Well it looks like we have the first script ready to go! I was a bit worried for a moment! XD

GreatKitsune · Post by **GreatKitsune** » Thu Jul 09, 2015 7:32 am

Thanks, HI! Now I'll send it to the voice cast so recording and editing can start.

EDIT: I left messages on the involved actors' CastingCall profiles.

Oh I'm sure that it will come out just fine just as long as it is done.

Nice job, HI.

MrNeonShot · Post by **MrNeonShot** » Mon Jul 13, 2015 7:53 pm

I can't wait to start! I think I've got the scenes in mind from what was described, so I'm so excited!

GreatKitsune · Post by **GreatKitsune** » Wed Jul 15, 2015 12:23 pm

I've added a few new parts to the Casting Call project, fixed some typos, and added tonal guidelines to some ongoing parts.

Submitted my audition for Max!

I'm only worried it's too quiet.

SuperStar · Post by **SuperStar** » Wed Jul 15, 2015 8:25 pm

I'm gonna need to record my auditions soon as possible.

GameCobra · Post by **GameCobra** » Thu Jul 16, 2015 10:34 am

Hey, guys. i temporarily removed my audition, sadly. I appreciate the votes, but I was certain last night i could've performed Maxwell alot better than that.

I got my laptop fixed last night and a good spot to beg like a sad cat trying to impress his girlfriend =P

I'll reaudition tonight

Amazee Dayzee · Post by **Amazee Dayzee** » Thu Jul 16, 2015 2:41 pm

Well get it up as soon as possible and we'll see what people think!

GameCobra · Post by **GameCobra** » Thu Jul 16, 2015 9:23 pm

All done! Just don't have your headset up for the last part. It's loud. X3

Thu Jul 16, 2015 10:47 pm

I'll record some more auditions, probably Monday. but I'll only post them if I can make them sound convincingly different from my Marvin since I already got that role.

Amazee Dayzee · Post by **Amazee Dayzee** » Thu Jul 16, 2015 11:01 pm

When I read the comic, I tend to have Tiger and Marvin sound the same anyway though not because I think they are. I don't have many voices I can use in my head.

I actually have the same scenario with Max and Bino. Hence, why i also wanna voice the both of them. :3

Amazee Dayzee · Post by **Amazee Dayzee** » Fri Jul 17, 2015 1:36 pm

I think of Bino's voice as a more aggressive voice of Max's. Now I think of Joey as Jaleel White's Urkel.

Czukay · Post by **Czukay** » Fri Jul 17, 2015 2:13 pm

I guess that since I got a part, I won't record anymore auditions except for King, because some people thought I would sound good as him...

CHAOKOCartoons · Post by **CHAOKOCartoons** » Fri Jul 17, 2015 4:22 pm

Submitted my audition for Pete, Fido, and Max. Had a lot of fun with Pete and Max's lines.

Gotta say though, Fido had a pretty odd selection of example lines. I feel like I coulda done better with more or different lines but it's cool.

Amazee Dayzee · Post by **Amazee Dayzee** » Fri Jul 17, 2015 9:11 pm

Well Cxukay, I believe that you can audition for as many roles you want and can get more than one.

CHAOKOCartoons · Post by **CHAOKOCartoons** » Fri Jul 17, 2015 11:16 pm

You should always try out for multiple roles because you never know what people might think is good in, plus it's just plain fun to do voice acting.

Well... I guess I'll audition for some more characters then... Why not

SuperStar · Post by **SuperStar** » Sat Jul 18, 2015 8:01 am

How long do you recon until Max's voting starts? I want to know how much time I have to get a recording done.

Amazee Dayzee · Post by **Amazee Dayzee** » Sat Jul 18, 2015 3:08 pm

Well people are suggesting that Bino should go next because he was the second dog introduced in the comic.

