Our Ordinary Friendship
Project Overview
🌏In an alternate universe to ours, we are witnessing the stories of multiple high schoolers, starting with a disguised devil not being able to fit in the human world. As the story progresses, the friendships between two gangs, rivals at first, continues to strengthen through the love they have for each other
(Inspired by RosyClozy’s series, The Music Freaks)
Notes:
-this is a long term project, so expect me to bother you a lot if you’re selected:3. I’m a very slow animator so it will take a while (the project will probably have 8 seasons with 8 episodes each so… yeah… I’ll be getting stage 54 burnout🥰), but since I’m slow I obviously won’t be expecting much from you, just communication. I’m gonna give very big deadlines for each line so that you can record whenever you’re free, without stressing
-beginners welcome! I’m also a beginner at.. everything.. and I have no idea what I’m doing.. so.. if you’re a beginner you’re encouraged to apply:3
-13+, we will be using discord once I’ve selected everyone so we can not only communicate more efficiently, but also meet the rest of the cast and have fun!
-I think it'd be best if I started assigning on the 1st of december so I can give everyone a chance instead of doing "first come first serve" to the first submission I like
-if you don’t have a mic, the phone works too. You can record your audio in bandlab and press on “denoise” on your track so that the bg noise is diminished
❗️❗️IMPORTANT❗️❗️
ALL main characters MIGHT need to sing. Don’t worry, I can teach you.. I’m not the best singer or the best teacher, but anyone can sing, so there’s no excuse. It’s just your limiting belief:3 (if we REALLY can’t figure out a solution, then I’ll do the singing.. except I’d need the guys to figure it out since I can’t sing for the guy characters:,3)
-if I missed anything I’ll edit the description. If you have any questions you can DM me here
Name: Lucy
Age: 15
Likes: purple, singing (and Alex)
Dislikes: angels, bullies (wow)
❗️❗️ REQUIRES SINGING!
Lucy is a disguised devil in the human world to hide from.. someone. She’s shy and insecure at first, but gets more comfortable/confident when she’s around friends. Oh and when she’s angry she forgets she’s shy🥰
It’s.. just.. what I like wearing(shy), it’s none of your business! (bit shy but irritated)
Oh great, Alex is- (irritated; barely audible, talking to herself) wait. ALEX!?? (Loud; scared)
Or what. (angry/irritated; quieter) (you can also add your portfolio here)
Name: Alex
Age: 15
Likes: black, anything chill, his friends
Dislikes: ???
Alex is a very chill person, but doesn’t hesitate when his friends (or anyone else) is bullied and stands up for everyone. His voice is calm and friendly, and even when he takes his friends’ side he’s calm
Hey Lucy! (friendly and a bit excited) What a coincidence, huh?
Hey Lucy, are you okay? We saw what happened. Sorry we didn’t come help earlier. (genuine)
Cool! You’re sitting behind me (a bit excited) (You can also add your portfolio)
Nickname: Tails
Age: 14
Likes: COOKIES, nice people, animals, did I mention cookies?
Dislikes: fires.
He’s is literally inspired by Tails from Sonic the hedgehog, so take him as a voice reference, maybe a bit higher pitched, less breathy and less exaggerated.
COOKIEEEESS!!!! (loud and excited)
(Don’t have other lines ready, give some Tails interpretations and/or your portfolio)
Name: James
Age: 15
Likes: studying, good grades.. you get the idea.
Dislikes: staying up late, bad grades
If you couldn’t tell already, James is a nerd who scores 100 on every test. He often doesn’t have time for hobbies because he has to prepare for tests as soon as the school year starts (he probably thinks studying is a hobby). He’s shy, can’t stand up for himself and would rather lock himself in the school’s library than ever having to make eye contact with another person again. If you’re a shy/anxious guy, this role is perfect for you:3
Can’t right now, I have to study
Did you know that stomach acid can burn through metal, but it doesn't burn through our bodies because of a thick sticky layer of mucus in the stomach that's alkaline and buffers the acid? (fast talking, a bit excited)
(Anything else you think he could say and/or your portfolio)
Name: Gabriel
Age: 15
Likes: Maddie, being/looking cool, lollipops
Dislikes: idk
Gabriel is one of the 6 bullies in the series. He’s the leader of his “gang”, and they love bullying other people. Even though he’s a jerk to others, he cares about his friends and is loyal.
For his voice, I’m thinking smth like Shining Armor from mlp:

Or sonic adventure 2 shadow:
You can’t be for real. (Add your interpretation, there’s a lot of versions that can work for this line)
There’s no one I would choose over you (sincere)
(Add your portfolio if u want/have one)
Age: 15
Likes: red, and.. whatever girls usually like..
Dislikes: idk anymore too many characters
Maddie is a brat (at first). She has a high pitched (but not too high) annoying bratty voice. However, she’ll mostly be genuine after ep 1-2. She’s loyal to her friends, but mostly Gabriel
You can also apply for the other 2 brats, but note they aren’t the main cast so won’t be needed much. They appear in the first couple episodes from the first season, then they’re “forgotten”, but might be brought back in a later season
Don’t you mess with us. (serious)
Are you out of your mind!? (angry high pitched)
Oh, you’ll see. (a bit malefic) (you can also add your portfolio)
Name: Julian
Age: 15
Likes: his hair..?, maybe princesses
Dislikes: wearing colours probably
You’ll never guess who inspired me to make this character (cough king julian cough cough)
Anyways.. he’s a very sarcastic person and can turn anything into a joke. Kinda like jax, but sonic is the best example of what I’m looking for (https://youtu.be/DnGdxYgptAw?is=lMt_ceB4vrmDeVtc)
Well.. if it isn’t the angel cosplayer and the annoying nerds. Who would’ve thought? (sarcastic)
Anything for you, my queen (dunno how to explain this, a bit sarcastic but also serious somehow..?😭)
(Try come up with smth and/or add your portfolio if you have one)
Age: 15
Likes: music, piercings, maybe art
Dislikes: nothing
I haven’t rlly thought abt this character that much, but he’ll have his time to shine trust. He’s chill and isn’t bothered by.. anything..? Apart from that for his voice I have no idea.
(Genuinely have no idea, add smth yourself and/or your portfolio if you have one)
Besides Maddie, there’s 2 other brats that have a similar voice, both bratty and annoying, so I decided to put them both in the same role. If you audition and have a preference mention it in the comments (brat #1 is left, brat #2 is right)
Note that they will mostly be relevant in ep 1-2, and may or may not appear in the following seasons. I’m gonna try and keep them alive so that the main cast interacts with them more often, but I don’t think it’s gonna be much, that’s why I can’t figure out if they’re side or bg characters
*chuckles* Of course she wasn’t looking, she’s busy carrying BOOKS around! (sarcastic) (brat #2)
Why are you cosplaying an angel anyway? (bratty; context: making fun of Lucy)
(You can add your portfolio or do some other bratty impressions if you wanna)
I’m gonna need someone to do a few lines for a teacher, you can apply for this role (or any other) even if you have already applied for another
I’m probably gonna need a quite monotone voice (since you know, teachers are boring)
Okay class, today you will be learning about something very boring that you’ll probably never gonna need in your life (monotone boring voice)
