Dude, this is the BEST demo I've heard on newgrounds. Take this in a big way cause I'm a HUUUUGE asshole when it comes to judging demos. This is solid work and if you play your cards right you definitely have a future in the industry.

MichaelJ responds:

Wow, thanks! I really appreciate it.

DId you use any filters or effects for the second to last character?

Shock-Dingo responds:

Heh, nope, didn't use any altering effects or filters on my voice for him or any character in this demo. :)

I dunno what it was... But admittedly this demo is very standouttish-- in a good way.

Keep it to a minute. The voices and readings are great, but people get the point and the characters easily.

RYKEO responds:

Thanks i'll keep that in mind for my second demo reel..
i think 2 minutes max should be ok

Brilliant

Probably the best I've heard on Newgrounds. Great range, quality and content. 'Nuff said.

Interesting Take

The thing that worked the best for this was the choice of music. The emotion of the music carried much of the monologue, which, sorry to say, was very dry and a little boring most of the time. You stammered on a few words, which, even when you're submitting to Newgrounds, is a no no. When you're voice acting you ALWAYS want to convey professionalism, you never hear stutters on the radio, right?
Your accents could also do with some work, as well as your regular diction. Your tongue gets in the way of certain words, just open your mouth a bit more when speaking.
What you've done here was not bad, it just wasn't ground-breaking either. Do keep up the work though. And your character's were hardly different. I could tell it was you no matter what kind of character you were trying to convey, like the Principal and the two bullies. So just record yourself non-stop (Like I do) and do voices in the shower. Break your comfort zone and study, study, study.

3/5
7/10 (P.S. The story was very well written, as well.)

Hehehe, good.

Haha. There are a shit load of lyrics. I do have a few complaints. The echoes of the voice tend to interrupt each other once or twice. I think I heard the word "Flaccid" in there, I had to rewind to double check. It might be a tad repetitive too. The sound overall was good though. Pretty much what's to expected from you, all good things. Keep it up. I'll keep an eye out for your work.

My advice--

Quit. Or otherwise get characters. Through out this entire "demo" you used the same voice over and over again. Nothing changed. You used the same background soundtrack. You have no emotion whatsoever.

ZeroToHero responds:

The same audio track was just for background music. And the different voices were definently there, I don't know what you were listening to. Clearly there was voice-emotion, but I wouldn't expect you to know because after looking at your profile, I didn't see any of your own work.

So sit down, shut up, or quit life.

Always a Fan

Your use of classical sounds dashed with modern beats really works well together.

Love it!

Love it!

YES! YES! AH HAAHAH!
