Let's Play and Perform River City Girls Zero
Project Overview
Seeking 21 and over actors for a Let's Play and Perform of River City Girls Zero.
What is a "Let's Perform" ?
They are akin to cold reads and table reads. They are done for fun and for practice(acting and being a professional, real names are required for credits), basically to provide an English dub when the game has either no voice acting or voice acting in another language. The performances are live-streamed to Twitch and uploaded to YouTube for archival purposes. The game's screen is streamed to Discord for participants to read their character lines, while the game is played.
Although this is technically voice acting, my approach is more akin to screen and stage acting due to the live aspect and the mandatory requirement of having cameras on for Discord. This is so you can look at your scene partners and deliver your lines to them. You will be recorded on camera as a sort of behind the scene video and for memorable moments. If you're a voice actor, I still encourage you to apply if you're interested. However, those who are only here to line hunt are not recommended.
Video explanation: https://youtu.be/zU9oYtKBJco
Through Parsec (a free application where one connects to another computer), participants will be able to control their characters. So those auditioning for a playable character will need to be able to do their own "stunts." A controller is highly recommended for this game.
When Are the Streaming Sessions?Sessions will typically be on Saturdays at 11:30 PM EST. Each session lasts roughly two hours. First session planned for July 18th.
Please understand that when you're commit to this project, you will commit to showing up. If you will be absent, please let me know in advance. Unexplained absences or last minute cancellations due to events within your control are not acceptable. If you have a variable work schedule on Saturday night or health conditions, this will not be a good project for you. You will be required to fill out an availability time sheet every week so I can determine if a session is possible that weekend.
Audition NotesPlease do not do that AABBCC format. Again this is closer to onscreen or stage acting. If you want to do a separate take, do it again at the end.
Please be aware that you will be pre-screened with questions before scheduling a callback to make sure you have read the project description or watched the video explanation for "What is a Let's Perform."When you are logged in, you can comment, add submissions, create projects, upvote, search open roles, and way more.
