A Realm Redubbed Contest (NA) - Discussion Thread

[Spy]

Hello everyone, I apologize if this question that I am about to ask have been asked already. What I am wondering is, what are decent programs, free of charge, that we can use to enable beginners or non beginners to enter the contest. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance :3

Bandicam is free. I've never used it since I've had fraps, but it works. Only thing is you have to put up with an ugly watermark on your video with the free version. (Unless they changed it, as it's been 4 years since I last looked for video recording software)

For the serious entries, on cutscenes that refer to the player by name, are we allowed to use pronouns? For example, my character's name is Dragon Fruit, and in some cutscenes, npcs refer to her as Miss Fruit. I don't really want to be saying something so silly in a serious entry.

Another question, if possible:

Does "cutscene" stands only for those that can be viewed trought the INN book? Or it can be some of the in-between quests that aren't recorded on the undying journey?

I'm having a hard time figuring this out... We have to read verbatim, from a cutscene (totally killing the creativity and fun that this event should inspire by the way, just my opinion though), but most (if not all) cutscenes from the inn book are voiced, so no clue how I'm supposed to voice over an already voiced cutscene (is this event really asking participants to pay for some fancy video editing software, capable of taking out audio?)... Can I get some clarification here, or advice?

Um, it's not allowing me to edit my previous comment but that comment was meant for the discussion thread (apologies), so if you could move it there and deleted this comment after, that'd be super awesome, and sorry for posting in the wrong thread!

@Elmeron
You may free-style your script in the Comedy category. Also, your in-game volume settings let you mute voice audio. Furthermore, there are plenty of un-voiced scenes to choose from.

So, I can be an entrant and just post my submission even not living in EU, NA or JP, but I can't be a contestant?

I want to know because I don't live in any of these (I have some family at US) but I really want to take part in this event.

Apparently not, but it would be nice if those of us living outside of NA could be thrown some kind of bone.

I have a JP account because I live in Japan, but I am not allowed to enter any of the english language contests. Lots of my fc live in sg with NA accounts, but can never enter anything either.

This is a worldwide game, and when they only offer NA, EU or JP accounts it would be nice if they could take into consideration those outside.

We can't even help collaborate even if we readily accept we can't win a prize? Seems needlessly strict.

So what programs can I use, i.e. what can I use to download or save the CS's to edit them and/or add voice over dubs to them. What do you all recommend?

I really want to know this as well! I'm super interested in participating but I don't know anything about video and audio stuff...
