Good morning everyone! I keep going thought all auditions to be sure to cast everyone who is the right match for the roles. Once again I would like to mention that there will be several casts for the same role to see how your voice will match with character in the final video to make the decision. (If you won't be chosen after testing you still can receive the video with your voice on it and use it later after our release) The deadline will be changed because of the new characters which appears in upcoming episodes. You're all welcome to try those roles as well. One more photo of Eleven for this project https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/701494306380185631/707051567819391076/screenshot016.png?width=884&height=497 Thank you for your patience.

Hello everyone! This month I will choose few voice actors on same roles, and we will start testing. I will provide few lines for you, direct you to the right way and match your voice with character lips, then we decide which voice matches the best. (How we're going to decide: the voice similarity to original character and acting talent) (If you won't be chosen after testing you still can receive the video with your voice on it and use it later after our release) Thank you for long time waiting, as many of you know, I decided to do animation instead of comic that's why it is taking much longer time than expected.

Have a good day everyone.
This is Angelina Jolie version of Lara Croft (will be used her model as well in a comic) so I hope you can get into her character from the original movie.
She is flirty, smart, sarcastic, royal
IMPORTANT: ADD as many lines as you wish
I need this to see how you can get into the character
Must have British accent; age goes 29+
Here is the moment from the dialogue (3th part) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S6WQQ0zvhvs
Her voice mostly sounds like that - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ppyu8H7Xbs
My name is Lara Croft.
I woke up this morning and I just hated everything.
Everything lost is meant to be found.
They took something from me and I want it back.
It's easier to see thought you that way.
Then I feel sorry for whomever they get to come after you.
You're not that good.
ADD ANYTHING WHAT YOU FEEL WOULD FIT
Eleven from stranger things (could be just like her or more brutal). A girl from the lab who has hidden power and possibility to open portals into upside down
Age: Child-teen
Her voice mostly relaxed, there is a whisper in words, BRUTAL, DEEP, SOFT (don't need to make it girly or childish)
Also, likely if her voice would sound strange/mysterious/ different kind of accent.
The main inspiration for that voice would be young Emily from the dishonored game also Eleven herself of course.
(1st part - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ecK2kqj9S70 )
(2ed 1:40 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hVZMnnCbvJc )
( Narrative version https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N_mp4yJtp14 )
THIS IS IMPORTANT:
When audit mention your age, age range
ADD lines with calm voice which you think would match
(read with emotions) you say soon on day 25 you say soon on day 205 now u say soon in day 326 WHEN IS SOON? Friends. Don't. Lie!
(read with emotions) Nobody saw me. You promised I'd go and I never leave.
Nothing ever happens.
You lie!
No... No!
(relaxed voice)
Lara?
Are you real?
She is coming for you
Main Antagonist in the story. The similar characters would be - Isaacs (Resident Evil movie), Papa (Stranger Things)
Dr. Alexander Isaacs the main prototype for scientist character https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ttgIz02aU0Y
(You can repeat lines from video)
I expect a pretty similar voice and the tone of saying words
Say something you think would fit

Say something you think would fit
The Scientists Lara and Eleven meet in an upside-down world, need minimal voice editing because they wear costumes (horror style)
Say something you think would fit
We all know this friendly Sheriff from the town
I think this character should sound like a Rick Grimes. You can read any lines of Rick Grimes (especially when he is very serious and dangerous)
Say something you think would fit
Any scary sounds
Mother of a lead character; mostly appears in the dark world of Eleven mind/dreams.
She is mysterious, loving, supporting, (even can hear a melody in her voice), teacher kind.
You can do a voice editing (to fit a dream vibe sound), but I would like to hear original as well
Accent must be Sound African/ Australian (can do with American vibes in it). Age goes 29+
She is motherly but at same time somehow shady with secrets, and very mysterious. There will be some twisted action with her but overall this character doesn't have many lines.
For a vibe of this character I would link you The evil within game scenes with dreams and of course the original character of mother of Eleven.
(middle of nowhere, voice appears in a distance) Jane... Jane...wake up!
(Eleven open her eyes. She hears a light breath with a whisper as it is right in front of her, like she is still sleeping) ... Just look at the sky
(Smile) (Jane hear a friendly voice) You will find me there (light laugh) ... come
(Jane feel lost in the ruins, there is an ancient puzzle in front of her, as soon as she puts her hand closer to mysterious wall, she hears her mother again) ... Jane ... Close your eyes, I need to show you something
(Motherly) I love you, Jane
She will be in Eleven's story, helping her to survive something like a post-apocalyptic world.
Eleven will travel with a walkie-talkie. It is one of the longest episodes.
It's will be something like that - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fW9x0Mp64AY
Age: Middle age - youngadult
Note: This character will do a SINGING part - you can sing some kind of lullaby or anything you think would fit
Note: The voice will be on the radio/walkie-talkie (or around upside down)
Voice: Motherly; Caring; Scared; Loving; Curious; Helping
You can edit voice that would be nice to hear how it could sound at the end, but it would be close to original sound of the voice
Say something you think would fit
Baby, I need to know are you alive? Are you safe?
Will, can you hear me?
Eleven? ...Is that your name?
The plague has taken so many, and we must find a cure. When you're near, my heart is at peace.
You have to follow the silence.
Singing lullaby or anything you think would fit.
Here is the introduction of her character - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xgVglhn8YNg
She is ambitious, she loves where she is at the moment, possible to take a control. She is German exile and nightclub Jazz singer, but acts like she owns this place, well probably we can say like that after all.
Her voice need to be strong and confident. Low.

