    I say "challenge" for lack of a better word.

    Ok, so here's the deal. Earlier this year, one of our projects in Communications Tech was to totally recreate the audio from a movie trailer from scratch, using the full unedited songs and a ginormous freaking library of sound effects. I did 500 Days of Summer. We were also supposed to dub it, and I did that too, but because I had to do my dubbing at home, I had to do the male voices as well and it sounded totally stupid once I added the voices.

    I DIGRESS. I kept a version of what I made without voices, and I'm quite happy with it despite some minor frustrations with cutting the songs, so I figured I'd give it to the dubbing community here and see what you guys can make of it. Again, the word "challenge" is used loosely; there is no prize for a winning dub or anything and there's no real set way of doing this. You can do all the voices by yourself or just do one character or collaborate with someone -- I don't really care.

    And there's no set time to have this done by. At all. I'm just going to leave this here indefinitely and see what happens.

    Here's the original trailer for reference: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PsD0NpFSADM

    Here's the dub-ready trailer that I made: http://www.mediafire.com/?3rqaxa31x04f3
    Please let me know if the download isn't working and I'll try to remedy it.

    Here's the script of the trailer if you need it:
    Summer: I love the Smiths.

    Tom: Sorry?

    Summer: I said I love the Smiths. - You... You have great taste in music.

    Tom: You like the Smiths?

    Summer: Yeah.

    To die by your side is such a heavenly way to die...


    I love ‘em.

    Tom: Holy-

    Narrator: This is the story of boy meets girl. The boy, Tom Hanson, grew up believing that he’d never truly be happy until the day he met “The Oneâ€. The girl, Summer Finn, did not share this belief. You should know up front; this is not a love story.

    Summer: I think we should stop seeing each other.

    Rachel: Just like that?

    Tom: Just like that.

    Rachel: Start from the beginning and tell us what happened.

    McKenzie: I tried to talk to her in the copy room. She’s totally not having it.

    Tom: Maybe she was just in a hurry.

    McKenzie: And maybe she’s an uppity, better than everyone super skank.

    Tom: In college, they called me Perfectly Adequate Hanson.

    Summer: They used to call me “Anal Girlâ€. - ...I was very... neat and organized.

    McKenzie: So do you have a boyfriend?

    Summer: No. Who needs it? We’re young. Might as well have fun while we can.

    Tom: Wait. What happens if you fall in love?

    Summer: You don’t believe that, do you?

    Tom: What? It’s love, it’s not Santa Clause.

    I think it’s official. I’m in love with Summer. I love how she makes me feel.

    Did you ever even have a boyfriend.

    Summer: Well of course.

    Tom: What happened? Why didn’t they work out?

    Summer: What always happens: life.

    McKenzie: Get over her.

    Tom: I don’t wanna get over her. I wanna get her back.

    Summer: We’ve been like Sid and Nancy for months now.

    Tom: We have some disagreements, but I hardly think I’m Sid Vicious.

    Summer. No. I’m Sid.

    Tom: Oh, so I’m Nancy?

    Go forth, my pretties. c:
