Love Live! Cover Group Project
kohxru for Smile First Year
Anyone auditioning for the Smile First Year will be required to be very flexible with their character because the first years have been the most trouble for designing.
To show how much drastic changes there were in our character designing: Fuyue (the current first year cool) was originally a Pure type and Chie (the previous first year smile) was also originally a Pure type! There's no telling if there's going to be more changes in the first years.
Take any first year or second year Smile girl for inspiration because I think the third year Smiles are too mature compared to their underclassmen.
Auditioning for the first year smile will require you to have a young girl voice that would fit a first year girl in highschool. Smiles have a completely different feeling compared to the soothing Pure and striking Cool attributes: They make you feel energised and their smiles uplift your spirits! Auditioning for this role if you have a naturally light voice is recommended.
First years are expected to have a young sounding voice as they are the youngest in our group. We expect auditions from singers around the ages of 13 to 16, however, it's not a strict rule and it should not scare you away from auditioning for this role!
Audition links in case CCC is acting up.
Read the project description and character description before auditioning.
You must sing Bokura no LIVE Kimi to no LIFE *AND* for your second song you must sing a solo from a Smile girl /or/ choose a song from Printemps or CYaRon!. **YOU MAY NOT USE MOU HITORI JA NAI YO FOR YOUR AUDITION!**
The length of the singing does not matter, but singing at least thirty seconds is recommended. Adding extra songs to show off your other range is a good idea too!
Off-track is recommended so we can hear your timing, but it's not required.
Due to many auditions having trouble with voice acting with no lines, I've decided to write up mock-up character lines! Feel free to try any kind of character voice with them and you can change it up however you want. You can even just make your own if you'd like!
The lines were based on the "Love Live! Sunshine!! Hajimemashite!" scripts. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TQ0T2Xs8OYo
We will make official "Hajimemashite!" clips for our introductions of our characters once they are completely designed and approved. If you'd prefer to use a clip you already have of voice acting then you can use that too.
The names and characters are fake were purely made for your voice acting audition, but the personalities were made in the thoughts of each attribute and year! I would like to clarify that this is not your character and that it's just to give you something to work with. I threw in some of the names of the current members to give it a more personal feeling, but the characterisation of the mentioned members might be off, haha. You can do whatever you'd like with the lines!
Yamaguchi (Family name) Tatsu (Given name)
Ramuna High School (High School)
Ai♥doru (School idol group)
EnlightEn (Rival idol group)
Long VA Lines
"Hey there!! Ehehe, um... How was it supposed to go again? I'm sorry, I can't quite get my thoughts in order! I've been waiting so long to record and I'm really really excited!! (Kokoa: You're introducing yourself.) Ahhh~! That's right. I'm Yamaguchi Tatsu, and I'm a first year at Ramuna High school! [Silence] (Fuyue: ...Please continue with the introduction!) What?! I'm supposed to keep going?!!... Well, in that case, I guess I should start by saying that I love everyone in Ai♥doru! I think we make a great team, and I'm certain everyone will go great places with each other's encouragement and lots of dedication. We're still getting the hang of it though! For instance, the time Saki dropped her ice cream all over Fuyue's hair, I swore Fuyue was gonna start swinging punches! And the time Kokoa got a B on that psysics test because we kept her up the previous night for practice, wow! I was sure we were all facing immediate danger when she- (Kokoa: PLEASE FOCUS.) Hehe... Anyway, I think Ai♥doru is going places, and we're all be-e-e-st friends! Come out and support us at our next performance, why don't you? I bet I can count on you to be there~!"

I couldn't help them make up over this... I'm a terrible friend, aren't I? (Sad/Hopeless)
I always put on a happy face for you, and you haven't done a single thing to reciprocate at all lately! (Angry)
Do you think if we're early enough, the shop will pipe all of our faces on the cake we order? Woah, what if they could do it with everyone in their idol costumes...? (Curious/Wistful)
They think we can beat us? Ha!! I'd just like to see them try to outpace this well-oiled-machine of an idol group! (Determined)
Koharu, I think you'd look super cute in this dress~ Try it on for me ple-e-e-e-ase? (Whining)
