Paris has been often described, by travelers, by artists, by savants, by friends and by enemies, yet it was after reading most of the works descriptive of Paris that I felt how much there was still to be written, if not about Paris, at least about the Parisians. (excerpt from the book)
Type of proof-listening required (Note: please read the PL FAQ): standard
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 may be opened up to a group project if a Book Coordinator is 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 see if it can be re-instated). Please don't download or listen to files belonging to projects in process (unless you are the BC or PL). Our servers are not set up to handle the greater volume of traffic. Please wait until the project has been completed. Thanks!
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 The Ins and Outs of Paris or Paris by Day and Night. 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 [your name], [city, your blog, podcast, web address]"
Say: "The Ins and Outs of Paris or Paris by Day and Night, by Julie De Marguerittes. [Chapter]"
For the second and all subsequent sections, you may optionally use the shortened form of this intro disclaimer:
"Chapter [number] of The Ins and Outs of Paris or Paris by Day and Night by Julie De Marguerittes. This LibriVox recording is in the Public Domain."
If you wish, say:
"Recording by [your name], [city, your blog, podcast, web address]"
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 [your name], [city, your blog, podcast, web address]"
At the end of the book, say (in addition): "End of The Ins and Outs of Paris or Paris by Day and Night, by Julie De Marguerittes. "
There should be 5 seconds silence at the end of the recording.
Example filename insandoutsofparis_##_demarguerittes_128kb.mp3 (all lower-case) where ## is the section number (e.g. insandoutsofparis_01_demarguerittes_128kb.mp3)
Transfer of files (completed recordings) Please always post in this forum thread when you've sent a file. Also, post the length of the recording (file duration: mm:ss) together with the link.
Hi!
Yes I am going to record this one as soon as I finish The Vineyard and I would LOVE to have you be my DPL...I think I need an MC first though.
Thank you!!
Celine
I have a quick question. At the beginning of every chapter under the title is a breakdown of all the content in that chapter. Should I read that or not...am worried the person listening will wonder what's going on.
Can you take a look when you have a minute and let me know please.
