@foreverlurk So true. I used to make YouTube videos (in a different life lol) and it was very difficult to edit myself I’ve wondered before if it would help if I used some kind of voice modification software or something so it’s not quite my own voice… Maybe worth a try!

@foreverlurk I must be the only one who wants to hear every single one of your voices Expose yourselves!!

@SmolChlo No I’m with you! I just want more and more of those giant ASMR stories hehe

@SmolChlo I would, except my mouth is usually full.

You’re not alone, just talking about my own self-consciousness. Je serais beaucoup plus confiant en français, ceci étant dit.

Heard about those! There should be more M/f ASMR stories out there, told from the SW’s perspective! In a sea of GTS/SM offering, there’s like only… one? two?

@foreverlurk That’s exactly what I wanted to make once upon a time. And then I recorded two sentences and as soon as I heard it back I noped out of there lol

Interesting. I’ll likely listen to more though I worry the focus will be mainly on F/m. Which would just make sense since Aborigen did say that was their preference. Still, nice that they’re trying to get more representation of use out there.

In my opinion, G/t ASMR (where the performer looms over and addresses the camera as if it is a tiny person) only really works if the performer is willing to expose their whole face. Voice is important, but you need to have their eyes on you.

@Olo I actually kind of prefer if it’s 100% audio personally (or if it’s not, I usually don’t look at the screen). Whenever it’s a POV video of someone looming, I just can’t get it out of my head that it’s clearly just a camera on the floor, and that takes me out of it for whatever reason. Go figure!

@littlest-lily cameras on phones are wonders for smol perspectives, but the illusion is also very easy to break if it’s not done carefully or thoughtfully. Though I imagine we’re an audience that’s a bit harder to please since we’re much more perceptive and sensitive to this kind of stuff (hence also why I also prefer audio at this stage).

Atlas ASMR put out a really nice video a couple of years ago which is one of the very few ASMR acting videos that I still REALLY like. Wonderful angle and the sound is just…MMPH. You may have already seen it, but sharing for anyone curious https://youtu.be/f3cR9ALOacE?si=hxyd5s-3Cq8eyQJO

@SmolChlo I can ham up the Australian drawl. That tends to be a pleaser for some reason (jk, I know why - we sound ridiculous).

@littlest-lily I hear ya, I listen to those baddies on repeat

@Olo let them ladies out!!

i am insane

Wouldn’t it be important to, like, up the bass or something, if you’re doing a giant voice? Because unless it’s just a tall person or a mini-giant, I’d think that much of a size difference would effect how people hear each other. Hell, after a certain point the audio should shake, as if it’s in a high wind, because they’re so small compared to the speaker than their breath is high wind.

When you’re giant enough, in other words, you are as much a natural phenomena for the tiny as you as a living creature; you are the land they stand on, of course, but your very voice is thunder.
