The Rise of Skywalker: Ascendant (Released) — Page 639

This is probably the best we’re gonna get for “I had hoped that you might tell me!”:

Here is a different reading of the second line (although I personally still prefer the first):

I think no matter what we go with it will need some voice modulation effects placed on top. The results the AI spits out sometimes have the effect down but other times it’s a clear voice.

Here it is as a question (because somebody on the last page recommended it):

And here a bunch of general alternatives (some of which have that emphasis you mentioned):

Hey there!
Yeah, the first reading “I had hoped…” definitely has a more natural flow to it. As for C-3PO being a goldmine for AI voices, I never really thought about it that way before, but it makes sense. His voice is already pretty distinct and mechanical, so it lends itself well to being recreated by AI. When I read any book, I go to https://edubirdie.com/top-writers to ask these top writers for help with the novel analysis, and then I access AI voices to get a more expressive voice for the characters. So I like your suggestion of changing the emphasis in that first line. “I hoped YOU would tell ME” definitely adds a bit more context and emotion to the line. So, do you have any favorite software or techniques for adding those modulation effects?
I will enjoy it if you share them, please.
Thanks!*

This is probably the fastest and easiest way of doing it:

I like this take the best from my previous post:

Although I do wonder if it might be too long.

Yeah, it seems to work pretty damn well:

If we want a more subtle effect I can reduce the delay length.

My ultimate TROS dream is to somehow create a scene where Finn incites a stormtrooper rebellion, and to maybe have some regular Stormtroopers fight against the red extra evil Stormtroopers at the end. Maybe a hologram message with AI voice lines?

I applied a negative dB gain to the “echo” effect which produces the signature robotic 3PO sound. This gives it a more subtle effect, perhaps more in-line with the film. Provided it isn’t too long, I think this should be a nice fit for the scene:

It would be possible to do that for Finn, at least audio-wise. But I seriously doubt there is suitable footage for such a thing. Which is a shame, because I agree that it would be incredible.

What about adding Kelleran’s “everything is going to be alright, kid” in the force ghost voices scene?

I’d love a link for this edit!

Two days left in this year’s Star Wars Celebration. Any news?

I can safely say there has been no news regarding TROS: Ascendant at SW Celebration, but we’ll check back tomorrow and see if they’ve reported anything.

Darth Plagueis can now appear in Rey nobody edits that nonetheless want to preserve the theme of Rey rejecting a dark heritage but don’t want her to be a Palpatine

This is a primitive technology as of now

But…it won’t be long before it advances enough to make it easy to edit Darth Plagueis into the sequel trilogy

Could I have a link to this please? 😃

Any chance you could use voice conversion instead of generating lines from text? (Unless that’s what you’re already doing). We’d need a voice actor who could match the intonation and accent of the original actor but it might allow for more control over the output you’re getting. I recently started toying around with it for music stuff and I’m impressed with the results.

I’ve been following several discord channels that generates AI voices of various singers. It sounds flawless in several cases. I’m not at all familiar with how they do it, though. I’m also fairly certain they only have it working this well for singing, not speaking.

Was there anything specifically that we still need done for this project? It’s been a while since I’ve even used my eleven labs account.

Did we end up deciding if we wanted Leia to say “Ben… come home”?
It would need reverb effects: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1s9zQpoA623HGGKDbs2zPdZbQXX_zVAMg/view?usp=sharing

I also want to quickly make sure you have all the other lines. They are:

• A new version of “Rey” to replace the repeated one
• I sense a great deal of uncertainty in you, Rey.
• He’s too dangerous
• A Jedi needs her weapon
• My mother doesn’t see the darkness in you. Your friends don’t either. But I do.
• They paid for your protection… in more than one way.
• Remastered version of dyad line
• Old Ben Kenobi line for Jedi voices
