Tocagroot Entertainment: Sonic & Tails Squad (PHASE 2)
Project Overview
Hello! This is Tocagroot Entertainment. Following the success of Phase 1, we are officially expanding the "Sonic and Tails Squad!" This squad is the core of the channel’s new direction.
The main crew is locked in, and now it is time to bring in the heavy hitters for Phase 2. We are building a massive universe, and we need the right voices to make it happen.
VERY IMPORTANT - PLEASE READ:Long-Term Commitment: This is NOT a one-time gig. I am looking for dedicated voice actors who are willing to stick around "forever" as we grow the channel and become popular. You become the official voice of this character for the brand.
NO DISCORD LINKS: We will not be using Discord. You must use Google Drive for your lines.
Versatility: We do variety content (tier lists, reacting to fanart, gaming, etc.). You need to be able to stay in character while improvising or having casual conversations.
We are now casting for the following characters to join the squad:
Team Chaotix: We are casting Espio the Chameleon.
Vector the Crocodile: This role is now OPEN for auditions! (Show me your best take, otherwise, I may get someone else.)
The Rest of Team Dark: We are looking for Rouge the Bat and E-123 Omega to join Shadow.
Cream the Rabbit: Joining the squad to add some wholesome (or chaotic) energy!
Silver the Hedgehog: The future is here--Silver is officially joining the Phase 2 cast.
If you don't see your character yet, don't worry! This channel is going to be huge. Stick around for future updates.
MORE RULES - PLEASE READ:1. Audio Quality
Good Microphone Required: You don’t need a $1,000 setup, but no headset mics or phone recordings. We need clear, professional-grade audio.
No Background Noise: Ensure your recording space is quiet (no fans, traffic, or static).
No Effects: Submit RAW audio only. No reverb or pitch shifting.
2. Long-Term Commitment Required Again We need reliable actors who can record regularly for Tier Lists, Gaming, and skits. Please do not audition if you cannot commit to being an active part of the team for the long haul.
3. Good Attitude
No Toxicity: We are building a fun, positive community. Drama or rudeness will result in immediate removal.
Have Fun!: We are making content to entertain people and become popular. Bring your energy!
4. Audition Format
Provide multiple takes (AAABBBCCC format preferred).
Leave 3–5 seconds of silence at the beginning for a "room tone" check.
5. Google Drive (read before auditioning.)
You will have to record your lines on any app! But, since I don't use Discord. You will send your lines through Google Drive, and once you're done with your lines you will send them to me in the chat.
Good luck to everyone auditioning! Let’s make history!

Vocal Range: Mid-to-High Soprano / Bright, Energetic Alto.
Archetype: The Compassionate Leader / The Relentless Optimist / The Hammer-Wielding Heroine.
The PerformanceWe are looking for a performance in the vein of Cindy Robinson (Sonic Boom/Modern), Lisa Ortiz (Sonic X/Dark Era), or Shannon Chan-Kent (Sonic Prime). You should capture Amy’s transition from a bubbly, "Sonic-obsessed" girl to a capable team leader. We are also looking for someone at least 12+ to voice act for her.

Audio Quality: Ensure recordings are free of background noise, peaking (especially during Amy’s louder/excited lines), or excessive room reverb.
This character will sing occasionally. If you are comfortable singing in character, please include a short sample! If you cannot sing in the character's voice, don't worry. You will not be replaced for the acting role; we will simply use a singing double for those specific segments.

