Taking Care of Your Shrunken Princess ASMR

Olo

@foreverlurk ASMR has mutated into many different things since it started over ten years ago, and one of those mutations is elaborate and creative roleplaying. That’s what I think we should be aiming for: a gratifying narrative that is performed by a single voice. Tingles and “triggers” are distractions from what should be a theatrical monologue.

@Olo Yeah, I’ve seen the word “audio stories” which is perhaps more accurate here. Although I guess that could maybe also refer to something told in the 3rd person, like an actual audiobook, as opposed to more of a roleplaying type thing.

That’s something I’ve thought of before too… I actually tried to record the “ASMR” script I mentioned before and hated the process so much that I gave up on it - combination of hating to hear my own words in my own voice and feeling so awkward about “acting”. But I’ve also wondered if telling a story, perhaps still from first person but without the same level of “acting” to the microphone, might be an alternative.

@littlest-lily Heck yes girl if you get around to coming up with something we can use send it my way

@MightyTinyGiant Elle has an account here, too, although she doesn’t log in that often.

@skysayl Yeah exactly! I was imagining it might still be more RP-ish if it was told in first and second person, but otherwise this is sorta what I was imagining.

But that was just me thinking it might be easier to record for me personally. If I write a script for ya I could do whatever! The one I’ve written before was very much an “acting” style one, not an audiobook style one. I would just give you that script, but I ended up giving it to another friend to record so that it didn’t go to waste… (who is a guy, meaning I switched out the genders, I’m guessing folks here wouldn’t be interested in SM ASMR so I haven’t shared it haha)

When I used to make these I would pretend my cell phone was a mini recorder that shrunk down with me. And I was using it to document everything that was happening around me. I enjoyed describing the different things that I was experiencing and I noticed the longer I was recording the more easier it was for me to really insert myself into a shrunken role.
Acting nervous or out of breath when I would hear his powerful footsteps coming towards my dollhouse, cage or wherever he likes to keep me. Whispering into the phone and describing the many different things he has done to me… etc lol
It’s so fun bc there’s so many different scenarios

Mad respect to anyone who is able to record themselves to share with others, whether it’s ASMR, roleplaying, radioplay-style, audiobook/narration, etc. I get too weirded out at hearing my own voice that I can’t even bring myself to listen to recordings to practice and improve

littlest-lily

@Olo Haha well then, here you go! https://youtu.be/uwClJ-JRhU0?si=RQQAfvuSqx4cRk8y

This actually reminds me, he did one in the biggo role too, and it’s one of my absolute favorites! I’ve actually been meaning to put together a list of giant ASMR videos and post them here but just haven’t gotten around to it. I’ll share this one now though: https://youtu.be/egP_zxZgKEw?si=NQkrqEWBJNp0VtN5

@SmolChlo I have a friend who is into SCP stuff and even wrote a couple articles. We both like to do exactly this for some of the stories you’ll often find accompanying the articles, it works perfectly for scary dystopian scenarios! I’ve been itching to try a size-themed recording though.

SmolChlo

@skysayl it’s time to scratch that itch! I’d definitely give it a listen This discussion has put me in a role play kinda mood… maybe I’ll practice some recordings later tonight. Shutting off the lights and smoking a lil (if that’s your thing) helps with the creative flow ~

Just seconding the desire for more tiny lady audio roleplays. Audio is the most intimate genre of fiction to me and shrunken woman stuff is maybe some of the rarest and I usually just have to commission it myself, hahaha. I love listening to, writing, and performing audios so if anyone is ever in the mood to collaborate let me know.

It’s so unfair that there are literally hundreds of GTS/SM recordings, and so few SW ones.

About the intimate nature of audio, something I always wanted was a binaural (ie. positional 3D audio) recording simulating a tiny walking around you, say from one shoulder to the next, or on top of your head, or on your neck behind it.

I get goosebumps just imagining this.

@foreverlurk Ooo do you know what kinds of tools/programs are needed to make that kind of effect? I have experience with video editing, so I’ve done some amount of audio editing as a result, but nothing quite like that.
