The Fortunate Sons [SFM]
Project Overview
I'm working on a new SFM animation and could use some extra animators and voice actors for the characters.
- It’s called “The Fortunate Sons”
- This animation is about a fictional story set in the Vietnam War.
- This is the first time I'm doing anything like this and to be honest, I just hope at least one person auditions.
- Once you put your information in I'll add you on discord so that we can start communicating what to do right away.
- For the paid roles, this should be an easy $20 that you can make in around an hour. (I'm not super sure since I'm not a voice actor)
My Youtube Is Here (I use "Calamari" for all my accounts)
If you'd like to see my other animations, I'd recommend checking out all of the animation tests I've done on my channel since they're very militaristic just like how this animation should end up being.
Random Stuff to note
- This animated short film is 3d and made in SFM.
- The video preview is going to be the intro to the film (unless we decide to change it)
- This will be posted on my Youtube channel.
- Payment will be around 5 and 15 dollars depending on how many views the video gets but the Vietnamese actor will be paid 20 simply because of the difficulty of finding someone to fill that role.
- Credit will be given with your name and a link to whatever you'd like.
- I'd prefer to pay with PayPal.
If there are any questions, send me a message.(Discord: Calamari#0191) I'm open to answering.

I could really use some help animating some of the scenes in SFM. If you want to help, literally just tell me your discord and I'll talk more with you there.

Viper-1-2 this is Delta, we are 10 clicks out, I repeat we are approaching on LZ.
Fuck! Gary, Johnson's KIA. We need to get the hell out of here!
Listen to me, Gary, whatever Quang told you, it's not true. We were dead from the start and now the North is coming for our asses!
Gary is a newly picked soldier with little experience fresh out of boot camp. He’s young and hopes to return home safely to his family.

Everyone in my family's an accountant 'cept for me cause I was never really good at it. That's why I joined the military I suppose.
Jesus. Brother, you just saved my life!
So it was all a lie then. And all my life I never thought I'd know desperation like I did today.
This is the pilot of the little bird helicopter.

Copy that. Viper-1-1 bearing east 28 degrees weather is looking stable. Shit, Nolan come take a look at this.
MAYDAY, Viper is going down! Requesting immediate support! (Fast and Desperate)
I wasn't the same after I lost my leg. Every day I think about the moment when I couldn't feel it there anymore.
Quang is a toughened Vietnamese war veteran but after the purchase of his restaurant, he starts to look for ways to get money to survive. He uses violence and intimidation to get his way.

Listen, American, you work for me now and that means you do what I say.
I don't care if you weren't talking to me. If you talk to my staff like that you can shut up and get out of my store. (say this in Vietnamese whichever way you think would translate best)
Yes, and unfortunately they are sending a convoy of troops led by an armored vehicle to us as well.
This person voices all of the Vietnamese soldiers (say all of the lines in Vietnamese and translate the best way you think it would sound)
