open
Deferred: Agreed Amount

A rocket-launcher worthy kid — Gwen is incredibly outgoing, friendly, and, on top of that, absolutely hyperactive; Probably the worst combination a child hiding from the public could possibly have. Loud in her expressions and terrifyingly confident, Gwen very often finds herself in the middle of an unwanted adventure, with a 100% chance of dragging her sister into it as well. Despite all of this, she never means any harm, and, at her age, she follows a rather noble idea — Protecting the small family that means the world to her. 

Requirements & Directives
  • The ability to realistically portray a child's voice without making it unnecessarily squeaky or overacted. We are looking for an immersive approach to the animation's voice acting, which also means being able to perform very emotionally heavy scenes, including screaming and crying.

  • Gwen's voice is very expressive, matching many of her lines, and should be able to easily convey the full range of emotions she may experience. At times, her voice also has a tendency to crack slightly. You can listen to a voice claim here: https://drive.google.com/drive/u/4/folders/1nKd5cWD0QCxdbe9ahFheutLXUd90hcZY (We are NOT looking for a 1:1 match or for someone to replicate the claim. The link is provided to give you a better idea of the character vision we have in mind. Your voice doesn’t need to sound similar; Focus mainly on the attitude).

  • Upon auditioning, please include following information: Your age; Your DEMO reel(preferably); Timezone you’re in; A way to contact you outside of the CCC; Your social platforms, if any; Any notes that you would like us to read through.

The sides they read from:
  • But that’s dumb! Why can they do that and I can’t!? What, am I, quote-unquote, “too young”? [The opening lines are loud and frustrated, gradually shifting into a deliberately drawn-out, mocking delivery. On “quote-unquote” and “too young,” she imitates someone else’s words with exaggeratedly low pitch and a deliberately pathetic, teasing tone]

  • Well, I like ’em. I think they’re funny. [Casual, conversational delivery, with a small laugh on “I think they’re funny”. Natural and understated]

  • NOO! Ah-Dang it! Now why would you do that, Gwyneth!? That thing was perfectly fine! Tsk… No way… [A mix of genuine surprise and disappointment. The opening is an immediate, emotional reaction, then her frustration settles into quiet, dissatisfied muttering]
