Supercell Fan Animation
Project Overview
Greetings voice actors and creators! You may call me Charley and I have a job for you. I want to make teaser for a potential fan animation, and I need someone to voice the character. As of now this is a fan teaser, and should everything go well, it will turn into a fan animation with more lines and one more character.
For context, Supercell is a web comic that has been going on for a number of years now. The creator, BMBrice, created two blender rigs of his main characters and gave them away for free. I asked if I could make a fan animation with said characters and he said yes. So if you are interested, please give it a shot.
This is an unpaid role, but the lines aren't very long. I must insist that you use a good quality microphone and that you record in a silent environment. If there is any noise in the background, then you will not be picked. That said, I look forward to hearing your auditions!
I've posted a storyboard of the teaser and voiced it myself so you can see what I'm going for.
Also, take a look at the Supercell comic if you can, it's really good: https://www.supercellcomic.com/index.html

Since we don't have any audio for how Kheil sounds, we have a little bit of leeway. In my head, I kinda picture her with something of voice similar to Korra from Legend of Korra, so let's go down that route. Be sure to read the first 30 panels of the comic so you can have a good idea of how to voice her.

Born and raised at the prestigious Nasriaten Academy, Kheil is an excitable little go-getter who doesn't quite realize the grim reality of her "child soldier" destiny. She's devoted her entire life to mastering the art of war, and is widely recognized as a skilled martial artist. But although she's embraced her fate with gusto, she remains stuck in that childlike mindset where EVERYONE needs to know how awesome she is. Especially her Dad. Who never seems to be impressed no matter what she does. (I stole most of this from her character info page) So basically a slightly younger Korra with daddy issues.
As far as accents go, I'd like to stick to North American, but feel free to make multiple submissions with different accents.
To set the scene, she is psyching herself up for an obstacle course test. Although she's aced it a dozen times, her father keeps failing her and she doesn't know why. Befuddled, she has no other choice than to go all out... as usual.
Make sure she sounds Excited, Insecure, Frustrated, and Focused at the same time. Feel free to experiment with other emotions as well.
Choose any of the three lines, or all of them if you like. But please send no more than 5 submissions. That'll give you plenty of opportunities to experiment.

Okay. You got this Kheil. You got this. Just follow the plan.
Breath. (pause) Keep calm. (pause)
Focus. (epic pause) And go! (almost an epic whisper)
Alrighty then. We know the drill now, don't we Kheil? (sarcasm) It's no different from last time. (fed up)
Breath. (frustrated) Keep calm. (calming down)
Focus. (in the zone) And make him notice! (serious)
Your own version of either two lines. Feel free to experiment and try multiple submissions.