I can just tell we’re going to have a fantastic time together!
Sonic! Look! I stayed up all night--and used three different shades of blue--to make these friendship bracelets for you! See?
You think these robots are tough? Stand back, boys--I’ll take it from here!
Vocal Range: Mid-to-High Tenor / Youthful & Earnest.
Archetype: The Determined Time-Traveler / Naive Hero / Idealist.
We are looking for a performance in the vein of.. well, any Silver voice actor. You are free to do Bryce Papenbrook (New Generations/Currently Modern Games/Team Sonic Racing), Quinton Flynn (Old Generations/Sonic Forces), or Pete Capella (Dark Age/Sonic 06'), but you are also free to do your own thing. But if I had to specifically choose one, it'd be Pete Capella. We are looking for someone who can capture his youthful energy and occasional social awkwardness. You have to be at least 14+ to get the role.| UPDATE: IF you want to mimic previous official voice actors, here's the links to the LISTED voice actors.- Pete Capella: https://youtu.be/dNU101DKshU?si=TK8_Ftx1vbvHboc5 | Bryce Papenbrook: https://youtu.be/0of2dx6eMJU?si=DXc8Erk3TR8DF7-F| Quinton Flynn: https://youtu.be/E0KExUqDrQ8?si=f3-Kb24n0wonrwDn | :)
REMEMBER:
- Whether he is frustrated, hopeful, or confused, the emotion should feel genuine and unpolished. He is not as "cool and edgy" as Shadow or carefree like Sonic; he is a kid trying his best.
- Silver often goes from quiet contemplation to high-energy shouts ("It's no use!", "Take this!"). Ensure you can transition between these without losing the character's core "voice."
- Do not "squeeze" the throat to hit his higher tenor range. Use a bright, forward resonance (mask voice) to keep the tone youthful without causing vocal strain or raspiness.
- Ensure recordings are free of background noise, peaking, or excessive room reverb for professional consideration.
(EXTRA: I also need to note that this cast will sing sometimes, not alot but sometimes. If you can't sing in the characters voice, it's fine, we'll look for someone else. You're not getting replaced, it's just your singing voice will, not the voice acting part.)

I came back in time to stop you, but honestly, seeing you trip over your feet is almost enough of a punishment. Well...Almost. (Savagely Deadpan/Teasing/Sarcastic)

You’re the 'Ultimate Life Form'? Great! Can you 'ultimately' pay for these headphones you broke? (Fake Niceness to Mocking/Sarcastic)
Look, kid, I’m gonna tell you this because I like you: stop trying to be 'edgy' like Shadow. Just smile! (Affectionate/Warm/ Slightly Teasing))

- Avoid "Edginess" for the sake of it: While Espio is serious, he shouldn't sound like he’s trying too hard to be "dark." Aim for focused calm rather than aggressive brooding. He often speaks softly. Ensure your recording remains clear and audible even when whispered or spoken under the breath.

I’m a chameleon. I can blend into any environment. Except this one. This environment is too stupid to blend into. (Deadpan)
Charmy asked me why I don't use a phone. I told him the wind speaks to me. The wind usually tells me that someone left the fridge door open, but it is a noble connection nonetheless. (Stoic to Amused| Deadpan/Whimsical)

Look at all those ships! I wonder if we could take one.
Hey Shadow! I gotta ask you somethin'. Vector told me that he wants me to find five top secret disks. But like, what's a top secret disk?
That was very scary, but being with you makes it all better! Yeah!! Hey, you look different.

- Blaze is royalty. Her speech should be precise, articulated, and controlled. She rarely shouts unless in the heat of battle; she "commands" the room with her presence.
- Blaze is famously guarded. Her voice should sound somewhat "distanced" or "stiff" initially, as she struggles with social interaction. As she warms up, a subtle warmth can enter her tone.
- When she uses her fire powers, her voice shouldn't sound chaotic. It should sound like focused energy. Think of a "simmering" heat rather than an uncontrolled explosion.
- Blaze has a lower, firmer resonance. Try to aim for that without tensing your throat. Avoid a "gravelly" sound; she should remain smooth and elegant.
- Ensure recordings are free of background noise, peaking, or excessive room reverb for professional consideration.

