Due to poor planning of my fault, I am not allowed to continue working on this. Sorry to everyone whose time I've wasted. [Note: due to lack of interest, I have outsourced active recruitment for voice actors to another website.] As you probably already know, this is a request for voice actors for a fan radio-show style serialisation I am hoping to do for El Goonish Shive. The idea is that there would be a voice track with all the characters' voices on top of a video with the corresponding comic panels. If you want a proof of concept—or just an example of what it would look like—I have made videos for comics 1 and 4 (There was no voice actor for Sarah; can you imagine someone who has a baritone voice trying to speak like a girl?). These videos are by no means the final versions. For one, the voice of Tedd is my 10-year-old brother. I don't think any more is to be said on that. Also, the audio hasn't been processed properly, so that would need to be fixed as well. I also plan to put something like a series of the comic strips together to make at least a 5 minute long video. This project requires voices for—well—everyone in the comic. I am not exactly the most sociable person, and this isn't exactly the most mainstream comic either. So can you imagine me going round my school trying to round up voice actors? That would only end well in a dream. So this is why I am calling upon you, the Bunnies (does Dan still call us that?) of El Goonish Shive, who already know (and probably like; why else would you read it?) the weirdness of EGS. If you would like to take part in this, there are a few requirements: The first is that you are willing to stay committed to the project. It would not helpful if you drop out mid-arc. The second is that you must have a voice that at least sounds like how the character would sound like if they were real (i.e. male sounding voice for males, female sounding voice for females, if you're voicing Greg that your voice doesn't sound like you are 10 years old). The third is that you have a quiet room or area in which to record in. I can easily get rid of static noise; I can't get rid of stray voices. There are some other things which would be ideal, such as a good quality mic and good voice-acting talent, etc. But if I managed to make the videos above with essentially a £0 budget, then it can't be that hard to work something out. Roles: Introductions: Elliot [open] Tedd [open] Sarah [open] Dr. Germahn [open] Amanda [open] The Goo Elliot [open] Tedd [open] Sarah [open] Random Teacher(s) [open] Narrator/Announcer [open] Principal Verrückt [open] Shade, Part 1 Elliot [open] Tedd [open] Sarah [open] Grace [open] Clerk from the Cinema [open] General from 'Attack of the Frozen Waffle' [open] Dr. German from 'Attack of the Frozen Waffle' [open] Tedd's Dad [open] Vlad [open] Hedge [open] Jeremy [open] The Mugger [open] Q&A #1 Dr. Germahn [open] Amanda [open] And that should be all for episode 1. Yeah, it looks like a lot, but a lot of the characters are minor characters and only say one or two lines, so I or some other VA could voice them. If you would like to take part in this project, then leave a reply or send me a PM. Just so that everyone knows, I did not get permission from Dan to make this project. This is purely a fan project and no one will earn any money from it. By doing this I hope to spread the wonder that is EGS, not profit from it.
