This is an animated short film in collaboration with a friend of mine for their school assessment piece.
It features three main characters - Isaac, Pharaoh and Icarus - and follows the story of Icarus becoming corrupted and Pharaoh's journey to find and defeat him in order to overcome the corruption.
Progress can be shared along the way as the animated segments are completed, so please ensure you have a Discord if you would like to be updated!
Things to note:
Thank you so much!! I look forward to listening to the auditions!
Isaac has a deep, smooth male voice. He acts as a narrator in this animated short. He is a non-human character, taking the form of a bearded vulture-like dragon.
In total, Isaac says about 736 words, or 35 individual lines.
* Muural: pronounced mew-rall (as in "wall")
* No limit on the accent, please feel free to audition with what you think is best :)
The Birdfolk of Muural were the first to venerate him - the first to give him life. Icarus was born from their regard of the sun, and the light it brought across the land. Even though it’s heat brought death to those who dwelled in it too long, the citizens of Muural understood the sun’s importance in maintaining life across the land, and for that they held great respect.
In return for their fealty to him, Icarus granted the villagers a great kindness; respite from the brutal desert sun by directing the sun’s heat away from their town, in turn causing a cool, lush oasis to form.
Something drew him to it. It’s radiance and power attracted him like a moth to a flame. He wanted to harness its strength and make it his own. He wanted to revel in its heat and let its fire consume him. And, ultimately, that is what came to be.
Pharaoh is a non-verbal character who only makes very low pitched humming noises. If you would like to add effects to your voice, please feel free. In the project, Pharaoh will have a very deep voice and sound vaguely otherworldly.
*Make a contemplative humming sound*
*Make a growling/humming noise of determination*
*Make a humming noise of pain*
