Youjo Shenki: Mini Anime [Fan-Dub]
Project Overview
About the project:
This project is the not the official English Dub series, this is purely a fan series for fun and without payment or funds to do so. None of these roles will offer payment of any kind.
Youjo Shenki: Mini Anime is a side -series of Youjo Senki produced by Studio PuYUKAI. This mini-series features all of the characters in a chibi form and stories not important relating to the main plot. In short, there are no spoilers that will spoil the series to those who are wanting to get into The Saya of Tanya the Evil.
This is one of my first projects, so in addition, there will be roles for editors, music and audio editors along with voice actors. One rule put forward, if a voice actor gets the role you auditioned for please remain professional, do not attack them. This has happened many times before I understand. Please lend support and in the future, this kindness can be paid forward. This project will be posted on media websites like YouTube, Tumblr, etc. Please be aware of this. All voice actors if chosen will have their Youtube Channel or links added to our descriptions.
Requirements for Voice Actors:
- When auditioning please make sure you are able to use a proper microphone. There can be no background noise, although some are alright we are hoping to restrict as much background noise as possible. Earphones and phone speakers are NOT allowed.
- Please have proper editing software for your audio. The software doesn't need to fancy, audacity will work for this as well. This is for cutting and noise reduction. Although our editors can do that, please help the workload
- When submitting please record three takes of each line. We'd like to hear different tones, voices, and unique vocal techniques. If your file ends up being too big please email them to me at [redacted].
- Note: Although making different voices is fun, we are hoping the voice actor can carry the acting aspect. Please make sure you able to carry the emotions of each character.
- Please note your microphone, software, or other things we should be aware of when you submit your audtion.
Requirements for Editors or Engineers:
- Please have proper editing software. Even if this your first project we would like to have editors with software to make the needs of this project. Video clipping, audio edits, submitting/uploading videos without a watermark from certain video software.
- Audio editors must follow the same guidelines, please have proper editing software and techniques.
Rules for this Project:
- Professionalism: Please remain as professional as you can. Although making friends and mingling is to be expected, a drama is the last thing we need in our project. This can be from having another actor who received a role and lashing out. This is an example.
- Confidentiality: As a director and past voice-over talent, it's understood many voice actors choose to keep their discords, skype, etc usernames under lock and key. Please respect that and do not release usernames, emails, or possible aliases of others who are working on this project.
- Have fun: Remember to have lots of laughs, fun, and enjoy yourself!

Although I'm more than willing to write the script myself, I'd like to have a writer alongside me with offering a second view. Ideally, the writer needs to follow the original material, however, also offer feedback to the voice actors in a professional manner about their lines, takes, and revisions.
- Must be able to write in proper or readable English. [This will make the voice-actors job a lot easier. Although slip-ups are allowed, please make sure it's not an all the time occurrence. ]
- The writer needs to be able to send and write the script in a "stage play" or scripted format. It's preferred the documents are sent in the form of a PDF to avoid editing of the script. Someone who has a basic understanding of Microsoft Word, however, can also use it, is noted as an asset.
