The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time - The Musical (Actors and Artists)

The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time - The Musical (Actors and Artists)

Project Overview

Hey, I'm LegendaryPotatoGuy, and I run Direct Adaptation, the home for fan projects. Our last project, Danganronpa Fandub, didn't go too well, so, I'm getting started on a project, which I can trace the planning all the way back to 2015. It's a Musical Adaptation of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. And while in the stage of last-minute rewrites, and recording Scratch Tracks, I've confirmed I can't sing or draw, so I'm opening the casting for Actors and Artists.

This will be using the game's massive and incredible soundtrack to create a 22-Song Show full of Action, Comedy and Heart. Also, now is the perfect time to do it, because Nintendo just lifted their guidelines for content creation, though this will be non-profit, so, don't expect to be paid.

We're going to need Actors and Artists, so that's what we're casting. For Actors, we will be casting Link, Zelda, Ganondorf, Navi, Sheik, the Sages, Malon, and the Chorus, which is also where we'll be getting our non-singing roles. For Artists, we just need people to draw some stuff so this isn't just the logo, with some text describing stage directions.

Now, what are the rules for Ocarina of Time the Musical. Well, here they are for actors, though a lot of these apply to artists as well.

1. Be at Least Thirteen Years Old. We won't accept anyone younger, no exceptions.

2. Have a Discord. This is the communication Method, so it's absolutely required

3. Have at least a USB Microphone. No Phone, Laptop or Headset Mics will be accepted. Even USB is slightly pushing it

4. This one is optional, but a knowledge of Ocarina of Time would be appreciated. We're not protecting you from spoilers here.

5. This is going to be a time-sink of a project. Like, One Year Minimum, probably longer. Make sure you have time!

6. There are deadlines. Be serious about them. They will be about 1-2 Weeks for Dialouge, 4-6 Weeks for Songs on a scene by scene basis.. If you miss too many, I will be forced to take you're role away

Okay, now that that's out of the way, here are some notes about casting and how it will work.

1. The Ranges are just recommended, if you don't meet the range, but still want to audition, go ahead. You could surprise us.

2. Because of the child and adult versions of a lot of characters, both ages are one role. Preference will go to someone who is able to do both ages, but if need be, we may cast an actor for each age.

3. When it says Singing Sample, you can sing whatever you want. It can be a musical song, a regular song, hey, if you want to sing the Canadian National Anthem, we're not going to stop you. If the character has two ages in the show, a singing sample for both would be appreciated, but is not required

4. In the case that it's extremely close between multiple actors, we'll do callbacks, in which you will be asked to perform a section of the song from the show. The best one at the end of that will get the role

5. For Artists, chances are you'll get the role. Just don't troll us please. The Same Applies to Chorus

6. If you have been accepted, you will be invited to the Private Discord Server, in which you will receive all the materials, in which you'll perform your own songs, join everyone in a table read of the full script, then go off to do a record of your own sections, and Wabamo, you're done!

7. I will try to provide feedback to everyone who auditions, however, if the load gets too much, or I have nothing to say, I may not provide feedback. However, if you specifically ask for feedback, I will laser a note into my corneas, to give you feedback. Maybe not that far, but you get the gist.

8. Don't expect to be cast for multiple roles. We may multi-cast once or twice if it comes to it, however, we'll generally be following the rule of if the character is in the show at the same time as another role, those roles won't share the same actor

9. Keep in mind, the server is in CST, which means 11:59PM, Janurary 31st CST is the latest we’ll accept submissions, if you leave us a message saying you’re going to be a few days late, we’ll accept a 3 Day extension for you, no later

Casting will close on the 1st of February, and sometime in the week after that, the cast will be announced.

I feel like I've ranted enough about this. If you have any questions, shoot me a message or leave a comment, or maybe fly a blimp across the sky and I'll be sure to answer it. Now, either get your auditions ready or leave this page in disgust, because Ocarina the Musical Casting Starts Now!

