Wild Westly Pilot

Project Overview

Wild Westly is a show that follows the story of Weevil, a small gang of insect cowboys that call the Old West their home. This alternate history adult-oriented series will star Wylie Westly and his gang as they follow the orders of Mayor Colt Papillo, taking out other gangs and clearing a path through the slowly deteriorating West under his command.

Though, don't expect it to remain this way, because something is... off about this place.

Hi, I'm Winston, the creator of this project! Thank you for showing interest and reading far down enough to see this message. If you are interested in supporting Wild Westly but you do not/cannot apply to any roles, then please follow me on twitter/tiktok @topazanimation where I post updates about my progress on the animatic/animation for the episode, along side sneak peaks at characters that would be showing up later in the series! Hope you enjoy!

NOTES


  • Applicants must be 18+, this is an adult-oriented show, and even if it wasn't, I do not feel comfortable hiring anyone that is not of age.


  • I am hoping to make this a long-term project, and if funding is achieved for this project then I intend to raise the pay of my artists, VAs, and other project workers.


  • Some of the more technical roles are listed as deferred. This is not true, they are simply roles that I am unfamiliar with and would prefer the input of individuals for how to pay you fairly.

Latest Updates

  • Lots of thanks!

    Hi! We're officially 25 days away from the end of submissions for Wild Westly. I wanted to thank everyone that has submitted so far, and we look forward to seeing any submissions that follow!

    .

    Just a few quick updates!

    1. The WW crew (myself and 3 cowriters) will be checking submissions each Friday leading up till the deadline of the 24th. If you have sent a submission either here or via email, don't worry, I can assure you that we have received it. We will be choosing our cast by the end of May, so if you don't hear back from us I apologise!

    2. Some people may not receive roles for our pilot, but there are some VAs that we have our eyes on to potentially get in touch with for characters appearing in later episodes! As I have said before, there will always be opportunities for people to get a role in Wild Westly!

    3. We have (hopefully) managed to obtain some funding! There will be an upcoming listing within the next few months calling for a lot more of the technical roles, such as animators, storyboard/animatic artists, colourists, musicians, audio mixers, and the such!

    .

    That's all for now, and thank you for an incredible first 10 days of our project! Feel free to send more VA and artist auditions either here or to my email, we're always happy to see new talent!

Dominic “Don” Hercule is a large, gruff older man, and is Westly’s impulse control.

Wendy Fantôme
open
Paid: Flat Rate 50 USD

Wendy Fantôme is an easily irritable and harsh-speaking woman, and is the gang’s sniper and strategist. Wendy typically speaks in a tone of disgust, whether it be mocking or genuine, and often acts stand-offish towards the people around her. She speaks without hesitation and doesn't mince her words or lower her tone. Despite this, she does have the potential to be soft spoken, but only when addressing characters she cares about (Hercule, Westly). Character age is estimated at mid to late 20s. French accent, preferably looking for someone that can speak french but is not a necessity. This character is transgender (mtf), but being trans is not a requirement to apply for this role.

Argus Silksong
open
Paid: Flat Rate 37 USD

Argus Silksong is the leader of the main gang that rivals Westly, called The Ladies in Waiting. We're looking for someone with a real strong voice for this important villain! Argus is a stoic older woman, bitter and forward. She speaks harshly to most people, even those that she cares for, and has a near obsession with convincing Elliot to join her gang. She has a clear distaste for men as a whole. Character age is estimated from late 50s to early 60s. Nigerian Accent, looking for Nigerian/African VA. Also happy for the following, as the accent of this character is inspired by the countries her moth (Eudaemonia argus) can be found in: Gabon, Ivory Coast, Togo, Guinea, Benin.

Kathryn Diddler

Paid: Flat Rate 31 USD

Kathryn Diddler is a gruff, deeper-voiced woman who acts as Argus' second in command. While Argus controls the gang, it is Kathryn who controls the people. She is the one to step up and give orders when Argus isn't present or passes the role onto her. Kathryn has a strong voice and carries herself as a commanding figure that should not be trifled with. Even when speaking softly she has a natural grit to her voice. The character's age is estimated around mid 30s. Southern American accent, this character is a member of the LGBT.

Deferred: Agreed Amount

Looking for a background artist with some level of familiarity working on backgrounds for animation. Backgrounds are already sketched out in detail in the storyboard, requiring line refinement and colouring. I would love to see portfolios and examples of your work! The backgrounds are Old West themed, so someone with experience or passion for this era and the details/colours associated with it is key! Ideally I am looking for a textured style to the colouring, similar to this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jZgG4CvcZso but would happily accept a different style if it is appealing and I believe it works for the show!


This listing is for an internal background artist, someone who is happy to work on backgrounds that are the insides of houses and vehicles, such as train carriages, bedrooms, saloons, etc.


I am unsure how to go about payment for this role as there are a lot of backgrounds to work on, but also, the majority of backgrounds are already at the lineart stage, so I will have to discuss commission prices further with individuals who apply!
