Provide localized audio files for Call Power prompt #1021

Closed hannahkane closed 7 years ago

hannahkane commented 7 years ago

The next phase of the copyright campaign includes a "Call your MEP" component. The tool we're using allows us to use a customizable audio prompt at the beginning of the call, before the constituent is connected to the MEP.

For each language, we'll need to provide an audio file (either mp3 or ogg format) of this message:

"You are now being connected to a Member of the European Parliament that is working on Copyright Reform. Feel free to follow the script provided. Thank you for sharing your story."

@Melechuga - would you like to be the voice for the EN version?

Melechuga commented 7 years ago

Hi Hannah,

No, I'd like a British or Irish person to record -- would Sarah Allen be free??! That would be awesome.

Thanks, Melissa

+1 For British/Irish accent!

If @Saallen is not free, maybe we can ask Mandy Chan?

Melechuga commented 7 years ago

YES. She'd be perfect too.

Saallen commented 7 years ago

Hello- I am happy to help with my Irish accent 🇮🇪

TheoChevalier commented 7 years ago

@Melechuga For other languages, do we have any preference wether the voice is masculine/feminine?

Melechuga commented 7 years ago

@TheoChevalier No preference; I leave it up to you!

TheoChevalier commented 7 years ago

Sounds good, thanks

Melechuga commented 7 years ago

Actually, can we ask our new Advocacy Engagement Contractor in Germany, Toni to do the German one?? He joins us Tuesday, the 15th.

Thanks!

Sorry for the multiple posts-- could we ask Federica (our Spain/Italy contractor) to do it in Italian??

Thanks, Melissa

Great input, I’ve asked Federica if she’s okay. @Melechuga would you have Toni’s email?

For FR, ES, PL, it would cost $1,250 to get it done professionally through our agency. It’s expensive because it includes casting, voice talent fees, demos, project management, recording, editing, mixing, and fulfillment to the spec. And we probably don’t need all that.

I’m asking how much it would cost if they get it done by translators on their laptops. (I would try to avoid doing French myself, I don’t think my voice would fit here)

hannahkane commented 7 years ago

@TheoChevalier @Melechuga - what are the next steps here? How can I help?

TheoChevalier commented 7 years ago

Discussed w/ Melissa, but updating here too :)

French, Spanish and Polish have been requested yesterday to our vendor, I don’t know yet when it will be ready.

German should be done by Toni, hopefully. Italian will be done by Federica, maybe today

TheoChevalier commented 7 years ago

Alright, received Italian and should record English tomorrow.

I’m adding files in this folder as I get them: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/0B8po55rC8WGXNmYxM1k5eUpHU2s?usp=sharing

hannahkane commented 7 years ago

@TheoChevalier - looks like we have everything but German, yes? Do we have an ETA on that one?

TheoChevalier commented 7 years ago

@hannahkane Correct! I have a first German version, checking with Toni if he needs to do another take to clarify a small detail. If we’re running out of time, we can use this version, just let me know

TheoChevalier commented 7 years ago

Got the final version by Toni, @hannahkane the files can be uploaded
