The Book of Acts from The Bible, King James Version.

Peppersnoodles93 has adopted this abandoned project.
The Acts of the Apostles, also known as The Book of Acts, is the fifth book of the New Testament. It follows the 4 Gospel accounts not only in order but in chronology. As the Gospels end with the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, Acts begins with the 11 Apostles His other disciples embarking on the adventure of following Him and fulfilling his Great Commission (see Matthew 28:16-20 for the most commonly cited version of the Great Commission.) Though several heroes of the early Christian church are included in this narrative, much of the book tells the story of the Apostle Paul from his conversion to Christianity to his missionary journeys. (Introduction by Jason Justice)
  • Target completion date: March 1st, 2011
  • Text source (only read from this text!): http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/8044
  • Type of proof-listening required (Note: please read the PL FAQ): Standard

    This project is now complete! All audio files can be found on our catalog page: https://librivox.org/bible-kjv-nt-05-acts-version-2-by-king-james-version-kjv/

    IMPORTANT - soloist, please note: in order to limit the amount of languishing projects (and hence the amount of files on our hard-pressed server), we ask that you post an update at least once a month in your project thread, even if you haven't managed to record anything. If we don't hear from you for three months, your project will be opened up to a group project as soon as a Book Coordinator can be found. Files you have completed will be used in this project. If you haven't recorded anything yet, your project will be removed from the forum (contact any admin to have it re-instated).

    Magic Window:

  • The reader will record the following at the beginning and end of each file:
    No more than 0.5 to 1 second of silence at the beginning of the recording!

    Start of recording (Intro)
    • "Chapter [number] of Acts from The Holy Bible, King James Version. - This is a LibriVox recording. All LibriVox recordings are in the public domain. For more information, or to volunteer, please visit: librivox DOT org"
    • If you wish, say:
      "Recording by Jason Justice"
    • Say:
      "Acts from The Holy Bible, King James Version. Chapter #"

    For the second and all subsequent sections, you may optionally use the shortened form of this intro disclaimer:

    • If you wish, say:
      "Recording by Jason Justice"
    • Only if applicable, say:
      "[Chapter title]"
    End of recording
    • At the end of the section, say:
      End of [Chapter]"
    • If you wish, say:
      "Recording by Jason Justice"
    • At the end of the book, say (in addition):
      "End of Acts from The Holy Bible, King James Version."

    There should be 5 seconds silence at the end of the recording, or 10 seconds for files longer than 30 minutes.

As mentioned in Book Suggestions, I'll MC.

I would suggest making the file name "acts_##_kjv" with the # being the section numbers. Also, I changed your ID tags slightly - the version goes in the author tag. It's up to you if you want to put "from The Holy Bible" in the album, or if just "Acts" is sufficient.

Be back shortly with the MW...

I'm all for shorter file names! Let's go with your idea: acts_##_kjv

I think you're right about the album info, too. Let's just go with "Acts."

Thanks so much, Tricia!! I'm very much looking forward to this project!

No files to post yet but I just wanted to let you know I recorded chapters 1 and 2 (section 1) last night and just need to edit it and upload it. I'll of course let you know when that's up. I also am reading from the Gutenberg online version just for simplicity sake. The numbers being lengthier it's not as much of a distraction as I thought it would be.

Hope all is well! More soon!

Tonight I also recorded sections 2, 3 and 4 which I will edit as soon as I can.

Thanks!

Great!

You can enter the sections into the magic window, so potential PL's can find them easier. :)

Cool. Should I post someplace for a PL?

Also, I'm sorry but I am kind of drawing a blank... how do I edit the magic window? :-)

Once you get a couple/few sections up, you can advertise for a PL. (That's my preference, anyway - I like to give people something to do instead of just one section.) You can post it over in Listeners/Editors Wanted. There's a thread there at the top of the list that says how to do it.

To edit the window - click on the link directly beneath the window. I should have sent you by PM your login and password to the window admin area - the user name starts with "User-" if that helps. If you need me to, I can resend the link to the instructions on how to edit the window.
