Casting Call for Otto & Bradley in Something Fishy: An Animated Short from Third Year Sheridan Students
bigbecks for Bradley
Our character Bradley the dog is our Supporting Lead role and requires someone that sounds calm, collected, and kind of bored. He is the one that pieces together the clues and figures out that the vegan protesters must be behind the crime, and he does genuinely care about Otto, even if he doesn't always show it. He goes through an opposite arc to Otto, starting off confident and collected, and over the course of the film getting more and more excited. We want our film to feel like a cartoon pilot, so any sort of pitch of voice is accepted - Our references for the look of the film are Wonder over Yonder, Powerpuff Girls, Amazing World of Gumball, Star Vs. The Forces of Evil, etc. and they can also be references for how we expect the energy for voice acting.
"I don't get paid enough for this." Bradley bored, uninterested, acting as comedic relief to Otto getting interrogated by Police
"Kale? Who in the world eats kale.... THE VEGANS!" Bradley realizes with a start who is actually responsible for the robbery. He starts off still bored, but THE VEGANS should be emphasized. Almost as a 'AHA' moment.
"AHH! THEY'RE GETTING AWAY!" Scared, worried. Bradley does not like skateboarding. He is terrified in this moment, and goes through an opposite arc that Otto goes through.
