KHAJIIT VOICE AUDITIONS

Submitted by Smitehammer on

This is where you can upload your Khajiit voice auditions.  Please keep this thread only for auditions - feedback and other comments relating to voice work can be posted in the hub thread.

Sample Lines:

http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Morrowind:Dro'Zhirr   Heirlooms? Hah! Dro'zhirr has found plenty of heirlooms. They just seem to fall into his pockets! In fact, Dro'zhirr just found a few new pieces earlier today. Took them from some Nord woman. Cried like a baby, she did. "Oh my precious jewelry!"   http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Morrowind:Dahleena   You want evidence? Dahleena tells you where to get it. Odral Helvi has a chest on the second floor of the Governor's Hall. Unlock the chest and you will find a book. A record book. Bring this book back to your friend and watch his eyes when he smiles.  

Voice Description:

 For Khajiit, try going with a more smoky voice like was in Morrowind, for both males and females.  The lilt is a mixture between Spanish and Arabic - almost like Morrocco.

For Khajiit names are an honorific. If they're slaves they refer to themselves only as 'Khajiit', but if they are not slaves they use their own name, and they relish saying it.  They savor their names, holding them out just a bit longer.

Our Khajiit will have rolling Rs and pronounce J as the French 'J'.  Also, they should emphasize short 'i' and long 'ee' sounds a bit more than other vowels.  If you can, try adding some uvular trills for purring in a 'greeting' line, to show approval. These are similar to the rolling R, but you use your uvula to make a warmer, more throaty sound. Not everyone can do them, apparently.

I like what I hear. Picking out particular voices for a khajiit mod I'm working on. On the note of voice-acting quality, I semi-agree. Having gone through the struggle myself, the quality of the recording device/microphone is a large part of it. Looking into it for my own potential voice acting, I discovered that music stores often sell mics as well, varying in purpose of recording instruments clearly, to recording speech and/or lyrics.

Personally, I'm aiming for the words/lyrics mic, which can be found rather cheap at about $60 for a high-quality mic. Depending on additional features, they can quickly reach $200 for models with additional features. The quality of the microphones certainly encourage those seeking voices to keep track of those voiceactors. (I'm building a list of Khajiit voices as we speak :P)

Hey guys!!  :D   I'm new here, but I've been in the mod scene for years, and I've also been lurking around this site for a long time.  You might have seen some of my voice work on Interesting NPCs.  Anyway...I like khajiit, so I figured I would try out as one.  xD

Here is my audition for a Khajiit! I did Dro'Zhirr's "heirloom" line, and also I did 3 takes of this, all in different styles so you can listen with different perspectives. Not sure what to think of them but I hope they're good! 

I did one with quite a lot of rasp (influence from M'raaj-Dar from Oblivion) and the other two not as much. I'd be happy with any Khajiit in the game, but I liked Dro'Zhirr's dialouge. Enjoy anyway :)

The sound quality isn't very good but I could fix it eventually, I just focused on the voice.

As one of my favorite races, doing a recording for the Khajit was a lot of fun. Here's my take on the sample! Criticism is welcome!

Khajiit Auditions

I chose Dahleena's line and included two lines from Skyrim as well.

 

(Yes, I realise now Dahleena is a female part but I had already done the line.)

Mass Reply

Sorry I’m not able to go into as much depth as I try to one-on-one.  I have a lot of voices to listen to, and so the feedback will be short and to-the-point.

 

Saber

Sound quality is a bit better with the new mic, but there’s still a lot of background noise.  The voice sounds forced.  Very harsh sounding, and you run out of breath too quickly.

 

Duke

I like it.  Could go over the nuances of the voice later.  Already have you down for Redguards, but you would be good for Khajiit, too.

 

EmperorOfJustice

Sound quality is low, and the voice isn’t what we’re looking for.

 

lankyman0909

There is some noise in the background.  It sounds like you might be too far away from the mic, and recording in a room with echo?

 

Gulpy

The voice doesn’t work for Khajiit… but could you try out for Redguard?  Just hearing your intro-voice gave me an idea that you might have a good voice for Redguards.

 

Speccius

The sound quality isn’t up to par and the voice isn’t what we’re going for.

 

Yokomoko

You sound too young, and the sound quality is lacking.

 

RooksDA

Sound is booming in this one.  Might distort the sound a bit.  Other than the sound quality, you might be able to improve the way the lines are read to be more dynamic.  Khajiit are one of the most expressive races, with voices that should dance around like Antonio Banderas, almost.

 

Terigaeraq

Maybe a bit too emotive with that Nord woman imitation at the end :P  You do sound a bit young.  Not sure what you can do about that, though.

Acyst

The accent isn’t smokey Spanish-Arabic enough.

 

MrEllsworth

Voice doesn’t quite work for Khajiit.  It sounds like you’re down at the limit of your voice - too low to read the lines in anything but a monotone.

 

BerenEdain

Sound quality isn’t up to snuff, and voice doesn’t sound natural.

 

mitch111

Voice is harsh and forced.  Doesn’t have the lilt we’re going for.

 

Kazansky

Very low quality recording - difficult to even hear what you’re saying.

Hello folks! Ben Wilk here, I found out about this project and I decided to do some auditions, I will also put a link to my Vocal Demo here just in case there is a voice that you feel may work for the project.

Feel free to be harsh if needed, as long as it is constructive so that I can try to improve from it.
