Wilde Life: Ch6 Supporting Characters! (Semi Kinetic Comic Series)

Project Overview

(The video above features our current main and supporting cast)


Round 2 of auditions has begun. I need some voice actors to fill four new roles in the recent chapter!

!!I am running auditions across multiple websites. Here is the actual audition count!!

Zulime: 9
Kevin: 7
Carl: 2
Jay: 3


Overview:

Wilde Life is a supernatural/horror/adventure webcomic by Pascalle Lepas, who has granted me permission to dub it. It is a modern-day story of a writer and journalist named Oscar who left Chicago behind for a fresh start in Oklahoma. Little does he know the house he rented is haunted by the ghost of a 1940’s mathematician, who becomes his room mate. The story follows his adventures in the town of Podunk, which he finds to be a hotbed of supernatural activity. You can find the comic here:

The comic dub will be presented in the style of a comic voice-over video with some kinetic comic elements. Each chapter of the comic will make up one “episode” which will be uploaded to youtube likely on a monthly basis.


OKLAHOMA ACCENT SAMPLE FOR REFERENCE
http://dialectsarchive.com/oklahoma-1


Requirements:

- I ask that all auditionees for Zulime, Carl, and Jay be 18 years or older. People under 18 can audition for Kevin. No exceptions.

 - I recommend against auditioning if sexual themes in a project make you uncomfortable, although they will be watered down and will likely not require any involved acting on your part. Although none of the adult characters here have been involved in such scenes, the comic is still in progress so I can’t confirm whether or not that will change.

 - You must be okay with swearing.

 - The comic contains homosexual relationships. If this bothers you at all, please do not audition. 

 - The comic contains scenes of violence, blood, gore, and body horror (Mostly chapter 5 so far). If this bothers you, it is best not to audition.

 - Condenser mics are preferred, be they USB mics, or mics connected through an external interface. Please no cell phone, headset, or laptop mics. 

 - Please ensure that your recording space isn’t too noisy and doesn’t have a lot of reverb or echo. Subtle ambient noises in the background can be edited out, but noise removal can only do so much. (In the end, if you’re still unsure how your space sounds, just send in your audition anyways. No harm in trying!)

- Please don't add any effects to your audition (echo, reverb, etc.)

 - If you are cast, please provide your easiest method of contact (ie skype or discord) and/or an email address. 

 - This project will be ongoing for several months, as the comic is not yet complete. Once chapter 6 is complete, it will be a matter of waiting for the next chapter to be finished. Please avoid auditioning if you do not think you can commit in the long term. I will do my best to make sure your recording schedule is not a burden. 


The deadline for auditions is the end of March 31st. (There will be some wiggle room due to differences in time zones, so don’t worry, but please try to submit your auditions before the deadline.) Best of luck to everyone and thanks for taking an interest in the project!

Supporting Character

Age: Possibly 30’s.

Lines: Around 17 lines so far.

Accent: Unspecified (American is fine)

Voice: Medium to Medium-low



“A mysterious witch behind the recent rougarou attacks in Podunk. She performs at and runs a local circus act called ‘Phantasmagoria’.”



  • The closest reference I can find for her voice is something similar to Helba from the .hack// series. I’m flexible about the voice though. As long as you feel the voice you use fits her character and appearance, feel free to send something in.


  • I imagine her voice sounding smooth and calming, and she speaks with an elegant but also arrogant tone. She’s able to conceal her presence and manipulate people’s perceptions, so I’d imagine she’s very self-assured as well.


  • You will need to be able to shout, or at least voice pain sounds. (There’s is a scene in chapter 6 where her shoulder gets dislocated.)


  • When I get to a new place, I like to send the moths out to see if they bring back anyone new. But, I already know you. (Casual tone, admiring her work a little.)

  • We hope you’ve all enjoyed our show… Now, one last trick before you go. (Announcing to her audience.)

  • (Voice some pained sounds and a couple of shouts.)

Age: Unspecified (50’s probably)

Accent: American/Oklahoma (It’s unspecified, but either is fine.)

Voice: Medium-low to low.



“Nora’s Husband, and Clifford’s stepfather. He can be temperamental and argumentative, especially with Clifford, but is more reserved when his wife is around. He has a good relationship with Kevin.”



  • I couldn’t find a proper reference for his voice. Just try and portray the strict father voice type.


  • You will need to be able to shout.


  • Just a heads up. Though it’s never explicitly confirmed in the comic, there’s a lot of theories among the fans, as well as a scene early in chapter 6, that suggests Carl has been physically abusive with Clifford. If this type of content bothers you, then it is best not to audition.


  • CLIFFORD! (Shout this angrily/irritatedly)

  • Don’t be smart- come here. What was your chore today? Stop making excuses. You need to start taking responsibility! (Aggressive, scolding.)

  • I’m sorry, Nor. He’s so disrespectful to me. (Sound a bit apologetic. Calmer tone.)

Supporting Character

Age: 12 years old.
Lines: Around 10 lines so far.

Accent: American/Oklahoma (We’re using American accents for his mom and brother, so American may be preferred. You can audition with both accents if you want!)

Voice: Medium-high to high.



“Clifford’s adopted younger brother. Kevin is close with his brother and the two share a playful brotherly relationship. They like to tease each other and horse around.”


I don’t have any very specific references that come to mind. Basically just try and sound like a 12 year old boy.

  • Aw, you killed me! Why do you always win? It’s not fair. (Complaining that his brother beat him at a video game.)

  • Head-lock! I win! *laugh/giggle a bit* (Playful tone, horsing around with his brother.)

  • You know, if you just did what you’re supposed to, dad wouldn’t get mad at you all the time. (Concerned.)

Supporting Character

Age: Unspecified. Around his 40’s probably.

Accent: American/Oklahoma (It’s unspecified, but either is fine.)

Voice: Medium to medium-low.


“The local police chief with a good heart. He was a single father for a while, but is currently married, and has a teenaged daughter. He’s only appeared briefly so far, but will likely get some more screen-time later.”


  • I imagine him sounding a bit like Mr. Smiley from Steven Universe, but a bit more mellow. It’s not a strict guideline, so as long as you feel the voice you use fits his character, feel free to send it in!


  • I can’t say for sure whether or not he’ll end up in any sort of violent situations. (When he’s introduced, he references running a search party for some missing hunters who disappeared due to supernatural circumstances.) Be prepared to shout or voice pain sounds just in case.



  • Nora, I understand how you feel, but you know how this looks. He DOES this. He’s probably hiding out at a friend’s house. (Friendly, and reassuring.)

  • Listen, we’ve already got all our guys searching for those hunters who went missing last weekend. I’ll have them be on the lookout for your boy. (A bit more serious and down-to-business tone.)
