Looking for voice-actors

Posted by Psi43 - May 29th, 2011


Hello there, newgrounds!

It's time again for me to make a flash and i'm kind of in desperate need of good voice actors with nice quality mics. It's a short animation (42 lines all together, with 3 characters). One of the character spots is already filled.

A little bit about the project;
It's a LockLegion animation, so if you don't like those then you can probably stop reading right here.
Basically it's an office scenario where one of the locks gets fired, that'd be the first episode. Doesn't sound like much but it makes for a great introduction into the series and its characters.
Den is the main character (RSS Lock), he's a somewhat whiny dude, the guy who gets fired.
Yannick (Explosive Lock) is the assistance of the boss. I'm not really sure what he should sound like so surprise me.
Oliver (Pumpkin Lock) is the boss. His voice would be kind of like Cave Johnson from Portal 2 or that guy with the eyepatch from Harvey Birdman.

This is what the animation and art style will look like. I sadly can't continue right now cause right after that the first line of voice acting would start.

If you're interested, here's a little snipped from the script. It'd be great, if you could record a line or two of that for the character you desire:

snipped 1: Den and Yannick
Yannik (Explosive): Oh, well hey I gotta talk to you for a sec.

Den: Wait, check this out first *waves at yannik to make him come over*

Yannik (while walking over): If that's one of your sick brazilian fartporn videos again i swear to god im gonna kill ya

Den: What? No it's -- (interrupted by Yannik)

Yannik: I'm really surprised that you can get off to that sick shit man, what's wrong with you

Den: Um dude, I'm no- (interrupted again)

Yannik: yeah keep telling yourself

Den (after a pause): anyways, look at this *pointing at the screen*, it's a flash I've made *clicks on the mouse button*

snipped 2: Den and Pumpkin
Pumpkin: Good. You see Den, there are 3 kinds of people in this office. Ones that I like. Ones that I dislike and then there's you.

Den: Well at least you don't dislike me then.

Pumpkin: Not what i said. Listen; The people that i like, they're fine. Those who i dislike, i can deal with. You just don't seem to be making the cut. You're fired.

Den: ..the fuck?! Why?

Pumpkin: I don't know, life's a bitch.

Den: You don't know why you fired me?

Pumpkin: What's your favorite number?

Den: 12

Pumpkin: That's the reason. We don't like no people whose favorite number is 12 around here. *claps twice* Yannik, come in please.

Looking for voice-actors


Comments

Yummy. I'm getting right on this. Sent you a PM.

looking forward to it and thanks :)

Interesting, but I don't know how to really make my voice like the locks'. Or do we just make the voice we want and you'll alter it with your own programs?

On top of that, is there anything specific you want for these characters or can we just wing it?

I won't alter the voices in any way, it will be normal voice acting all the way through. No weird computer voices or anything, so just do it normally if you're interested.

For the specific characters:

Pumpkin should sound somewhat like Cave Johnston from Portal 2 (if you haven't played the game, just search for cave johnston portal 2 on youtube, the first video should include all his quotes) or that guy with the eyepatch from harvey birdman.

Den should be somewhat of a whimpy character. I'm not sure what else i can add to that, he should definitely not be some kind of always-crying guy but still kind of a punching-bag.

Yannick is supposed to be the assistance, i don't really have any specific voice for him in mind so feel free to do it any way you like.

Why does everyone need voice actors only a week before Im getting my new mic, once I get it no one will want any. lol

Well just one more week!

just record yourself with your current mic, i won't be paying attention to the quality of the microphone then but instead to the voice acting itself ;).

It will take a while before the flash is done anyways, so it's okay!

Heya, I sent a pm, throwing my name in the hat, but also mentioning I wouldn't be able to get around to recording a snippet. I'll attempt to recant that and get a pumpkin lock voice to you today, if I can swing it.

checked out your audition, pretty fucking great man.

Hmmaybe ill audition ^^

that'd be great, thanks :)

Here's a sample for Pumpkin Lock, unmixed, but gives a rough example:

I'll be auditioning at some point today, for sure.

i'd love to hear

Hmm... I'd like to audition for it but, How should the characters act? what should they sound like. are any of them Female?

Anyways... Here's my demo reel.

<a href="http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/listen/378968">http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/liste n/378968</a>

It's a bit slow though, I've been meaning to record a new one.

[placeholder for a longer comment cause i need to go to bed now, will listen to your demoreel later]

I'd offer my own voice to you if I had the time, psi but atm I am very busy, so I will just wish you luck in your endeavors

aw thanks man, no worries i got some great auditions already.

welp i read the whole script and now i imagined it animated so ive basically seen the movie before it was even finished

there's a lot more than just that small part lmfao

Hey, I wont be able to get it to you until friday or thursday, but I can probably do Den and Pumpkin for you. I'll PM you when I get it up.

I'd be happy if you would try to audition for Den. I already found people for Pumpkin and Yannick, I just need someone to play the role of Den now.

Guess I could I got a stand microphone well getting one today :D

I could talk to you on skype if you want to hear my voice

congrats on the latest sumision was awsome
