Hello everyone,

Ever wanted to be IN an anime? Well, now is your chance! This is an offical invite to anyone who wants to audition for a voice part in the upcoming fandub of the Captain Harlock movie. The story is based on episode 13. I encourage you to download it as a reference. The movie is 30 minutes long and the characters which appear are:

Captain Harlock (The MAN!)
Daiba Tadashi, Young Scientist
Yattaran, Arcadia's 2nd in Command
Yuki Kei, Beautiful Bridge Officer
Dr. Zero, Ship's Doctor (and drunkard)
Mrs. Masu, Ship's Cook
Mime, Beautiful Alien who owes her life to Harlock
Maji, Ship's Engineer
Mayu, Harlock's young Goddaughter
Principal of Mayu's school (female)
Kiruta, Earth's Garrison Commander
Prime Minister of the Earth Federal Government
Witch Aman, the Villain (female)

This will not be a typical low quality fandub! Fans of the Special Edition MKVs know that the audio quality will be high. The release will be dual audio (English and Japanese) in 5.1 surround. Source raw is the Region 2 DVD boxset and the Columbia Eternal Edition OSTs.

Please post your intentions to audition here in the forum. Thanks so much!

Daiba Tadashi is my name.
Fan dubbing is my game.
(That's who WillowD's auditioning for.)

I make a good imitation of Herr Flick (those that seen BBC's Allo Allo will understand the joke)!

Hello o_O

I might be interested in auditioning for a role on your Harlock project!

Just have to take care of some very minor details first.. like.. getting a microphone.. and seeing the anime would probably be a good idea also. >_>

I'll keep in touch.

Welcome Shade!

Definately have a look at Episode 13 (or the whole series for that matter). It'll show you what you are getting into.

YO

I am still around, and wanting to play doctor zero.

I have many years of practice playing the drunk.

Skull and crossbones doctor. Take a shot of whiskey, remove a bullet. All in a days work. Alter states to compensate with the knowledge you have gained from alter states.

This is a golden oppurtunity to have the best fandub on the Internet. Would love to see a lot of people get involved.

I hope this rocks harder than the Naruto Fandub

Tsubasa · « **Reply #17 on:** June 22, 2006, 01:49:06 am »

Yeah, go Yaoiboy, we're counting on you!

YaoiBoy · « **Reply #18 on:** June 24, 2006, 07:51:20 am »

Make no mistake.... this is not a joke. The production value will be high, but above all, we will have fun making this. So far there are 22 different audio tracks waiting to be filled in!

Willow is putting the finishing touches on the subtitle script and then it goes to Sun and Gimp to become the dubbing script. Once the script is in production, I will push harder to find people to fill all the roles.

GET YOUR AUDITIONS IN NOW!

Thanks,

Look what someone posted in the Creamy Mami thread, of all things. We are a diverse set of leachers.

PS: how about the Captain Harlock 1978 movie, by the way? I thought it was supposed to be in qc long ago... Has it actually been translated at all? Can I help? (It's the only Harlock stuff I've never seen in my life... Only seen a few screenshots... Would be curious to watch it!)

Funny you should ask that. I was actually editing it when I noticed you post and went to read it. The English translation has been transcribed from the CornPone release. I've almost finished the timing and typesetting. Yaoiboy is doing his magic with audio and video processing. People have auditioned for the voice dub. (Well, most, I still haven't gotten around to submitting mine. <grin>)

In other words, things are progressing quite nicely. But when it will actually get out, who knows?

If you're serious about wanting to help, then talk to YaoiBoy in IRC channel #live-evil@irc.enterthegame.com. He's doing a pretty good job at attracting good talent to work on the various Matsomoto anime series. And his own work is awesome, particularly when it comes to the audio magic he adds to the fansubs.

YaoiBoy · « **Reply #20 on:** June 27, 2006, 07:35:47 am »

Well folks,

The Japanese script is in! WillowD has done a fine job with it. If you need a copy of the raw movie AVI and the script for study, please let me know and I'll arrange to get it to you. With the help of Sun_Tze and Crypticgimp, the English ADR script begins production NOW! Get those auditions in!!!

Thanks!

Nao · « **Reply #21 on:** July 05, 2006, 02:28:06 pm »

Willow, what is CornPone? Is it an analog fansub group from yore?
I didn't know you were making a dub. The idea sounds a bit silly to me... I hope you'll still offer a "real" fansub (or even just the raw, thank you

). I'd be more comfortable with the original Japanese dialogue.

Actually, he is of German descendance.
His family is supposedly from Heiligenstadt, in Germany. There's also a "Heiligenstatt" in Austria, but as you can see, it's not the same spelling.

YaoiBoy · « **Reply #23 on:** July 05, 2006, 02:55:29 pm »

Hi there,

ConePoneFlicks is an independant film studio that cut their teeth on making fansubs of Matsumoto Anime on VHS. They don't do fansubs anymore, but they graciously allow us to use their translation for our new digital fansub. Part of the agreement is that we will digitize and release the old VHS version as well. They make their own original movies and parodies. They are pretty hilarious and worth a look. http://www.cornponeflicks.org/. Just don't go there asking about Harlock as they will send you to the door!

As for a Japanese version of the movie, you will have a choice of how you want to watch this. I always include the original Japanese track along with our new remastered ones. If you want to watch the original Japanese version, with or without subtitles, you will have that option at the click of a mouse.

Thanks so much,

Nao · « **Reply #24 on:** July 05, 2006, 03:16:54 pm »

Well... That's cool...
How about releasing the digitized version right now, by the way?

Tsubasa · « **Reply #25 on:** July 06, 2006, 01:35:39 am »

Need to get the dubbing cast ready and dub it first before we can think about releasing it.

YaoiBoy · « **Reply #26 on:** July 06, 2006, 01:39:34 am »

We are slowly getting there. Sun is working his way through the creation of the dub script. I have a person coming over this weekend to read some lines. A potential Harlock! ^_~

Peace,

Nao · « **Reply #27 on:** July 06, 2006, 09:12:05 am »

It may be fun for all of you, good for you, but it's still a pity you don't release the digitized ConePone fansub beforehand $:-\$

I certainly don't have an issue with releasing the VHS version first. I'd like to think that people prefer the DVD version, but I agree it isn't fair to make everyone else who doesn't care about it wait. Getting it well seeded is a challenge though. I'll see what I can do.
