Hello again
After the massive success of my latest video (attached at the top) i am here to start another casting call!
What is this?
A project for a video that will be uploaded to my YouTube channel
It is a voiced skit parody of UmaMusume: Pretty Derby
here's a link to the channel this will be hosted on: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC9WMMwzUs1abbIIthdyPbgw/?sub_confirmation=1
Requirements?
There is no experience requirement, i put more value in your ability to emote and the quality of your voice
Effort and talent are wasted if you have an awful setup with much background noise, make sure your audio quality is the best it could possibly be before you audition
You are also not expected to know anything about umamusume, however some knowledge about the series would be helpful, which i'd happily provide if you get the role
The one thing i ask is for good availability, to make sure that you are able to deliver the lines in a timely manner and be ready for any re-recordings i ask of you
How should i perform?
I have attached voice references for most characters, despite this i don't expect or need you to match their voices exactly
While being able to match the voices i ask for is ideal, it should not hinder your ability to act
If you can match the mannerisms or "vibe" of a character that'll be good enough
As this is a comedy skit and not a fandub, i put more stock in your ability to express emotion and make a line sound funnier than it actually is, so, give it your all!
Audition format?
Record in any format you like
Read the lines as given, then feel free to give your own take on a character and do not be afraid to improvise and show off your personality
You can record as many takes as you like, go wild
Additional characters?/Background roles?
Depending on how the script goes there may be some additional roles such as Royce and Royce, Meisho Doto, Team Capella's trainer, and a random bartender
Minor characters such as that will be cast through people who auditioned for other characters, so please, audition for as many characters as you can!
Disclaimer
Don't audition if you're under 18
Leave your discord name on the audition
Deadline has been extended
The roles of Minamizaka, Matikanetannhauser, and Twin Turbo are now closed for submission, they will be cast soon
The roles of Nice Nature and Ikuno Dictus are still open as they both double for Meisho Doto and Royce and Royce respectively, so we are still looking for further submissions on those
The role of Hana Tojo is still open for audition
Nothing i could say about this character matters
just give me your best Bayonetta impression
If you need to learn how to talk to a lady, ask your mum (Freestyle some others lines if you'd like)
(Condescending) *I* for one take our role as mentors very seriously. Isn’t that what we are after all, educators?
(Encouraging) Straighten up! You’re an embarrassment to the rest of us otherwise
(Auditioning for this role doubles as an audition to be cast as Royce and Royce)
A member of team Canopus. Personification of a nerd emoji, she should always sound smarter than she actually is

(intellectual) Please trust in the method, trainer, such things are always absolute
(Confident, almost smug) Oh dear, trainer, I assess that you've found yourself in quite the predicament. Thankfully yours truly has already thought up of a solution!
(A little silly, almost giggling) By my calculations Friends + Party = Fun!
(Auditioning for this role doubles as an audition to be cast as Meisho Doto)
A member of team Canopus, generally lacks self confidence but has a good heart and tries her best despite her pessimistic views
Go for a medium pitch and try to match the mannerisms most importantly

(Laid-back, straightforward) Really? What would ever give you that idea, we're just a bunch of jobbers!
(Caught off-guard, blushing) Ahh, right right! i'll get to it immediately!
(Genuine, warm) Trainer, whatever it is that you're doing, i'll be right there with you
A member of team Canopus. Hyperactive, childish, and lacks functioning braincells
High pitched, always refers to herself in third person
Try to speak quicker than average when reading your lines, show some energy

(Energetic) Turbo's my name, and speed's my game!
(Defensive) Turbo swears she only lost because it didn't kick in that time! Watch this, TUUURBOOOO BOOOOOOST!
(Confused) Bwuh?
A member of team Canopus, has a very positive attitude and child-like demeanor
try to get the vibe down best you can, she has a very particular way of speaking

(Excited) We can do it this time! i know absolutely for sure we're gonna do it, i can feel it!
(Confusion turning into determination) I don't really know what that's all about... but count me in!
(Freestyle and give me different takes, you'll be saying this word a lot) Mambo!
The meek and spineless trainer of Canopus, usually letting his trainees walk all over him, causing their under-performance.
In this skit he will undergo a downward mental spiral and psychological torture
It does not matter how he sounds like as long as he fits the give vibes of your average twink; Meek, Desperate, Hostile
(Sheepish and soft-spoken, laughing awkwardly) ahaha I mean, I-i suppose so but- um... wouldn't it be nice if you did it my way, for once...? (end the line laughing awkwardly again)
(Desperate and on the verge of a breakdown) C-come on man, i need this! I'm broke, I'm depressed, m-my wife's openly cheating on me with another man, and my kids don't even *think* about me anymore!
(Violent and aggressive, talking to a crowd) EVERYBODY HANDS UP WHERE I CAN SEE 'EM (beat) STOP CRYING YOU STUPID BITCH
