DavidV Posted April 6, 2009 Report Share Posted April 6, 2009 (edited) Since Anthem is no longer copyrighted, I would like to make a public domain audio recording of the book. I have the necessary technical skills, but not the voice talent. Is anyone interested in this project? It's a short book, so it would not take very long. Even though I plan to give away the recordings, they could still be professionally packaged and the profit shared.

I would offer, I have a good voice, and a face for radio; but I don't have the equipment. Furthermore it's already been done. http://librivox.org/anthem-by-ayn-rand/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidV Posted April 6, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 6, 2009 Hey, that's great! I can send you a USB mic or headset if you're willing to do other recordings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kainscalia Posted April 6, 2009 Report Share Posted April 6, 2009 Greedy, there already is such a recording, and one of very high quality, actually, for free. http://www.thoughtaudio.com/titlelist/TA00...them/index.html It's been around for quite a while. Only one gripe: The narrator mispronounces her name as "Ann Rand". That's the only gripe I have with it, actually. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

K-Mac Posted April 6, 2009 Report Share Posted April 6, 2009 Sanjavalen has a perfect radio-type voice. You could PM or email him and see if he's interested. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tenure Posted April 6, 2009 Report Share Posted April 6, 2009 I'd offer, although, Santiago does have a good voice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
01503 Posted April 6, 2009 Report Share Posted April 6, 2009 I'd offer, although, Santiago does have a good voice. He's often likened to a Mexican Morgan Freeman. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoff Posted April 7, 2009 Report Share Posted April 7, 2009 http://www.thoughtaudio.com/titlelist/TA00...them/index.html They pronounce her name Ann Rand in the first audio segment. It says it is narrated by Michael Scott. What does Anthem have to do with The Office? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zip Posted April 7, 2009 Report Share Posted April 7, 2009 I was thinking of this last night... What about a series of videos for you tube like the ones done of Galt's speech only the entire book? Done like a comic strip perhaps? Or comics and live action video combined. There are some talented people here... Don't look at me though, I couldn't even draw unemployment.

SherryTX Posted April 7, 2009 Report Share Posted April 7, 2009 David - I sent you an email - my sister saw this post and is interested, but couldn't post a reply since she was at work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
