SHORTLISTING COMPLETE
Dear voice actors,
Shortlisting & dismissing is complete! Here are the stats:
Early shortlisting: 1 (1 William)
Shortlisting total: 33 (4 Mike, 4 Dave, 2 William, 6 Charlie, 17 other)
Dismissed: 1306
Unsorted: 86 (have all been reviewed)
Have you been dismissed and are curious as to why? Here is a list of reasons as to why people were dismissed:
Noticeably poor microphone quality or background noise that causes voice to sound out of place
AI generated submission (I didn’t even know that was possible before this)
(for william) Lack of key character traits such as british accent, subtle growl/bass in the back of throat
Just character compatibility (most fell short here)
Unnatural flow / acting (Lines or accent sounding forced or out of place, such as “daddy” for William shouldn’t sound like an inappropriate word)
Lewd submissions (For charlie?? Really guys??)
Starting your audition with “I am 13 years old” on an 18+ casting
Harassing or discouraging other voice actors in their comments (looking at one guy in particular)
Lack of acting as a whole (just reading the lines out loud), holding your breath while saying the lines (leading to an exhale at the end of every sentence), or writing “my audition is awful / I won’t get this role" in your submission
Completely butchering lines and not correcting them (not u, that one specific charlie actor, ur a cutie patootie)
Speaking so quietly that I cannot hear / speaking really slowly
Submitting auditions with voice effects
Being inactive on CCC for 2+ months
There were a lot of people that were very difficult for me to dismiss as well. Overall, I was very impressed! There were loads or submissions where the only issue was general character compatibility. All of you did a wonderful job, so if you’d like to try again in the future, keep an eye open for my next listing! I should have at least 70 more roles available for the main project.
