Final Fantasy VIII Fandub - The Opening

Hello everyone! This is the official opening for my Final Fantasy VIII Fandub Project! This is something I've always wanted to do! I've assembled a very talented cast of fandubbing actors, and we're going to dub the entire game of FFVIII! A special thanks to XxBlackTaintedHeartxX for letting me use her game footage.

For this opening sequence, I wanted to add my own personal touch. I wanted to do something a little different from other fandubs...hence the many different voice-overs. It was a heck of a lot of work, but it was worth it. I may have made some choices that are a little unusual, but I hope you understand what I was going for.

THE CAST:

SQUALL: Cettoto
RINOA: XxAgentLennonxX
EDEA: FairuzatheLolita
SEIFER: EsenAmke
ELLONE: HeartofAnxiety
LAGUNA: The3rd23790
TITLE ANNOUNCER: 14thOmega

[EsenAmke]

Fair enough, its all good. But I think it was because I was watching the opening and did the reacts as it went. Aussieroth got rid of the long pauses, thats all. I think he still has the session saved, I'll contact him and see if he can have it uncut.

[XxAgentLennonxX]

@EsenAmke Oh that's not necessary. Don't worry about it. Everything is fine the way it is. Thanks!

[EsenAmke]

I say some of the reacts I did either sound different, are in different places or some got cut. I was supervised by Aussieroth cause I was at his house, did I show off a tad? Cause some of the better ones I did kinda scared him too.

[XxAgentLennonxX]

@EsenAmke You gave me a great selection of reactions! In fact, you gave me so many that I couldn't use them all...haha! I took your reacts and mixed them up to fit the scene. I hope you don't mind. You did a great job, so no worries! ^_^

[XxAgentLennonxX]

Thank you everyone for your compliments! I'm looking forward to working on this myself!

[SkyBlue4bluesky]

wow I love this voice for squall very suitable more than others make him kinda rude

wonderful femal fandubbers too please do more

[dikalmennnnn]

I LOOOOVVEEE THISSSS <3

[Aussieroth7]

@EsenAmke No worries bro. You are doing well and it's more than understandable to be anxious and nervous. Just take it as it comes and find your groove :)

[46LCG]

Ahhh, this opening is so great!  I can't wait to see more!

[xxBlackLolitarose]

This is GOOOD. XD

Although the ending voice is just a bit DBZ loll xD <3

[xxBrokenRozexx]

why square enix didn't use this opening? it's really prefessional!!!! XDDD LOVE IT!

[EsenAmke]

Agreed, Aussieroth told me the same thing to me in an email once. She did a good job, the old saying goes if you love it, do it. I guess I'm way too anxious for my next set of lines, this is my first role after all.

[Cettoto]

Fantastic job everyone, and kudos to xXAgentLennonXx for the expert direction.

Also @EsenAmke Great job, and I'm looking forward to working with you, but in the future it might be a good idea to talk about technical aspects of the dub through PM - our director did a fantastic job, and she deserves that recognition. : )

[The3rd23790]

Looking forward to this!
