1
This recording session for God of War that we're starting today is the culmination of a lot of preparation.
2
This is definitely the most complicated session I've ever put together.
3
I'm gonna go get a sweatshirt.
4
Should come in the other room while we can, huh?
5
One of you here and one of you here.
6
How close do you need to be?
7
Here, just duck under the microphone.
8
We need to take a couple minutes to readjust where things are.
9
I'm a little nervous about this session, just the number of variables.
10
We've got a lot going on.
11
Two actors at a time.
12
We've got a lot of people gonna be at the session.
13
We've got facial capture, we've got teleprompters, we've got all kinds of stuff.
14
It's a new studio.
15
There's room for error, but I like to think that I've nailed everything down before we got there.
16
But I'm definitely.. my breath's coming a little shorter today than it normally does.
17
We are moments away.
18
What was it, Kratos?
19
All I remember is what I have lost.
20
That is why you should give me the power.
21
I understand its true meaning.
22
My character, I like to think of her as she thinks she's doing something good.
23
But in reality, she's trying to take over the world.
24
Kratos, she is the key to our revenge.
25
I trust you to do the right thing, Kratos.
26
You shouldn't.
27
Kratos, I found out, is a piece of me that I kind of didn't know existed.
28
It's kind of a dark side that it really is fun getting a chance to explore.
29
I delivered your revenge on Zeus.
30
My vengeance ends now.
31
I owe you nothing!
32
Urgh!
33
When you have the other actor in the room, you're able to come up with a rhythm.
34
It makes it more real.
35
I really, really like it.
36
It gives you a chance to play off of what the other person is doing as opposed to doing it by yourself.
37
We're getting so much from this performance that we wouldn't normally get.
38
I'm totally stoked about it right now.
39
You owe me this Kratos!
40
I owe you nothing!
41
Bravo!
42
That's perfect!
43
Awesome.
44
That was it.
45
That was it.
46
I knew you'd come back.
47
I've never worked with the prompters, and it's really freeing for the actor actor
48
because you know you're looking straight ahead instead of always you know face down in the page
49
and it's really a cool experience.
50
Find the labyrinth!
51
AHHHH!
52
AHHHH!
53
Please!
54
Help!
55
Kratos!
56
One of my favorite things to do is scream.
57
I really...
58
I like...
59
I don't know why.
60
Maybe...
61
No, I don't know.
62
Why?
63
I saw Zeus torture my father.
64
I just try really a simple approach to it.
65
It's bringing those words into your character and actually thinking a thought before it.
66
It makes it more real.
67
They called me a monster.
68
Beautiful.
69
Natalie was new.
70
We had never worked with her before.
71
She was an ace.
72
She totally knocked it out of the park.
73
Many more variables than a normal voiceover session for a game today.
74
And it went very, very well.
75
I'm happy with how today turned out.
76
Phenomenal.
77
Phenom.
78
That's all that really matters is Stig is happy.
79
And Stig's happy, we're all happy.
80
Who is Hercules?
81
Well, it was me for seven years on TV, so this is a whole different look.
82
I didn't quite have that look.
83
I had kind of more gear on it.
84
I didn't weigh, you know, 4,000 pounds.
85
This guy's like about 12 feet tall.
86
They called them labors.
87
Ha!
88
That was good.
89
That was really good.
90
Kevin Sorbo was obviously an easy choice because he's Hercules, Not necessarily in terms of the way that he's played Perkins in the past, a little bit of a departure.
91
Can we get, but this kind of brother, more seething?
92
But this time, brother, this time I will destroy you.
93
That's good.
94
In this game, he's a much darker brute.
95
He's not the brightest light bulb out there, but at the same time, when it comes to war, he's brilliant.
96
The direction is more pissed.
97
Okay.
98
As pissed as you can get.
99
The most valuable I can be is to take what the creator of the game has been imagining
100
and seeing on paper for a long time and bringing it to life with the voice.
101
And trying to find different ways to get to actors to achieve what he wants to do.
102
One thing, if you would, Kevin.
103
Yeah.
104
Take the breath after stables and then you can finish off the phrase.
105
Okay.
106
The most frustrating thing about doing voiceover is the amount of time you've got to do each line.
107
You've got to repeat it, but you've got to also do it in so many different ways, so many different inflections, and you end up losing your voice.
108
Have you not killed enough of your family?
109
Good.
110
That's very good.
111
It was a slam dunk.
112
He really brought a passion to the character, and he was very professional.
113
His voice was kind of running out.
114
That's when he gave some of his best stuff.
115
Fantastic.
116
Beautiful.
117
Yay!
118
Thank you.
119
It wasn't the same Hercules, not even close to it.
120
So it was a darker and more sinister person and a more evil person to deal with and play.
121
But, you know, from my standpoint, it was a lot of fun.
122
It's the latest thing.
123
New Day recording.
124
Very excited about it.
125
Today we're doing Rip Torn and Malcolm McDowell.
126
The game's based on Greek mythology.
127
This guy's like the Smith God.
128
And he's like...
129
Always the Vulcan.
130
Yes, exactly.
131
The Roman name for Hephaestus is Vulcan.
132
He's the god of fire and he's a great blacksmith.
133
The greatest thing you have on stage is the other actor.
134
I don't get extra time for this.
135
Thank you.
136
They are entertainment and they are movies and you can get involved in it.
137
It kind of gives you a semblance of what live theater used to be when you had audience participation.
138
Yeah, I kind of look like that.
139
Ghost of Sparta.
140
It is you.
141
Well, well, well.
142
I thought Zeus would have killed you by now.
143
Oh, what's he doing?
144
He's the inventor.
145
He also created a labyrinth.
146
A labyrinth?
147
Wow.
148
And where is the golf course?
149
It's really cool.
150
Eat lunch with Malcolm McDowell, he can't be dead.
151
The ice storm, that will give me the power, the power to bring my son back to me.
152
Where is my boy?
153
That's awesome.
154
You bastards! That was awesome.
155
That was fabulous.
156
We want to protect him with one more, please.
157
One more please?
158
Oh, we're not gonna go protecting all these tapes, are we?
159
Don't tell me we're gonna do two fucking tapes.
160
Why don't you just use a bit of proper tape?
161
You're gonna...
162
Why do we have to do two tapes of everything?
163
Well, because we...
164
Not for protection?
165
Yeah.
166
Oh, come on.
167
Let's listen to it.
168
That's nonsense.
169
We're gonna listen to one line and be right with you.
170
Okay.
171
That's right there.
172
You don't mind, right?
173
Because it's really...
174
If I'm in a jag and it's going, it's going.
175
I hear ya.
176
Could we do the line to escape it, please?
177
Yes.
178
One more time.
179
Tell me what you need.
180
The word catalyst had a little bit of a squirtle to it.
181
Okay.
182
Okay?
183
When you're ready.
184
Okay.
185
To escape it, we must assemble it.
186
Actors are so varied and so different in the way they work,
187
and to find what that key in there is and unlock
188
that door with them and then be able to play is really a challenge and a kick at the same time.
189
He said that if I took the liquid fire and the sling, oh, my boy, oh, my child!
190
I actually like that.
191
It's different than what we thought.
192
Terrific, thank you.
193
Vengeance on the king of gods.
194
You'll need an army of gods. And weapons.
195
Of course, weapons.
196
I could build.
197
I could use the fire of Hades.
198
Wait, please.
199
Please, wait.
200
Free me.
201
Free me from my torture.
202
We're good.
203
We're good.
204
Thank you, Spot.
205
Thanks, Barton.
206
I say, oh boy.
207
I say, squaza.
208
We're not used to people coming in here and nailing it so, like, basically knocking it out of the park like this.
209
Oh, really?
210
We had more time, so.
211
Well, no, okay.
212
Well, listen, I just thought, oh, my God.
213
I thought I had reams and reams and I had to do everything twice.
214
I was like, oh, my God.
215
If you've got it, you've got it, right?
216
Right.
217
Yeah, we've got some great stuff.
218
Great.
219
It's fantastic.
220
Terrific.
221
Thank you.
222
My pleasure.
223
To work with Malcolm McDowell and Rip Torn in the same day.
224
Pretty wild experience.
225
It's fascinating to me too, the different acting styles, because Malcolm McDowell is very much the Royal Shakespeare Company
226
and then it comes in word for word like that.
227
And Rip Torn is more of the old actor's studio and he's a little bit up and down and nowhere, but out of that comes a gold of its own kind.
228
There's an extra level of dimension and texture
229
that we got to them That's just through the fact
230
that they're they're fucking good actors now that we've gotten the recording part of it down
231
My stress level has decreased a great deal now.
232
You can have a glass of wine But you are the reason I live in torment.
233
He told me he would kill you.
234
He can't.
235
Perhaps he did allow me to kill the Nemean lion, but he made your name known amongst the people.
236
A fierce warrior, a killer made a hero, a man made a god.

