Calling All voice actors!! Do you enjoy reading webtoon comics, voice acting, aliens, and romance? Then this comic dub project will be a perfect opportunity to amerce yourself into a romantic novel about an alien girl running away from home to learn to be an earthling to start fresh!
"Down To Earth", created by Pookie Senpai on Webtoons. "Kade, a 24 year old who lives his average life alone and undisturbed... until a cute alien girl crashes into his backyard!By opening up his home, will this other worldly girl inadvertently open up his heart?"
Her story, plot, characters are hers, I just want to be the person to host and find people to dub the comic with. Been a fan of her work for a while now. I will gladly add all her links and social media platforms here too. (Comic link: https://www.webtoons.com/en/romance/down-to-earth/list?title_no=1817)
Also note I'm only focusing on Season 1 right now that ends around Episode 78.
Also I I did make a Tiktok announcements on it so I will leave that here
Announcement 1: https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZT2nLRpBT/
Announcement 2: https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZT2n833t5/
REQUIRMENTS FOR THIS PROJECT:The series is rated "Young Adult". If you are going to audition, the required age is 18 and up, HOWEVER, in some scenes, there are flashbacks to when the characters are children in school, I will make a separate casting call project later down the line if this ends up being a success. (will make also a separate casting call for any additional voices/BGCs that come about, especially in season 2)
Mic or whatever recording device you have, preferably a microphone (ex: blue yeti) must be clean and crispy sounding. NO background noises, no heavy breathing, and make sure your audio doesn't peak.
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE READ THE COMIC ON WEBTOONS!! Those who know/read or heard of the comic, you will definitely get a feel for these characters. I personally think it's a short read that you can get done within 2-3 days. Or read their character wikis to know more about them. That is posted in their info when you audition for any of the roles listed.
Please have a discord account and or an email account. Add your account username or email address when you upload your audition! If you get the part I would love to DM you through discord (or email if preferred) and notify if you got picked. Then I can add you to my server. That's where we will communicate for further directions! If you don't use discord, make an account!!
Deadline for submitting your auditions are until 10/22/2024 (October, 22cd on a Wednesday)
This comic dub isn't a paid thing towards VAs! Only for fun and again, I got permission to do this dub and find people on CCC to dub it!
You can do a few different takes in one recording, but no more than 2-3 per line.
You can audition for more than one character or BGC.
My name is Vocals and i'm an editor, voice actor (SFW and NSFW kind), and artist. I'm in my early 20's atm, female, and have always been inspired to voice act and or work on projects like these. I work normally for fun, but I'd love to make this my career down the line if I can. I hope we can work together and create something big!
My linktree is somewhere and yeah. Same handles for most of my socials if you wanted to reach out to me personally!
I'm very happy you took the time to read over this and I hope this goes well!! Please don't hesitate to reach out to me over on Instagram for any further questions! And if you can, share this around with some friends! Hope we can work together and work hard!! <3
Hiiii vocals here! Thank you to those who participated in the Down To Earth project I have held for 2 months! Audition page is now officially CLOSED OFF! I will not be accepting anymore auditions!

Hiiii everyone! Yet another update! I have made an announcement on Tiktok that I was continuing this audition page!

Zaida is a female alien who crash landed on earth to escape her home planet, Zodia. She came across earth to make it her new home, however due to her languages telepathy, levitation, and appearance differences, she has some trouble blending in. Main protagonist.
