Wild Earth: African Plains Edition
Spanish Language Version
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Project Description:
Wild Earth: African Plains Edition is a fully interactive, motion-based, photo-safari attraction for the museum, zoo, aquaria, FEC, LBE and theme park market. Two guest “Volunteers”, a driver and a photographer, are guided through the adventure by two guide characters, Prof. Ron N. Wilde and the Journalist, Sarah N. Getty. These are the characters you will provide voiceover for.
The entire adventure happens in the confines of a rattling safari vehicle that is lurching across the plains, fording rivers and jumping rocks. The Prof. and Sarah must sometimes shout from the back seat to be heard over the trumpeting elephants and roaring engine. Video can be provided of sample ride experiences [in English], but because of the interactive, and therefore unpredictable, nature of the experience, the voiceover should not be created to synchronize with the sample video.
It is a fast-paced, lively 3.5 minute adventure. There are 3 major story branches, each with a sub branch, for a total of 6 story variations with significant script overlap. The final script [formatted, with notes and direction comments] is 44 pages and over 4500 words. The actual lines for both characters are about 11 pages and 2200 words total [unformatted and without notes]. Below are 2 sample sections of the script, both in the original English and the Spanish translation. If you have comments on the translation, please feel free to pass them on to us.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1 Male Character, Spanish language, non-union:
Prof. Ron. N. Wilde is a middle-aged veteran of many years in the rough, wild world. He’s a healthy male specimen from the American Southwest. He has a sense of humor. He’s the source for useful info, a quick factoid, or a bad joke at just the right time.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1 Female Character, Spanish language, non-union:
Sarah N. Getty is a smart, metropolitan journalist, on assignment in the wild Serengeti for the first time. She is in her mid-thirties. She is the naive voice of the guest Volunteers, asking the questions they might, if they could. Sarah has read about the Serengeti, but has no direct experience, so her knowledge is “book” knowledge, sometimes applied incorrectly. She’s ready for adventure and not afraid of it, but she is in awe of what she sees. She’s European. She’s young at heart, but not a child.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Deliverables:
Audio files in .wav format, 16 bit, mono, 44kHz, PCM uncompressed
Each line saved as a separate file, using the following naming convention: X_Ynna_Z_Tn, where X= P or S for Professor or Sarah, Ynna = alphanumeric code given for each line in the script after the character name, Z=A,B,C… [and so on] for the line within the Ynna section, Tn=the take number if alternate takes are provided for a given line.
For example, in the following script sample #1, the second take of the Professor’s second line, starting with, “O, no le preste atención, “ would be named: P_B01_B_T2.wav. A solitary take of his third line would be named: P_B01B_A.wav
The files could be delivered to an FTP site. A CD overnight/second-day is preferred.
A phone patch for the recording is preferred for monitoring and directing the session. We are located on the US East Coast.
Delivery is immediate. The final files are due by May 31st.

SARAH - B01
¡Cuidado, Profesor!
PROFESSOR – B01
O, no le preste atención, Señora Getty. Ella solamente quiere un motor caliente y una vista del menú. Pero dejen sus manos dentro del vehículo durante el paseo.
[Cheetah PERKS UP as sound of RUMBLING begins and grows louder]
PROFESSOR – B01B
El almuerzo ha llegado. ¡Vámosnos!
[Enter from behind a HERD OF ZEBRA which envelops the car as it runs past. Car engine roars, making the cheetah scramble up the windshield, out of sight, then back into frame as it begins to give chase to the herd. Car can move.]
[IF PLAYER DOES NOT MOVE FOR 3 SECONDS:]
PROFESSOR – B02
Empecemos la carrera! Conductor, la válvula reguladora esta a tu izquierda, muévela hacia delante para que empecemos a andar; espero que sepas como usar el volante.
[If they figure it out - ]
SARAH – B03
¡Siga esa manada!
[They start to follow. Rumbling at its loudest as the car moves along with the herd. Cheetah veers off to the outskirts of the herd where younger zebras are.]
PROFESSOR – B04
Las cebras son un poco grandes, aún para una cheetah adulta – parece que hoy no va a comer.
[The car flies along through a valley, running along with a herd of zebras. Ahead is a break in the rock face.]
PROFESSOR – B04
En algún lugar alrededor de aquí, este valle se divide en dos. La manada probablemente se dividida.
[An enormous baobab tree looms ahead.]
SARAH – B04
¡La veo! ¡Justo antes de ese gran árbol baobab!
PROFESSOR – B04
¿Conductor, es tu decisión, izquierda o derecha?
[Half of the herd splits off and flows into the left side trail.]
SARAH – B04
O, hola, voluntarios, yo soy Sarah Getty con la Wild Earth Weekly. Mucho gusto.
PROFESSOR – B04
¡Ah, Si! ¡Bienvenidos! Profesor Ron N. Wilde, a su servicio. ¡Jefe de investigación, aventurero extraordinario, y en general, un humano perfecto.

