Video Series Seeking Voice Actors

[qwerty2jam 0]

Hello all my name is Qwerty2jam,

Myself and some comrades are beginning a DayZ video series. This series encompasses many characters in several stories of varying natures. This project requires a large amount of varying voices and preferably some experienced voice actors to bring extra depth and quality to the series.

This post is put up as a call to arms for anyone that wishes to voice act a character. Spots are limited but more will open up as the series progresses, if you are interested in trying out for available character please PM me. Please not that you will NOT necessarily get the role you want, we are looking for the best voices to suit the characters and trying out does not confirm you a spot.

The script for the first episode is here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1WZiyZwljp6aSTq8xZLi-d68UrnNDA5WpoBzwJL2KLEU/edit?pli=1#heading=h.88xjxpvjewis

The available characters are Theodore, Alex and Rob.

Hoping to uncover some great talent and am looking forward to bringing this series to the community.

Regards,

Qwerty2jam

What is the shopping list? Is that equipment required for recording of the video, that needs to be gathered in DayZ? Else i don´t see what it could do. Also how much time requirement would it require a week?

The shopping list was just formed as a general list of items we will need for this and future shoots. The actual recording we would aim to have done in a couple of hours tops.

Sounds like a heck of a lot of fun. I might just have to try out for a role, but highly unlikely I'll get anything considering the fact that English is not my native language, though I am fluent.

It may help you to learn how scripts are written, it makes the dialogue easier to read.

You start by setting the location and the time of day. Then you write a brief action that a character does in this scene, but don't put everything in the action text. The framing of the scene and the way the individual characters act is up to the Director.

Then you tab in, > > > > and in caps write the NAME and then in normal case the dialogue they are speaking

INT - Interior location

EXT - Exteror location

INT - BARN - DAY - Scene 4

Andy passes some NV goggles to Dave

>>tab>>> ANDY "Here you go man, Take these."

>>tab>>> DAVE "Thanks. At least I don't have to keep using that annoying flashlight."

With these scenes in chunks, it will be easier to make a storyboard and then film each scene for editing. You can also film out of sequence, as long as you know which number order the scenes go in you can put it back together.

I can provide my English/media studies experience and I can do various voices if you need them.
