Hello, everybody! I'm houhouVA, and this is a project for the A Day in the Life! series for the popular Nintendo mobile game Fire Emblem Heroes.
For those who don't know A Day in the Life, it's a weekly comic that puts different heroes together from the Fire Emblem series. Here's a link to the comic pages: https://fire-emblem-heroes.com/en/manga/
It's a very lighthearted and funny series of comics, and I've always thought it would be a blast dubbing it over. However, the sheer number of characters and the short length of each comic made it difficult to organize. That's why, I've decided to simply use a few voice actors to do the dubbing for many characters at a time! I might step in as well to voice a couple characters.
I am sorry to say that this is a passion project, and I do not have enough funds to give out to those interested. Nevertheless, I'm excited to get this project underway!
Given the lighthearted nature of the comics, I would love for the dub to be equally as lighthearted, so feel free to audition for any characters you would like. Although the recording quality and acting must be top-notch, the actual dubbing is pretty flexible, and I'm open to slight improvisation or derivations from what the comic exactly says.
The Important Stuff:
I am looking for this to be a long-term project. I will likely upload videos consisting of 3~5 comics each on a monthly basis, so the lines required will be for those comics.
I am not looking for a voice-match for any characters. I still believe it's a good idea to listen to the sample recordings though to get a better idea of the mannerisms for each character.
Please have a recording environment without background noise and acceptable microphone quality (Some USB and XLR preferred).
We will be using Discord to chat and upload recordings, so please have an account ready.
As always, timely recordings are needed. The lines will never be very long, so please submit the recordings on time!
I encourage you to audition for as many characters as you can! I'm looking for the comic dubs to be a little wacky, so anything goes!
If you've gotten this far, thank you very much for taking a look at this project! If you haven't already, go play a Fire Emblem game. Good luck!
Hello and happy Saturday! Thank you to everyone for submitting auditions! All of you have amazing voices, so it's going to be a tough pick.
I encourage everyone to audition for more than one role if you're interested in any other role! There are many different characters that are portrayed in the comics, so there's a very large range of voices I am looking for!
I'm excited to make some comics soon!
I tried to group together male characters who I thought would have younger or higher-pitched voices. I encourage you to try whatever you feel could possibly fit your voice! Depending on how auditions turn out, I may select separate voice actors for Kaden, Morgan, and Silas, and I may ask you to be other characters not on this specific audition tab.
Here's a quick sample recording of them from the official game, to get a general idea of their voices:
Kaden: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ULBQ38Qlyvs
(Kaden, Sheepish) "Hey, Julian. Thanks for helping me out back there. I was in a tough spot. Now I have to return the favor! Just let me know if there's something you need, anything at all!"
(Morgan, Excited) "It's our favorite time of the year... Harvest Festival! There's just one rule: Give us a treat, or we'll play a mean trick on you! And we're pretty good at playing tricks! First, we'll set up a pitfall, a true classic! Next is a net trap! Last, but not least, a trap that unleashes fire magic when stepped on!"
(Silas, Slightly Awkward) "It's, uh... pretty terrifying when the fallen heroes gather together. It's like I can see a dark aura around them. I should be used to it by now, but I still get a chill when they draw near..."
I tried to group together male characters who I thought would have older or lower voices. I encourage you to try whatever you feel could possibly fit your voice! Depending on how auditions turn out, I may select separate voice actors for Yarne, Sylvain, and Leo, and I may ask you to be other characters not on this specific audition tab.
Here's a quick sample recording of them, to get a general idea of their voices:
Yarne: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VjTe4pwczfQ
Sylvain: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wKYRqqX3wa4 (at 6:17)
(Yarne, Terrified) "GYAH! BE GENTLE WITH ME! I DON'T WANT TO GO EXTINCT! (In shock) Wait!... Are those... TAGUEL EARS?! And they're not just accessories?!"
(Sylvain, Seductive) "Well... Hey there. You here alone? Why not join me in the sand?"
(Leo, Doting) "Oh, Elise, I do feed them sandwiches, but it's not quite as much of a meal as you would expect. Hahaha... Oh, Elise... Ingredients matter."
I tried to group together female characters who I thought would have younger or higher-pitched voices. I encourage you to try whatever you feel could possibly fit your voice! Depending on how auditions turn out, I may select separate voice actors for Kaden, Morgan, and Silas, and I may ask you to be other characters not on this specific audition tab.
Here's a quick sample recording of them, to get a general idea of their voices:
Anna: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iHq5Dx8FL8Q
Azura: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wc8YOPsqXNA
Lilith: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vjNeo9GMWY8 (at 5:48)
(Anna, Sarcastically) "Congratulations on subscribing to FEH pass! In addition to four exclusive perks that enhance the gameplay experience, FEH pass subscribers can also receive two resplendent heroes per calendar month!"
(Azura, Worried) "Oh no! ...This can't be... My bed head is simply awful today! ...I can't go to battle like this... (To her other versions of herself) One of you will have to take my place!"
(Lilith, Pumped) "C'mon, Lilith! It's my first day here... I have to greet everyone and make lots of friends! ...Um, hi! Nice to meet you! ...Oh! Y-you already know my name?"
I tried to group together female characters who I thought would have middle-pitched voices. I encourage you to try whatever you feel could possibly fit your voice! Depending on how auditions turn out, I may select separate voice actors for Kaden, Morgan, and Silas, and I may ask you to be other characters not on this specific audition tab.
Here's a quick sample recording of them from the official game, to get a general idea of their voices:
Dorothea: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qgLfspsCbpo
Byleth: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cYyjFwKi3i8 (at 6:40)
(Dorothea, Reassuring) "It's a swimsuit, Edie. It's supposed to be bold, haha! Oh, the weather is absolutely perfect for a swimsuit! You should be wearing one too!"
(Byleth, Thoughtfully) "I, too, would like to counter from a distance... If I cannot lose my other skills, then I'll pair up with someone who can counter for me... Such as Lysithea."
(Edelgard, Bashful) "Wow... That's a rather... bold look for you, Professor. M-me? Wearing a swimsuit?! ...Maybe I..."
