Soniva God (Official Teaser Trailer Project)

Soniva God (Official Teaser Trailer Project)

Project Overview

WELCOME TO SONIVA GOD


DISCLAIMER: THIS IS AN INDIE PASSION PROJECT. I NEED PEOPLE WHO ARE WILLING TO WORK FOR FREE!!


I've been making this project's story from scratch and i need dedicated companions who are willing to contribute to this project's creation. I say this to say that if you want to join, all roles will be unpaid until further notice, but if this series ever gets monetized, I fully intend on properly paying EVERYONE for their work and giving full credit where it is due in the project credits.


Soniva God is an Alternate Universe project inspired by the Hazbin Hotel / Helluva Boss universe. Unlike the original series that's setting and characters are set in Hell, this project completely flips the script and explores a highly stylized Heavenly realm with biblical themes and characters that make unique appearances in unique ways.


The story of Soniva God follows a colorful trio of angels that have been tasked with protecting human souls and defending Earth from demonic invasions, all while working towards a larger reward, to be exhalted with the honor of becoming one of the Sons of God. However, what they don't know is that to recieve this holy promotion, they're going to have to face threats far beyond their power...


This specific project aims to create an Animatic Teaser Trailer to serve as a proof-of-concept, establish my visual benchmark, and build a community before launching a full Pilot episode.

THE TEASER PREMISE:

The teaser is a small, introductory sequence.

1. The Calm: The trio is relaxing at their favorite Heavenly cafe, "Manna Cabana."

2. The Alarm: A divine messenge blares from their special watches, warning of a demonic invasion on Earth.

3. The Launch: The team shifts into combat mode and stylishly dives through a cloudy vortex toward the mortal realm.

= In this small trailer, the viewers will be introduced to the character's personalities and the fresh setting of Heaven.

CREATIVE INTEGRITY & COPYRIGHT NOTICE

* All names, specific lore mechanics, and backstories for Powder, Vigil, and Angie are creatively owned by me. However, the current character concepts for them are generated by AI based on the specific character designs I created them to have. I look forward to hiring a proper character artist to make Powder, Vigil, and Angie's official designs.

* Full, prominent credit will be provided to all creators across all final distribution platforms.


P.S.=

  • Now, my intention is to raise money/funding for this project via Kickstarter campaign or something. However, I don't wanna make any promises so for now, all roles are unpaid. Besides, I'm looking for talented and passionate people that want to audition because they genuinely want to take part in the journey of Soniva God's creation, not solely for the money.

  • This is my very first official project, so bare with me if I've accidentally caused any confusion😅. But just in case I have, DM me on CCC if you have any questions, my Discord is: kingnik_daking. Alright, see ya around!

ROLE DESCRIPTION:

I am looking for a Storyboard Artist to take the finalized teaser script and translate it into a fluid, visual animatic. You will bridge the gap by mapping out camera angles, character framing, and key poses.

Once the rough panels are approved, you will use those as a blueprint for the final, cleaned up drawings for the animatic. Then finally, you will sync them to our voice actors' audio tracks to create a timed, rough video (or... just an official Animatic for short).

WHAT YOU WILL BE MAPPING OUT:

The Cafe Scene: Capturing the casual, expressive acting of our trio at Manna Cabana.

The Emotional Transformations: Visually pacing the shift where Vigil's cloak turns cosmic and Angie's hair transforms into a stormy cloud.

The Climax: Designing a dynamic, high-energy, cinematic diving sequence as the trio plummets through a cloudy vortex toward Earth.

SUBMISSION REQUIREMENT:

Please link a storyboarding reel showcasing at least one scene from above. It doesn't have to be the entire scene (Hmm, I'm guessing around 4-5 boards minimum). I value quality over quantity. Remember, the important thing I'm looking for in your audition is your understanding of camera perspective, pacing, and character expression.

P.S.- Because I know how hard and time consuming animation can be, I will likely hire multiple people to fulfill the role.

ROLE DESCRIPTION:

I am looking for a collaborative, passionate, and sharp scriptwriter to take our established teaser outline and turn it into a formatted, punchy, 1-page screenplay. You will be responsible for drafting the snappy dialogue and character traits for our main trio.

CHARACTER VOICES TO CAPTURE:

  • Powder: Proud, smooth, charismatic. Speaks with effortless, neat confidence. (Think Alastor from Hazbin Hotel, but he's a good guy).

  • Vigil: Mellow and chill in his base form. Shifts into a cold, deep, serious tone when his cloak changes to "Starry Night."

  • Angie: Soft, bubbly, optimistic, and deeply naive. Panics quickly when human souls are in danger.

SUBMISSION / AUDITION REQUIREMENT:

To apply for this role, please complete the brief test prompt below:

TEST PROMPT: Write a dialogue exchange between Powder and Vigil sitting at the cafe table *just before* they get the call to action. Show Powder being his confident and leaderly self, and Vigil responding with his nonchalant, chill attitude. Keep it under 90 words total.

= If you have any questions or concerns, please don't be afraid to DM me on CCC.

Role assigned to: Raen_Starzy

ROLE DESCRIPTION:

I am looking for a talented character designer to finalize the official reference sheets (turnarounds, expressions, and color palettes) for our three main protagonist angels.

THE DESIGN CHALLENGES (WHAT YOU WILL BE DRAWING):

Some characters rely heavily on dynamic, visual transformations based on their emotions. You must be comfortable designing:

1. Powder (The Power Angel): A proud, smooth, charismatic warrior angel. He needs a sleek aesthetic, sharp expressions, and a unique, elegant golden Epee sword (fencing style, not a heavy spear).

