Check out James Arnold Taylor's YouTube channel. Several years ago, he uploaded some videos where he recorded for Star Wars: The Clone Wars over an internet call from a makeshift studio he set up at his house rather than go into the studio to demonstrate how he records his voice work. If he can do that with a DIY setup at his house, a more professional studio should be able to do the same, if not more.TheBlackPaladin wrote:I think part of that may be that remote recording technology has just reached the point where they don't have to stick solely to voice actors in the Dallas area anymore.

Re: "Dragon Ball Super" FUNimation Dub Official Discussion Thread
I'm familiar with the video you're talking about, but that's not quite an accurate description. He was recording a promo for the show in-character as Obi-Wan, not actual dialogue. It's the norm in the VO industry to record promos from a home studio (for the most part), but if you're playing an actual character in the content of an episode, it's the norm to go into a professional studio.Scsigs wrote:Check out James Arnold Taylor's YouTube channel.

Re: "Dragon Ball Super" FUNimation Dub Official Discussion Thread
This might be slightly off topic, but god damn is the first half of Episode 62 ugly. Almost original episode 5 levels. Not only is all the art off, the animation is stiff and barely existent, but the content is rubbish as well.
Trunks comes off this massive transformation (which is already one of my most hated part of the series) and immediately gets owned by Black with a simple kick. Really terrible.
As for the dub work this week I think it continues to be of a very high quality. I don't remember Chi Chi getting on my nerves so much in past arcs though. Could just be her dialogue is written to be more whiny but her voice also seems to be straining a lot more and be a higher pitch or something.

Re: "Dragon Ball Super" FUNimation Dub Official Discussion Thread
Chichi's VA has been having problems between sounding like she usually does & having a more strained rasp in her voice since Super's dub started. It doesn't make any sense to me, since Kai TFC's dub doesn't have it & it was only recorded 2-3 years prior to Super's. Maybe it's how Sabat's directing her nowadays, but she never had that before & it's, honestly, off-putting when she suddenly doesn't have it anymore.nato25 wrote:This might be slightly off topic, but god damn is the first half of Episode 62 ugly.

I mean, Kara Edwards has also been inconsistent in her Goten voice since Super's dub started too. She constantly struggles between sounding like a little boy & a little girl when it comes to Goten, which is definitely weird since I loved her more softer approach to Goten in Kai TFC & Battle of Gods, plus the newer games, but it sounds like Sabat's not hearing the difference when directing her in Super, so they don't do retakes of the off lines. It's similar to Schemmel doing Goku Black, where he's either Posh, lightly British, uppercrust, or just doing a deeper take on his normal Goku voice depending on the episode & scene. It's inconsistent as all hell. You'd think the actors would know when they're being off too, but I guess not.

Re: "Dragon Ball Super" FUNimation Dub Official Discussion Thread
I thought Cranz performance this episode was great. You genuinely felt Chichi's care for Goku in this episode, she wasn't anywhere as annoying in this episode at all.
Re: "Dragon Ball Super" FUNimation Dub Official Discussion Thread
Seeing how no one's discussing it, I'm guessing nothing noteworthy happened in the dub last night?
Re: "Dragon Ball Super" FUNimation Dub Official Discussion Thread
Oh, the dub was great like always. It's just that the episode was just uneventful in terms of the dub doing anything noteworthy other than being great. The next truly noteworthy thing won't happen until 66, I believe.shadd21 wrote:Seeing how no one's discussing it, I'm guessing nothing noteworthy happened in the dub last night?

Re: "Dragon Ball Super" FUNimation Dub Official Discussion Thread
Prince Vegeta > Vegeta-sama.
But yes great episode, finally get that Angel knowledge drop totally forgot the dub hadn't had it yet lol. That moment when Goku and Vegeta slammed Zamasu and Black respectively at the same time was very satisfying. Only nitpick this episode is wish they had Vegeta call Goku a "fool/idiot" rather than "clown" when beating on Black, I hate whenever they use "clown" and they started bringing it back in Kai TFC /:
I have no idea why people blame next episodes seal on Goku when Roshi clearly here didn't give it to him nor even after be like "Goku you forgot this" just sat there smug.

Personally like ‘clown’.

They blame him for both. And he left the jar in the machine because he was trying to see if Trunks was still alive and he thought Vegeta had it. Foolish, but fans took it to new levels like Goku was brain dead.

Re: "Dragon Ball Super" FUNimation Dub Official Discussion Thread
Eric Vale continues to get worse as Trunks and Schemmel continues to get better at Black.
The entire Super dub has been inconsistent to me. Every single actor is off and on every other line. Schemmel will go from phoning it in as Goku to giving a god-tier intense performance a minute later, Sabat will go from overdoing his delivery in one scene to then nailing it the next. I don't know if it's the voice direction by Sabat or what, because I know all of these people have talent. I hear it every week, slipping out in every other line.Scsigs wrote:Chichi's VA has been having problems between sounding like she usually does & having a more strained rasp in her voice since Super's dub started.
