A music album that is a web series: THIS IS THE INTERNET
Project Overview
About
It is a music album.
But it is also a mini web-series.
"THIS IS THE INTERNET" is based around themes of communication in the digital age, this album strives to blur different creative formats together, referencing many different themes such as opinions, online threads or arguments through a retro 00s-inspired aesthetic. Songs are an eclectic mix of vocaloid and other internet microgenres.
Ever thought while listening to a song, “damn, this would fit in this particular movie scene”?
Well, THIS IS THE INTERNET strives to bring the stories each song tells, to your screen, through episodic releases.
Think: a visual album split into musical tracks and narrative episodes. A two-part release: listen to the album, then step into the episode that corresponds with each song. Episodes form a continuous movie by the end. It is for the multi-media lovers.
Where do I come in?
PART 1 will be airing soon (album-only date already released). Therefore, we currently need:
Voice actors for a couple of minor characters (for now). Chance for a recurring role if it comes that way.
Music producers aligned with the hyperpop/vocaloid/EDM, etc space.
Further details provided within each role description. Make sure to read payment terms.

Voice Actor
I require a small amount of lines (ranging from anywhere between even just 1 line to 4-5 lines) for a diverse set of characters (as part of a crowd scene). You can apply for multiple roles if your range permits.
Characters include:
- A typical high-school nerd (male)
- American bully (male)
- Timid person (male or female)
- Angry person (male or female)
- english
- male adult
- female adult
- female young adult
- all american accents
- male young adult
NERD: Well akshually… I think A is better than B!
TIMID PERSON: C-c’mon g-guys!! We can be civil about this!
Producer
ABOUT
I need a music producer/artist who can remix one of the tracks off of my album/mini web series and share it on their music channels with their followers.
Genres I am looking for are something like: electronic (EDM and subsets of that), rock, hyperpop, vocaloid as well as any music with otaku/anime and broader internet (ie: y2k) themes/inspirations.
These tracks are a good indicator of the vibe I'm going for:

https://open.spotify.com/playlist/2B5G0yZnugMZD1v6KH5NvZ?si=xlCcSPRdRUK-6RBlo3dzDw
This is a non-exhaustive list - please contact me to discuss any further if you feel your music may still fit but you are unsure. I am open to other unmentioned genres if I see an opportunity.
My rate for payment is dependent on:
1. How much I feel our audiences align (examples provided earlier)
2. How active your community is (need a fanbase) - maybe you have an active discord community or you have even just a bit of influence in your niche.
3. The quality of your remix. I am looking for producers who can bring experience to the table.
What will then happen:
I will share the remix on my channel with my close Discord community, Spotify and YouTube.
I would also like you to then release the remix to your audience as you would with any collaboration. Further details for delivery can be discussed.
It doesn't just stop there - this can be the beginning of a fruitful collaboration! Again, if anything is unclear, discuss with me and I can assess.

Voice Actor

*sighs* Inspection. Again.
I don’t know where you’re from, nor am I interested in the specifics.
Writer
I've written a script and I need an experienced writer to check over some of the dialogue with me to ensure it's up to quality.
Script is around 23 pages long.
