  1. ARTISTS ARE STORYTELLERS Characters talk. Stories have characters

  2. We have already created characters using a turntable effect:

  3. You can see yours at: • http://www.nycanimation.professorklein.com/index.php/Character-Design

  4. Characters are part of a story. • In animation, we don’t tell who our characters are. We show who they are. One way doing that is by dialogue. • What does your character want to say? • Once you have decided what your character is going to say, you need to record the dialogue. • Is the voice going to be yours, or will you use a friend? If you’re a female, who has created a male character, you’re going to need some help!

  5. Using Audacity A quick overview of the Audacity application controls: • “Rewind to Start” • “Play” • “Record” • “Pause” • “Start” • “Stop” • “Rewind to End”

  6. Recording a voice clip with Audacity. • Click the Record button. • Start speaking into the microphone. • When you are done speaking, click the Stop button. • As you record, the red “level” bar should move corresponding to your voice, and a voice waveform should be recording across the Audacity screen. If it is not, recheck the microphone settings to make sure they are correct. If the microphone “level” is set to 0, nothing will be recorded.

  7. To play a voice clip... • Click the Rewind button. • Click the Playbutton. • When you have heard enough or the clip has completed, click the Stop button. • The output device “volume” controls may have to be adjusted to hear the recording play at the proper volume level.

  8. Saving the file in *.wav format. • In the File menu, click Export as WAV..., then specify (1) the destination folder and (2) the filename. Click the Save button. Now we are ready to line up the characters’ mouths with the dialogue!
