Alright I've passed my first assessment on the project, I get to work with the concept I wanted, aww yeah :dummy: I'm juggling this major project along with three other major stakeholders of my near future (*cough* portfolio preparations for university/internship applications *cough*) so I apologise in advance if I don't update as frequently as I hope to. I'm barely alive as I speak lol



Current status of the project:

  • Theme: Solitude & Loneliness
  • Tone: Introspective, dark-ish setting
  • Medium:

    - Motion-Illustration video done using AfterEffects (this is where VAs come in)

    - Collectible cards

  • Script:
    In progress
    18 Jan: Pretty much done. Sent out urgent snippets to Narrator and The Kid.
  • Illustration/Animation phase:

Characters and their voice-actors (BACKUPS WELCOME TO APPLY EVEN IF SLOTS ARE FILLED!!:

  1. Narrator
    Tone of voice is up to interpretation. Male/female.
    Bullet; Green Confirmed VA: NekoHimeAnny
    Bullet; Orange Backup VAs: Phaenur

  2. The Kid / Lone Wolf spirit
    Androgynous kid. High-pitched boy voice, maybe an edgier Tails from the Sonic franchise (could be voiced by a lady).
    Bullet; Green Confirmed VA: TheM-VA
    Bullet; Orange Backup VAs: Abc123-IX

  3. Moose(s) (and their human counterparts). Can have multiple confirmed VAs.
    Wise-sounding, mellow. Need 1 main male voice, supporting male/female voices are welcome!
    Bullet; Green Confirmed VAs: TheJege12 (main),
    Bullet; Orange Backup VAs: ZKCats, (supporting), NekoHimeAnny (supporting) ,

  4. Wolves (and their human counterparts). Can have multiple confirmed VAs.
    Nasty-sounding! Try to sound hoarse/scratchy if possible, otherwise just speaking normally but in a nasty/annoyed tone works too!
    Bullet; Green Confirmed VAs: Explodering, NekoHimeAnny, TigerPegasus
    Bullet; Orange Backup VAs: ???


WANNA HELP ME SURVIVE MY FINAL MONTHS OF COLLEGE?



People who have expressed interest (let me know what you think):

:iconthem-va: - THE KID (CONFIRMED)
:iconphaenur: - NARRATOR (PLACEHOLDER). You might be interested in voicing one of the Wolves?
:iconplayrina: - I've heard your voice work, sorry if I didn't get back to you earlier!! :ohnoes: I appreciate your interest, however I don't think you'd be suited for The Kid. You'd be better fitted as one of the Wolves, if you're interested! Let me know what you think. (I do feel that your mic might be a little on a scratchy side though, I apologise in advance if you aren't shortlisted in the end because of that.)
:iconcarinaconstellation: - Need voice work samples. Interested in the Narrator role but you might wanna consider the Mooses or Wolves?
:iconthejege12: - I know how you sound like, buuut I'm still concerned about the accent... XD (don't worry bro, I have an unfavourable accent too :XD: ) You might fit the main Moose though! :D
:iconsamuraiechidna: - ? Need voice work samples.
:iconstagasus: - I know how you sound like, I think you'd be best fitted for one of the Wolves.

People whom I think could fit in (if you'd like to): 

:iconaxolotlet: - Heheh I know you too well, perhaps you could fit one of the Wolves. ;)
:iconexplodering: - I also know you kinda well lol maybe the Narrator (backup) or one of the Wolves (SPEAK IN YOUR SALTIEST VOICE POSSIBRU YEAAAH)
:iconzkcats: - supporting Moose? (just a few lines)
:icontigerpegasus: - one of the Wolves? (just a few lines)



Before I end this announcement, I just wanna say how MUCH I appreciate everyone's unwavering support in me and my turbulent college years thus far - friend, follower, admired artist, passing commentor - all of you. Thank you. So, so much. Just a few months more!

Huh? :confused: you haven't received my voice sample, yet? Should I just send it directly to you per email?

I can be a wolf or a moose if you think you can use my voice. If there isn't a role that suits my voice it's fine, ya know?
