VOICE ACTING CONTEST (YES, FOR A BIT OF MONEY) FOR A LITTLE YOUTUBE GOBLIN (SEE DETAILS)
Project Overview
Are you a voice actor and/or a singer who wants to win a (small amount of) money? Do you want to be the face of my entire YouTube channel as a small blue goblin? Do you want merch and a server role, if you’re into that?
Hello! My name is Max, alternatively known as Blewby or BlewbyBoy on social media and I’m (unfortunately) the creator of Tartan the goblin. So, who is Tartan? According to viewers of mine his lore is as follows (and I wish I could make this up):
On a warm and sunny March evening, gentle whimpers could be heard from the echoing corner of an Arby’s dumpster. Little did anybody know that this would be Tartan. Standing at about a foot tall, this mischievous goblin has blue rubbery yet silky skin, almost being the texture of sand in a balloon, which can be molded like Play-Doh. He has a long conular nose which drags on the floor in most artistic depictions of him. Some have even been led to believe that he was best friends with the God Fenriir but they aren’t allowed to play together anymore because his father, Gort, says that the 6 foot druid is a “bad influence.” His favorite food is dinosaur chicken nuggets and rice balls, but if he ever threatens to eat your cabbages then get ready to starve in the upcoming crop harvest. Tartan is the cousin of the kitchen goblin and a sock goblin.
Now that you’ve read that, you probably think this is all a big misunderstanding or a joke, but I promise you, it isn’t. Trust me.
The only flaw in this character in my grey shiny eyes is the fact that I never considered what this thing would ever sound like. And honestly, why would I have?
Recently I have been wanting to collaborate with a creator and close friend on YouTube by the name of STINKWEED. The plan to have Tartan rapping or singing part, and if you can’t sing and want to audition, even just talking in the backtrack or being a hype man is better than nothing. In addition to this, I will be personally paying you commission to create about 10 samples, script provided. If you are chosen as one of the top five, I’ll get in touch about payment negotiations for those. Even though I curse and don’t mind if you do it conversationally, in this project there will be zero profanity in the collaboration or the samples.
To prove to you that I’m being for real, watch the video. If you don’t, here’s the scoop for the three winners which I totally didn’t forget to mention:
- THIRD PLACE: $10 USD
- SECOND PLACE: $15 USD + FREE PIECE OF ARTWORK
- FIRST PLACE: $25 USD, A MERCH TEE, THE COMMISSION OFFER (IF INTERESTED) + FREE PIECE OF ARTWORK
I’m sorry the prizes couldn’t be bigger, but as you already know – we’re artists. We’re broke.
The style of the song that will be sung will be somewhat of a “meme,” more like a sh*tpost, in these styles:
If you would like any of the instrumentals to try to reproduce one of these songs, you can contact me at my business email or my Discord server. Here is also a direct link to the Discord event.
NOTE: THIS ENDS SEPTEMBER 30TH, 2022!!!
When you audition, leave your Discord handle [NAME#0000] AND/OR your email so that I can get in touch with you!
Voice Actor
Everything is pretty much in the description. What do you think this little fella would sound like during the trumpet fight, which was the only thing I could think of in the moment? (Make sure you try to have different dynamics.)
[YOU CAN INTRODUCE YOURSELF IF YOU WANT TO, OR YOU CAN HOP RIGHT IN
[SPEAKING AUDITION: TRUMPET FIGHT (CENSORED). I don't just want you to mimic the trumpet fight guy, and if it's what you envision, then go for it! I want something creative that you can bring to the table. The document has different stage directions and the correct script formatting as well, it's linked in the description. If you need accommodations like color coding or such, feel free to contact me!]
Who the heck do you think you are? You’re any kind of artist? Anybody know who you are? Maybe everybody else wants to enjoy the peace and quiet. This is one of the most important places in North America and who are you? Who are you? You miserable, presumptuous no-talent. You’re no artist. An artist respects the silence, it serves the foundation of creativity. You obviously don’t have the talent. You don’t have enough respect for yourself or other people, or know what it means to respect yourself. In music or any form of creativity. And I’m an NYU film school graduate. Sucker. And the School of Visual Art in the Academy of Art University in San Francisco. You suck. You’re a no-talent. If you really have talent, go practice. And then get yourself a gig, instead of ruining the day for everybody down here. You disgrace. You are everything that’s gone wrong in this world. You’re a self consumed, no-talent, mediocre piece of trash. And I’ve earned my right to say it. Okay? In 1975, I walked Bob Dylan up on stage. Who are you? I knew the Grateful Dead from 1966. Who are you? You’re nothing. You are nothing. And you will never be anything. Never. How dare you? You miserable, mediocre nothing. Shame on you. You crack a stupid little smile, you little pimp. Go learn to play. You’re flat. You can’t even carry a note. I don’t care about your little horn lip, it doesn’t mean you know how to play. You’re flat. I’ve trained classically, I’ve trained contemporaneously, and you suck.