Hello there, volunteers!
[Cheetah CLIMBS UP onto the hood, SNIFFS the glass, TURNS AROUND and stares into the distance.]
SARAH - B01
Heads up, Professor!
PROFESSOR – B01
Oh, don't mind her, Ms. Getty. She just wants a warm engine and a nice view of the menu. But keep your hands inside the vehicle at all times.
[Cheetah PERKS UP as sound of RUMBLING begins and grows louder]
PROFESSOR – B01B
Lunch has arrived! Let’s move out!
[Enter from behind a HERD OF ZEBRA which envelops the car as it runs past. Car engine roars, making the cheetah scramble up the windshield, out of sight, then back into frame as it begins to give chase to the herd. Car can move.]
[IF PLAYER DOES NOT MOVE FOR 3 SECONDS:]
PROFESSOR – B02
Off to the races! Driver, the throttle's on your left, push it forward to get us going; hopefully you know what the steering wheel does.
[If they figure it out - ]
SARAH – B03
Follow the herd!
[They start to follow. Rumbling at its loudest as the car moves along with the herd. Cheetah veers off to the outskirts of the herd where younger zebras are.]
PROFESSOR – B04
Zebras are a little big, even for a fully grown cheetah – it won’t be eating today.
[The car flies along through a valley, running along with a herd of zebras. Ahead is a break in the rock face.]
PROFESSOR – B04
Somewhere around here this valley divides in two. The herd will probably split.
[An enormous baobab tree looms ahead.]
SARAH – B04
I see it! Just before that large baobab tree!
PROFESSOR – B04
Driver it’s your choice, left or right?
[Half of the herd splits off and flows into the left side trail.]
SARAH – B04
Oh, and hi, volunteers, I'm Sarah Getty with Wild Earth Weekly. It's a pleasure.
PROFESSOR – B04
Ah, yes! Welcome! Professor Ron N. Wilde, at your service. Head of research, adventurist extraordinaire, and all around perfect human specimen!

Sample script section #2
Spanish Translation
-------------------------------------------
[A1 - IF THEY GO LEFT AROUND JUNGLE]
[The jungle whizzes past on the right, as you come out into a clearing with a few trees. The path to this point is extremely bumpy. In the clearing, eating (more on ground level - a few from trees) is group of giraffes. Flowing behind the giraffes, in the distance, is the river we just crossed.]
[Reveal: two giraffes are necking]
SARAH – B11
¡Mira! Las jirafas están mostrando sus cuellos! ¡Pára así puedes sacar unas fotos!
PROFESSOR – B11
Quizas las tendríamos que dejar un poco solas
SARAH – B11
Realmente, lo que hacen es pelear entre dos jirafas machos, para ver quien es el que manda.
PROFESSOR – B11
Bueno, cuando terminen de pelear, se besarán y ser amigos.

Look! The giraffe's are necking! Stop and get some pictures!
PROFESSOR – B11
Maybe we should give them some privacy.
SARAH – B11
Actually, "necking" is a fight between two male giraffes to see who's the boss.
PROFESSOR – B11
Well, maybe after they’re done necking, they’ll kiss and make up.