为什么要通过这个视频来练习口语?

在这个与《战神3》配音演员一起的录音过程中,您可以体验到生动的英语对话场景。通过沉浸在这样的专业制作中,您不仅能提高英语口语能力,还能感受到角色之间的真实互动。这种氛围使得练习 英语影子跟读 更加生动有趣。同时,您可以通过模仿演员的发音和语调,提高自己的表达能力,加强 英语口语练习

语法和表达在语境中

在视频中,演员们使用了一些重要的英语句式和表达方式。以下是我们可以学习的几个关键结构:

  • 直接引语: “I owe you nothing!” 增强表达力度,用于强调拒绝。
  • 反问句: "Should we come in the other room while we can?" 这种结构可以用于表示邀请和建议。
  • 条件句: "If you do the right thing, Kratos..." 用以表达条件和结果的关系,帮助构建更复杂的句子。
  • 感叹句: "Bravo! That's perfect!" 使用感叹句可以传达强烈的情感和赞赏。

通过模仿这些句子,您能够在 shadow speech 练习中提升口语流利度及自然度。

常见的发音陷阱

在视频中的对话中,有一些词汇和重音可能会导致发音困难,特别是对于非母语的学习者。例如:

  • 变量(variables):发音时要注意声母和元音的结合。
  • 复仇(revenge):在快速对话中,元音可能容易混淆,发音要清晰。
  • 自由(freeing):这个词在不同语境下需要注意于正确的重音位置。

通过这些词汇的反复练习,您可以克服这些发音挑战,提升自己的发音准确度,确保在进行 shadowspeak 时更加流畅自信。

什么是跟读法?

跟读法 (Shadowing) 是一种有科学依据的语言学习技巧,最初开发用于专业口译员的培训,并由多语言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。这个方法简单而强大:您在听英语母语原声的同时立即大声重复——就像是一个延迟1-2秒紧跟说话者的影子。与被动听力或语法练习不同,跟读法强迫您的大脑和口腔肌肉同时处理并模仿真实的讲话模式。研究表明它能显着提高发音准确性,语调,节奏,连读,听力理解和口语流利度——使其成为雅思口语备考和真实英语交流最有效的方法之一。