The duty of a Princess is never finished. *weary sigh* But if I have to save the world one more time today, I am going to require a very large cup of tea and silence. (Sophisticated)
If you stand in the way of the Sol Emeralds, I will not hesitate to fight you. (Sharp/Formidable/Uncompromising)
W- Why do you celebrate the day you were born by putting fire on top of a cake and then blowing it out? It feels like a threat to my people. (Stiff/Socially Awkward/Confused)

- Cream is incredibly well-mannered. Even when she is upset or in battle, she rarely loses her soft, respectful tone. She should sound like she’s always saying "please" and "thank you" with her voice.
- Her voice should be light and airy.
- While her pitch is high, avoid making her sound "shrill" or "piercing." It should be a gentle, pleasant high-pitch that is easy on the ears.
- Do not "squeeze" the back of your throat to sound small. Use high head-voice resonance and keep your jaw relaxed to maintain that "sweet" quality without straining.
- Ensure recordings are free of background noise, peaking, or excessive room reverb for professional consideration.

I hope your day is as nice as you are..! Wait... that was actually a mean thing to say, wasn't it? (Polite and Sunny to Soft but Horrified Realization)
Mr. Shadow, do you need a hug? You look like you haven't had a hug in fifty years. (Innocent)
Mr. Eggman, please don't cry! Cheese didn't mean to break your favorite toys... he just thought it was a piñata! (Oblivious/Innocent)
- She rarely sounds flustered. Even in danger, her voice remains smooth, melodic, and slightly "heavy" with confidence.
- Please don't make her sound like an average "cartoon villain." She is a spy; her voice is her greatest tool for manipulation. Keep it grounded and "cool."
- Do not "fry" your vocal cords to get that raspy or low sound.
- Ensure recordings are free of background noise, peaking, or excessive room reverb for professional consideration.

Knuckles, always so serious about his rocks. Doesn't he know the best view is from above? (Playfully Dismissive)
Catch me if you can. But you probably can't!~ (Teasing/Mockful)
Aww, look at the little genius and his big brain. You’re adorable, Tails, but don’t try to hack me. (Condescendingly Affectionate)
- Vocal Range: Bass-to-Low Baritone (Heavy and distorted).
- Archetype: The Walking Arsenal / Vengeful Powerhouse / Loyal but Blunt Soldier.
We are looking for a performance in the vein of Jon St. John (Sonic Heroes), or basically any E-123 Omega voice actor! (AS LONG AS IT ISN'T THE SONIC 06 ONE..). You must be at least 16-17+ to get the role. | UPDATE: IF you want to mimic previous official voice actors, here's the links to the LISTED voice actors. - Jon St. John: https://youtu.be/wwcUrx6775w?si=rx_UmYFQiC7apOm- | Roger Craig Smith: https://youtu.be/c5nVeMRe0MQ?si=GP26YPLekq60mfCY | | Vic Mignogna: https://youtu.be/8ySush8JEAg?si=0KtiUbSlykexjmDN | Jeff Kramer: https://youtu.be/zge-5XVTTQo?si=w1uXBPMsOwt4De81 | :)
- The voice should be monotonous yet aggressive.
- Think "cold logic meets hot-blooded rage." Omega is arrogant about his superiority over other machines and focuses entirely on destroying Eggman.
Omega’s voice is naturally deep and mechanical. Do not "growl" or force a gravelly tone from your throat, as this can lead to vocal strain. YOU WILL ADD THE "robotic" texture post-production through filters. Focus on a clear, resonant, and consistent delivery.
Ensure all recordings are free of background noise, audio peaking, or excessive room reverb for professional consideration.
Please note that you will have to put an effect on his voice and make it sound like the filter Omega actually has.

Blue Hedgehog, your speed is impressive, but you are made of meat. (Hyper-Aggressive/Deadpan Robotic)
I do not have feelings. I have missiles. If you are unhappy, it is likely because I am currently pointing a laser at your forehead. (Analytical/Unintentionally Hilarious)
Dr. Eggman is a failure. His robots are scrap. I am the ultimate upgrade, I am the most superior. (Dismissive/Annoyed/Self-Entitled)
