YOUR VOICE – IN THE GAME!! [Entries Closed]

Here's mine!

It’s been a while….. but here we are again for another round of Early Septembering fun and games!

Don Bradman Cricket 17 is to be released late in 2016, and yes, that’s about as good a guess as we can give right now. Is there any point in me asking that you don’t ask for a more exact release date? Probably not…. anyway, moving on, one of the most popular audio features in the original DBC was the ground announcer. At Big Ant we strive to involve the community as much as we can and want to bring some things never before done to our games, and so we thought it would be cool if we could get you guys to do localised ground announcing for us. You could be the new 12th man!!

So, the idea is, playing in Essex? Wouldn't it be nice to hear a Pommie announcer that has an accent to match the area. Delhi? How about an announcer that speaks Hindi?

We're offering you fans the chance of immortality by way of having your own voice in the game as a selectable ground announcer. If you have a microphone and think you've got what it takes, we want to hear you!

So, to business.... "How can I audition?"

1. Record yourself reading the follow lines:

"Ladies and gentlemen, hello and welcome to this one day international match between South Africa and Pakistan."

"Please give a big round of applause for the opening batsmen as they make their way out to the middle."

"End of the over - New Zealand are 208 for 2."

2. Save your recording (either as individual files per line, or as a single file) - .wav is preferable, but any common audio format is fine.

3. Attach your recording(s) to this thread.

4. We will get back to those shortlisted with the full announcer script!

We hope to include as many of the best voices as we can (within reason).

For non-English speakers - stay tuned! We will be releasing translated audition script soon.

For the rest of you, we look forward to hearing what you've got!

Cheers,

Ross.

PS: Yeah, I know, it's not Friday, we'll own them again soon, but there's this guy that kinda owns tomorrow so I decided to get in early...

Here is my localised ground announcing recording. Im from New Zealand with a semi-strong New Zealand accent.

Hello Sir. Please find my recording. Sorry for slight disturbance in audio. I am from India and can also do commentary in Hindi. Thanks.

 

[Deadman110]

DONE

@MattW is there anyway you can add wav to previewable/playable stuff in the forums.

Not that I'm aware of.

I've added a few more file types though so people can more directly upload their recordings.

Would be really worth you trying to get a clearer recording - it's hard to hear your voice properly in that clip. You're also welcome to upload a sample in Hindi - just say the equivalent of the lines in the first post.

Waiting for the game won't be the same without it now will it?
