Woes of a Voice Actor! Room echo! blog - DragonNOR

Heya everybody!

If you read my last blog, you might remember that I talked about the room echo in my apartment and that I had no space where I could realistically make good recordings.
I made plans of how to make something custom in the hopes that it would turn out cheap, but buying the materials needed would eventually cost almost as much as just buying a collapsable echo dampener screen of about 2 metres in height and 5 in length with angles.

I could practically hear my wallet scream in agony from my pocket as it envisioned having its guts of 500 and 1000 NOK bills get torn out of it.
In truth I would probably have used a card, but it wouldn't make for such a hilarious mental image.

It was as I was doing housework, that the solution practically fell into my lap.
It was so simple, and so straight in front of my nose, I almost dropped the towels I had been stacking and just peered into the walk in closet with mindless disbelief.

There is practically NO reverb in that space. None. Zip. 
And if that for some reason becomes a problem, I can slide the door slightly open to compensate.

Ladies and gentlemen.

Let the recording begin >:D
