Ok, here's some advice.
Aquisition
- First, decide what you want them to say (see Style).
- At this point, you might want to clear it with me. I don't do certain topics. Like racist remarks, or getting your freinds to have sex, or anything really harmful. I'll do funny stuff, like then getting high and stuff, but not harmful stuff.
- Then, record them (them not knowing), with you steering the conversation around to the topics you want. PLease use specific words when talking to them. They will likely echo you in your answer.
- If not, try again.
- Cut out your voice when you send it to me.
Style and subject
- Consider what kind of thing you want them to say.
- Is it something that they would never say?
- Is it something everyone claims they hate?
- Is it something that runs agains their very nature (like, Bill Gates giving all his money and Microsoft to Greenpeace)
- If the answer is yes to all the above, be warned: This may rebound on you. There was a recent incident involving me and Ben Coote's Fifth Favourite TV programme that nearly trapped me into the "getting beat up when I'm 16 cycle".
- If the answers are all right so far, think: will I accept this?
- And will you think this is worth it?
File Storage
- It's best to send me the best (i.e. the biggest) file quality. Don't bother downsizing it so I can download it or whatever: I'll worry about this end.
- Cut out all unnessessary chunks if you can. This includes chairs creaking, your voice, cats meowling (actually, leave pets in.), big, loud noises. Music in the background will mess this up completely.
