# requests and # challenges

Just some quick announcements.

First, je_podfic is officially open for requests! ^_^

If there's a fic you really want to see/hear podficced, whether it's your own or someone else's, feel free to either comment to this post or make a request post of your own! Anything that gets more podfic into this fandom, I'm all for it :D

Second, I'm thinking about starting another podfic challenge here on the comm. I'm keen to get people's opinions on what kinds of things they'd like to see in a challenge - time-related, theme-related, things open to interpretation, exchanges, etc. Ideally, it would just be something fun with an end goal of generating more podfic for all of us to listen to ^_^

Thoughts or comments, I'd love to hear them!

I love the idea of several people reading a long fic! Having two readers works really nicely with the Wheel of Time audio books. I was thinking too that it might be interesting to have different people taking on each character, rather than just reading a chunk each, and then have another person doing the narration in between, but I don't know if that would be a bit jarring to the listener, even without thinking of how much extra work would have to go into the file editing...

And I'd like another challenge that wasn't focused on porn.. Maybe a humourous one? Humour seems like it would be pretty challenging to read successfully, so it would be even more of a challenge then! 8D

Multi-voice work really needs to be done in the same recording space, otherwise the amount of editing and manipulation that would be required to get each voice to the same volume and quality frankly beggars imagination XD;;;. Getting people into the same room to record would be awesome though!

Hehe, me too! I know the NC-17 aspect put off a lot of people. Humour is certainly on my list of theme topics. At the moment I'm debating whether to kick off with a theme or a length challenge... it may soon be poll time ;D
