Happiness
Project Overview
What if everyone in the world got the exact same amount of happiness delivered to them? Happiness purely made for only them? Happy is a demigod created only to distribute everyone's happiness and bring it to them each day. He himself is never allowed to drink even one bit of it. But doubt begins to grow in his little, grey mind. Doubt about whether everyone deserves the same amount of happiness. And about why he should work to give everyone their fun without ever getting a piece of it- or a thank you for that matter- back?
This is an animation series that will be released on Youtube once it is done. I need all kinds of people to finish this task. WARNING: it deals with serious topics (though kept very lighthearted) that may disturb some, and uses adult language and suggestive themes. It is also a fully unpaid project.

Happy is a very monotone, tired, depressed demigod in the form of a teenage boy. Though he can get very angry as well. I imagine his voice raspy but young but if you have a different direction that you think might fit go ahead and present it!
(determined/angry) Get out of my way, Cupid. I am going to find what makes me happy.
(monotone) Oh. Sure.
(hesitantly) I'm never going back to Heaven.
This is the narrator of the story, an older version of the protagonist. I want him to sound a bit more lively than the usual story narrator, perhaps a little jolly.
The most exciting thing about any day, was to see which shade of grey the next one would be.
But did everyone deserve happiness? Did.... did I deserve it?
(A calm laugh)
Cupid is sort of the antagonist of the story. He is very feminine and sassy, quite sarcastic and overall energetic but a little sinister. His voice can be over the top if you want it to, go as far as you want. He can have any accent. Ignore what the box for accents says.
(sassily) Excuse me? Did I hear a little bitch speak?
(sassy, schadenfreudige laugh) Ohohoho no no no
(in high pitch, rolling the r) Brrrack!
This is just an old lady that appears every once in a while. Her voice can be over the top and cartoony if you want. We're not going for realism here. She can have any accent, it isn't important.
(discovering something) Hm!
(sweetly) Oh darling...
I am looking for someone who can compose both sinister and happy music with lots of action as well as calm background music. Basically, I want someone with a lot of diversity in their compositions.
Say something you think would fit
This role is more about understanding cinematography than it is about being a good artist. So even if you cannot draw all that well, so long as you can capture the idea of a shot clearly on paper you are wanted!

As a rough animator I expect you to be able to create a rough animation based on storyboards and directors directions.

As a cleanup animator for this project you must be able to complete a rough animation in the rough animators style by inbetweening.

Say something you think would fit
You must be able to create a rough animation based on storyboards and directions from the director. As a secondary force, you will be doing all the scenes the main rough animator does not have the time to do.

This is just an extra in the pilot.
(angrily yelling) Talk back to me one more time and see where that gets you!
