@ lennaire
Welcome on this board! At the moment there don't seem to be many still active members who are interested in voice acting, so in an audition there wouldn't be many people you would have to compete with - for now you've got the job ;-)
On the other hand it wouldn't be bad to start with something just to hear something instead of only reading the scripts. It will maybe help also the scriptwriters to see how their words work when spoken out loudly.
I think, you really can choose a scene yourself. A monologue would probably be easier to realise. Glorfindel already mentioned Feanor's speech.
I'm not sure how to judge voice acting profoundly. I'm more the man for anything concerning sound, so I'm more interested in your recording settings and the quality of sound. If you have any questions about that issue, or about uploading audio files etc. don't hesitate to ask.

I volunteer for Morwen and/or Nienor, if she ends up getting any lines. I'm also willing to do any other female parts. I'm fairly good at a British accent and a light Scottish accent if they are needed.

Sounds good. You will probably get used a lot if you are willing and able, once things get really rolling; unless swarms of people come out of the wood work to vie for the many roles, which, I seriously doubt.

Well, that's why I signed on.  Not much point in joining something if I'm not going to contribute.  |

i would like to officially say i would like a role. (sorry it took a bit to get over here) i can sing, am good with learning/memorizing almost any song, (english or otherwise, with/without an accent if needed). i am better at songs with rhythms, but can still manage most anything. i would love to be a valier, but what tolkien fan girl doesn't? any role would be amazing.

So silmaril, what role specifically do you prefer? Do you have a sample of song or voice to hear?

sadly, no. i can't afford to buy any of the mics/equipment at the moment. but i am trying to network and find someone with a sound studio (wish me luck  ). as for what role, i'm not too picky. i have always loved vaire and yavanna. but i am also fond of the mortals, especially halflings, but i don't see them having a big role in this. i'm fairly open to where ever you need me, (and should should you need a voice like stitch, i can do a fairly good impersonation), i'm just not that great at male voices. |

Sorry to be gone so long but I had family business to attend to.
I can do Stitch, Jar Jar Binks, Wall-e...they are all kind of similar. If you can "bring it", go for Yavanna. She has a very prominent part in the first half of "Fall of the Noldor".

Hello,
I am quite interested in doing some voice acting. I do voice acting already for another website that turns fanfiction into audio files, so I've got experience, and I've got a pretty advanced recording program that can edit sound files, as well as the mic with which to do the recording. So, I'd be glad to jump on board whenever the time comes to start recording the screenplays.
I am a girl, but I have a pretty deep voice, and I do a lot a male characters on the other site, so I'd be happy to play anyone of either gender. If you are still taking requests though for casting, I would love to play (starting with most preferred) Sauron, Beleg Strongbow, Finrod Felagund, Feanor, Maedhros, Orome, Barahir, Thuringwethil, Aredhel, Daeron, and absolutely any other role in which you'd like to put me. Cheers!

Tell you what, SG - if you can edit up the Sauron-Finrod confrontation in LL into something other than a voiceover (because I adore that poem, and I think I argued for it at the time, but it does somewhat break the narrative flow - and it'd be awesome to see the showdown done well as actual acting), I'll voice-act Finrod to your Sauron, and we can actually make a (radio) clip of it...
In fact, once the scripts are sorted/on the way, I think that's probably our next overall step: voice-acting scenelets as a proof of concept, to show we're not just people-what-think-they're-writers...

Will do. I will check out that particular scene and see what I can do with it. That happens to be one of my favorite Leithian scenes, so yeah, I'd love to work on it. The only possible hitch is that I'm not a fantastic singer - I would probably chant the contest more than full out sing. But if that's not a problem, I shall work on it.

I'd be willing to take a stab at singing - but would probably do better at chanting! Although, off the top of my head, letting Finrod sing and Sauron chant would probably work too...