Latest Updates

  • Rip

    And I accidentally made a mistake rendering the video. Don’t bother with that
  • Casted!

    Hey, here’s the cast announcement video: https://youtu.be/GCJqL5CHFX8 Because you may not understand what I’m saying. Here’s a transcript: Hey, I’m LegendaryPotatoGuy, and if you want to know why I’m not doing this project myself, this is why. Anyway, I’m here to announce the cast roles for Ocarina. I absolutely loved everyone’s auditions. Thank you so much for Auditioning if you did. Three things before we begin. One, Because of a lack of auditions, we will not be using artists in this project. I’ve already figured out another method. It won’t be as visually interesting, but it works. Especially when you can’t pay artists Secondly, Malon didn’t get any auditions. Kind of understandable, because of such a small role. Because of this, I’m going to be leaving her up to a chorus member when the time comes. Speaking of the chorus, I’ve decided that if you didn’t get a role, but you were still really good, I’d put you in the chorus. Of course, if you don’t want to join the chorus, just say the word, and you won’t be part of it. Also, because of that, we’re ending the video with the chorus announcement not to spoil the casting. So, without further adue, let’s begin. Rauru will be played by Jackmack. Saria will be played by AshK Darunia will be played by KyleRhysMarsh Ruto will be played by Sophie_Gar Impa will be played by Shizuo Nabooru will be played by Muriella Sheik will be played by SapphireRose Navi will be played by Moraiya Now, we’re up to the big three, these roles were without a doubt, the hardest to cast. I even considered doing a callback for them. But, I made my decision. And they will be played by the following. Ganondorf will be played by Gravebear Zelda will be played by Ariana Nicole And Link will be played by The_Conlin And that’s it for the main actors in the show. But what about the Chorus? Well, these Eleven Actors And Actresses in Alphabetical Order are the chorus members Air_ AlexWentzVA Arkham DawningSun Elletrue JustinFava MarcosMolina RealJakob TrevZed UprisingAttorney Spice Thank you for Auditioning if you did. That is indeed the cast of Ocarina and I hope you look forward to it releasing hopefully later this year. So, that’s the cast! I’ll leave a link in the group chat for those directly cast, and I’ll message the people considered for chorus. Thanks so much!
  • Making some Things Clear

    So, I'm using this update to announce some minor changes to the project, and make things clearer. First off the one big change is that the song selection has been increased to 23. I've added an extra song, which as well as being the only Chorus-Exclusive Song in the entire show, also helps make the show slightly easier to understand, as I realized in the original script, some key pieces of lore were missing, and needed their own song. Also, in the near future, I will be getting gold, which as well as allowing me to change my name, will push this casting call to the front page, which means, more people will be aware. And to account for the lesser time some people will have, sometime in the next couple of days, I will be moving the audition deadline to 7th February. And now, to clear one thing up, which is really important. The Scratch Tracks will probably be not very good. Like, it'll give you a rough idea on timing, but if you want more exact stuff like key or emotion, you'll have to come up with that yourself. I can't sing, and I don't know anyone else who can and would be willing to record 23 scratch tracks. So, if you get cast, you'll have a lot of creative freedom regarding how you take the songs, with the scratches only really giving some assistance on timing, and even then, not being perfect. I think that's all I had to say. You're all doing amazing so far. But, don't be afraid to audition if you haven't already. I will not have a finalized cast list until the due date is gone

Hey, you want to draw some stuff for this musical? Great! All you need to do is give us 2-3 images, based on the guidelines below. If need be, I will accept email submissions, shoot me a message if you require this method

Here’s what we’re looking for

1. A background, a place, a setting. The world in which the characters stand in

2. A Human Person. Most of the characters in this show have human proportions, so this will help us judge how you draw most of the characters

3. (Optional) Whatever you want

Now here’s some notes

1. These drawings don’t have to be related to the Legend Of Zelda Franchise

2. If you can, try to keep a consistent style

3. If you use work from other projects you have worked on, some sort of proof this is your work is required.
