Added an extra role
Just a quick update to point towards the new role of the officer who drives Lee to the prison before crashing into a walker
Wave 3 casting for this lil' fandub of Telltale's The Walking Dead; this time being Herschel & Shawn Greene, Chet, and Katjaa (due to no one auditioning for her during the first casting call for this project)
Herschel, Shawn, and Chet are all the shortest roles of Season 1 for the most part (maybe with the exception of Beatrice in Episode 3) with Katjaa being in Episodes 1, 2, and 3; however you can feel free to audition for a future role for Episodes 2-5 once casting calls are made for other characters
REQUIREMENTS (there's not a lot, I promise)
1. Discord is a must for contact purposes (I've setup a small project server to keep stuff like voice lines and the google drive all in one place for convenience)
2. If you audition for the role of Lilly, and are cast for said roles then please only audition if you're open to potentially reprise the role if I were to continue this project to the point of her return in Season 4 :]
3. If/when the character you audition for dies (or disappears from/leaves the story), you can then audition for another role as long as you're able to give a distinct enough voice to differentiate characters (think Owen Thomas for in-game Omid to in-game Troy), no guarantees on being casted for more than one role, but it could still be possible!
4. Be 18 or older, it's The Walking Dead so it should go without saying, but after Wave 1, I feel like it's just a rule that has to be said rather than assumed
And finally, number 5. Please don't send a random friend request on Discord, if you've been cast then I'll send the server invite in the CCC chat for those who have been casted, but sending me a random friend request prior to being cast will likely get you blocked there and your audition dismissed
Just a quick update to point towards the new role of the officer who drives Lee to the prison before crashing into a walker
The first cameo role of Season 1 Episode 1 (that shows up before Glenn Rhee in the 2nd half of the same episode)
Seeing as how the Telltale set the game series in the comic universe; feel free to reinvent an original voice for "comic" Herschel OR try your hand at doing a Scott Wilson impression, either will be fine for an audition (maybe even trying both if you really want too)
Line context #1: Herschel not taking his son's and Lee's warnings about the walkers seriously, almost completely dismissive of the threat and more placating Shawn's worries
Line context #2: Herschel raking a pile of hay, making conversation with Lee in a light hearted scene of banter, moments before tragedy strikes
Line Context #3: Herschel, full of rage, snaps at Lee and Kenny over saving Duck while letting Shawn die without doing anything to try and save him from getting chowed down on by walkers

NOTE; this project won't have written scripts, instead you'll be expected to voice the characters based on the in-game subtitles of pre-recorded videos that your voice lines will be edited over, HOWEVER, if absolutely needed, I can write down your lines so you can memorize them outside the video (Written lines will solely be lines, watching the video will still be required for context and knowing how to voice the lines to make it easier to time your lines to the lipsyncing of the characters)
Reference video of Herschel's lines (starts at 19:15 of the video)

Well, do what you think you should. We've got plenty of chores as it is.
Heh, had you told me twenty years ago I'd still be doing this, I woulda told you that you were full of crap.
SORRY?! You're son is alive. You don't GET to be sorry! (*Turns towards Lee*) And YOU. You didn't even try to help.
Herschel Greene's son, main role in the story is saving Lee and Clementine from being stranded in the latter's neighborhood, taking them to Herschel's farm before being the first choice of two people Lee has to save
Seeing as how Shawn doesn't have an AMC counterpart to optionally do an impression of like Herschel, you can either look up a voice reference of him on YouTube or come up with your own take on how Shawn should sound based on his in-game appearance
Line Context #1: First meeting Lee and Clementine, relieved from initial panic of thinking Lee and Clementine were walkers sneaking up on him and Chet
Line Context #2: Telling his father (Herschel) what Lee tells him around the first line's scene of Lee being Clem's neighbor as opposed to being her father
Line Context #3: Panickily begging Lee and Kenny for help, his leg pinned by the tractor that Kenny's son was playing with while watching Shawn reinforce the gate around the farm as two walkers reach over a weak part of the gate to try and get a bite out of him.

Phew, thought for a second you and the little one were BOTH going to give us the chomp.
Oh, not his daughter, he was her neighbor.
GET THIS TRACTOR OFF OF ME!
Smallest role in Season 1 Episode 1, being introduced trying to clear the way for Shawn's truck as Lee and Clem find them before leaving to head home upon reaching Herschel's farm
Like Shawn, there is no AMC counterpart to Chet, so feel free to either look up a voice reference of in-game Chet or come up with an original voice for Chet (preferably keeping his semi-heavy southern accent, though not required)
Line Context #1: Failing to push a wrecked car with Shawn, complaining along with Shawn about their situation of being trapped in Clementine's neighborhood
Line Context #2: Hopping out of the bed of Shawn's truck, stretching as he parts way and heads home from Herschel's before disappearing from the series
Line Context #3: [No Line 3, only really two lines that seem long enough to be audition lines]

I ain't never gettin' home to mama at this rate.
Hey, Shawn... I'm a' run on home. My mama's gonna be in a snit.
The officer first seen with Lee at the start of Episode 1, looking for someone who can do a (light) southern accent
Not really a lot of info to give for this role, his role extends to literally just driving Lee in a police cruiser before crashing the car and being devoured by walkers
Line Context #1: Attempt to break the ice of a quiet and tense car ride to the prison he's driving Lee too
Line Context #2: Telling Lee his final story before the car crash, easter egg line to the original Walking Dead comics
Line Context #3: Line #2 continued after Lee's response to said line

Y'know, I've driven a buncha' fellas down to this prison. Lord knows how many. Usually is 'bout now II get the "I didn't do it."
I'm driving this man once, h-he was the worst one. He wouldn't stop going on about how he didn't do it. He was an older fella. Big, soft eyes behind a pair of smart folk glasses, and he's just wailing back there, says it wasn't him.
Innocent?! They caught the fucker red handed! Stabbin' his wife, cutting her up as the boys came through the door! He sits in my car and screaming bloody murder that it wasn't him! Think he actually believed it himself
I don't really know much about Katjaa apart from her being a caring mother and (narratively) growing distant from Kenny due to the apocalypse, so this is a role that I'm kind of relying on the walking dead wiki for those who need/want to read up about her
https://walkingdead.fandom.com/wiki/Katjaa_(Telltale)
Line Context #1: Pleading with Larry to not throw Duck outside the Everett family drug store, hurriedly cleaning Duck of walker guts trying to prove there's no bite mark on her son (Episode 1)
Line Context #2: After the St. John's ring a bell to signify dinner is ready, Katjaa gets Kenny to go inside and leave Lee to find the St. John's secret barn backroom (Episode 2)
Line Context #3: Grieving the soon-to-be loss of Duck, as her son is close to death after being bitten by a walker hours earlier; trying to ground Kenny in the reality of Duck needing to be put down (Episode 3)

No! I'm cleaning him up, there's no bite!
Kenny? Come along, honey. Kenny, c'mon, don't make the children wait.
Kenny, I love you very much. I love our son more than life itself... I need you to hear me. What you are saying, that he may not turn, is foolish.
