PLEASE NOTE!!!!

IF SOMEONE ELSE AUDITIONS AND IS BETTER THAN THE SELECTED USERS, THEY WILL BE USED INSTEAD. I HIGHLY DOUBT THAT WILL HAPPEN!
Catherine

Awww, when I audition for something like this, it never happens, but now it actually is. Haven't got a camera to record anymore.

Ah well, happy recording. It sounds fun from the ones I've heard.

I'm not sure how...But you should try!!! You have an amazing voice! Very Happy
ConverseSneaker

You do realize there is no need to post this twice?

And also, repeated use of capitals are annoying.
Pannic

If I can ever get around to downloading that recording program, I'll send in my rendition of "Wonderful."
Rumpelteazer2006

Yay! Now if we can just get some more guy singers to audition....
erinmylungs

I'm so excited about this. Yeah, more guys need to audition. ;]

I'm really happy that I got Nessa. :] I love her character.
ChorusKidx3

I would really like to audition actually. But the only thing is..i don't have a microphone. So really im useless. It does sound like quite the experience though. Sorry. If there was an alternative I would take it. Very Happy
Rumpelteazer2006

Actually, I think I found mine for like 6 bucks at Radio Shack or Best Buy. They should plug directly into the computer, and aren't too hard to find...maybe try Radio Shack.
erinmylungs

I have Karaoke Revolution and I used the USB microphone for that. I also have a SingStar one but it's so quiet and doesn't work well.

Hi, on the other thread there was something about backing tracks?
I was just wondering if anyone could send me a file for Dancing Through Life because I have an audition tonight and the backing track I ordered from the internet hasn't arrived in the post yet!

I really hope someone can help and I wouldn't be asking unless I was desperate.
kozafluitmusique

Everyone is amazing, I'm not, go everyone else!
GlindaGirl45

Hey, um, I was late for auditioning so I thought I would audition now if it was Ok. I hope it'll show up, let me know if it doesn't!
Galinda audition:
/Users/tracysokat/Desktop/Clip 03.mov
Elphaba audition:
/Users/tracysokat/Desktop/Clip 04.mov
i'll take either part!
shakalakababy

did you read the rest of the thread? Elphaba and Glinda are cast and they have recorded songs already.
dolbinau

For the n00bs - can someone explains how this works? Does someone release the entire 'soundtrack' for download after it has been done? Has this been done before with other musicals?
Kerry_ROCKS!

No Good Deed

Well, here's No Good Deed lol, recorded with my crappy singstar mic form the playstation lol!the first bit sounds really nasally, NOT becaus e i'm singing through my nose but because in the first recording i used the mic volume was way too loud but i couldn't be bothered to do the first bit again, but anyway. It's not my best, but no nasty comments please.

since the person who started this idea hasn't shown an active interest lately i hereby cast you as the Wizard unless of course there are no objections??
i LOVED your 'Wonderful!' it was ace!!really good!
Pannic

I intend to put up a video recording of "Wonderful." I'll have it up later this week.
TheDamageIsUnlimited

Give it until Pannic has uploaded his =] It's only fair.

I'll take whatever is needed... so I'll happily record for Boq/Dillamond or whatever is wanted =D

EDIT: Since the person who started this hasn't been active, should be start a new thread? Also... I can make banners for people who take part in the recording... I know my way around photoshop =D
erinmylungs

Oooh a banner would be awesome. Also, once the first part of dancing through life is done, up until nessa, I'll do mine. However, I am sick at the moment and am busy, being involved in another show at the moment (then I have another but I'll have more time with that show, the rehearsals are not as intense).
TheDamageIsUnlimited

Ooooh! Okay =D -gets to work on banners-[/i]

I sent my parts of "Dancing Through Life" to our Fiyero, we're just waiting to hear the rest! That'll be one of the hard ones, since there's so many people to mix.

By the way, I totally volunteer to mix some of these together if you want. I have some decent sound editing knowledge, and I can do all kinds of stuff, including fixing flat or sharp notes and putting neat filters on things. It's good to mix things because each person records with mics that sound different, or one's louder than the other. I discovered that on some of Elphaba and my songs, but I think they'll turn out just fine. Anyway, so let me know if you want me to take a whack at anyone else's. I want to see this turn out good, so I'm happy to take charge of something! Applause
TheDamageIsUnlimited

That sounds awesome =D I'd go for it! If we keep more people doing things, the more active this'll be =]
erinmylungs

That would be awesome. I have problems with starting the music and my singing on time because of my slow computers. D: And I'm a disaster when it comes to recording programs. Haha.

Try recording it with earphones on, so the mic only catches your voice and not the background music. That way, if the music stops, you know what key you're in and can keep going, but we won't know that the music stopped! Then we can just patch your voice into the background track. If you want to send me any of your stuff, anyone, just send me a PM.

CAST CHARACTERS:










BLANK BANNERS:
[names to be added once cast]




ENSEMBLE/MINOR CHARACTERS:

Kerry_ROCKS!

laaa

OMG i LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! they're awesome!!!! i'm gonna use mine now if that's ok!!!
WOW!!
TheDamageIsUnlimited

Yeah that's cool, I'm just working on one for our Nessa =D
Kerry_ROCKS!

laaa

OMG i LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! they're awesome!!!! i'm gonna use mine now if that's ok!!!
WOW!! i actually love you!
TheDamageIsUnlimited

Haha... I thought I'd use Kerry... given what your forum name is and everything =P haha

EDIT: A Nessarose banner has been added for erinmylungs, see page 3 =D
erinmylungs

Omigod, omigod, you guys! (Sorry. Couldn't resist. ;D) It's BEAUTIMOUS. THANK YOU!
TheDamageIsUnlimited

Added a blank Wizard banner ready for the part to be cast =]
Rumpelteazer2006

Oh my freakin' goodness. You so totally rock!!!!

I'm feeling very Galinda-esque asking this, but, er....how do I get that picture to appear in my signature? Do you have a url for it?

And again, so awesome.
TheDamageIsUnlimited

You'd be better to host it yourself =] Right click on the image and go to Properties and then copy the URL. You can host it then on a photobucket album or whatever, just in case ImageShack packs in or something =D
TheDamageIsUnlimited

Any latest on this? Or about casting =/ I think we should encourage everyone who submitted recordings to resubmit because we need to get this going =]
Kerry_ROCKS!

princip[al

Elphaba, Fiyero, Nessa and Glinda have already been cast. We already have recorded and posted the links for :
As Long As Your Mine
What Is This Feeling
No Good Deed
and The Wizard and I (though i may send a different one in to replace this one.)
erinmylungs

Isn't there a song that Nessa sings? "The Wicked Witch of the East" in some production. If someone has the instrumental or lyrics, I could try it. I'd also need another recording or whatever. I don't know. Once the first part of Dancing Through Life is done, I'll definitely do my part.
TheDamageIsUnlimited

It's in every production, it just wasn't included on the soundtrack because most of the song is split up by dialogue and it gives away too much plot according to Schwartz. I have the piano/conductors score for the show, but that would only be able to produce a piano instrumental... there are people who use sibelius and other programs to orchestrate their own instrumentals, but I don't know anyone who can =/
erinmylungs

Could you send it to me anyway? That would be kind of cool. I dont' think I remember hearing it.
Pannic

I'm sorry... I've been a tad busy lately... school and such.

I'm about to start recording the video of myself singing "Wonderful"

I'll post it later today, once it's all uploaded.

Just to say that, yes, I am intending to 'audition.'
Pannic

Okay, here's my vid of myself singing "Wonderful"

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UmrKtTQYgbQ
erinmylungs

It's really good. Maybe it's just me, but the recording seems a little fast. Otherwise, it's great! Good job! :]
TheDamageIsUnlimited

Good job, Pannic! =D

Erinmylungs, I don't actually have a recording, I only have the sheet music, I'll try and make a piano instrumental for you and pass it on =]

If you aren't familiar with the song, there are plenty of clips of it on youtube. I'll most likely cut it down like they do on the soundtrack, though, deleting out the unnecessary scripted parts.
wicked_boy

When it's complete, can you make a new thread with the link on to download the entire recording?

(I don't read this thread much and don't want to miss the finished product.)
TheDamageIsUnlimited

Yeah, I think that's what is gonna happen anyway =D

That would be fantastic. :] Thank you!
TheDamageIsUnlimited

I'm working on it now, but it sounds a bit weird =/

I've just had a thought... maybe we could do a Two-Disc Recording. Have all the soundtrack songs on the first disc, and then have a Piano/Vocal second disk where people can record any Wicked songs they want to. So we can put the Wicked Witch of the East on there, and I'd love to do versions of Defying Gravity and Making Good (a song that was later replaced by The Wizard and I)

So it'd be like Disc 1: Soundtrack, Disc 2: Acoustic Songs... just a thought =]
erinmylungs

Like a Cast Open-Mic CD where the cast can sing whatever they want to? Maybe I'm mistaken. Because well, I love The Wizard and I and it's the only Wicked song I can belt (Defying Gravity is HARD). xD
TheDamageIsUnlimited

Yeah... just like that =D
Kerry_ROCKS!

xx

that sounds awesome, doing WWOTE would be great and everything else too : D
Elphaba is ready to role!!!
TheDamageIsUnlimited

Okay, cool... Oh btw, Kerry_ROCKS! Now that Pannic has put up a recording, can you review it and cast?? xD

So that'd be...
The Wicked Witch of the East ~ erinmylungs
The Wizard and I ~ erinmylungs
Making Good ~ TheDamageIsUnlimited
Defying Gravity ~ TheDamageIsUnlimited

