Using Quotes for VO (11): I Am Old

I am sorry I wasn't able to do my recordings, so I'll make up to it by recording myself 10 times. 

Here's 1/10:


"I am old Gandalf. I don't look it, but I'm beginning to feel it in my heart of hearts. 

Well-preserved indeed! 

Why, I feel all thin, sort of stretched, if you know what I mean: like butter that has been scraped over too much bread. 

That can't be right. I need a change, or something."

Using Quotes for VO (10): One Ring To Rule Them All

Since I didn't have time to record myself yesterday (I was helping out with my mom's business) I am going to do an extra recording today. Here it is:

Here is the script:


“Three Rings for the Elven-kings under the sky,

Seven for the Dwarf-lords in halls of stone,

Nine for Mortal Men, doomed to die,

One for the Dark Lord on his dark throne In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.

One Ring to rule them all, One Ring to find them,

One Ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them."

Using Quotes for VO (9): I Am Old

I have now started on another quote: "I Am Old" as I have called it. This is a quote from The Lord of The Rings: The Fellowship of The Ring. 

Here's the recording:

If you want to see the scene in the movie here it is:



Here is the script:


“I am old, Gandalf. I don't look it, but I am beginning to feel it in my heart of hearts. 

Well-preserved indeed! 

Why, I feel all thin, sort of stretched, if you know what I mean: like butter that has been scraped over too much bread. 

That can't be right. 

I need a change, or something.” 


My favorite part in this script is "why, I feel thin, sort of stretched, if you know what I mean: like butter that has been scraped over too much bread."

I liked to stretch out the sound of the word "stretch." I am also having trouble to sound sarcastic in the "well preserved indeed" part. 

What I like about the clip in the movie is that the actor did good on sounding shaky, and as if he couldn't find the right words to say to Gandalf. You could tell because the actor (purposely of course) paused a lot)
