And a quick word from Adam. It may not be perfect, but it's because he's got no teeth.

wow, you were prolific, Craig :thumbs: and Touchstone is hilarious :lol: got out the whole comedy repertoire for that one ;)

Adam didn't sound too toothless (you could have gotten into a barfight before recording him to do a bit of method-acting, after all what's a couple of teeth ? :mrgreen: )

All parts PL ok except for those 2:

Touchstone 5.1.
> at 1:48: "give me your hand" – you say "thou hand" which sounds odd (thy hand would have been ok)

Touchstone 5.4.
> at 0:56: "to take that that no man else will" – there is one "that" missing, which makes the sentence a bit incomplete. It probably means "to take that, which no man else will". I agree "that, that" sounds a bit strange too :hmm: but it's probably what is meant. If you make a break between them it will be comprehensible I guess

Thanks !

Touchstone 5_1 and 5_4 corrected.

5_4 was a mistake in an one of my edits.

Hope it OK now.

Cheers

Here is my Oliver role--and he is nothing like that other Oliver character that I read in my Dickens project! :wink:

I found that the trick here was that the angry voice from the first two scenes had to be much nicer sounding for the later scenes since he's basically a villain who later has a change of heart.

yes you make the transition excellently clear :thumbs: I loved the angry and wickedness in the first scene, it's almost strange that he would change his tune so much later on. But love can do that ;)

Wonderful job, Brad, thank you !!!

1.1., 3.1. and 5.2. are already PL ok.

One note for 4.3. though:

> at 4:21: "That he in sport doth call his Rosalind" – here you pronounce it rhyming with "kind". Was that intentional ? Because usually we rhyme it with "pinned", except in the poetry scene

Adam, Touchstone and Frederick, all PL ok, thank you Craig. And I agree about Duke Fred, he is a nasty guy. :evil: But your upper-class nasal voice is absolutely brilliant in this role ! :thumbs:

That means Act II Scene 2 is ready to edit already. This was one of Tomas' sections. :)
And Act III Scene 1 as well, which is mine, I will get to it as soon as I have my PL backlog down a bit :?

actually I saw how short 3.1. was so I quickly assembled it right away :lol: If someone could PL it for me, that would be great.

I think these are my remaining parts.

A couple of issues......

I'm not sure if I am supposed to be singing in 4_2 as the Forester. If so, is there a tune?

I know that you need the DS file from me. Is this pre scripted or should I just read my Characters from the script? I'm sorry, I think I ask this question every time. :oops:

thank you for the PL ok, Craig !!
the duke sounds a bit mumbling like he lost his teeth :lol: but I like the performance :thumbs:

2.7. and 5.4. already PL ok

PL note for 2.1. though:

> at 1:40: "did he not moralize this spectacle ?" – you say "de-moralize"

:lol: Tomas sent you an email with details :) for the moment I set the Forester to PL notes because of the missing song. BTW is "Lord" the forester ? Why did we not call him Lord ? :hmm:
