JoJo's Bizarre Abridgement: Phantom Blood

Project Overview

Introduction
Hi! I'm Full of Enigma the director/writer/editor for JoJo's Bizarre Abridgement. If you can't already tell, this is an abridged series dedicated to Part 1: Phantom Blood.  However, my initial goal was to cover every part in the JoJo's Bizarre Adventure anime series, but if this abridged series succeeds in entertaining all welcomed viewers, maybe I'll consider!  My other goal for this series is to successfully mix in both story and comedy elements without losing its balance, and hopefully you guys can help me reach my goals!


Requirements

1.  Must have Discord for general communication and for turning in lines!

2.  Must not be sensitive towards jokes and insults made in the series!

3.  Must have dedication and patience!

4.  (Not a requirement, but it would help) Must have a quality microphone.

5.  Must be familiarized with the JoJo's Bizarre Adventure series.



FAQ

Q: Will you cover Parts 1-4?

A: I want to cover Parts 1-4 but that depends if the audience enjoys it. If the audience enjoys it, then I know that I'm not exactly wasting my time creating this project!



Q: What do I have to exactly private message you if I want to be part of the editing and/or scripting team?
A: Give me everything you've got. Tell me whether or not you've had experience working with any other projects or especially abridged series. Don't be afraid to tell me anything.



Q: Am I allowed to do multiple auditions for the same character?

A: If you're altering your voice or giving your character an accent then I highly encourage it! If you're just spamming the same audition audio then I will not tolerate it.



Q: What's the work flow like? What should I be expecting when participating in the project?

A: The voice-actors, of course, will have the easiest job in the series. We direct them to record them saying something until we're satisfied! It's then a 1-3 month process of editing and working on future episode scripts.



Q: Is there a Discord server?

A: Yes, but it's a work in progress so we'll have it open to the public later. There we will be posting updates, sneak peeks, and more!




Q: Why do you include a link to a character's personality?


A: It's not their personality in the abridged series but it's used as reference for some people who need a better grasp on the character they're auditioning 




Notes

Wanna be directly involved in the series's editing/scripting?  Though this was supposed to be a solo project, any volunteers who're willing to help with the series's editing and/or scripting process are welcome!  If you're interested, private message me for inquiries! Those who get accepted will officially be part of Team Enigma!



Please note that some of the lines shown are not part of the final script.

Latest Updates

  • All of the roles have been finally taken!

    First I would start off by saying that I would send all of the recently casted voice-actors a message confirming that they've got their roles but Casting Club has a feature that prevents constant messages being sent to a recipient. So I would love if all of the voice-actors can take this update as a message towards them as well. Please send me a private message on Casting Call confirming whether or not you're still on-board and ready for the voicing part of the project. Provide me with your Discord information as well! For all of the other participants, don't be disappointed if you did not play a role. Auditioning alone gives me a sign that there's a community out there who were willing to openly participate in this project. Even to those who didn't even audition, thank you for acknowledging this project's existence! Again, if you did get a role, please message me confirming whether or not you're still on-board and provide me with your Discord information to make things a lot easier to handle! Thank you, -Full of Enigma P.S: Episode 1's script has been completely redone and is finished!
  • **UPDATE**: I am picking up JJBAbridgement again.

    Hi y'all! First I wanna start off by saying I am extremely sorry for leaving the project on the ground unannounced and for worrying the people who were involved with the project. The reason for this was mainly because of stuff outside of the project. I wanted to spend some time away from the project and hang out with friends and that one time led me to temporarily drop it unannounced. New games were also being released (mainly FighterZ hype) and that got my eyes off of the project for a while. Another factor that got to me was that my motivation went down while I was working on it. Though I was grateful for the many volunteers who were willing to contribute to the project with their lovely talent and voices, the script was my main concern. After tampering with it numerous times, it just didn't work for me. After many trail & errors, I distracted myself from the project and decided to exactly what I said previously; hang out with my friends and playing games. I apologize truly for letting you all down, there's really absolutely no excuse for me to just disappear without saying anything. It was a huge bitch mood and I have to sincerely apologize to all of the wonderful talents who were on board and haven't heard anything from me since. So what does this mean for JJBAbridgement? Am I gonna drop the project in its entirety? Nope! I'm picking the project back up. I'm gonna try my best to get *at least* an episode out for you all. I say this because I want to make sure I am completely ready to devote my time on the project. Another thing to add is that I'm looking for some volunteers to help me write the script. I need someone that could share some thoughts with me and, together, improve the scripts for your pleasure. I'm looking forward to getting back into the project. I do apologize for staying quiet and completely ignoring this project's existence. But I hope that me standing up again will make this project a lot better!
  • We're extending the deadline to 1/1/18!

    We're extending the deadline to 1/1/18 due to us being so unprepared for how many auditions we were gonna receive, and more time to finish scripts would be appreciated. Sorry for the inconvenience, but I hope to see even more auditions for the upcoming weeks. We'll see you next year!

What I'm Looking For
I am not necessarily looking for an English accent, but if you can pull one off then I would really appreciate it, there's also a young and a MANLY adult version of Jonathan in the series, so if you can pull off a slightly higher voice for the younger version I would appreciate that as well- if you can't that's fine.  If you'd like, improvise and add lines of your own!

  • (Young Jonathan): You must be craving for one of our finest dishes after the long ride! (Danny barks) And speaking of one of our finest dishes… Danny! This is my wonderful companion Danny! He’s not quite ready for the grill but he knows better than not to bite!

  • (Bruford gives Jonathan the sword of 'Pluck' as he collapses)(Adult Jonathan): Sir Bruford... I... what...  WHAT DOES 'PLUCK' EVEN MEAN!?  SIR BRUFORD!!! (. . .) No... you may rest now Bruford... for you have earned it...

  • (Adult Jonathan): THIS IS THE FULL OF EXTENT OF MY HAMON YOU FOUL FIEND, I CALL THIS ONE, "SUNLIGHT LIFE MAGNETIZING METAL SILVER UNDERWATER TURQUOISE BLUE SCARLET YELLOW, OVERDRIVE!!!"

Role assigned to: declanmulligan

What I'm Looking For
To get one thing out of the way, Dio in the abridged series is a gay vampire who is slightly attracted towards Jonathan.  Now, same thing for Dio, I am not necessarily looking for an English accent, but if you can pull one off then I would really appreciate it.  Just like Jonathan, he also has a younger and older version but if you can't pull off a younger Dio, that's fine.  Now to the main part, Dio is the main antagonist, so of course, he has a serious and cocky attitude, so go ahead and show that off with your voice!

  • (Young Dio): So this is Jonathan Joestar... he has himself a pretty handsome face and a body that I would take for my own... now this is the type of man for me...

  • (Adult Dio): I'm saying that I REJECT MY HUMANITY, JOJO!!!

  • (These lines aren't required but I would like to see if you could pull this off just incase I want these in the scripts)(Adult Dio): MUDA MUDA MUDA MUDA! USELESS USELESS USELESS USELESS! HINJAKU HINJAKU!

What I'm Looking For

For William I'm looking for somebody who could do an Italian accent. Doesn't have to be a serious one or a stereotypical one, either one will do.

  • (William): Wow, out of all the people I fingered in the streets, it seems like you are the only person I didn't kill! Now I must teach you the ways of Hamon whether you like it or not!

  • (William): I have done you a favor Mr. Joestar. Now you can even lift that rock!

What I'm Looking For

For Speedwagon, I'm looking for someone who can do an English accent. Speedwagon has a very manly and cocky voice before getting defeated by Jonathan.  However, after getting defeated by Jonathan he sounds like a weaker English folk.  Speedwagon also talks in 3rd person most of the time- not that he's an idiot but because he's... Speedwagon...

  • (Speedwagon (Manly Voice)): It looks like Speedwagon will have to kill you for trespassing on our turf!

  • Jonathan defeats Speedwagon
    (Speedwagon (Weaker Voice)): Okay okay! Speedwagon sees that you are a gentleman who's walking through to get some medicine for his dear father! Because of that, Speedwagon will allow this gentleman to walk through our turf!

  • (Speedwagon): Even though I'm now internally bleeding and my liver is malfunctioning, Speedwagon now understands what it's like to be a true gentleman!

What I'm Looking For

I'm not looking for much since George Joestar is a minor character and I don't mind if you give him an accent or not, but it would be very appreciated.

  • (George Joestar): Now now, if Danny is permanently paralyzed then we can always get you a new one!

  • (George Joestar): Nonsense! I think you and Dio will get along pretty well! Well now that we got things in order, Dio you can do whatever you want, and Jonathan you can… keep on being Jonathan!

  • (George Joestar): Jonathan, learn your manners at this dinner table! And can you please pass the salt without getting into arguments with your adopted brother!?

I'm looking for a shy English accent for Erina, but not exactly quiet. That's all I can really describe for what I want since she's irrelevant early on in the series.

What I'm Looking For

In the abridged series, Straizo is a gay hamon user *cough* which explains why he's loyal to Dio in Part 2 *cough*. For accents I'm not looking for anything in particular, just a stereotypical gay voice and that's pretty much it.

  • (Straizo): Dio sure is a handsome man, it's a shame that his heart is sour for my tasting.

  • (Straizo): Tonpetty said "Stop acting gay or I swear to god I'll do you a favor and chop your dick off so you can never use it again."

  • (Straizo): Silly Tonpetty, I never had one in the first place!

To be fair, Dire is one of the most irrelevant characters in JoJo and doesn't even last a full episode.  For Dire... just do whatever the fuck man.  Not in a literal sense but at least try, thanks <3

  • (Dire): I apologize for me and my gay friend, we're simply here to waste time and become irrelevant in an episode or two.

For Bruford, I'm looking for a voice that yells out honor. I don't know how to properly explain it, but Bruford is a proud and honorable warrior in the series. For accent I'm not looking for anything specific, just a knight's voice or an honorable voice.

  • (Bruford): I shall show you what my love and deluxe that is my hair is capable of!(Tarkus): (Inaudible gibberish)(Bruford): That's racist, Tarkus!
