ah yes, good idea, I'll keep my eyes and ears peeled for it. So was it only a stage direction ? Will try to finish Act 3 tomorrow

Yes, it was a stage direction. I know Craig says it a few times, so it's just a matter of choosing a suitable one.

Thanks, Sonia. By the way, if Craig is busy right now, maybe you can find another instance where he says Ferdinand's name and make the substitution for 3.1? Maybe when you paste all of Act 3 together. Then I could just mark 3.1 PL OK.

Just a head's up: it might be good to delete the parenthetical notes in the titles before this hits the catalog.

Wow, that was a quick turnover. Thanks so much! I hope we'll be seeing you around Dramatic Works more often.

After introducing each act, I just record each line with silence between, right?

Thank you for claiming! Yes, that's the idea. You give your voice credit as "Boy, read by Melanie Jensen" and then read his lines with about 2 seconds of silence in between.

Actually, I spoke too soon LOL. I distinctly hear Craig call Ferdinand "Fernando" (like the ABBA song) at 6:32. We obviously need to correct that.

Thanks, Sonia! I may just wait for the entire Act 3 file. I'll mark this one PL OK for now, since I trust you did not omit anything.

1.1 is ready for PL. Sonia, let me know suggestions for improvement for both scenes so that I can have them fixed when I paste them together and finalize the act.

May I claim Dorilant?

Of course! Thanks for joining!

Here is the correction for Caliban: https://librivox.org/uploads/kitty/tempest_caliban_2_2.mp3 I stopped and read the line before I recorded and actually debated the pronunciation. My instinctive association of snakes with harm made me read it as "an injury" instead of the verb form of coiling/twist...

I think Act 3 may be ready to be finalized? All the roles for that act seem to be in.

Hi, I'd like to claim the role of Pinchwife. I think I'll give the '77 play a look too. Who doesn't want to see a young Helen Mirren...or old? At any age, she's a bombshell! :D Wonderful! Welcome aboard! :) And yes, the 1977 version is worth taking a look at so you have a feel for the comic styling...

Looks like all roles are in. :mrgreen: If we're diligent with editing, this may be the quickest Shakespeare we've released yet. Speaking of editing, I will claim 1.1 for now, since it requires merging the mariners. I think that may be the last scene that would need voice merging? I can claim one mor...

Thank you, Leanne!

thanks for being brave enough to tackle this controversial role, Tomas !

Well, seeing as it's one of the few male roles, I wasn't left with much choice. I will do my best with it.

I'm also in Act 5, by the way. Thought I should say so now, to prevent confusion later on.
