The SpaceDust+ Animated Short Series!
Project Overview
Greetings!
Hi Hi! Thank you for stopping by and checking out the SpaceDust+ project!! This is one of the many projects we have in mind, over at SuperCruch. SpaceDust+ is a 7 episode, mini-series that works to explain SpaceDust character relationships, worldbuilding, and general lore. In short, we’re going to be telling a bunch of short stories! (check out our project synopsis here!)
We are looking for a few roles on our growing team to help create an awesome animated project!
Who we are, and what we doSuperCrunch is a small indie creative studio focused on developing multiple sources of media and artistic works, such as animation, comic creation/dubs, commercial, and storytelling. We are a growing studio, and we’d love to get to know you!
What the heck is SpaceDust+?SpaceDust is a story about the adventures of stupid humans and crazy aliens. As exciting as that totally sounds, the story is pretty complex. Why wait for it all to be completed in order to produce something??? SpaceDust+ (plus) is a side series that aims to tell some of the shorter stories SpaceDust (main) fails to deliver on.
What we look forFirst and foremost, you guys are insanely talented! (Don’t forget to show that while auditioning!) While going through your lines, we look for:
- Strong Personality and a good capture of the character
- Clean recordings
- Communication skills
- Commitment
- Fun while auditioning!
- For those applying for audio composing/editing roles: examples of some of the things you do!
Feel free to submit trimmed lines and clean samples of what you wish to bring to the table, but please try not to over-adjust your voice and “style it up” to an extent, we want to hear your voice! (not a computers'!)
In addition to the main roles on the casting call, we will have a slew of side/background characters for which additional voice acting would be necessary, meaning, we might ask that you would provide your vocal talent to multiple characters!
If you’re cast, aside from getting a super congratulations from me, you would additionally get an invitation into the SuperCrunch family, and access to our work discord. Here you will meet the rest of the team, gather information about the project, and learn more about what you can do to help advance our creative visions!
SpaceDust+ takes place over 7 episodes, each broken up into 2 halves, averaging around 15-18 minutes per episode. We ask that you audition with the intent of sticking with us throughout our entire journey!
The Deadline to apply is September 8th!
Thank you for reading, and gooooood luck!! <3
Thank you guys for auditioning! We have quite a bit of work to sort through in the next couple of weeks!!
Roles will be finalized before the 8th of September, and those of you who are cast for specific roles will be notified beforehand!
In addition, since you guys are so talented, we are also considering pulling a few more of y'all to the team for additional character roles on the show, which are not displayed here! Nice!

We are extremely happy (and honestly, overwhelmed) by the sheer amount of support we've gotten over the previous month for the project! Now our next step is to bring a few of you guys over on the team to assist with our production! In the upcoming days, we will begin to cast roles to those who we feel did an outstanding take on the characters and captured their personalities! We have a lot of work to do, and I can easily guess it won't be that easy of a decision! In addition: Since you guys are so talented, we decided that bringing in additional members who fit additional roles on the show is also in our interest. Although those roles aren't listed here on the casting call, they are just as important, so our selection here will be just as particular! If you wanted to follow the project outside of the casting call, check out our newly created Twitter page! https://twitter.com/SupercrunchO Cheers!
Mae (17) is a very athletic and talented individual. She can play (and pretty much place 1st in) any sport known to man, or alien kind. She was never one to leave her "athletic mindset" at home! The problem occurs when she begins to socialize with people she's not too familiar with...
Mae is often the middleman of the group, being the one to de-escalate situations and provide reason to a lot of insensible problem-solving solutions. However, this won't hinder her from having a good time with her out-of-this-world friends!
Grieved with this slight case of extreme social anxiety Mae's leadership skills are always being tested, however with Stella — her NABFFITEG (New Alien Best Friend Forever In The Entire Galaxy) those tests are sure to end in a success!.. Or near-death experiences.
(normal to an increasingly annoyed tone) I decided to go back later today since I'm the only one with a wish still -- But more importantly, who's this in my house?
(irritated) Anyways, Imma need you to go to the store and get more milk... I have to stay behind to make sure Stella and June don't go to war with each other. Again.
(modest) Physically, yes, I could fight that alligator, but just.. imagine the emotional toll....
Percy (17) is one of the toughest nails in the toolbox, granted upon closer inspection, that nail isn't very sharp, and would instantly shatter if you hit it too hard, but boy does that nail look tough from a distance.
Percy is a host to a parasite which he's named Wolfric, at his command, they can swap places in order to carry out various tasks and perform different things. By nature, Percy is very tidy and likes to keep things organized and clean, however, bound by the advice Stella reluctantly gives him, he ends up finding himself in more messes than he cares to clean up. He's not one to give up on things so easily no matter how many times he gets knocked down.
Does his daily commitment of trying to get Mae to like him, ultimately go unnoticed? Yes. Does he ever let that get to him? Only on Wednesdays. Regardless, Percy's natural sense of persevering always gets him back on his feet!
(annoyed) Well... if you're not stalking me, how come we're in the same exact grocery store, in the same exact aisle, going for the same exact... product?
(Panicked; as if his life is on the line) IF I KNEW YOU WANTED MILK THIS BADLY, I WOULD'VE GONE TO THE TARGET DOWN THE STREET!
Huh, guess this is life now. I'm gonna to go break something to feel better...
Sister of Stella SpaceDust and hater of people, June (20) often limits her time interacting with humans and would rather spend it in more benifitial areas, such as catching up on a new season of her favorite anime.
Don't doubt her ability though, she is an extremely dangerous and hot-headed creature. June carries a "Don't you dare look down on me, foolish mortal" kind of attitude, and despite her saying otherwise, she's most likely just fishing for attention. Her tempered attitude can often be subdued by the right set of circumstances, many of which Gavin is fairly familiar with.
Although June might be hard to approach for a variety of reasons, at the end of the day, it's obvious she secretly cares for her friends.
(arrogantly) What? Of course this hat was free! If I threaten the cashier long enough, they lower the price. It's called haggling.
I was told I can't solve problems anymore by bringing a sword... So I brought two.
(aggravated) Stella! That was my dry cereal you BRAT!
Gavin (22) is the handyman of the group. Although he seems to know a lot more than he should, his emotions are extremely genuine and he's good at keeping a level head. Although he is a workaholic... you can often see him with half-lidded eyes as he tries his best to have an unreadable expression. He's very playful and level-headed when it comes to his speech.
Besides Stella, Gavin is one of the closest people to June. This may be in part because of his unshakeable attitude, which can sustain June's constant and (sometimes not necessary) emotional abuse, or because he's Candian. Either or, Gavin pays no mind to the negatives, and would rather have fun while around June and Stella.
Gavin runs a small comic and cafe, managed by his 6-year-old, business-minded, little sister Rhea. So it's pretty clear to say that with the toughest boss ever, he's pretty good when it comes to following instructions.
Welcome to the Cosmic Cafe, Don't know how you got in here, because we're currently closed... But.. Welcome anyway!
I've been conducting an ongoing study to see what foods June will, and will not eat. And by study, I mean I've taken her through nine different drive-throughs.
(playfully) Hmm. Not bad. You seem to be around a lot more to lend a hand, I'll be sure to return the favor!
You will be responsible for compiling short and fitting musical accompaniments for background that'll fit the scenes' emotion, location, or character emotion or expression, you have a lot of creative freedom with this position!
Say something you think would fit
