working with multiple voices would make it sound much more engaging as well as making much more complex and time consuming for whoever is editing it. I for one wouldn't mind giving it a go. we should give it a trial run and see how it all works out and how many people are willing to take part (voice acting one part would be less work than taking on a whole light novel).

anyone who is interested in trying it shoot me a message and we'll see where to go from there.

I see everyone's interested! I'll jump into this as well, so where do we start? It actually does sound much more interesting and less monotone than the current one.

However, I don't know if the VAs are able to understand the LNs well known to be able to convey the emotions and things like that.

the VAs should probably read the LN before they start recording so as to understand that sort of thing. it also wouldn't hurt to have them read from a full version of the LN with their part highlighted.

I agree, the VA should read the proposed LN before so that they could performance well. Anyway, as SilentZephyr said, let's choose a LN: it might be one well-known so many people get interested in the project and give their opinion.

Why not Hakomari? I'll be happy to participate in leadership positions.

Well, I haven't been on for a while and looks like some new things have happened. I don't know who's managing the the multi-VA project but I would like to help out if possible. Although I'm not sure how well known it is, if you're looking for a novel with a small cast this one might be good, https://www.baka-tsuki.org/project/inde ... tain_pilot , and considering it only has one book it might be better as a trial run as opposed doing a series with multiple volumes. Just my opinion though.

another possibility would be no game no life, the first volume only has four main characters , five if you count tet who doesn't do or say much.

Ah, this week and the next no releases all out. maybe i really should of just kept to one releases every 2-3 days....ah well.

Well done everyone and thank you for contributing.

You know what would be a good idea? Doing voice over for teasers or projects with low interest, such as the first chapter will be enough, just to generate awareness.

I haven't been updating the page with my progress but it's being done, but I'm hesitating over whether I should continue because of the suggestion that we should come up with a recording team with people to act out each role. Should I wait for that, or continue?

it probably would help if we got a cast together so they can begin to read the LN and possibly start recording their parts