(Calm/sweet) Is it a tattoo you're covering there?

And this is your idea of making enquiries, Untersturmführer?

Sing something Jazzy

He is basically a smart guy who likes computers.
He will be in chapter 1 and maybe in future episodes as well, will have to say a few lines.
Lara where re you?
Let me see...
I found it, I found it!
Be careful it is a dangerous place... well but I don't have to teach you about that kind of stuff
You can add any "nerd" lines
He is the lead of the African hunters. In the story, he will be a voice in Lara's head who keeps scaring and reminding her how dangerous it is to be there, where she is right now.
You can Repeat some lines from the video
Something like that -
They don't rest, they never sleep, they hunt.
Anything that walks their land disappears in the darkness
Inside you will find the place of madness

Will Byers lines

The monsters are near...

You shouldn't be here.
Witch scream
Alan Wake is a bestselling American novelist. He's visiting a strange town where our main characters settle at the moment.
Stephen King once wrote that "Nightmares exist outside of logic, and there's little fun to be had in explanations; they're antithetical to the poetry of fear." In a horror story, the victim keeps asking "Why?" But there can be no explanation, and there shouldn't be one. The unanswered mystery is what stays with us the longest, and it's what we'll remember in the end. My name is Alan Wake. I'm a writer.―Alan Wake
Not required: A line for a dialogue between Alan and Lara at the bar.
Lincoln Clay is a soldier, he returned home and got a letter that he must do one more mission at the laboratory near his hometown.

I saw a kid behind that window but then... she gone

I will need about 3 more people who can help me with posters/scenes creation and renders.
Everyone will have their own scenes so no need to worry about lighting doesn't look the same. So everyone could have fun in it and express their personal style.
I will give main character models if needed any other models as well. There no need animations but that could be a good bonus to the videos.
Also, there will be minimal effect of a comic so everything will look like in one style

Need Horror/Suspense/Drama/Adventure comic Dub video editor
Knowledge: How to do comic Dub videos and CREATE an atmosphere with your editing.
You have to have: After effect (I have all the tutorials you would need for it), Any editing program for me adobe is the best. Also, would be nice if you have Sony Vegas mostly for color correction BUT we will see.
We have access to do minimal 3D models animations with anything - full-body, facial expressions, camera movement all around the map
The storyboard will be made by the director (me), I will give you all the necessary advice on how to make it look better, what color correction make, video tutorials and anything you would need for this project - all questions and everything you can depend on me!
Your job will be:
1. CREATE atmosphere (it's the most important point for me)
2. Do minimal visual effects, have the creativity and think about where we can add animations (but mostly it will be still images)
3. Match video with sounds, add or ask for additional sounds if you feel there was missing anything.
All the sounds will be mixed already but you need to put everything together

IMPORTANT WHEN AUDIT:
You have to do a music composition for this project for audition. I need to hear how your future composition will sound in my project and if you can feel the atmosphere that I'm trying to create here. (no specific time or amount of tracks; but you need to do costume track for this project when audit)
Here is how it should sound (the MIX of):
Music from the game last of us (mostly the main track); Stranger things; Little nightmare game music; Wild west alike; atmosphere from suspense movies and Egyptian
Here is something that maybe can inspire you:

Looking for any of the following:
*3D model animation in any software (Will give SFM(Gmod)/Blender file models)
*Object animation: such as creating atmosphere, flying objects, smoke, moving background with still characters and etc.
It will be half motion comic, half using animation of 3D space
Your job will be, for example:
There will be seen with fire, they will site in front of a fire in a forest, a few different shots of it (still images) - you will need to animate the fire and add visual effects on the face with the lighting of a fire, and maybe some flying things, create some atmosphere.
Basically just add animation effects(DETAILS, small "background" effects) in already created and photoshopped pictures
You don't need to do the main editing job. But may do some painting and editing advice
Here is something I'd like to do:
Say something you think would fit
Someone who can port models from games into Blender, or just adjust the clothes parts from one model to another
