Hello BIM!
I am a German Brick- Animator. I made my new Film for the German-Brickfilm-festival. I make the film in english and german. I need 3 voices:
Two Children and a man(25-45 years old)
Can you help me? ( I send you the text via message)
Best wishes,
Markus
I really hate to be the one telling you this but someone has to. For an effective casting call, you should provide a description of each character. Two children and a man is not a very good description. Also, you should have people send you test lines so that you can judge their voices. You should have people send you their test lines to either your email or by Personal Message with a link to the audio file. Lastly, a picture of each character usually makes your casting call much more effective. Just some advice that really helped us, not a critisism at all 
Now, with that being sadi, I would be interested in trying out for one of the children. If you would be so kind as to explain how we audition, I will gladdly an send audition Thanks!

Child 2

Dear Markus,
BIM is the wrong place for searching voiceactors, especially if you are german and especially if you are not so often in this community. If your name is Smeagol, Keshen, Littlebrick, Lechnology - it would be a lot easyer.
Search for Harry Bossert, he can help you, or Jargon. If you need a female voice, search for Brick7, she´s brilliant in voiceacting.
Other wise its better to search on YouTube for voiceactors. Search for geertos13 on YT.
BIM is more the "I need" or "giv me" - community, instead the "what can I do for you?" community. They only moan and lament if they didn´t understand the german language. They don´t care about thaht from where you get the voice-actors.
Worst of all for them is still, if you have accent in the voices from our german voice actors, because you tryed to find someone who can speak english, but our actors are not able to sepak nativ english. So do not even bother, make subtitles. Belive me, I learned a lot out of searching voice-actors
Good luck for you!
I sent you a private message. I'm sorry I did not notice this thread before, but if your film is family-friendly I would be happy to do the children's voices. PM the lines to me, and let me know where to send them.
(And thank you, Mario, for the compliment! )
Hello!
Thank you Mario and Brick7. Mario and me we wrote the last time E-mails about voice acting. So I make a version with subtitels. Many user by Yt asked me, if i can make a English version. My English is very bad. Now, i don´t need voices (thank you brick7!):) Ich know only the Brickboard comunity. All user help the other user. I thought that are a "help comunity" too.
But I am not a great Brickfilmer like Mario, Golego, Keshen8...
I can understan you if you will not speak for a unknown Brickfilmer. In the Brickboard.de the user know me.
Thank you!
Markus
I can voice for you. PM me in youtube (Xwingfighter999).
