Hi, i saw this on youtube a while ago and I thought it was really interesting and beautiful but i had a question about the voice acting. It seems like its ai generated or some tts program, and if so, will it be replaced in the future? Some of the line delivery is just a bit strange and it seems like a shame because the writing itself is really nice.

Yes, voice is AI trained on public domain audio sources I've found. That's also disclosed in the credits. I'm unhappy with how some of it sounds but it's the best option for the moment. Even imperfect voice over has made an astonishing difference in my viewership.
My plan is to crowdfund for real actors when the script is locked but that probably won't be until the end of the project. Right now I still have to work part time jobs to support myself, I don't have the ability to contract work from others.
