Date: 2011-11-06 11:31 pm (UTC)I recorded my first podfic before we called it podfic, kinda like the Shoebox Project Aloud thing I guess (though I was out of the HP/Marauders loop and never heard of it) - it was in 2002. I only released it to a few select friends because the author hadn't given me permission. I remember asking, but she never answered... she gave me permission this year when I posted about it and she discovered the whole thing though! Which is hilarious. :D
I am having so much fun listening to this omg :D :D

"no matter ho much you emote, you're going to be emoting too much for some people, not enough for some people, and perfectly for some people."
THIS IS SO TRUE AND I AM SO GLAD IT WAS SAID SO CLEARLY. :D

Date: 2011-11-07 12:30 am (UTC)It's basically the moral for me of podfic fandom's whole foray into critiquefests, the critical feedback exchange and beta/critique mailing list, and the early days of podficmeta. All these things where we were trying to figure out how to make podfic objectively better until we had to throw up our hands and admit that we were running around in circles without getting anywhere, because podfic tastes are just so incredibly subjective.
(P.S. You should totally accept my advances to be twitter friends so we can talk about podfic all the tiiiiime. I think knight_tracer DMed you a while back and explained which twitter name was me?)

Date: 2011-11-08 12:20 am (UTC)I got about half way through yours this morning before having to head off to school (only half way since I kept needing to pause to write more comments, you'll have an essay by the end, I swear).
Although, I'm a little horrified to realize that I'm not going to have time to check out anyone's stuff till after the week is over, judging by the amount of mod work there is O_O So it might take me a bit to finish listening to your podcast. :)

Date: 2011-11-07 11:30 am (UTC)Occasionally there is a story which I must record—my favourite that I've ever done, because the story is completely awesome, is this one, but mostly I record stories that are either fantasy AUs or AUs set in the UK. And this is a bit limiting.
How would people feel about AI stories read in an English accent? And/or, can you direct me towards any 'accent-free' stories which I could have a go at?

DOOO EEEET!!
I think having different accents in podfic is awesome and amazing (there's a whole