Sat Jul 18, 2015 11:27 pm

recorded auditions for Max and Fido (would have tried for Pete but one of the auditions already submitted is much better suited for him than anything I could do)

personally I think my Max was the better of the two. also, I would have used this strip as one of the audition lines

Amazee Dayzee · Post by **Amazee Dayzee** » Sun Jul 19, 2015 2:12 am

That would have been a very good strip to use since it has drama and comedy in it.

GameCobra · Post by **GameCobra** » Sun Jul 19, 2015 7:27 am

I have to agree as well. Bino had a lot of good audition choices. Maxwell's audition choices were a bit meh with the exception of the last one.

EDIT: And this one :3

SuperStar · Post by **SuperStar** » Sun Jul 19, 2015 7:36 am

Is it possible to change the lines? Cause all those seem a lot better.

Amazee Dayzee · Post by **Amazee Dayzee** » Sun Jul 19, 2015 1:29 pm

I think that the final say would be with GK because he was the one that set it up.

Though if you don't like his decision, you can always trap him in a jello Pokeball.

Sun Jul 19, 2015 11:38 pm

or just record those lines at the end of your submissions

And then we get fired for insubordination!

... but then again, it helps us showcase our talents :3

That wouldn't be a problem. The number of lines you record won't affect the likelihood of your getting the part, but if you feel the example lines aren't enough feel free to record any extra lines.

SuperStar · Post by **SuperStar** » Mon Jul 20, 2015 10:10 am

I uploaded my audition for Max, I may do a re-take later. Let me know what you guys think!

BTW, would it be cheating to alter my recording of Pete's laugh? Because, you know, he's meant to have some otherworldy vibe to his voice when his text bubble changes black.

Amazee Dayzee · Post by **Amazee Dayzee** » Mon Jul 20, 2015 2:56 pm

Alter it how? With your voice or with a program?

Post by **Obbl** » Mon Jul 20, 2015 3:21 pm

Do the laugh with just your voice. We want to see your natural capabilities. You're being brought on as voice actor not a sound engineer. That'll be someone else's job

GameCobra · Post by **GameCobra** » Mon Jul 20, 2015 8:59 pm

If that's the case, i plan on reauditioning this weekend. :3

I may re-record my max now. maybe Wednesday or Thursday

CHAOKOCartoons · Post by **CHAOKOCartoons** » Tue Jul 21, 2015 4:54 pm

Submitted the extra lines that were recommended by Brent. I also recorded the lines recommended by Cobra, but I'm not sure if I should post it because then I would have 3 submissions for Max's voice.

MrNeonShot · Post by **MrNeonShot** » Tue Jul 21, 2015 9:49 pm

Hey guys.
I'm 17 now, and my dad's in his 50's. I don't have a job or a drivers license, and my dad has been working a full job and a part time job to cover 4 kids.
So, I need to start applying my time to start helping out with bills and stuff (as a personal choice). This means that I'm most likely not going to have time to work on this project. Sorry, I know I was the only animator who was going to help, but I just don't think I have the time to work on this anymore. Especially if I was going to be the only artist and animator.

I'll help in whatever way I can, but I'm just going to have to drop out of the project now.
I wish you luck on your future endeavors on this project and I hope you find a replacement animator soon.

SuperStar · Post by **SuperStar** » Tue Jul 21, 2015 10:00 pm

Well then, hope everything goes okay for you and your family, take care.

CHAOKOCartoons · Post by **CHAOKOCartoons** » Tue Jul 21, 2015 10:04 pm

Sorry to hear that man, sounds super rough. It's understandable, and super kind of you to take up that responsibility for your family.

Hope it goes well for you.

EDIT: Know what, I don't wanna see this project fall. If ya can't do it right now buddy, I'll fill in for ya! I can take a brake on some game projects for a bit and work on animating. You're making some sacrifices, it's only fair that I should too. Maybe one day you'll be able to start animating for the project again

. So if it's okay with you and the others, I'd like to fill in for Neon, at least until he has the time to come back (if he can).
