Pieces of the Past Comic Dub (Casting)

Pieces of the Past Comic Dub (Casting)

Project Overview

Introduction

Hello! I am TheTVBunny, starting up a comic dub of a Sonic fan comic called "Pieces of the Past."

"Pieces of the Past" is a series of comics following the events of the "good future," where Silver and Blaze found and freed Shadow from the stasis capsule G.U.N. sealed him in. (This is slightly edited from the actual description described by the creator.)

Requirements

I am very picky with who I choose for roles, and many voice actors I work with follow a set of requirements.

  • Firstly, your voice should fit the part you want to play. There is a description for the character, which should be read before auditioning. This describes the nature and the voice I am looking for. Impressions of these characters are allowed but are not recommended. I will give out references in case, however.
  • Second of all, you need to put forward a good performance. From your interpretation, I want to know whether the character is happy or distressed. I don't want a voice to sound one-note or monotone. This doesn't mean like a robot but keeping a singular emotion throughout a line. Give variety.
  • Next, quality is essential. While an X.L.R. is preferred, a USB microphone can still be used. Anything below a USB, like a headset microphone or a built-in laptop microphone, will not be used.
  • On top of that, please adjust your gain so that it is not clipping and have little to no background noise or static.
  • Also, insulate/soundproof your recording space. This is not to have any room reverb seep into the audio you record. The cheap way to do this is to put a blanket over yourself and double it up depending on your room's echo. Suppose some seeps through; this is perfectly fine. I have my way around it.
  • Lastly, please do not add any effects. Things like E.Q., limiter, normalization, and noise gate/reduction are exceptions to this rule. This is because I will be doing the audio editing/mixing myself.

Though, a few extra things will be needed to audition for the characters...

  • First, I need you to record each take at least two or three times. Anything more than that should be done on shorter lines. The format can be in ABC ABC or AABBCC. I prefer the former.
  • Secondly, please add your Discord username and tag so I can contact you.
  • Lastly, state your age/age group. This project is 13 and over, preferably 15 and over, due to Discord's T.O.S. (Terms of Service).

Some notes to take into account as well...

  • The rates set for the characters are not final and will be split among the parts of the series they are in.
  • There are other roles that I have/will need to be filled in that are off-site.
  • I will do live voice direction for the voice lines to ensure quality. If you are uncomfortable with that, this project is not for you.
  • The rates for voice-over are as follows: The first ten lines you have are $50, and then $3 per line after that. I will count these when the episode you need to voice comes up.
  • There are no transcriptions of the comic because the words are static on the page. I won't waste time getting lines to you when you can have the visuals there to help you.

Latest Updates

  • Finally Everyone is Casted!

    This was a long time coming, but in the end, I got everyone cast! Thank you to those who auditioned for the project and congrats to those who were selected! To those who didn't I have other things you can always count on coming in the future!

    Sorry that this took so long, I had run into computer problems right before the deadline and got them fixed more recently!

  • Starting to Shortlist!

    Hey there, everyone! I just wanted to be transparent and say I want to start shortlisting. With how many of you flocked over here, it made me inclined to think of doing that. I will just be rejecting and shortlisting auditions that come in until the casting call is done, where I will do final tweaks to shortlisting and press onto the casting. I hope this explains any of the rejections you may have gotten! If you have any questions or concerns, just message me, and we can start talking! :)

Project Roles: Shadow the Hedgehog Sonic the Hedgehog Silver

Voice Actor
Shadow the Hedgehog
closed
Paid: Flat Rate 443 USD
Role assigned to: Brian Jeffords

Who is he?

Shadow the Hedgehog is a past lover of Sonic the Hedgehog. Though, Sonic died of natural causes. Throughout this series of comics, Shadow grieves Sonic's loss because of his impact on everyone's lives.

Shadow's personality is somber and reflective. In his youth, however, he was the voice of reason. Almost like an older brother to everyone. He cares deeply for those who are around him. With time, he becomes the last ones standing out of the group. Making him sad and unfulfilled.

Voice Description

Shadow's voice should be deep. It should have a rough and tired tone to it. His voice should not be breathy and edgy. He should also not have a sound of a pre-existing voice either.

Age: 127

  • "*Laughing* They built him... *More Laughter* A GOLDEN STATUE! *EVEN More Laughing* ...what irony." [Incredulous]

  • "And he was a legend, but a living one. Very long-living..." [Endorsing, Somber, Reflective]

  • "You wanted to know the reason... why I did it last time?" [Frustrated, Teary, Vulnerable]

Who is he?

Sonic was a legend. A hero. Someone who could harness unimaginable levels of power at the speed of sound. Sonic the Hedgehog is a dead hero who has done much for the world that he is called a living legend.

Sonic has a bold personality. He holds a lot of pride in what he does because he has saved many people through it. That does not stand in the way of him caring much for the ones he loves. He will do anything for those he is close to, even if it costs others' lives.

Voice Description

I want Sonic to have a mid-tone upbeat tone. Nothing too high or too low in pitch; something that is just right. You can play with his voice. No need to sound like someone else or anything like that.

Age: 102

  • "*Sigh* Being 12 doesn't make him an adult either." [Frustrated]

  • "Even if they won't, that's okay. Because... you can always take my place." [Hopeful, Inspiring]

  • "Still, I wish they would ask me first. This pose is boring, I could show them a better one." [Critical, Playful]

Silver
closed
Paid: Flat Rate 148 USD
Role assigned to: Joe Faolán

Who is he?

Silver is a right-hand man to Blaze the Cat and a knight. He also follows Shadow on his journeys in the present time and acts as a shoulder to lean on. Silver also catches feelings for Shadow later in the series, but Shadow doesn't know how to take this information.

Silver is a curious person. He asks a lot of questions and gets hyper-fixated on different topics. This means he will ramble, but he still listens to other people.

Voice Description

Silver should have a mid-high tone of voice. His voice should have a nasal quality. It should not sound like an average cartoon nerd, however. Try any type of voice for this, do not try to go into an impression of the character.

Age: 23

  • "Even if you do say the grave should be somewhere here... it will be hard to find such an old one." [Skeptical]

  • "Ah, yes, Sonic the Hedgehog, the hero of Mobius. I almost forgot he was buried here." [Excited, Curious]

  • "HE was the one?!" --- "I- I don't know- It's... just..." [Shocked]
