Inuyasha, eh?
Egh... the only characters you have posted that I even stand a chance of voicing is Sango and maaayyyyybe Shippo. And since you're uncertain of what you want for the former, I can't record anything to try out.
By the way, are some of those descriptions more what you want the personalities to be like or what you actually want the voices to sound at least vaguely like (case in point: Inuyasha, Sesshomaru, and Myōga)? And what do you mean by Kagome's "signature yelling"?

Just something I'd like to point out, and ask:
If you're recording from different locations, wouldn't sound quality, background noise, and microphone quality all clash with each other in the movie itself?

Inu Yasha, eh... Well, the show went downhill for me after the 3rd season at least 3 years back, so I don't really remember the characters... Not to mention I've only watched the local dub version.
I'll try to keep up with you if I can.
Though, I was hoping to be that tiny mosquito guy who rides on a carabao and likes to hicky Kagome... Forgot his name, though.

Mixing for an Abridged Series is basically editing stuff in and out. Sort of what people do for various AMVs, except a little smoother, better looking, and humourous. As for voices, I particularly don't care who's who so long as they do my Abridged vision of their voice. Now that I think about it, I'll post a brief description of what the Abridged characters sound like, you try to voice act it, and I'll judge who's best. I'll post some of the main characters for now and post more character voice descriptions later. Brief Abridged characters voice descriptionsInuYasha: Solid Snake Kagome: Always does her "signature" yelling Miroku: Abridged Yami Yugi Sango: Still thinking ^^; Shippo: Young boy who sounds like a girl Sesshomaru: Ocelot from MGS series Jaken: Igor Myōga: Navi Naraku: Also still thinking ^^; I could do InuYasha or Myōga (WTF?) i've never seen the anime but if I can't do the voice overs, like I said I don't have a microphone yet, I WILL do the editing. However I only have 2 months of Sony Vegas. EDIT: For those who watch family guy I can also do a good Quagmire impression ^_^ but that is probably not what your looking for.

To answer some of your concerns Kay, maybe you're right and I should change a couple of them. After hearing Giga's impressions, no offense to you or anything, I'm thinking a lot of character impersonations of video game characters and other Abridged characters seems like a very bad idea.
Maybe I should just make sure everyone sounds somewhat like they do on the show. Although I still think, the voice description matches them almost perfectly. After all after some time of thinking, Koga seems more like a Solid Snake voice than InuYasha. Other voice descriptions are just made out to make the Abridged versions funnier: like ol' Sess' with a Southern accent.
Kagome's voice was supposed to be the most unique. You know how in the show she's almost always yell out "InuYasha" when he's in trouble? Well, she, was supposed to always do that in the Abridged version except without saying said title character's name all the time.
Tell you what, since you seem to know a lot about making videos, with you being our fearless leader and all, why don't you be my head partner? That way you can help me with the script and all the other complexicated stuff and take over if I somehow lose interest. Not that I am going to lose interest sometime soon, this idea has been in my head for too long, like half my other ideas. I'll delete my original thoughts on the voice descriptions and wait for your response. If you say no, it's okay, I'm sure I can find another partner.

Well, she, was supposed to always do that in the Abridged version except without saying said title character's name all the time. Basically what you're saying is that Abridged Kagome pretty much yells 75% of what she says in such a manner? Tell you what, since you seem to know a lot about making videos, with you being our fearless leader and all, why don't you be my head partner?

I appreciate the offer, but I have enough to deal with in my own projects without helping someone with a major part of another. I'm just looking for a position that won't end up in a major ongoing involvement. Just something I can do in an hour or two and I know from experience that recording and editing sounds for a ten-minute clip is a quick job.

Basically what you're saying is that Abridged Kagome pretty much yells 75% of what she says in such a manner? Pretty much. I think it would be funny if she did this. A somewhat ripoff of Rei from Sailor Moon Abridged, but funny nonetheless. As for Mollet, since Kay has basically said she is like an Abridger and has other stuff to do, I'll be glad to take you on as a partner. I already have ideas for the teaser trailer and it involves this "Abridged War" that's going on. Unfortunately, I haven't even started writing it down yet because, like Kay, I'm preoccupied. Once I'm done writing the script, can you beta it for me? Maybe add some jokes of your own for future scripts since mine are somewhat low in stock? If so, thanks.

Wow sure =D. I just got a microphone today too and it's a good one at that, I might have a testing of my voice put onto youtube or something but i'm not sure. Just one thing i'm going away next week to my caravan again. EDIT: Here is a test of my voice through a mic: www.mediafire.com/?ivpv5kzgzae

Okay... I'm finally done for the script of what I call the "Ultimate Ownage Trailer" for InuYasha Abridged. Last call for voice actors who want to voice act in the parody before I send it to Mollet to get his two cents in. I'll wait a week, maybe two if I'm busy, before I send it off to be butchered. Oh, and by the way to Kay: there's a part in this script in particular where you have to voice act and it requires some of your animation skills as well. Hope you enjoy it when you read it.

I'd still love to do this. I've just been ignoring things for a bit.
Got lines for the trailer? You've heard that my voice is flexible, so should I do more tryouts, or just go with what you describe?

Funny, I was just watching Inuyasha a couple of hours ago. My main tactic is editing scripts. So if you have a good script, I could probably check it for laugh factor. Aside from Kayorei being your right-hand man... er... worker, I could definitely be a left-hand.
I can do voices too... Probably the best I could do are Myoga and Inuyasha. As for a test, my videos are chalk-full of voice acting straight from the Liberati era.
*looks at Barrellman's post*
Quagmire would fit Miroku pretty well, I suppose. Perverted Monk-Perverted...Dude. Works well.
And in the Thunder Brothers arc, using a "LAZER" joke whenever Manten does the lightning blasts from his mouth is pretty funny.

First of all, Turbo. if you haven't read earlier, Kay isn't my main assistant due to a busy schedule and Barrel/Mollet volunteered to fill in the spot.
Although I would appreciate it if you helped with the script, after all most of my material on jokes is for single episodes only or revolving around the plot or various characters for a short amount of time. Take Miroku for instance: my first thought was to put him in an Abridged Yami Yugi, but a Quagmire voice suits him as well too, now that I think about it.
The reason for an Abridged Yami Yugi voice for Miroku, I'll divulge on later, but the Thunder Brothers "firin' ma lazer" joke would be pretty good. Glenn/Turbo, welcome to the script editing crew. Expect the first script to not have a whole lot of funny or good jokes in it because it's merely a trailer for things to come... and to announce that we are involved in this wacky Abridged war.
