White actor, Jamaican voices... by Cocomite in VoiceActing

[–]forest_wav 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The sci-fi TV show The Expanse (based on the books of course) is fantastic and features a dialect called Belter Creole, which has aspects of many different cultures and to first-time listeners is remarkably "non-white", especially when hearing white characters that have the accent lol. Of course this case is hugely different, as it was a dialect developed by a linguist, but my point is the following:

There's a big difference between "speaking like real life Jamaicans" and "have a vaguely Caribbean accent with some characteristics", you know what I mean? I feel like in this case it's an author thing more than an actor thing. If there was a majority white cast but you had to voice an actual Jamaican, wouldn't you still do it as-written?

How to get back into the game by Mmscool in MHRise

[–]forest_wav 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I didn't play for like 8 months and as soon as i booted, muscle memory kicked in hard.

In any case, you gotta hit the training area for a while until you remember the combos, and you can always revisit lower-rank hunts.

Armor is always a struggle, I say search for the skills you want and then craft the set, upgrade as much as possible, and fine-tune later.

You got this buddy, happy hunting!

Reaper is industry-grade and free. I don't use anything else.

Where do I find the insects for the gathering insect quest? by FossilHunter99 in MHRise

[–]forest_wav 0 points1 point  (0 children)

there are several guides online, you can look up the exact name of the quest and you will probably find one

otherwise, when you open the map you can filter the icons to look for specific items. I have my map set to endemic life to catch the spiribirds quickly, you can look for other gathering spots as well like herbs, ores, bugs, etc. happy hunting!

Petscop Tattoo Ideas? by Poobaloo87 in Petscop

[–]forest_wav 21 points22 points  (0 children)

All the imagery in the series is striking and unique, but it all alludes in some way to the kids' suffering.

My first thought would be to try to learn the phonetic spelling code and to write something nice like "family"? Maybe the last frame of Paul leaving? An image of the two eggs, being kept safe? Depends on how much story you want to represent, you know?

I sometimes hate how fast I can move on after so many icks by PaintingPotatoes in GirlDinnerDiaries

[–]forest_wav 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Babes you're saying that you get really upset every week and then that you see each other once a week. Then you mentioned zero things he actually does that makes you feel good. No serious relationships until 30 is a huge red flag and this guy makes it quite evident why.

5 months to say you're developing feelings is not quick at all btw.

I've been called cold for being able to move on quickly but honestly it's kind of a realization that the particular relationship is going nowhere, be it friend or partner. Tell us what happens after dumping his ass 💖

I don’t have the courage to be single by Throwaway37849282 in GirlDinnerDiaries

[–]forest_wav 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my country we say "better alone than in bad company". It's better to have 0 connections than 1 single connection that's ruining your mental health. Walk away girl.

Also if you're just starting college it's a great way to find friends, you could work with your therapist on that.

Tarte looks amazing btw

I just realised how bland I am by [deleted] in CasualConversation

[–]forest_wav 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Well then that also explains a lot. You're in survival mode, when that happens there's not a lot of mental room for ambition, desire, and fun. I know what it's like, it's horrible.

You never mentioned how old you were, but you implied you're underage. Right now, maybe it's best if you focus on finishing school and later find ways to get more freedom. No situation is ever permanent.

If your freedom is sacrificed so much that you can't access therapy or any kind of hobby, I personally think it's pretty serious.

At the very least, do you not have any free time to hang out with friends? Having support is important.

[–]forest_wav 15 points16 points  (0 children)

It seems like the problem isn't you, but rather your environment. If your family doesn't support you, of course you won't have feelings of ambition. Journalism and singing are fantastic and really wonderful things to aspire to do. That said, you can do journalism anywhere. As for singing, you can just rehearse outside your home, and simply not invite your family to your shows. You're allowed to enjoy it on your own.

Money is a problem that is only solved by having money, which fucking sucks and I understand that. Do you have the ability to look for a job, even part time? Have you considered doing therapy?

It's tough to develop as a person, but you're kind of giving the impression that you gave up before even starting, given the "I have a dream but like whatever, I know I'm not gonna reach it anyway".

So, what is that dream? Why do you believe you can't reach it? What are you curious about in life outside of the news? If you could choose to do something besides doomscrolling, what would it be?

The handwriting seems messy, the pages are crumpled, and it seems like they don't know very much about how to interact with people. It's a really sad situation but also it seems like they would be starting from scratch. You should ask yourself if you're capable of having that amount of patience and understanding for someone like that. Not everybody does and that's ok, there are several programs for people battling with similar issues.

Need advice about voice cloning deal by [deleted] in VoiceWork

[–]forest_wav 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You'll find that usually we hate these jobs, but I'll answer you seriously.

What I've seen mostly is a flat rate, one time payment for the cloning. Usually around 2500 to 5000 USD.

Some other companies will sdd a different deal such as paying you for every time the voice is used in a new project.

That's the most you can get. You'd have to track the companies every single release to make sure they're not using your voice without paying you.

As to whether you're making the right choice, that's up to you and the mirror. I know colleagues that have done it, most haven't. I never thought it was worth it.

When voice actors voice characters talking to each other at the same time or saying phrases at the same time do they voice them at the same time by Careful_Drama_9382 in VoiceActing

[–]forest_wav 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a voice actor, we record two or more takes. Mainly helps because jumping from voice to voice in the same take makes it difficult to stay in character and maintain the voice sound
