IKIGAI❀ - an English Love Live/Perfect Dream Project cover group!

Project Overview

Welcome to IKIGAI❀ - An English Perfect Dream Project cover group! As of now, we are only looking for Video Editors and Mixers. Check the updates for this project for the current cast member lists.

***

Vocalists:

Our goal will be to sing as the girls from Perfect Dream Project in English. Since the girls don't have a song yet, it's pretty much up to you how you how you sing for your audition! In the description for each vocalist role, I've put links to the respective speaking introduction as well as an example of how I imagine the character sounds (DON'T WORRY! You don't have to sound anything like these examples, it's just something I thought might help some people out). 

Character assignments (whose lines you'll be singing) and sub-unit assignments will be given out after everyone is cast! I will be deciding whose lines you'll sing, and we'll be creating sub-units of our own that will sing songs from one Muse sub-unit and one Aqours sub-unit. 

To begin, we'll all do short (game) versions of Muse solo songs! This will be to introduce everyone to our cast. From there, we will release songs in a fashion the group can vote on: sub-units, duets, year trios, trios, group songs. 


The vocalist roles are:

Third years:

❀Karin Asaka

❀Kanata Konoe

❀Emma Verde

Second years:

❀Ayumu Uehara

❀Ai Miyashita

❀Setsuna Yuki

First years:

❀Rina Tennouji

❀Kasumi Nakasu

❀Shizuku Osaka


Please sing any song in English in a voice that you think fits the character you are auditioning for! If you can help with any of the staff roles mentioned, please comment on your audition with your samples. If you can help with picking out harmonies, please mention that in your audition as well! And make sure to introduce yourself!

***

Other roles:

I need a lot of help to make this project a reality! 

Mixer

The only real requirement for mixer is to be able to mix 9 voices together! Tuning/mastering would be amazing, so if you can do this, please audition! 

To audition, give AT LEAST 3 examples of your mixing. One of them must be 7+ voices, the others must be at least 3 voices. These voices must not all be one person! 

I am looking for: 2 Mixers. This way, if we are releasing duets or trios, the work can be divided. This is also to ensure that we will not suddenly have a period where we can't release anything due to a staff shortage. You guys are super important!

Video Editor

Videos (unless the songs are solos) should have some form of color-coding, whether it be the sprites or the lyrics in the videos. Lyrics will always be included in the videos, as they will be our own lyrics! As a video editor, you will have a lot of freedom with what you create as long as it is presentable and fits the songs! Animation/effects other than that are just a plus. 

To audition, please give AT LEAST 3 examples of your video editing! At least one of them must include color coding of some kind. 

We are looking for: 3 Video Editors. This way, if we are releasing duets or trios, the work can be divided. This is also to ensure that we will not suddenly have a period where we can't release anything due to a staff shortage. You guys are super important!

Sprite Editor

The sprite editors will edit Aqours/μ's sprites to look like the girls from Perfect Dream Project! For your audition, please give AT LEAST 3 examples of your edits. 

Edits should be clean & transparent to put into videos! Unfortunately, there aren't many cards for the PDP girls yet, so a little improvisation might be necessary.

We are looking for: 2 Sprite Editors. I already have a friend willing to help out with this, but since there are so many girls and the process of editing can take awhile, I'd like everyone to be able to have a little bit of work to do but not be overwhelmed. This is also to ensure that if someone becomes busy or cannot continue to help out, we won't have a shortage of staff and we can continue creating. 

Lyricist

The job of the lyricist is simple! You will write translated lyrics, from Japanese to English. I will be sort of picky with this role, to be honest- I want the words to flow naturally, capture the message of the original, and match the rhythm of the original lyrics. If you can help with lyrics and are also auditioning as a vocalist, please mention that in your audition. Please comment on your audition with your examples.

We are looking for: 2 Lyricists. I myself will be helping out with this, but I'll need help! 


That's all, and good luck to everyone that auditions! I am excited to see where this project goes~

Latest Updates

  • STAFF AUDITIONS ARE STILL OPEN.

    Hello everyone!! This is just another little update regarding staff roles. The open staff roles (and only open roles in general) are VIDEO EDITOR and MIXER. If you did not make it as a vocalist but still want to help with staff, I strongly urge you to audition! I will not be sifting through vocalist auditions to see if you offered to help with staff. Thankfully, many of the vocalists are willing to help with staff roles. However, I think it is unfair to expect so much from them, as we will be working hard to sing to the best of our ability. It will be a collaborative process, but overall I'd like at least one main staff person per role (i.e. one who does not have a prior commitment to the group as a vocalist) to ensure productivity. Below is the list of vocalists who will be helping with staff roles as well as the few people I have selected based off of auditions for staff roles. Staff-only people will be indicated by asterisks surrounding their username. Vocalists who are willing to help with staff will have a (v) following their username. If you have auditioned for a staff role and have not been selected, it was after very careful consideration that I have decided to not cast you, and I hope you understand! I wish everyone the best of luck going onward. ☆☆☆☆☆ Mixer (still needed- 1 MIXER): rosaice (v), lexc (v) Video Editor (still needed- 3 VIDEO EDITORS): nyaruto (v, backup), fawnlii (v, minor animation) Sprite Editor [CLOSED]: *nalenthi*, lexc (v), fawnlii (v) Lyricist [CLOSED]: *ILLEGAILE*, nyaruto (v), fawnlii (v), lexc (v), plum (v) Harmonies [CLOSED]: nyaruto (v), rosaice (v), lexc (v)
  • VOCALIST AUDITIONS ARE NOW CLOSED.

    Hello everyone! First of all, thank you so much for your interest in this project, I hope that it will be a big success! Vocalist auditions are now closed. Below is the official vocalist cast list & in parenthesis are the links to everyone's Casting Call Club pages. You'll notice that some of the cast members haven't auditioned for these roles, and the roles are 'closed to an offsite actor'. This is majorly due to the fact that many of them said they would be okay with possible character suggestions from myself. If any cast changes are made after this update, a new update will be issued. If applicable and they did audition for this project, just as another member, the audition that I had in mind when casting them will be mentioned after the character name. ☆☆☆☆☆ ~First Years~ Rina Tennoji (Original audition: Kanata Konoe): bforpotato (https://www.castingcall.club/m/bforpotato) Shizuku Osaka: riceroni (https://www.castingcall.club/m/Riceroni) Kasumi Nakasu: cureplum (https://www.castingcall.club/m/CurePlum) ~Second Years~ Ayumu Uehara: nyaruto (https://www.castingcall.club/m/nyaruto) Ai Miyashita: rachele1220 (https://www.castingcall.club/m/Rachele1220) Setsuna Yuki: rosaice (https://www.castingcall.club/m/RosaIce) ~Third Years~ Karin Asaka: lexc (https://www.castingcall.club/m/LexC) Kanata Konoe (Original audition: Ai Miyashita): fawnlii (https://www.castingcall.club/m/Fawnlii) Emma Verde: hisimouto (https://www.castingcall.club/m/hisimouto)
