The Howl (Student Film)
Project Overview
"The Howl" is a short, 6-minute student film I will be working on and premiering at a festival (eventually). To describe it as simply as possible: it is a film about a foster kid arriving at a new home and his new foster mother figuring out how to connect with him. I am seeking out voice actors, a composer & writer to help bring this project to life.

10-year old wolf-dog boy that has been in-and-out of the foster care system and has trauma from past experiences.
This character is strictly non-verbal and and has no lines in the film. I am seeking a talented voice actor that can bring this character to life by making sounds like sniffing, howling, growling, playful puppy noises, etc. Voice is soft and maybe high-pitched.

Howl Attempt (REQUIRED)
This character is a boar, and he appears in a traumatic flashback where he is extremely harsh and abusive. As such, I am looking for a male actor that can yell and make this character sound really mean.

[*Groan/Sigh*]... I just want a normal son, but instead I got this kid that just runs all over the place and makes a lotta noise.
All I want you to do is one thing right! ONE thing! But no, no, no, you can't even do the simplest thing. The bare minimum. Just... what is wrong with you kid?
I've had enough. Go to your room, right now. No, not the corner. I said your room. If you don't go to your room right now, I'm gonna pick you up and drag you there, you hear me?