Sheās very optimistic, naive, happy-go-lucky spirit, self conscious, kind, happy, caring , and tries her hardest to make her friends happy. In her 20ās. https://down-to-earth.fandom.com/wiki/Zaida
(Curiously looking about) āIs this what the inside of an average earthlingās home looks like? It is quite delicious!ā
(Reminiscing negative thoughts) ā our planets are so different. I do not wish to ever return to Zodia. The ships computer had data on earth. Turns out that Zodians and Earthlings look quite similar. I thought I could make a new living here. But now that Iām hereā¦.ā
(Understanding in a sweet tone) āItās okay. Rule two was trust. So I will put trust on youā¦ as long as you help me. I promise.ā
Kade, male, 24 years old, is the definition of an introvert. He hates most social interactions and always tries to avoid anything that relates to him putting more effort into socializing than he needs to. Kade is more often bluntly honest when it comes to him other people's feelings, an example is how he talked to his mother. He doesn't seem to want friends and always carries a joyless aura. https://down-to-earth.fandom.com/wiki/Kade
(Out of it, tired, emotionless.) āthanks for shoppinā at Spenderās. Have a nice day or whateverā¦ā
(Emotionless but some emotion, like bottled up emotion.) āI get it. Youāre like the third girl Iāve dated this month. So thereās no need to explain.ā
(Explaining) āSecond Rule: obey. Wellā¦ āobeyā sounds super badā¦ maybe weāll call it rule twoā¦ trust. Basically if I tell you to do something then trust me.ā
Stace, Male, In his 20ās is an outgoing person however he has no friends. He prioritized work and success for the majority of his life and now struggles to find personal relationships. Though extroverted, he can come off as intrusive at times. While he is mostly confident when speaking to other, he can get flustered on certain occasions. For his entire life, he put hard work over relationships. He spent all of his time trying to succeed his whole life and it eventually paid off as he become a manager at Spenderās.
(Laid back yet still stern authoritative voice) ā you know as your manager, I have to say Iām not very pleased. Listen I know how much you love this jobā¦ but if you keep bringing in that joyless aura with you to work, Iām gonna have to fire you.ā
(Shocked, in Disbelief)āy-you you!! You actually took my advice? You smiled at a costumer!!! You even promoted coupons!!ā
(On the phone with someone) āheyā¦ is this about that new model? ā¦ sheās already with us so it would bring more attention to usā¦ yes, can I meet with her today? ā¦. Excellent! Iām on my way.ā
Delilah, female, in her 20ās, is a childhood friend of bath Kade and Ellie's, and a year prior to the start of Down To Earth, she broke up with Kade, having almost a 7-year relationship with him. She went off to presume a model career and became famous online.
Delilah appears to be a kind-hearted and friendly individual, which makes her well-liked among most people. In actuality, she is a manipulative and controlling person over the people in her life. Seeing how she isolated Kade from her friends and even his mother, wanting to be the only person in his life. She is clever, however, and easily able to mask this facade. Even Kade didn't outright notice anything wrong with her attitude, only breaking things off with her due to an unknown reason on Kade's part. https://down-to-earth.fandom.com/wiki/Delilah
(Trying on an outfit and speaking out loud, soft toned, confident) āNo pinkā¦ it whatever. Today weāre a cute intergalactic babe.ā
(Cutesy turning condescending) āI mean the guy is supposed to pay right?ā āWill you hold my coat and purse darling?ā āRemember what I said about talking too much? Itās annoying.ā
(Sweet talk) āi overheard you guys are going out for lunch together. May I please join you?ā
Ethan, male teen, 18 years old, is a side character of Down to Earth. He is a high school student and one of Zaidaās first friends on Earth. He unknowingly found the secret of Zadia being alien after seeing her float on the security cameras at Mallmart. But instead of telling others about her or blackmailing her, he wanted to become her friend and know more about her species and powers. Outside of Kade, Ethan is the first person to know that Zaida isn't human.
He is an optimistic, alien-loving, smug guy. He is a chill guy that is quick to give his trust and quickly becomes friends with people he likes. He can be very bad at talking to others and can say inconsiderate or he talks about what he thinks without notice. He can also be very persistent of things he finds curious about, like how he met Kade and Zaida and found their secret. He is also very supportive when it comes to his friends, whether that be giving an ear to listen to Zaida or giving Kade advice. He also likes to light-heartily tease Kade, poking fun at his feelings about Zaida because he wants to see them to get together
https://down-to-earth.fandom.com/wiki/Ethan
(Sounds kinda crazy and very infatuated) āExcuse me. Sorry to sound a lilā crazy butā is sheā¦ an alien?ā
(Slightly panicked) āOh, Hell. Iām sorry. Look, I didnāt know her ears were real. I thought she was cosplaying I didnāt know. I didnāt mean to offend her.ā
(Talking about his fixation with aliens) āit all started when me and my brother were really young. We spent a lot of our time camping out at night. Watching the stars. We talk about a possibilities. Might be out there. What aliens look or sound like period if thereās any other earth out there. We did UFO hunt until our eyes stung. Butā¦ as he got older he stopped wandering. He had more important things to think about. I never stopped though. Itās what made us bond. So Iāll always cherish those thoughts and ideas.ā
Suzy, female, in her early 20ās or so, is a side character of Down to Earth. She first met Kade whilst he briefly worked at MallMart and eventually became his coworker at Spenderās. She unknowingly found the secret of Zaida after seeing her eyes glow out of joy after piercing her ear. While scared and confused at first, she eventually calmed down and opened up to the idea of aliens, and become Zaidaās only female friend. Suzy was able to help Zaida to become a Model at Spenders. And also house Zaida when they were giving Kade some space.
