Kaigan: Spirit Chronicles - EXTENSIVE CAST LIST POSTED

[derekotsu]

~~Kaigan: Spirit Chronicles -- (Re)Casting Call ~~

http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b335/kaidoinda804/kaigansplash.jpg

Hey guys, Dere-kotsu back doing a recasting of some previous characters and casting new characters. Due to some life changes or issues with some of the cast members, I decided to do some recasting to get the anime back in full swing. For those who aren't familiar with Kaigan, here is a plot summary for you to read:

"Akari Yamagishi, a female fighting priestess (in-training) helps her family renew a seal to a shrine that has been placed for years. But there was one small problem... the seal broke!! With this, a small rift between the human world and several planes opened. To make things worse, they released a young half fox demon by the name of Kenzu Nyoki (rumored to be one of the Children of Destruction) who has been sealed all this time. Will Kenzu become a savior of the different worlds? Or a destroyer, annihilating everything in his path? Before he truly knows his destiny, has to deal with his biggest challenge yet - life as a teenager and a student in an extraordinary school! So be ready for comedy, romane, drama, action, suspense, adventure, and tragedy with Kaigan: Spirit Chronicles!!"

Here is the scrapped Episode 1 with the some of the old cast members:


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aG_qZT_o5JQ&feature=plcp

Well for the time being, I will posting the characters needed for the episode(s) in production. This way, we won't have a huge bulk of characters and auditions.

When recording:
1 ) Please record in .mp3 format (44100 Hz).
2 ) Make sure you have a clean recording and have a acceptable microphone. (No hums, reverbs, pops or puffs).
3 ) Have at least 2-3 takes per line.
4 ) When you save, please save using this format: "YourUsername_Charcter_line#".
5 ) Put all of your lines in one file and send them in a RAR or ZIP folder labeled "username_kaigan auditions".
6 ) I will give out critiques when asked. And you are able to redo once when you get a critique.
7 ) If you can, please link/send me a demo reel. Because there are a lot of roles later on and I might be able to cast you in future roles.
8 ) Disregarding these simple rules will force me to disregard you audition. So please, READ CAREFULLY.

Contact:
Email - derekotsu@gmail.com
Skype - dere-kotsu (ONLY FOR QUESTIONS. Will not accept live auditions)

Oh? I can't wait to see what to send then!

Thanks for the bump! :D

Oh and I will be working on the scripts today. Once I finish scripting for 2 (maybe 3) episodes, I will start working on backdrops and kind of do some animations to get everything together. I know there will be a few more extras available, so when I finish with the script I will post the roles on the thread!

[11linda]

Hmm I'll give it a go, but I remember some of these lines xD, this was like the last project I auditioned for before a left vaa several months ago due to my own self-esteem issues x.x sorry about that, although you probably don't remember it O.o.

Received List updated!

[Kokoro Hane]

I apologize for not getting my audition in, and I won't be able to record with my good mic 'till my brother gets back (so probably not 'till Sunday). Would it be OK if I send an audition with my headset mic, just to see if you like my voice and acting skills? If for some reason you do choose me, I will of course use the good mic, and I can redo my audition on Sunday if you like.

EDIT; Oh wait, I misread the deadline. I'll get a real audition in by Sunday ^.^

[SiegeShadow]

This looks awesome.
I'll send in an audition for a couple characters soon!

Aaaaaactually it is for me to keep a list of people I wanna cast for more Major and Minor characters later in the series. Because there are....A LOT more

[Megami33]

Is there still a chance my other tryouts could be for the second batch or is it one character per person just curious cause I just realize 2 of my other tryouts were from the second batch.

[ATheatricalSongBird]

Wheeeee! I confirm for Hitomi! Thank you!
Am incredibly eager for Batch 2’s cast list!
Congratulations to the rest of the cast, and best of luck for everyone in the next batch!

[derekotsu]

Yes There is opening opportunity for multiple casting. Since the entire character roster is long haha.

[ATheatricalSongBird]

I’m really surprised there hasn’t been a swarm of auditions for the Master particularly,
He seems like he’d be a lot of fun to voice!!

[derekotsu]

I’m really surprised there hasn’t been a swarm of auditions for the Master particularly,
He seems like he’d be a lot of fun to voice!!

