Breath of the Wild: Complete Story Dub is an upcoming voice acted project produced by ZeldaUniverse.net. The project is currently seeking voice actors & singers (1 role [M] requires singing). This is a fandub project, therefore it is voluntary and unpaid. However, being a part of a project by Zelda Universe grants you staff perks within ZU's community. Details will be discussed upon being cast.
This project will contain all major story sequences & cutscenes with full voice acting. Our dub is scheduled for release in March 2021. Characters who were previously voiced in the official dub (Zelda, Revali, Urbosa, etc.) are also up for audition.
Short synopsis: The story of "Breath of the Wild" focuses on Hyrule's Champion, Link, who wakes up from a 100 year sleep in a place called the Shrine of Resurrection. He is called to defeat a great evil, Calamity Ganon, that is bent on destroying Hyrule. Link must overcome a number of trials and defeat Calamity Ganon once and for all.
Zelda Universe has produced Legend of Zelda dubs since 2015. Projects include English dub adaptations of games such as Hyrule Warriors, Twilight Princess, Ocarina of Time & many more. You can find our latest project, Majora's Mask: 20th Anniversary Tribute, over on our YouTube channel.
~RULES AND GUIDELINES~
1. Don't be rude or offensive - Be nice to others who are auditioning. Any display of rude behavior will cause your auditions to not be considered.
2. Audition for as many roles as you like! - There is no limit to how many characters you can try out for! Just be sure to follow rule #3 below.
3. Audition once per character - If you want to resubmit your audition, delete the original and upload your latest audition. For each role, please submit only ONE audio file (.WAV or .MP3 format) containing all audition lines assigned to a given role. Do NOT upload multiple files of each line. You MUST record all lines provided for a character to be considered for the role.
4. Slating - Slating is stating your name & the character you are trying out for in your audition. We prefer NO slating, but your audition will still be considered.
5. Adding various takes to an audition [PLEASE FOLLOW] - We recommend up to 2-3 different takes per audition line. Use different voices when trying out, so we can get an idea of your range. Picture what you think the character would sound like.
6. Have a quality microphone - We need to be able to hear you loud and clear with little audio issues as possible. If your auditions are too quiet or too loud (audio peaking), then we may ask you to resubmit your audition before the deadline.
7. All levels of talent are welcome - You do NOT have to be a professional voice actor to participate. Whether you are an experienced voice actor, or just starting out, we want to hear you try out!
8. Have fun! - If you're having fun auditioning, then you're doing it right! Just don't be a jerk about it! (refer to rule #1) That said, break a leg!
