Winter VN Jam Entry

Winter VN Jam Entry

Project Overview

BECOME A VOICE ACTOR IN A VISUAL NOVEL FOR WINTER VISUAL NOVEL JAM 2023! 


The main genres are: Romance and Fantasy, with some Horror elements. See “General Info” for more info on the game itself, as well as information about our team and our past experience. Our itch.io pages are linked there.


IMPORTANT INFORMATION.


Actors will fully voice the dialogue present in the game.  The full game will be approximately 6,500 words (split up between the three main characters.) to give an idea of length.


Actors are expected to join the project discord, where live (Voice Chat) direction will be given.  


Actors MUST be active on Discord and comfortable on voice call (provide username in the audition) and be willing to discuss deadlines for lines, and meeting time(s) for live direction.  As the end of the Jam is December 31st, communication is of utmost importance.


TO AUDITION, you MUST have 2-3 takes with varied delivery (ex. "On my homeplanet..." vs "On my homeplanet...", or trying out a different emotion with each take).  Some examples for how to say the lines are given in parenthesis, with different ideas for delivery marked by a "/".  Feel free to try out your own interpretations as well, however. 


*****The Deadline for Auditions is Friday, December 15 at 12am EST.*****


WE ARE LOOKING FOR TALENTED, DEDICATED VOICE ACTORS WITH A GOOD WORK ETHIC.


Have good mic quality.  We'd like it to sound as professional as possible. USB or XLR mics are both acceptable, as long as we can hear you clearly.  Experience with noise reduction is a major plus.


Communicate with us.  This project won't get done in time if we don't have clear communication.  The Jam ends on December 31st, so deadlines will be tight, but not unreasonable.  Being comfortable talking with us in VC is extremely important to ensure this.


If this goes well, we'd love to collaborate on bonus features for the game after the Jam!


We think this is a great opportunity to help aspiring voice actors get their foot in the door with a little experience, plus something they can put in their portfolios.  We can't wait to hear what you have to offer! 


If you have a demo reel, feel free to link it in your submission as well. (NOT REQUIRED, BUT ENCOURAGED).


Feel free to contact us through DMs if you have any questions!

Latest Updates

  • Thank you Everyone for Auditioning!

    Hello everyone! We wanted to take a moment to thank all of you for taking the time to audition for our project. We've begun the casting process, and will choose our official Liev and Narrator very soon!

    It will not be an easy decision, however. There are quite a few of you who we'll be keeping our eye on for future games, for sure.

    We encourage you all to audition for our projects in the future!

    We also saw some familiar faces from our Alien Inc Casting Call, and we just wanted to say helloo! We see you, and appreciate you.

    Have a great morning/afternoon/evening, everyone!

Project Roles: Liev Narrator

Voice Actor
Liev
closed
Unpaid
Role assigned to: Tyler

A monster-hunter whose weapon of choice is chosen by the player. Experienced and tough, Liev is strictly concerned with results. He’s traveled through harsh conditions and has lived his life on the road. Although kind and caring in his youth, Liev has become callous to all, including his lover.

Within the cave, Liev’s personality completely changes. He becomes soft-spoken and kind. In reality, it is because this is only an illusion of Liev; a doppelganger has taken his form. When the doppelganger’s true form is revealed, it becomes desperate and malicious.

  • (Gruff/frustrated) At least the wind is dying down. Alluding to the end of this damn storm, hopefully.

  • (Adoringly/Darkly) You’re still so cold. I apologize for not getting to you sooner. But I am here now, and I won’t leave your side.

  • (Desperate/Angry) Wait! Why would you ever leave?! It’s perfect here…! I made it perfect, here!

Role assigned to: MurphySays

The disembodied narrator of the game. They are not involved in the game’s world. They should speak clearly and eloquently, like reading aloud a fantasy storybook.

  • Yet as time and rust strains even the most expertly forged craft, so too do relationships bend and creak with the waxing and waning of the moon.

  • When was the last time this nostalgic scent encapsulated you so? Four, five years now… Back when love was gentle and smiles were as plentiful as apples in an orchard.

  • The sensation hits you. It is an unnerving cold so overwhelming, it becomes hot. The torrent is ebullient and hungry. It floods through any opening it can, rushing towards your brain. Hooking into your skin with invisible barbs, infecting your veins, and spilling into your lungs… It means to cling to your being.
