VRChat has a surprisingly similar system for effects/facial expressions etc. It's crazy how fast everyone adapts to it. For example each hand has; thumbs-up / rock&roll / point / fist / open-hand / neutral / finger-gun, each making your character do a different expression/effect. You can do a lot with those 14 different gestures, and can combine them (Like how you combine Ctrl+C) for even more, and it becomes like a second language or keyboard once you're forced to use/do it for long enough.
How is that hard, remember 30 hand gestures??? Is the bar for hard work so low nowadays? Have you ever done roofing in august? That is a hard work, very hard labour. Walking around the disney park and gesturing to kids is NOT hard work for Gods sake stop it. Its insulting to people who have hard jobs. This is vacation for me, if my boss told me to do this for a week I would consider it a paid time off
@mudza92 Ok calm your tits buddy I think he means its complex Which it is, you have to improv a sentence with the limited dialogue options one will have with this sort of thing.
Part of this is true..HOWEVER they can make their own convos as well. The helmet they wear also makes their voice sound like stormtrooper too. So its easy to start a convo with them if you try hard enough
I thought so... because some things I've heard them say in videos seemed a little too specific (in response) to what was said to them that would seem odd to be a pre-recorded audio clip. Hmm..
Partially agree because it would be nice that they would be able to have more flexibility with what is said but then they would be more main characters and would steal attention from the person they escort LT/Kylo.
Some people have been theorizing the absence of a voice changer inside the helmet is to keep them from going off-script. This makes no sense to me, because what would keep a face character from going off script? I think there should be a mechanism in place for stormtroopers to have personable interactions with guests. In my opinion, it’s awkward when you meet a character that can’t communicate back.
I think they should have both. They can use the pre-recorded stuff for most interactions, but actually speak to people in more individual interactions, so they can genuinely react to what someone says to them. If that makes sense. I know I'm not describing it that well. Lol
its interesting, but imo I wish they'd just hire improv actors, like they used to. I mean they do it for California Adventure at avengers campus, and other resistence members as well.
I actually thought of recording some voice lines from the clone wars putting a speaker in a phase 2 helmet and put a remote control in a blaster and say stuff like. We got a bunch of shinies. General Skywalker For the republic Eat laser clankers Etc. See how the storm troopers react.
I noticed that the questions don't match up with what they say and I was wondering that. I feel like it would be much easier to just stay in character but let them speak...
I thought they were using voice changer. I thought the people inside the suits were actually talking, and they use a voice changer to change their voice.
I don’t if I believe this. I have seen so many videos of interactions with storm troops that are so specific. There was one I saw with a kid dressed as an ewok and they spoke specifically about how they tamed it and stuff? Unless they have hundreds of voice lines
They pointed at him and it said look at that creature, put their palm forward and it said halt right there, put their fingers up to their eyes and it said we are watching you. It’s just sign language gestures triggering pre recorded statements
Oh man so it’s not voice changes Damn because I was thinking I was actually gonna buy one of those helmets thinking it was going to make me sound like a storm trooper 😢
@NickzAndMikz There are plenty of videos of park employees talking about it behind the scenes! It is always good to learn more so I would erge you to search up disneys behind the scenes batuu park! I hope you find what your looking for.
That’s not true. The amount of gestures and the possibility of failing to make the right one in the right moment is simply not worth the effort. More than likely there’s a cast watching them and triggering the voices.
What? Have you never heard of sign language? All they are using is a glove that recognizes the hand movement and triggers a sound. Watch them for 30 seconds and it’s actually very easy to tell what they’re about to say
I thought all the talking was live and they just had voice changers in their helmets lol. Wouldn't that be easier? Need a lot more training though so you don't curse out a kid haha.
Takes away from the experience.... they're not supposed to be droids.... give em high quality voice changers in the helmets, Disney can definitely afford it if they can make a crappy lightsaber.
Which is odd, since the non-masked cast members don't seem to have a problem, and in fact have been noted as staying remarkably on-script for their character.
@@VulpisFoxfire in sw disney kind Obsessed with canon that why the character don't interact with other from different era unlike disney princess all together from different era or even world
Never noticed this in the original trilogy. My guess is it is probably more modern star wars where they had the actors use more hand gestures due to the helmets covering the facial expression. A lot of directors struggle with masks/helmets for this reason. Chances are some star wars fan fiction (I think they call it extended universe now?) noticed it and decided to write a backstory based on how soldiers in the real world use hand gestures for clear communication when audio isn't an option.
It actually makes the performances more fascinating because they have to memorize these hand gestures to get the right response.
I would almost say that it could be similar to learning ASL, because you can learn the phrases/gestures .
@@PrincessandScoundrel Yeah I would agree. I wonder how long they study for and how many responses are there.

