Rent one?

Yeah, I seen this too. I might do it ^_^ But what I don't get is that you have to send a video tape. Why can't I just send them a cd? Why do they want to see your face for a voiceover contest anyway? lol Well, I guess the general public wouldn't have a pc mic and everything like us AVAs heh.

Now I've just gotta see if I can sound like a 40-year-old for Iron Man/Stark, and I'm all set. I'll just use one of the school's cameras, or maybe rent one.

I'd try it, but...

Yeah, but I can't act. And I know nothing about any thing by Marvel. I could buy a webcam...I saw a good one for $30...

(Funny, because I want to be a voice actor and a movie star...)

There's really only one character I can audition for ~ I could try for the Black Widow.... ^^; But mostly just Wasp. Good luck! <3

And thanks, Azure, for the link =3

Although when I first saw this, I thought it was a great oppertunity for breaking into the business, I now have to admit that the whole setup of the audition strongly suggests more of a search to get people to do embarassing things on tape a la American Idol, then to find 'the right voice.' I still might do it, if I think I can sound convincing enough as one of the characters, but I'll be making sure that what I record will be hard to make a "Keith" out of. I suggest anyone else who tries it do the same.

Yeah, I was talking to one of the people invovled in this, and it sounded like it was an actual voice search thing. Lucien, m'dear, you really should try out for it.

Yeah, I'll give this a shot, simply for the fact that as long as I show a certain level of aptitude, it would be hard for them to make me look stupid. At the very best, I might turn some heads of those in charge. You never know.

They might well use this for something like a 'Haha! Look at all the nerds pretending to be X-men, don't they suck!?' So be careful if you wanna audition.
Meh, I'm not in their country and I have totally the wrong voice type for this kind of thing.

I think it's a risk you take, I guess to route to go is to do it an in incredibly cool way rather than making a lameass cosplay.

Lucien please post it here if you do enter ;3

According to the rules it looks like you can only audition for one character 0.0

heh-I actually recorded an audition for Wasp ^^; I don't know if I'll send it in though.

lol Even though I don't have a whole lot of time to just do v/acting as a hobby anymore, I'm so tempted to try for Black Widow... just for kicks. :P A Marvel superhero character would be fun to try out for, even if I would probably get my butt kicked. ~ Crys

Is this really worth it? XD;

Well, I got the footage, now I just need this pesky passport size photo that they want. I'm still waiting for a response from Corey; he might give me the red flag on this, in which I would trust his judgement and not send it in. We'll see though.

Sent out my package a couple of days ago. We'll just see if anything becomes of it.

OMG, I'm gonna do something totally outrageous for Wasp auditions. I may suck, but I'll be HELLA entertaining. XD

Oh, and... doesn't this belong in the "Voice Acting Chat" section?

There's no reason I shouldn't be auditioning for this, since I'm a good VA and a bigger comic fan than any of you.

Oh wait, no camera.

Well, the deadline for sending videos in for this has passed. I got mine sent in 8) I wonder when they'll announce winners? I want to be on at least on the dvd extras lol
