Hello there! This is an attempt of animating a comic very famous in my country.
I couldn't achieve to picturize the exact figures though the script remains the same. There's a guy that has just died and has his first conversation with an angel. The dialog is in greek and recorded by me and my husband. I would really need some advice about the audio while I advise YOU to be careful with your playback device while watching.
I 'd appreciate opinions, argue, advice, suggestions.
I know I have to do something with 1) the audio, 2) the backdrops that are so obvious, 3) the shadowing and lighting, 4)camera angles, movement etc.

I can write down the dialogue but let's see if the character actions are convincing enough.
There you go





Thanks anyway

Hi Lucy, I think I just addressed some of your questions on my post here : http://www.muvizu.com/Forum/topic3686-camera-set-up.aspx?p=f#post22528


As for the sound - how did you record it? Do you have an audio editor? If not, get Audacity (it's free), and boost up the volume level on the recordings.


Hope that helps. Nice colour mix, btw

Oh thanks Ziggy for your quick reply (I like Zoidberg btw!).
I'll check the topic out and I'll practise.
I recorded the dialog with an android app and as I have little experience with audio editing, I just denoised it with soundforge. I don't know if there is a way to fix this noise that comes from talking close to the microphone, or the "sounds like a cave" issue. Would you suggest purschasing a microphone? There are some other characters coming and your opinion on voice changing (maybe), that still seems normal ( I mean not like a robot or somathing like that) would be helpful as well.
Thanks, thanks, thanks, thanks

Diffidently get a microphone, and Audacity. Just remember to keep the microphone about 6-12 inches away and use a pop guard to eliminate the popping sounds on the B's and P's.

I made one by wrapping some cloth around a hanger. Also try to record in a quiet place. but Audacity can take out back ground noise.

There are some great tutorials on you tube on using Audacity and tips on voice recording.

This one helped me a lot hope it helps you as well.

Super helpful and I'll totally do it! Thanks InsaneHamster!
So I'll mark this as "checked".
Let's see what else we can do to improve this thing.
I hope you all be honest, you don't need to say things so as my feelings won't be hurt.
I really need the truth here.
Thanks againCool
