Síntese do concurso

We need three short, clean and perfect audio recordings of a middle-aged English man (ideally with a Norfolk accent) shouting these three short phrases:

"Now strike"
"Advance banners"
"Move forward"

We are trying to recreate the voice of Sir Thomas Erpingham (an English Knight, who died in 1428, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomas_Erpingham for more details) shouting commands to his army at the Battle of Agincourt in 1415. It is likely he had a traditional Norfolk accent, although we will consider recordings without a strong accent.

The recording would ideally be made outside, as there should be minimal reverb in the audio recording. Try to ensure there is no background noise in the recording. Leave sufficient silence between the three phrases to allow for editing. The microphone should be far enough away that the recording is clean (no distortion, so please check your levels when you record) but not too far away that it sounds distant. We will add reverb/echo ourselves later if necessary, you should not do any sound post-produciton or processing on the recording. Audio files should be recorded at at least mono 44.1kHz 16 bit (preferably higher), and supplied as uncompressed WAV or AIFF files. You must be able to provide a clean uncompressed audio file.

By entering this contest and sending audio files you agree, should you win the contest, to grant us full, indefinite worldwide rights to use, re-use, edit, modify, adapt, transmit, broadcast, present and re-sell your audio recording(s) with no further royalties due. Only one winner will be selected. We reserve the right not to select a winner if the quality of entries is too poor to pick a good entry.

  Hi Phil - thanks for the recording, very impressive indeed. We're very happy with this, although could I request you do two more takes? 1) At a further distance from the microphone with a much louder shout if possible 2) Again, at a further distant and louder, but without the Norfolk accent? I'm happy to award you the contest and pay immediately if you can offer these too.