2. Vigil (The Virtue Angel): A chill/mellow, tall mysterious figure whose face is completely hidden under a deep hoodie except for simple, round glowing eyes and a mouth. His main feature is a cloak that shifts environments based on his mood: a warm Sunset Form (base) and a cosmic, star-flecked Starry Night Form (angry).

3. Guardiangelo / Angie (The Guardian Angel): A soft, deeply naive, bubbly angel. His main feature is his hair: fluffy, curly white Cumulus Cloud hair (happy), which physically unravels and morphs into a long, swirling, sparking Storm Cloud (distressed).

SUBMISSION / APPLICATION REQUIREMENT:

ART TEST PROMPT:

Please submit a rough sketch or concept drawing of ONE of the following characters to demonstrate how you handle emotional mechanics:

Ex:

* A sketch showing Angie's hair transitioning from a fluffy white cloud to a stormy white cloud.

* A sketch showing Vigil's eyes/posture shifting from his mellow sunset state to his dead-serious starry night state.

  • I will try to provide to you a general idea of what I want the main three to look like using the AI generated pictures I've created for reference.

ROLE DESCRIPTION:

I am looking for a creative Composer/Producer to craft the official musical identity for Soniva God. You will be responsible for creating the main theme and the backing tracks for the 45-60 second animated teaser trailer.

THE VISION:

The soundtrack needs to sound heavenly yet high-energy if you catch my drift (I don't know a lot about music😭). I want to blend traditional gospel instrumentation and soul with modern music genres like Pop and Hip-Hop.

The Gospel Element: Heavy use of soulful church organs, rich acoustic piano chords, brass stabs, and layered choral harmonies/vocal riffs.

The Modern Elements: Upbeat pop percussion, synthesized basslines, electronic transitions, and smooth, syncopated jazz rhythms, etc. (You get it)

The Vibe: Think energetic, cinematic, theatrical, and punchy; perfectly timed to match fast-paced animation cuts.

SUBMISSION REQUIREMENT:

I am specifically looking for you to make a track that showcases your ability to blend acoustic/traditional instruments with digital production, or music with a strong theatrical/jazz/pop flair.

To help get a vague idea of the type of OST I'm looking for, heres a link to the instrumental of Trap Royalty. Take note of how it uses a mix of different instrumental mediums with gospel to make a fire beat: https://youtu.be/7g9lvw_vQyQ?si=YMXPIiJFS-jg0QPV

ROLE DESCRIPTION:

I am looking for a Sound Designer to handle the atmospheric audio, foley, and final audio mix for our teaser trailer. You will combine the voice tracks, the composer's music, and custom sound effects into a crisp, cinematic audio file.

SPECIFIC SOUND EFFECTS NEEDED:

Heaven Ambient Audio: A pristine, slight neon-buzz atmosphere for the "Manna Cabana" cafe.

Powder’s Epee: Clean, metallic, echoing blade swishes and a distinct, sharp CHING when he sheathes it.

The Divine Alarm: A sudden, quick, melodic yet urgent heavenly chime grid that alerts the trio.

Transformation FX: A warm, swooshing sound for Vigil’s cloak shift, and a low, crackling thunder/spark effect when Angie’s hair turns into a storm cloud.

The Dive: A roaring wind and energy-trail sound effect as the trio plummets toward Earth.

SUBMISSION REQUIREMENT:

Please choose TWO effects to replicate and link it with the title of the sound effect you've made. You MUST make it youself. No borrowing sound effects from other media.

CHARACTER OVERVIEW:

*Role: Protagonist / The long-range cosmic powerhouse of the trio.

*Vocal Archetype: Really deep voice, soothing, incredibly smooth, and relaxed.

*Accent/Tone: Sounds like a chill, mellow guy. His voice is naturally calming, warm, and slow-paced with a twinge of friendliness in his base form.

*The Shift: When pushed to his limits or angered, he doesn't yell. Instead, his voice remains deep and calm, but drops into a dead-serious, freezing, and threatening tone. It carries a quiet, cruelty that instantly shifts the energy of the room.

*Personality: The anchor of the group. He is patient and relaxed most of the time (Sunset form) and possesses massive, terrifying sky/space manipulation powers when he snaps (Starry Night form).

CHARACTER OVERVIEW:

*Role: Protagonist / The emotional heart of the trio.

*Vocal Archetype: Childlike, bubbly, and enthusiastic, but distinctly a mature young adult, energetic, sweet, eager to please, and full of pure "golden retriever" innocence.

*The Panic Shift: When he gets into severe distress, his voice shifts into a high-pitched, chaotic disparity. He stammers, cracks, and sounds completely heartbroken or overwhelmed, matching his hair turning into a long, flowing storm cloud.

*Personality: Completely faithful to God and fiercely protective of human souls. He is incredibly naive and literally cannot comprehend why anyone or any demon would want to rebel against God.

CHARACTER OVERVIEW:

* Role: Recurring Supporting Character / The Trio's Superior Officer.

*Vocal Archetype: Deep, authoritative, clinical, and completely straight-to-the-point.

* Vibe: Think of a stern military commander, a high-ranking corporate executive, or a mysterious overseer. He carries the heavy weight of Heaven's bureaucracy on his shoulders.

He acts dead-serious, completely strictly business, and has zero patience for slacking or joking around. Though, he's secretly a sweet heart! He communicates exclusively via a holographic projection on the trio's watches.

Howdy! I'm in need of a video editor to edit the sound FX and voicelines together into one, finished, squeaky clean animatic. I don't just need any ol' editor though, I need someone who also specializes in motion graphics and camaraderie shakes, blur, glow, etc. I'm not very picky so if you can't do any of this stuff, thats fine! Just send me what you can do and I'll determine if it's what I'm looking for. I can't really think of an audition prompt to give you for a project like this, so instead just put a link to your profolio or any other projects you've done.
