Fieldbook of Common Birds (Short Animated Film)

Project Overview

After their father’s death, two brothers return to his old cottage to pack up his belongings. Both miss him dearly, but are unable to express their feelings to each other. The rediscovery of their father’s treasured possession - an old fieldbook of common birds - opens a way to bridge the distance between them.

Fieldbook of Common Birds is a short animated student film diving into the lives of two grieving brothers. Emotional, melancholic and dreamy! 🌿

I am currently on the hunt for talented voices to voice the two main characters of my film!

The sound, including music and voice actors, in the attatched animatic is a work in progress. We are currently in the process of working with a musician to create original soundtrack for the film. The voice actors used are my friends who happily helped me out!

Youthful, Emotional, Warm


Keito is the younger brother. He's ruled by his emotions and is having a hard time dealing with the loss of his father. Should have a higher voice than his brother.


I am looking for a youthful adult male voice. The acting shouldn't be too cartoony as the tone of the film is very calm and melancholic.The character says around 30 words in the film, however there will be some laughter and breathing needed for the atmosphere to work out. Same with sighs and gasps as reactions.

  • Yes- I'm sorry! (caught up in tears)

Calm. Deep. Genuine.


Roda is the older brother. He's very collected, looking to pack up things from his late father's cabin and leave. He's internalizing his emotions which may even make him a little cold.


I am looking for a neutral tone, deeper round voice. Very calm. He's less emotional than his younger brother Keito. He shouldn't sound annoyed or bored. He should sound a bit dismissive of his brother's emotions.

  • Well, this place hasn't changed a bit. We can start small, before we move out the couch and stuff. (reminiscent, calm)

  • Um... You good? / You okay? (puzzled, calm)

  • What! I'm not allowed to sneeze now? (laughing, jokingly)