Well it has been a selection of Master auditions.. but I have been either too picky or don't want to multicast TOO much...

[SopheeRuu]

Thank you very much! Confirming for the part of Aya Yamagishi! :)

[derekotsu]

Bumping this up for confirmations and more auditions for Batch 2.

[TaintedSibling]

Well it has been a selection of Master auditions.. but I have been either too picky or don't want to multicast TOO much...
Huh...since I only auditioned for Master guess I better try out for others if you have a particular set mind frame for him.
:P
Congrats to all who got casted in Batch 1!

[★menolly]

c-c-confirming ;//u//; thank you so much, and congratulations / good job to everyone!!

[Kokoro Hane]

[SageHalo]

Congrats to y'all who were cast.

[derekotsu]

I see my name under "casting to unlisted characters throughout series" ??? I am not sure what that means, unless it means I am an extra ^.^;l

This means that because I have a huge character roster, I will most likely scout for VAs to voice them. But why look far when I got VAs who done well during auditioning. :D

[derekotsu]

Bumping for more Batch 2 Auditions.. Especially for Mint, Master, and Kimaria

[TaintedSibling]

Last minute audition sent!

Check your spam folder in case it doesn't show up, I would hate for you to not receive it. Let me know if you got it.

And looking forward to hearing back.

[derekotsu]

Alright peoples the auditions are now CLOSED. I will post the results during the morning/afternoon because there are some extra characters I want to cast as well. So, please be patient as I get everything settled. Thank you again for auditioning everyone!

[derekotsu]

Hey everyone.. sorry for the delay in casting. Not only am I deciding over the Batch 2 characters, I am also compiling and casting to other characters in the series (both Major and Minor). I know there will be multiple roles for several voice actors so give me a bit of time to fully get this extensive cast list out.

[thelovebat]

Man the wait is killing me. Haha.

[derekotsu]

Hey EVERYONE!!

The Cast List has been posted! What I have done here is not only cast both Batch 1 and 2, but other characters as well. I have also included some characters I have had selected voice actors for ahead of time. I know some of you are curious about some of the roles you received. That is why after you confirm for you role(s), please e-mail me on any questions about the characters you received. Please note that these are not the full list of characters. We will post whenever the characters are needed to be cast. Thank you for all who auditioned and who were patient during this whole process.

[RevolverJustice]

And confirming! it'll be a pleasure working with you all =D

[teamnibu_nitro]

Congrats to everyone though. I'll continue to keep my eye on this, cause it does look cool.

Shortlist.... Sounds so negative .__.

[Praxis678]

Shortlist.... Sounds so negative .__.Shortlist=To be on a list that's short. In this context you are one of the first of VA's on a list to be called upon to voice miscellaneous roles in the series. Don't really know what's negative about that. You basically are the goto guy for extras.

Well technically I didn't make the first batch or the second (but I didn't audition for the second but some of the only batch 1s made a character..)

still sounds a bit negative to me >.> :/ (sorry for the negativity)

[derekotsu]

Hey everyone! To those who are in the cast, if you would like a picture (original or custom) of your character, Please let me know. At the moment, I am looking over music on Newgrounds' Audio Portal. I will keep this thread open to relay news and updates. This way I do not have to reopen the thread when I do a Batch 3, 4......or 5 even. Sorry, I had a Snaggletooth moment there >.<

If you would like to see the visuals so far for Episode 1 check out this link here: http://www.newgrounds.com/dump/item/6ec0b39ec9d2b8496fad1d801a33757b

[TaintedSibling]

Very nice animation there. I see you left blanks on the faces for lip movment.

[11linda]

Your animations are amazing =) congraz to everyone who got a role cannot wait to see the finished project!

[finalCrystine]

Confirming for shortlist!

[derekotsu]

Alright Kaigan cast.... A virus prevented me from accessing ANY file on my laptop and my external hard drive, leaving me no choice but to format the external and do a factory reset to the laptop. Luckily, I was able to recover the flash project, cast list, theme song, and the lines for episode one sent so far (via email). But I lost all my concept art and music.... Sooooo... I guess I will be recollecting the music and drawing my butt off for a while >.<

Ugh, that sucks :/

[SopheeRuu]

So sorry to hear that! Hope the redrawing and recovery of the music goes smoothly in the meantime!