At a first glance, she can come off as a cold person who loves to embarrass others for a reaction, however, the reason for this is because she is very bad at starting conversations with others, once you get to know her, she is a well-meaning, supportive, loud and obnoxious friend. She is undoubtedly an extrovert being a friendly social talkative person always there to support and has a great time with people in her life, although, she is always forward of what she thinks, to the point where she can be insensitive.
https://down-to-earth.fandom.com/wiki/Suzy
(Jokingly, that sort of comes off as rude) āI donāt know about āspotlessā. Thereās a tiny mess over there. Maybe you should tidy it up! Donāt worry, Iāll watch the counter.ā
(Casual tone) āwe got more inventory. This is one of several boxes. Can you help unload them?ā
(Apologetic leads to tying to strike conversation.) ādude I was messinā!! For a guy, youāre so sensitive. Hey, andā¦ I waa messing around all those other times too. Iād didnāt mean to offend you. I was trying to start a conversationā¦ As you can seeā¦ I donāt know how.ā
Ellie, female, early 20ās, is side character of Down to Earth. She is Kadeās childhood and best friend for over a decade. She is also one of his ex-girlfriends and is the only ex that has made amends with him. While she initially thought of Zaida and Kadeās relationship as short-lived, and that she would soon be dumped, she came to see that Zaida was the person she wanted to be and brought new light to Kade's life. She supports the new odd relationship between him and Zaida and becomes her first female friend on Earth. She is currently taking a new job at a fashion company.
Ellie is kind and very open person. She is easily upset by Kade, but still cares a lot for him, even after they broke up. Her personality shines most when she visited Kade's house to tell him she was moving
(Annoyed, Heartbroken, Angry) "My advice... stop seeking help from women and find it yourself. You're breaking hearts when yours isn't even there. It's SELFISH!"
(Over it) "Look, You don't have to force a nice attitude on me. I'm not here to cause trouble with his new interest for the week. I just need a moment with him. That's all."
(lightheartedly joking around) "Maybe that's why Kade and I didn't last very long. He did always prefer his woman with crazy colored hair. I bet if I dyed my hair pink, we would have lasted longer. How shallow~"
Dustin, male, unkownn age but seems to be in his 20's, and old friend of Suzy and Kade. Heās a very popular "Q"-Tuber and has a range of supporting fans/fanbase. Outgoing personality. Minor character who shows up from time to time.
(Looking at a long line at an amusement park) "That's a long line... Think there's a way we can shorten it?"
(Casual, laid back) "No occasion. I just need more summer clothes. What's the occasion for you guys?"
(Soft and curious) "There not much I can say, honestly. I didn't experience the relationship myself... Can I ask? If you're willing to open up-- What made you decide to leave her?"
Lynn, female, MILF, age unknown, is Kade's mom. Lynn is an odd woman who comes to Kade whenever she feels defeated, usually after every horrible date, while trying to cover it up by saying she is just trying to spend time with her son. Kade is very indifferent to her behavior and bluntly honest that she has no reason to be upset over her many failed attempts at dating anymore. Despite that, Kade lies to her about his own love life. Minor character. (she come sin around episode 87)
(Motherly, welcoming) "Hi Kadey!!! It's been awhile!!!"
(Calm and relaxed) "I've got to say... I was expecting you to be here alone, Kadey. But, it's been so long! I've really missed my darling son!"
(Complimenting) "You know... out of all the women my son has been with-- you're definitely the prettiest. It's so refreshing seeing a new face in Kade's life! Fill free to call me mom. I don't mind."
