speaks with his mouth, and plenty that indicates he speaks telepathically. Anybody else have an opinion on the voice? I can try all kinds of things
PIo Koon Posted July 2, 2002 Posted July 2, 2002 Good job Bradfu...your Lightsaber 3 was good =O) it gets a lil scratchy in some parts but i won't complain..very good...ty for taking my comments and using them =OD heh also...i do think he talks telepathically...but i mean its kind of hard to believe that he can't speak with a mouth...i think he can speak through the mask (like in Star Wars Obi 1...doesn't make it official though)...and u can tell its definatly not telepathic...and also in jedi "meetings"...telepathic talk wouldn't serve a good purpose...i mena yea...if he did a "global" message im sure eveyrone would know who it was...but i dbout that if there was a "meeting" or anything like that...he would talk telepathically...so i think he can talk through his mask also Lucas Arts wouldn't do that cuz that would be weird if all of a sudden someone said "yes plo koon thats right" and yet no one heard anything =OD lmao anywya Bradfu...great job =O) PS...someone go post in my Dragons Claw thread =OD lol...i need something answered anyway if someone doesn't ,omd taking a look
PIo Koon Posted July 2, 2002 Posted July 2, 2002 hmm...i know this might seem kind of Cocky for a Jedi Master to say (i mean all sith/dark side people have said something similar and died lol) but how does something along these lines sound "Your no match for the ways of a Jedi Master" or soemthing like that...argh..i really gotta stop my spam posting lol..sorry <=O\
Toonces Posted July 2, 2002 Posted July 2, 2002 heh, oops, sorry BradFu, I didn't realise that his species didnt speak I do love the effect you have going on there, cant wait to hear it in game CT http://www.drivingcatstudios.com
-Chrono_MOT- Posted July 2, 2002 Posted July 2, 2002 How about "I do not wish to destroy you, but I will"?
nucular_jedi_14 Posted July 2, 2002 Posted July 2, 2002 had a weird voice that said something........
pud1 Posted July 2, 2002 Posted July 2, 2002 yah bradfu thats really good way better than mine! kinja should use that!
JiPInSane Posted July 2, 2002 Posted July 2, 2002 Sounds great.. since im inexperienced in these kinda things and dont have much experience... I have no real suggestions. As for the next model.... I would say.. 4-lom http://www.starwars.com/databank/droid/4lom/ or Saesee Tiin would look awesome!!!!!!!! http://www.starwars.com/databank/character/saeseetiin/index.html GOGOGOGOGOGOGO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
BradFu Posted July 2, 2002 Posted July 2, 2002 Ok, I think I'm happy with the voice, and it sounds like some of you like it to, so here's some more lines: http://windu.cjb.net/plokoon/Plo-Lightsaber3.mp3 http://windu.cjb.net/plokoon/Plo-Justice2.mp3 http://windu.cjb.net/plokoon/Plo-Impatience2.mp3 http://windu.cjb.net/plokoon/Plo-Harm.mp3 Suggestions on other lines?
JiPInSane Posted July 2, 2002 Posted July 2, 2002 heres another good pic of him.. hes on the left http://www.starwars.com/episode-i/snapshot/1999/06/img/council_bg.jpg (not Plo read above post)
Klorel Posted July 2, 2002 Posted July 2, 2002 I think the voice is good, but maybe a little raspier (sounds a little too human for a crabfaced thing like plo) and a bit more echo. I'm really thinking protoss is the way to go - think dark templar. And maybe have him say something really deep (deep as in metephoric) cause if he can communicate telepathically, he is obviously a highly intelligent being, and being a jedi master, would probably use lots of metaphors like yoda does and such --just with more correct grammar . I just think "My light saber is ready for battle" is a little too... grunt warriorish, they are keepers of the peace, not warriors great work on the sounds so far though, what program are you using? -Klorel
JiPInSane Posted July 2, 2002 Posted July 2, 2002 i think I will setting for almost any of em line wise... Good Job Bradfu

nomad Posted July 2, 2002 Posted July 2, 2002 Bradfu, I like the echo and everything that you've got on the last attempt. The voice sounds ok too, but (Since this is all just out of our own imaginations) I'll suggest adding or creating a sound to his voice that's almost insect-like. I can't think of another way to put it. A little creak or clicking, not scratchy but kind of "croaky" <--- ?? LOL! I don't know, if you could keep the voice you used, maybe a little bit lower/deeper, and add an almost metallic creaking effect to it's ambience. This reminds me of trying to TALK about music... someone said that that's like trying to dance about a book. -nomad MTFBWY
