Today is the birthday of our great friend, Raze. I believe I speak for the entire staff when I say, it’s been nothin’ but a blast working with him, so let’s all raise our glasses (hopefully filled with alcohol) to Raze!
Happy Birthday, buddy!
So, Raze. Are you going to give her what she wants?
-UTW
EDIT (19/3/2012): A couple of you have asked me for more direction regarding the slides. Here are some notes I’ve jotted down on what I’m imagining this to look like at the moment, though you’re of course free to go with your own interpretation.
——————————————-
The Fate/Zero season 1 Bluray box set came with a drama CD about Kiritsugu’s and Irisviel’s first days together, and I mentioned in a previous post that I wasn’t sure if I’d translate them. I’m currently leaning towards yes, but here at UTW we always strive to go the extra mile when possible, and I figured it’d be nice if we could get some of you artists out there involved in this fan effort.
I’m looking for one or more people to draw up a slideshow of images to go with the events that transpire in the drama CD. The images don’t have to be full-blown colored and rendered (since I understand how long that would take); they can even just be tastefully-done sketches, as long as they are appropriate and match what’s happening. Since these tracks in the drama CD are pretty much just dialogues between Kiritsugu and Irisviel, I estimate that each track won’t need more than 3-4 images (some of them can be reused across tracks, too), though the actual number would be entirely up to you, of course.
You can find the translation for the first track below:
The audio you can grab here or from the usual sources.
If you’re interested, go ahead and try drawing images to go with the first track. Send me an email by next week so I know you’re interested, along with any images you have completed so far. Feel free to also link to them here by writing a comment to this post.
If you can’t draw (like me), do help us out by contacting skilled artists you might know, or by spreading the word.
If this works out, we’ll have these nice little video slideshows with the original drama CD audio and timed subtitles for you guys. If it doesn’t and I decide to go ahead and translate the rest of the drama CD anyway, we’ll probably just release the translations through the site and in the batch torrent.
As for the episodes and other specials, we’ve decided to throw them out as they get done via XDCC and DDL; there will be no torrents until the final batch torrent at the end. We should have the first episode or two and the first Einzbern Consultation Room special ready by the end of this weekend.
This group is so good, I dare not utter their name. Thought I’d pick up Nozoki Ana today because Raze said it was fucking awesome, and I have to agree. Good series always get good groups, and I’ll be showing you an example of good scanlating.
<@Raze> OH GAWD
<@Raze> IT’S SEXHAIR, MAJIKOI VERSION
Be sure to vote for team Light over at TeamLiquid: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=309034 for helping us fix the channel limitation problem!
See you next week! Or something!
Thanks for Socratics101 for the better channel, come visit at: http://livestream.com/bukkit
For the first time ever, UTW will be streaming the MIKUNOPOLIS concert (subtitles provided by Doremi Fansubs!), and we’re inviting all fans to come and join us for the fun!
The fun begins at 7:00PM EST (-5 UTC) Saturday, February 4th on livestream (the channel will go public at 6:00PM EST) with a special pre-airing, followed by the actual concert. If we’re feeling up to it, we may leave the steam on for the previous concerts (or whatever else we feel like streaming).
Please note that this is stream quality, and you’re welcome to join us even if you decide to watch this on your own computer. We will be using IRC and livestream as our source for communication.
True fans of Hatsune Miku should remember to purchase the blu-ray!
I’m a bit late, but happy new year! Enjoy it and enjoy having to write 2012 out now because that just fucking sucks balls.
Be sure to get drunktoo, because it’s good for you.
ENJOY 2012, GUYS!
Here’s the new layout! UTW 2.0, activate! Minimalist design, go!
It’s near completion, but there are still some bugs. If anyone spots any bugs or errors they find, I’d love to hear them. Also, if you have any suggestions to the layout itself (design, banner, etc), let me know and we’ll get started on it right away.
Hopefully everyone enjoys the new design.
(As everyone should already know the obvious message).
Changed the layout design. Special thanks to Balance` for the banner. Check out his stuff here!
I’m still working out some of the other issues (like the footer).
This, ladies, is my new coffee mug. After the break you will be given a better photograph.
My questions are:
Passing grade is 50%.
…then you missed out!
and…
Thanks to everyone who stuck around and discussed it. Had a lot of fun this weekend watching Diablo III and SC2 panels, as well as these amazing games.
I’ll get back to subbing after I calm down from that win.
From left to right: Daiz, Kusion, Eightsin, __ar, commander`A, Raze.
I believe this is my first post here. And to think I’m popping my cherry to blog about __ar’s age… Le sigh. Anyway, I’d like to wish __ar a happy birthday from me and on behalf of the entire UTW staff. No, just kidding. No one from the staff even knows about his birthday nor they care about it. Raze is probably out drooling over chicks. Kusion must be busy scheming something new. fnord, well… Uh, fnord is being fnord. Eightsin is most likely busy watching Chinese cartoons (yes, sarcasm here. I mean Japanese shitty cartoons). Daiz is sitting in a corner thinking about ways to kill himself after doing all those signs in IM@S. Zir0h and Bob69 are trying to act cool as usual (but I still love Zir0h-chan <3). So there we have it, no one cares about him but me.
About __ar, the old man's stepping into his early 30's, which means we – the staff – will be even more annoyed by his blogging and you, my dear leechers, will get slower releases. Yes, all these slow releases are produced courtesy of __ar. He wants everything to be perfect. We'd spent HOURS encoding an episode while it could be easily done within an hour. But no, he needs to have everything 101% perfectly. He'd spend hours doing useless signs that no one would even bother reading just because it was in the script. I wonder what he does in bed…? "Hey baby, put your dick inside me already… I can't take it anymore! I WANT YOU INSIDE ME IMA SUGU!" "Yo hold ya horses homie, imma calculate the coordinates of interaction for our intercourse so we could have a perrrrrrfect one!" *after 2 hours* "Seriously…?" "Almost there!"
Anyway, jokes aside, __ar is like the old man of this group. He does everything that no one else bothers to do. Like I had some :issues: yesterday and couldn't work on Kamimemosomething, so he had to jump into the scene to save the day by doing my work too. Like a wise man once said: "All the world's a stage, and all the men and women merely players: they have their exits and their entrances; and one man in his time plays many parts, his acts being seven ages." Though I still won't wish you a honest happy birthday unless you show me a pic of yourself or talk to me on Skype. I mean, you've seen and heard me a thousand times but you still won't show me any pics or talk to me, which is totally unfair.
With that being said, I shall end my blogging here. Happy birthday big guy <3.
