ripple Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 Auditions are closed. Thanks to all who auditioned. ======================================= Casting Call: Awake: The Rise of Mannimarco ======================================= 'Awake: The Rise of Mannimarco' is a collective project involving a group of experienced Skyrim PC modders who have produced and published their own projects in the past (Apollodown, Eckss, Ironman5000, mysticentity, PrivateEye, just to name a few). It is a story-driven, character-focused, DLC-size quest mod for Skyrim PC, centered around the return of an ancient and well known antagonist in the Elder Scrolls series. We are looking for a number of voice actors to fill various roles in the mod, including the role of Mannimarco himself. The workload is extensive (50+ lines of dialogue for some roles), but with a reasonable turnaround time of 3 weeks (that you must be able to meet). Good quality sound recording is a - must -. The closing date for the casting call is August 1, 2014. If you are interested in auditioning for a role, please record the sample dialogue lines for that role, and upload it to a sound streaming site (like SoundCloud) or free file-sharing site and PM me the links. Please keep in mind that for the 'final product', the sound files must be in WAV format, mono, 44100 Hz. ====== Roles ====== = Bounty Hunter = Voice Type: Red Guard Female, young. Self-reliant, witty and sarcastic. Sample Dialogue: 1) Well, there goes the stealthy approach. (Sarcastic) It’s ok, I’m an archer, we -never- have to use stealth anyway... 2) (Warning) Are you really sure that’s where you want to go? 3) (Joking) I forgot what a dog in heat looks like... = Mercenary = Voice Type: Nord Male, mid-30's. Gruff, brash and boisterous. Sample Dialogue: 1) Sure, looks cozy. Got that whole, 'Everybody’s dead' setup going. 2) Besides, half those words don’t make any gods damned sense. 3) By Talos, you girls need to grow a pair. (Yell) Hey you! Come out! I just want to you ask you a question! = Soldier = Voice type: Female, mature. Disciplined, formal, and slightly arrogant. Sample Dialogue: 1) After we get some rest, sir, the troops and I are prepared to go through every crypt if necessary. We’ll find the bastard, sir, it’s only a matter of time. 2) You’d think they would have figured it out by now. They get up, we put em back down... 3) (Protest) The Thalmor were charging! I had to send the phalanx forward, we - had - to fight them! = Apprentice = Voice type: Breton Male, early 20's. Shy, nervous, fidgety, intellectual. Sample Dialogue: 1) We should never have done this. I fear that what we started....should never have begun. 2) (Terrified) I can’t wait! I can’t wait! We have to go! We have to go or we’re all going to die! 3) Somebody come quickly! It was him! It was Mannimarco! = Mannimarco = Voice type: Male (You can be a bit creative here, and submit a voice type that best fits your idea of what an ancient, powerful, and immortal necromancer/lich sounds like, including modulating your accents, voice and/or adding 'effects' using sound software). Sample Dialogue: 1) Simply lay down your arms, and you will be at peace. I can bring you all the answers you seek. 2) Citizens of Skyrim! I bid you humble greeting. I am Mannimarco, the King of Worms, and I have arisen again to bring you a gift. 3) You have come quite far and I admire your perseverance. Perhaps you will be more useful to me than I had thought...

Apollodown Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 VAs should also record themselves singing John Lennon's "Imagine" backwards through a watermelon. There's not a reason for it, I'm just curious what that would sound like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tx12001 Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 (edited) Shouldn't the one who voices the King of Worms try to make him sound like the Mannimarco from ESO, I hope you can join him in it as so few mods have a path where you can join the cool "Bad guy" and tell the lame "good Guys" to Beat it.

Kylo1992 Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 (edited) Been doing a few free voice acting things on other sites, why not throw myself in with skyrim mods?! Nord male https://soundcloud.com/kylo-laburne-lam/nordic Mannimarco https://soundcloud.com/kylo-laburne-lam/mannimarco and I can hit a range of voices so if you would like anything REALLY specific see here: and here: http://orias1992.newgrounds.com/audio/ Just to get an idea for my range of voices. Edit: Not using the headset to record like in the video, I have a semi decent condenser mic and edit the audio in Audacity.

We have to go! We have to go or we’re all going to die! 2) We should never have done this. I fear that what we started....should never have begun. 3) Somebody come quickly! It was him!
