I need collaborators to help me make a dub of this a reality. Their Story is a cute, unique, relatable, ongoing romance manhua about Sun Jing and her relationship with a girl from a neighbouring high school, Qiu Tong.
I'll be slightly Westernising the translation, so the dialogue is slightly different from what you may see when reading the comic.
For the slots with extras or non-recurring characters, I will cast multiple people as necessary. You will be PMed with casting news if you auditioned for an extra and I have selected you.
Rules
Must have a pretty clear-sounding mic without pops or background noise
Must be able to commit to the project. It should be pretty lax, but if a tighter schedule arises, you must be able to keep up
After auditioning, comment your Skype username and/or email or other means of contact.
Be genuine! This work may be manhua, but it has quite the natural feel to it. Remember, the second part of voice acting is in fact ACTING
Teachers and Old(er) Women
Will cast like an extra, so whoever is picked will be considered for multiple parts.
Voice range: Mid-Low
(authoritative teacher) Don't snap your umbrella in peoples' faces, Miss Qiu Tong. |
(stern nurse) Alright, alright! Everyone except the patient needs to leave my office, now! |
Unnamed currently
Qiu Tong's friend that attends her same high school. She seems to really be protective of Qiu Tong.
Voice: Mid-High
(annoyed) What a dumbass. |
(pensive) That girl yesterday seemed a little off... |
(asking a favour from Qiu Tong) Hey, let's make an extra stop past the station after school. I wanna buy something. |
Unnamed atm
A classmate of Qi Fang and Sun Jing's. Total stickler for the rules and tattletale.
Will cast like an extra, so whoever is picked will be considered for multiple parts.
Voice: "Nerdy" Mid range
(telling on Sun Jing and Qi Fang) Sir, I think they're playing the seaweed game outside. |
(telling on Sun Jing and Qi Fang, a little more annoyed) Sir, they're socializing out there! |
(determined) The flag...must never get wet! |
Extra audtion slot for the adult male extras of the comic
Voice: Low-Mid range.
(stern teacher) All of you, get out. |
(convenience store clerk) That'll be 16.80 |
Small role, but still necessary! Will be cast as an Extra as needed.
Voice range: Mid-Low, kind and friendly tone
(greeting) Qi Fang, Sun Jing. You guys still haven't left? |
(curious) That's odd. Doesn't someone usually pick you up, Sun Jing? |
Sun Jing's best friend and fellow troublemaker.
Voice: Male mid-range, a vocal fry would be cool if you can do that
(matter-of-fact answer) She got dumped by a girl. |
(teasing) What's the matter, Sun Jing? Your heart got broken this early in the morning? |
(nonchalant, yet observant) He's suffering a little emotional trauma. |
Unnamed female extra
Will cast like an extra, so whoever is picked will be considered for multiple parts.
Voice range: Mid-High
(excited) Are you two free on Saturday night? |
(flirty, then concerned) That cute guy over there is drenched. Poor thing. |
(informative) Her name is Qiu Tong. Second year, 3rd Class at South High. She's pretty famous there, but doesn't have a whole lot of friends so it'll be hard to get her out there. |
Fellow troublemaker acquaintance of Qi Fang and Sun Jing. A bit of a pervert, yet somewhat shy. Arguably attracted to guys?
Voice: Mid-Low
(concerned) What's up with Sun Jing? She seems so lifeless. |
(friendly) Need an umbrella? An upperclassman gave it to me for my birthday. Though, I'd honestly rather not remember getting it. |
(trying to motivate himself internally) You're a grown man! You can't just snap so easily! |
Recurring unnamed character
Has feelings for Qin Xiong. Strong and silent type
Voice: Low range
(greeting, then concern) Qin Xiong, you haven't left yet? |
(protective, intimidating) I asked you what class are you from? Didn't you hear me? |
(badly lying to stay in the nurse's office) ...my neighbour's cat died. |
Has questionable feelings for Sun Jing, but seems to deny it.
Currently unnamed
Voice range: Mid-High, leaning on High, register.
(concerned) I guess you're not able to use your right hand today. Do you need me to help you take notes? |
(flustered) It's not like that! |
Sun Jing's crush and later girlfriend, Qiu Tong is cute, feminine, and kind.
Voice range: High-Mid, with a girly air
(relieved) You didn't need to make it so complicated if you just wanted to be my friend! I thought you were going to mug me! |
(flustered, to Sun Jing) You're very important to me! |
(reminiscing) When I was little, I would always play basketball with my dad. I never took the game seriously. He'd try to teach me all the rules and I would just bounce the ball back and forth. Then, I grew up, and he didn't have time to play anymore. I regret not trying harder. |
