    Very exciting! And the voice talent is REALLY good. That short segment really breathed some life into all of the concept art and blocking scenes we’ve seen.

  • anon

    i like the voices.. great choice :)

  • Mkuttler

    This makes me even more excited for the final product. Great choices on the voice talent!

    “A Dragon”!

    Naaaah, don’t like it… :)

    Just kidding, but I wonder if lips sync would be better than in Elephant Dreams? I hope so!

  • Acolyte

    Man, awesome choice for the voice talent. Can’t wait to see this implemented with the animation. :)

  • Jean_R

    Scary sequence into the car !!!

    So calm, funny as actors “act” this scene.

    This next step in blender’s duty seems awesome.

    I’ve got “goose bumps,” from listening. This is going to be great! Thanks for sharing this historic moment.

    Voice does not make a successfull project…
    I am really waiting for the punch line.
    really…

    pixnolve: Why was the chicken happy?

    *Punch Line* Everything was eggcellent.

    There’s your punchline! Hopefully you won’t be waiting anymore =)

    Voice and soundtrack is very important(in my opinion 50%),
    example scary movie if you turn sound off some case it will go to comedy movie.

    “The sound and music are 50% of the entertainment in a movie” – George Lucas

    I’m really looking forward to this. Also, will there be a game project of some kind with it? It seems that Sintel lends itself really well to a game setting…

  • Lifeling

    Love it,
    I am already very impressed with the voice talent. And I do agree that sound and music is a very essential part of the film that cannot be overlooked. I am glad you guys have focused on finding these fantastic actors to do the acting!

    Well Done all,
    and thanks for all the hard work you put in.

    AFAIK they’re not doing a game project this time around. At least, not in tandem with Durian. Perhaps they can be convinced to make a game after they’ve finished the movie?

  • toontje

    Oh noooo no no noooooo. Ton has a bald spot.
    On another note, I was very afraid for a repeat of a Elephants Dream like dialogue. In this case the actors are delivering a stellar peformance.

    Damn, my man is going bald…..

  • Gryphon

    So… Sintel and the dragon are kindred spirits now. Interesting twist.

  • Xero

    Hahah ahah yay1
    lol I feel like a little kid jumping up and down because his favorite show is come.

    They sound great to me. Although if I had to critique I’d say the guy could have made his voice sound a little older for the shaman and the woman could have added just a little teenage angst to her voice. lol nah I’m just kidding. I can’t wait to hear more. :3

  • Olaf

    Excellent! Thom Hoffman is a really good voice actor.

  • madturtle

    I like the voices. Its intresting to see how acters are working in a front of a microphone.
    Yes sound and music are important, but first: you tell a story!! Thats the importants part by making a movie.

  • Dave Heinemann

    Where are their accents? Not that I mind understanding every word.
    I agree with Xero, they should act their age! I’m sure they’ll get a good feel for the characters.
    I like the sneak peeks, but this was too short. ;.(

    Great sequence, and good voices.

    Just a technical request : Please, could you use Vimeo instead of YouTube ? YouTube videos are so slow to load on my system !

  • Giovanni Lanfiuti

    I hope the speech track will come split form the others in the DVD secion… In the case someone would do an Italian (or another language) version.

    Great work however!!!

  • greenboy

    hmmm, not really impressed with voices. In my unprofessional opinion the shaman didn’t sound too shamany like. Not bad, but just thinking maybe it could be better.

  • Zynif

    I too was not very impressed with the voices but only when the movie is out will i be able to see if it all fit together ;)

    Oh and i think it is spell Reijn