Anyone wanna add?
erinmylungs

I'd love to do "I'm Not That Girl." God, I love that song. I can actually relate to it too.
Kerry_ROCKS!

hjhj

i'd like to do popular and thank goodness, also NOMTW.

we also have to record the finale too! (in our roles that we have been cast as)

should we maybe release our cast recording and the extra bits (as in finale WWOTE, the unreleased songs with our CAST roles so it'll make sense, then do a different one where we swap about. otherwise there's no point in casting if you know what i mean as ppl will be singing random songs that aren't their charaacter??
so maybe 2 threads would b good. cause i know i'd be confused if i listened to teh cast recording and on disc 2 there were the same songs but sung by different ppl??
so maybe Disc 1. soundtrack
disc 2. sooundtrack2 (like the 2nd moulin rouge one) inc WWOTE a nd the finale etc

new thread: Wicked songs, sung by all (as in the random swapping)
TheDamageIsUnlimited

Oh, no that's what I already said...

Disc 1: The Cast Recording, where we record the soundtrack like it is in the parts we're cast as.

Disc 2: Wicked Tribute CD/Open Mic CD, so that's any songs you want to sing, songs deleted from the show and stuff not on the soundtrack etc. So not too many songs that are already on the soundtrack.

Yeah?
lucymaybarker

Could I audition?

I've got a version of 'The Wizard and I'm on my youtube account Smile

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kbMwo6DC7Sk

xx
erinmylungs

I think we should make a website for them. :] Once they are done. :]

Oh, and Lucy, you sound amazing. :] I've seen your other videos. Great job! =D
Rumpelteazer2006

Is there any particular song that I should be working on? I have been sooo busy lately, doing rehearsals for a show at Disneyland, so I'm usually not home til late, but I could probably work on the remaining ones this weekend. How is "Dancing Through Life" coming along, everyone?
erinmylungs

I can't do much until it is started. xD But once they get on it, I'll be able to get my part in and I'll probably need some help doing it I'm hopeless xD
TheDamageIsUnlimited

Is it alright if I take 'charge' of Disc Two, then? Cos' it gives me something to do. And then maybe Kerry_ROCKS! can take charge of casting and putting together Disc 1??
Kerry_ROCKS!

WOOP

Yeah that sounds cool.! : D

casting for the principals is pretty much done, but i'll look over the two Auditions for the Wizard tonight! : D
We Still Need: Morrible
Dilamond/Witch's father
Boq
and everybody can double up as Ozians i guess



Looking Forward to WWOTE!! i already know Elphie's part so it should be cool : D i have the full score at home! And i know the finale harmonies just fine so that should be no problem

Thedamageisunlimited:Boss of Disc Two!! WOOP
Me: Disc One, along with everybody : D

are we gonna make a list for Disc Two then? of the songs we're doing?
I know i'd very much like to do a Dianne-esque Popular and possbly NOMTW. : D


ooh, Laci, i shall be sending you my part of FG next week so either you can send both back to me and i'll edit or you can do it, i really don't mind : D


Erin, do you have the backing track for DTL?? cause if you do, can you record me your part and send it to me so i can start editing (just the vocals)

I also am prob gonna re-record my TWAI
Woop i have a new vid of it in the dance studio, very bad accoustics!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rlaq-N2zFgY

And i have almost decided on my DG ending
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DZ6GHbowMg0

however the second 'Bring Me Down' riff is gonna be different as i amde up a riff yesterday!
actor

I'll try and record dancing through life soon.

Also, I have a backing track to WWOTE but only from "save him please just save him" to "we deserve each other".
erinmylungs

Kerry, do you have the notes or anything for WWOTE? I'd love any help with that that you can give. I want to work on it because I know I do not know it incredibly well.

As for doubling up for ensemble, sounds like a good idea. I'm doing a LES MIS recording and that is what we are doing. I play Enjolras (I know! I'm a girl but I have a low voice. Haha. xD) and I also play one of the Turning ladies.

I don't the backing track for DTL sadly. I have Legally Blonde backing tracks from when I was audition for my last show because I had to sing two songs from that for a callback. xD Haha.

But yeah, um, once actor get's his done, we can all put our parts into it.

To be honest, I think this recording is going to come along nicely. :] SOOO EXCITED.
Kerry_ROCKS!

lala

OOOh actor!! i would Be extremely Grateful if you could send me the WWOTE backing track!!!!!

My friend Cristina is a musical genius so ill try and record her playing WWOTE on Piano or something so we can do from 'All of my life i've depended on you'

If you give me your email i can send you some stuff like the sheet music of WWOTE and a recording or something. I'll send you the DTL backing track too!
Do you know the tune of WWOTE?
x
Kerry
erinmylungs

I know it vaguely and my email is ernieislove@gmail.com

Thank you soooo much!
TheDamageIsUnlimited

I've created a separate discussion board for the recording, so that we aren't restricted to this one thread =] It'll be finished by tomorrow and I'll post the link
