Firebase August [Starcraft Fan Film]
Project Overview
[Introduction]
Help me bring a short Starcraft story to life! I am expecting the short to be more or less about 2 minutes long and will be a stationary camera shot of the surrounding battle taking place. All 3D assets are completed and VFX/animations are more or less finished also.
I tried to imitate the art style of the old SciFi flavors like Aliens and Starship troopers, much like the original and Brood War Starcraft Saga. I'm imagining the story beats of this short will be a similar callback to the old Starcraft style. This is my first major undertaking of such a project.
Once all the auditions are completed, I expect the project would take an estimated ~4 weeks to complete collating and integrating the voice lines and sound effects into Unity Cinema
[Story]
The story takes place in an "alternative" timeline of Starcraft, and takes place in December 2499 (Earth Calendar) on one of the Confederate moon bases in the Sara system during first contact with the Protoss. The Protoss with their vastly superior technology and formidable fleet threatens to quickly overwhelm the defenses of the moon base. The terrifying final moments of the moon base are recovered and their fates made known on a battle cam salvaged amidst the rubble of the destroyed moon base installation.

Latest Updates

I wanted to reach out to all auditioning participants and say thank you so much for your interest and efforts in this project. I don't say this lightly - I've really been amazed by the level of quality in these auditions. Over the next few days I will be making the difficult decision of finding the best fit for these VA roles. I will try to finalize this by the weeks end and update everyone then. Once again, thank you all for your incredible auditions
This fighter commander is leading a desperate air defense against overwhelming odds. They should be someone with leader-like voice qualities (firmness, confidence) and also have the desperation of the situation creep into their voices
[Radio broadcast to air wing] (Determined): All remaining knights on me, we need to give August time to evacuate their survivors
(Angry): They're taking down the Everest, evasive maneuvers
Base radio operator. The feel I am going for is that they should sound like they are breaking the usual radio protocol procedures and highlight the panic in the voice.
(Panic) Command we're in danger of being overrun, we need that evac now!
This radio operator should sound like they're trying to keep control of the situation calmly and firmly amidst all the ensuing chaos and panic.
[Responding to a panic mayday call] (Firm, professional): Hang on moon base, Everest battle group is on its way
The feel of the character should be nonchalantly stating the facts on the ground (juxtaposing the panic-stricken Terran allies)
(Nonchalantly) Commander, multiple hostile signatures are entering Moon atmosphere
I will need the help of an Audio Engineer to add various explosions, guns, and missile sound effects.
