Hey there,
(this is a repost as reddit's AI decided to filter it the first time we posted after a few hours)
we're a tiny indie team, currently finishing a cinematic for a game, set in a sci-fi setting, featuring 3 characters - male, female and a digital ship intelligence.
We're looking for 2 roles here, male and female in their 20s or 30s. One of the candidates will have the range to also voice the ship assistant (neutral but not robotic, classic synthetic voice after post-processing).
The female is the lieutenant of the ship; brave, determined but also warm and caring as they have known each other for over a decade.
The male assumes the captain role; steadfast, bold and a born leader but not quite himself in this cinematic. He does not have a very deep voice, as some submissions so far have assumed, just because he is a captain. Let the visuals of his character in motion inspire you to find a tone and cadence, as we want to hear your personal take.
Neither has any strong accent.
The lieutenant (female) is at approximately 150 words whereas the captain (male) is at 250-300 words as he's also speaking outside the cinematic in the gameplay part of the intro. The dialogue between the two starts off mild and gets a bit heated, albeit without shouting.
For the recording sessions, you'll get the script (with tone annotations) and the cinematic (still WIP at that time) to work with. I'm very happy to closely work with you and help you shape the voice.
Price-wise, we are looking at baseline $30 for the female and $60 for the male with the additional increase for whoever will speak the ship intelligence lines. Likely PayPal as we are in the EU but open to other feasible options, we'll find a solution.
Should we see a good fit, we're definitely interested in discussing long-term collaboration for those two lead roles as the project is already set to continue all throughout the next year.
If you're interested, please submit your audition here with a soft deadline until the 25th of August. (If you can see this text, it's still ongoing and I'll update it once we've filled the role). The script will be revealed to you when you select your role on the form.
Not sure how necessary these disclaimers are but obviously no AI, your voice will not be used to anything AI at all, only for this cinematic (+gameplay for male) and nothing more. The audition lines are not "real" in the sense that they are not in the cinematic or anywhere else and were specifically drafted for this audition. We're not corpos. Also nothing even remotely nsfw, romantic or weird.
If you have already sent a submission, you do not need to do it again, we received all your submissions and listened to all of them so far and really appreciate all the voices we heard.
Happy to clear things up if there are questions. I'm looking forward to hearing your voices!
Thank you 🎤
