Topic: Casting Call: La Conquista (CLOSED)
I've got a one-page-script animation that I'm going to be making in the next couple of weeks called La Conquista, and I need a few voices for it. It's about a conquistador and some vikings who both 'discover' the same island. BTW this is going to be part of the BFCU. I'm afraid I can't post pictures of the characters because I haven't built any of them yet, though that is something I plan to do today.
The Conquistador
Taken by Jared Nesbit
He has an air of nobility, despite not being the most successful explorer, and so speaks with nobility. If you can do a Spanish accent then brilliant, or give one your best go, as that's really the only major requirement. The only other suggestion is that he should be quite regular in pitch - not too high, not too low - so that he's distinguishable from the vikings.
King Eirik
Taken by Arginnon/Kristóf Fekete-Kovács
It's pronounced EY-rick (thank you, SurfSmurf778). He's the king of the band of vikings that discover the island, and he's just about fed up of the Spanish taking the credit for his discoveries.
Needs to be quite a masculine voice, like a stereotypical viking. If accented, Scottish would be nice, but otherwise please keep to an English accent.
Viking 5
Taken by JohnDthunDer
This viking doesn't have a name, and he only has one line. He should sound a bit higher pitched than the other vikings, and once again a Scottish accent is preferred but optional.
Chief Cherufe
Taken by me
I don't want to say much about who this guy actually is, but his voice should be low, and maybe have some sort of speech impediment. Kind of like a friendly but dumb troll, if that makes any sense (remember the trolls that tried to eat the dwarves in The Hobbit?).
If you want to audition, PM me so I can send you my email address (i'd rather not leave in an open thread for all to see). Since this is all for the BFCU, I may ask you if you can do some more lines for these characters in the future, mainly the Conquistador and Chief Cherufe.
Thanks guys, and I look forward to hearing your auditions!
