Make your own Voki Instructions

OK, year 8s this is part of your formal assessment so follow the instructions carefully . . .

1. Go to www.voki.com

2. Click on CREATE.

3. Go to Customize Your Character and choose your character’s hair style, face and accessories.

4. Now go to Give It A Voice and choose the microphone icon. Record your Japanese self intro using a microphone. (* You can practise doing a Text to Speak Voki if you want, just be sure to choose Japanese as the language for the voice. Your final submission must be YOUR VOICE ON A MICROPHONE)

5. When you are happy with your voice click DONE. If a check box appears click ‘allow’. Go to Publish and give your Voki a title – eg Daniel’s Voki.

6. When you click PUBLISH a screen will come up asking you to create an account – DO NOT CREATE AN ACCOUNT, CLICK NO THANKS AND CLOSE THE WINDOW!!! When it says ‘Your Voki has been created successfully’ just click CLOSE.

7. You should see a screen now with ‘Add to your site’, ‘Send to a friend’ etc icons on it. On this page choose SMALL as the size of your Voki and copy the web URL at the bottom of the page (For MySpace pages)

8. Now the final step at the bottom of this blog entry choose ‘Leave A Comment’ or click where there are …. posts already there.  Add the URL you just copied to your post. If all of this works when you refresh the blog your voki character should work through a link on your post.

Good Luck! If you get stuck along the way please ask.

My suggestion is you do a practise one just saying Konnichiwa and not worrying about the character too much just to see if it all works. I can delete the practise ones later. 🙂