@@NarcissisticApethan do better
oh wow.....stuff like this is what holds my tiny lil attention span
Princess and Scoundrel, now with bite-size nuggets of info!
Their work is not that easy. They have to adapt on the fly and remember each hand gesture.
I think that is so under appreciated because there is learning this skill all of it and then in full armor.

They probably have like a multi week training for this stuff lol
I though they just have a voice changer in the helmet but if I think about it I guess it would be pretty hard to find people with such similar voices
The voice changer could work because that is what many of the 501st troopers do but I think it prevents the actors from going off script
bruh
Damn i thought theyre just hella advanced helmets and they were coming up with some of the stuff on the spot.
Wow, we always thought they just had a voice filter in the mask, and they just love haming up the performance because it's fun.
Is this why whem you confuse the stormtroopers they just turn to eachother and stare at eachother in complete silence😂
I do wish they would mic up the helmets with a voice modifier and just let the actors use their own voice rather than just using prerecorded clips.
Surprised they don't just have a talk box.
Love these fun facts 👏🏼
Kudos to them like- my respect and admiration goes up and beyond and already was before this but now it became even more
This makes sense it’s all pre recorded lines, which struck me as off with some interactions.
I was trying to figure out how they were sticking to the script.

Hmm..
I would like it much more if they talked by themselfes. For me this always sounds like a ragdoll with 5 different lines.

I never understood why they dont just talk. In canon, stormtroopers are human. So why wouldn't they sound different.
I think to prevent a trooper decides to go off the script
@Princess and Scoundrel I have heard that disney prioritizes consistency over experience. So that probably is the reason.
It also makes sense comfortability wise, if a trooper loses their voice a few hours into shift that would be problematic.
@@localobug3034Disney is a soulless corporation, can’t have employees thinking for themselves
its interesting, but imo I wish they'd just hire improv actors, like they used to. I mean they do it for California Adventure at avengers campus, and other resistence members as well.
i thought they just had voice changers in their helmets
You would be able to hear their real voice when they’re standing a foot away from you
thats so COOL THANKS
MORE OF THESE PLEASEEE
I always wondered how it worked. Thanks for this
I actually thought of recording some voice lines from the clone wars putting a speaker in a phase 2 helmet and put a remote control in a blaster and say stuff like.
We got a bunch of shinies.
General Skywalker
For the republic
Eat laser clankers
Etc.
See how the storm troopers react.
So dope!
I thought they had button gloves like Dr Eggman...
I always thought there was employees sitting in a room somewhere and choosing the correct voice lines for the occasion.
Me too. Like watching from afar
I noticed that the questions don't match up with what they say and I was wondering that. I feel like it would be much easier to just stay in character but let them speak...
They could have just used a voice enhancing device inside the mask
Job description includes being incredibly good at Bioware/Bethesda games
I find this slightly concerning. Wouldn't it be cheaper and easier to just let them talk normally, but train them on what to say?
I thought they were using voice changer. I thought the people inside the suits were actually talking, and they use a voice changer to change their voice.
I don’t if I believe this. I have seen so many videos of interactions with storm troops that are so specific. There was one I saw with a kid dressed as an ewok and they spoke specifically about how they tamed it and stuff? Unless they have hundreds of voice lines
i just saw that video too!
They pointed at him and it said look at that creature, put their palm forward and it said halt right there, put their fingers up to their eyes and it said we are watching you. It’s just sign language gestures triggering pre recorded statements
They have a ton of voice lines, so if someone is dressed as something from Star Wars, there are going to be at least a few relevant lines
guys out here speaking it Jutsu
I knew it had to be the hands.. but wow 😯
Oh man so it’s not voice changes Damn because I was thinking I was actually gonna buy one of those helmets thinking it was going to make me sound like a storm trooper 😢
There may not have voice changers but there are places to add a voice changers to a helmet to replicate the stormtroopers.
Huh i always wonder how they do that well you learn something everyday lol
Well that's something I wondered if they actually talked or if it was pre recorded now im sad and broken hearted
Woooooow. Thats impressive
But they do somehow say things that are literally about the unique encounters
Tbh, fascinating.
That’s kinda fucking cool
This blew my mind
they don't talk normally and their voices come out that way??
It would be cool if they had a voice changer and just talked
What!! Thats so cool
I was just wondering how they talk. I figured there was a voice actor watching from a park camera speaking for them.
Yea, the Disney troopers differ from the 501st/Cosplayers because typically 501st Troopers have voice changers and just do some voice acting.
and I heard they don't really pay well for that...
How do we know this? I never have found a primary source
They don't know
Because disney has talked about it
@@localobug3034 Curiously, where?

