Sound Recording

Today we were in the sound booth recording all the voice work that would be needed for the game. Due to his relative expertise in audio production, Pat would be working his magic with the sound equipment. Here's what we recorded:

- "JAGA" Splash screen
- Jaga Rally Theme Tune
- Voicing for menus
- Voicing for Driving Assistant

"JAGA" Splash screen

Simply put, we wanted to recreate this:

To do this all three of us, myself, Tim and Pat grouped around the microphone and with the help of a classmate and a guide tone we made the recording.

Jaga Rally Theme Tune

After this, and still with the three of us in-booth, we recorded our own version of the classic Sega Rally theme tune:

You can listen to our version, which includes the "JAGA" splash screen, by clicking here!

Overall i think Pat did a fantastic job with this.

Voicing for Menus and Driving Assistant

After this it was just me left in the sound booth as i had been elected to provide voice recordings for both the menus and the race assistant (The person in rally driving who reads track information to the driver.) I was asked to use a slightly gravelly enthusiastic american voice, you can hear one of the many lines i recorded in the link above, just before the music starts ("JAGA RALLY!".) You can listen to more of them below, I feel that I could have done better for some of them but over all i'm happy.

Listen to a collection of the voice work here!

I greatly enjoyed the voice-acting/singing experience, I have even been commended by my teammates who went as far as saying i should 'look into doing some VA (voice acting) work", and while i think i have some improving to do, i have to say i'm tempted!
