VARMINT - Animated Pilot | Casting Call
Project Overview
After hosting the first casting call here on CCC in late 2021, the final call is now here, where this project is in need of one last character, and a few other creative roles.
To apply for any role in this project, you must be 18 or older.
Discord is mandatory, as that is where the team's server is, as well as preferably Microsoft Teams for backup (optional)
Provide your discord tag below. If you wish to keep this private then that is also totally fine, please make sure to keep active on CCC so I can request this via dm instead.
This project is entirely volunteer, and there is no expected payment. Please only apply for this is you are 100%
on board to join an unpaid project. We aim to startup crowdfunding through Kickstarter when the trailer releases, but this is not a guarantee for payment, so please do not expect anything.
This project is part-time for team members, as your health will always be put first
This is a remote passion project.
Long-Term Project
Varmint is an independent project created by me, Sylo/Silas. Created in 2020, this project is worked on at animation school, and at home. It will be nearly impossible without a collaborative team aiding in the project.
The setting is located in the Arizona, Grand Canyon
Realistically, when will the pilot be released? Q4 of 2026 - Q1 of 2027
What is the creator and team working on now? A promotional trailer for the pilot
I always check and go over every audition and application! Even just applying to this project is very much appreciated
Will be contacting people chosen on the 31st of October

Cyril is an antagonist in varmint, and holds a significant importance in the pilot episode. Cyril is rude and simply just not a nice guy. He, like everyone else, has his own problems, but will only lash out at others because of this.

Not everyone wears what they are worth, some prefer not to wear anything at all. Stay away from those ones

The story is very heavy in its themes, and should be reflected in its music, as well as character themes.
