Charlie Horse - Animated Pilot
Sol for Sophie Squirrel (Lead)
Sophie Squirrel is Charlie and Douglas’s overly affectionate, nut-obsessed neighbor who never seems to run out of energy—or pastries. She’s endlessly chatty, wildly unpredictable, and more than happy to insert herself into any situation involving her two favorite bachelors. While most neighbors avoid her, Charlie and Douglas have learned to (mostly) tolerate her... and even rely on her more than they’d like to admit.
- High pitch, bright and bubbly, with a musical lilt that can jump to squeaks when excited.
- Retro-American vibe (think vintage sitcom mom); fast-talking but always crystal-clear.
- Improv is highly encouraged—go nuts with it! Sophie’s meant to feel unpredictable and unhinged (in the best way).
- Sudden mood shifts and unexpected vocal choices are welcome—she can go from giggly to dramatic to overly sincere in seconds.
- Pay close attention to the audition lines—brackets indicate tone, actions, or emotional context to guide your delivery.
- What made you want to audition for this series—or this character in particular? We’d love to hear why, either in your audition or in the description!
(cheerful and sing-songy) WHOO'S HUNGRYYY?! I knew you boys needed a pick-me-up, so I whipped up a fresh batch of my world-famous walnut-almond-hazelnut-pecan-macadamia-chestnut-berry-buckwheat-banana muffins!
(overly enthusiastic, mile-a-minute) So! What's the ruckus, boys? I heard a whole lotta roaring and thudding, and I thought, "Mercy me, is someone being eaten up here?" And if they are, I just had to pop by to save the day—or at least bring baked goods to the crime scene. (“Boris... rent... eviction..”) (gasping) Eviction?! Oh, honeybuns, not my darling boys! No, no, no, that won’t do! I simply won't have it! Who else is gonna eat all my baking triumphs?! You know what this calls for? A plan! A Sophie-certified, foolproof, tried-and-true, slightly risky-but-always-has-heart plan!
(proud, commericial-like voice) Behold! Hop to the Top Career Counseling! Only the finest, fastest, most "get-your-life-together" place this side of Urbanopolis! They’ll fix you boys up real quick, yes sirree bob! (flirtatiously at Charlie) Who knows, maybe they’ll just hire you to stand there lookin’ pretty. Giddy up, stallion!
Hi there! I'm a scatter brain and was so excited to audition for this role that I forgot to say WHY I wanted to audition! I'm getting back into Voice Acting after a forced hiatus and I was so excited to find a role where I could bring all the energy I have inside out to the maximum! I love being silly and I'm fantastic at improv, I'd be over the moon if I got to be my fun loving, silly self while bringing life to someone's original character! I used to perform as Pinkie Pie at kids parties and it was so refreshing to be that crazy again for this audition, I'm so excited to see what other characters you add! Good luck on your project and I wish you all the success!!