@@localobug3034 Thank you! I've been trying to find a video where it's actually talked about because a lot seems like speculation

BRUH THE VIDEO LITERALLY BELOW THIS IS A STORM TROOPER SAYING "We're watching you"
Cue the “Always watching Wazowsky” 😳
Interesting
this is crazy
I thought all the talking was live and they just had voice changers in their helmets lol. Wouldn't that be easier? Need a lot more training though so you don't curse out a kid haha.
That is probably a main reason why they don’t.
Wow I had no idea
Takes away from the experience.... they're not supposed to be droids.... give em high quality voice changers in the helmets, Disney can definitely afford it if they can make a crappy lightsaber.
This is now not originally.
Makes sense.
Kinda forces them to be more active not a second to relax
you say their hands activate gestures..... do you mean to say the gestures they make with their hands activate different vocalized phrases????
How do you become one of these costumed actors? I would be more than willing to move to orlando to do that
If only Disney would put this much effort into their movies
Damn, i thought they had a voice changer in the helmeet.
Yup. Meanwhile, they're allowed to be paid less because they don't technically have "spoken lines". 🙄
Probably easier if they are equipped with a voice changer 😅
All that effort tp ensure employees do not go off script. Disney is the only way. Hail Disney.
Which is odd, since the non-masked cast members don't seem to have a problem, and in fact have been noted as staying remarkably on-script for their character.
@@VulpisFoxfire in sw disney kind Obsessed with canon that why the character don't interact with other from different era unlike disney princess all together from different era or even world
I thought all stormtroopers were clones of Jenga Fett. Wouldn't they ALL have a New Zealand accent?
Clones of Jango Fett are Clone Troopers. Stormtroopers, as seen on Star Wars movies Episode 4-9, are conscripts of different people.
If clone troopers you would be correct but stormtroopers at this point in the story could be anyone 🤓🤓🤓
I thought they were just Italians....

This is how they do it in the Disney parks. Movies are still voiced over 👍
Lol
Wheres your information coming from
Disney employees themselves, you can literally see videos of them explaining how it works
So how tf they be responding to shit like kids pretending mind trick them and shit. Cause I’ve seen ts before no way that’s scripted
Citation needed.
Fake news!! They be having whole conversations with u not enough hand movements for that buddy
Do they have video reference for their gesture dictionary in their masks?
They can say what ever they like. They talk about tattoos ect.. they don’t use gestures
Explain the ewok video then?
I thought that the person inside the suit actually talked.
Or....since they are wearing masks they have to express themselves another way. Like Pedro Pascal has to in The Mandalorian
That may be the case
