Heya!
I'm Venik Hue and I'm attempting to make an animated series on Youtube called Silver Lining. For a better introduction check out this video on my channel that has a great overview of this project
:https://youtu.be/dwsZ1zC_EVc?si=Z6wi6YMCg-VKhfyC
I'm currently looking for three voice actors for characters whose details can be seen below. This will be a long term project and you will need to return for multiple episodes however don't worry. The work load will be extremely spread out due to animations taking many months to make and as of right now the script for the next episode only has lines for Adler and the two characters I voice. The voice actors selected for Allison and Sylvia won't have any work for a long time but it will be nice to have them on hand for when I need them. They'll both be very important in the future.
Here is the first episode and a meme of Silver Lining so you can get a better feel of the world.
Episode 1: https://youtu.be/lCiSJJU8nWg?si=NWzyfsr7oTeDWiCh
Meme: https://youtu.be/H_Gk1G2LInw?si=E18Onc2daRZJYuj4
Summary:
1. If you get chosen for a role I will be coming back to you for multiple episodes but these will be very spaced out.
2. The recording quality doesn't have to be perfect and you don't need a professional mic. Heck I'm using a gamer microphone. Just make sure to minimize echoes and background noise. I personally use my blanket to cover myself and the mic, uncomfortable but works pretty well to isolate your voice in my opinion.
3. I only have Discord when it comes to communication so include your discord username in your submission so I can contact you.
Note
If you are a professional and are on the fence weather or not to audition. Contact me through my Gmail which you can find on my channels about page
Heya!
Never thought that so many people would audition! Thank you all for the support and for contributing to this project. I'm unfortunately still quite busy with school stuff. But after that I'll finally be able to properly listen through everyone's submissions.
If I think you're a good fit I'll dm you at around next weekend and if you accept I will close the role so everyone knows.
Doctor Adler Opus, a mature adult whose ego knows few bounds. From underdog to the oppressor, a life once filled with struggle he clawed his way to his throne. A pretentious narcissist but one look at his life will make one wonder how he has not gone full megalomaniacal.
And yet despite how much he claimed to detest everyone else, it was the only family he had ever had.
Main voice inspiration is V.II Snail from Armored Core VI

However this one voice from the site director from the Confinement series is also a large inspiration

timestamp 19:00
(Formal, calm) Greetings, I am Doctor Adler Opus. As you know I am exceedingly busy so make this quick
(Annoyed, snobbish) Oh, you two. Back to bother me are you?
(Angry) Why do you always have to ruin everything!? You sicken me, all of you!
An older woman and yet one could still say that she has aged terribly over the years. Having buried herself in work her hair began greying far earlier than usual. Decades of mistakes over and over has taught her wisdom beyond her years, a hardened stoic who remains calm in the face of crisis.
She had a fire within that wouldn't let her quit
Sylvia's voice will be very similar to Grayson from Arcane.
Grayson compilation for refrence: https://youtu.be/q9IgUYnbE0g?si=itagW7CyS8qv_yN2
However I understand this this is an extremely specific voice that is nearly impossible to do so simply the voice of an older woman with a slight rasp to her voice is more than fine. The voice is to be prominently more on the feminine side.
Another voice inspiration is Savathun from Destiny 2
(Warm) Hello, I am Sylvia Argent. Do not be alarmed, you are not in any trouble.
(Stoic Conversation) I see, that will cause issues but it will not be too much of a hassel
(Scolding) What were you thinking? We had a deal. Now I'll have to fix your mess like always.
Allison Newmaker, a brilliant woman seeking to discover the secrets of the world no matter the cost. She had an aura of charm and personality that no one could say no to. Making connections and earning favours she quickly moved up in the world. She claimed that everything was for the thrill of discovery but some noticed the strings she pulled in the background.
While I did list Allmind from Armored Core VI as an inspiration, Allison's voice is less specific than the other two and Allmind was just the closest I could find.

Her voice is relatively similar to Allmind but a lot less robotic and more so organic and upbeat however with a slight intimidating tone.
(Formal, Upbeat) Heya, I'm Allison Newmaker. Don't be shy, make yourself at home
(Friendly threatening) Oh by the way, it's not gonna happen soon soon but I would suggest finding some good shelter. Welp I'll be seeing ya, toodles
(Anger, Frustration) Just stop interfering! Can't you see I'm trying to fix everything!?
