Hot Mess Hotel: The Pilot
Project Overview
Hi guys! This casting call is for the pilot episode, and then the eventual first season, of "Hot Mess Hotel," a small indie series I'm working on. It's my first time taking on such a big project, and I can't wait to work with yall!!
Here's the synopsis: "Nigo Cardona, who's almost 18, is at risk of failing out of school again, and his parents tell him it's time to get moving. But fate, almost by chance, brings him to a hotel, once a castle in an evil kingdom, along with his three idiot friends. What could possibly go wrong?" (To learn more, click here:https://characterhub.com/profile/bunbuncomix) (You can find tons of material on my page, like character pages, posts, animation samples, etc.).
I'm looking for voice actors (a good mic and a little acting skill to get the lines right is required) for the pilot episode and then for the first season, as well as a composer, since I need the theme song. If you'd like to audition, I'd appreciate it if you could submit at least one voiceover or music sample to see if you're a good fit for the role. There are five main voiceover roles, plus additional roles for extras or characters with a limited number of lines.
All roles are in English, with possible accent variations.
There will be compensation if the Hot Mess Hotel pilot goes viral, then I'll figure out how to split the video's earnings with those who worked on it. If the project goes forward, I'll consider paying anyone who continues to work on the project in the same way. The voice actors / anyone who works on the project will be also credited in the closing credits of each episode, with thanks, and on their character page on CharacterHub as well!!
