Sword Z Voice Auditions!

[Nojical101]

This project is for a series I'm writing and animating called Soul Weapon. I also voice the main character (Derik Evans).

What is Soul Weapon? When Derik Evans, Ryan Killigan, and Evan Evans move to Station Square (Pennsylvania(it's a real place...look it up)), they meet Derik's mentor Bradley "Bronze" Brown. He asks them to join his team to help Station Square from any danger that befalls the unfortunate city. They agree and begin their fight to save the city.

Currently: They are settling into their new found home in "Serenity Parks"

The cast so far is (by username):
Derik Evans (Main Male Protagonist): Myself (Nojical101)

Ryan Killigan (Male Protagonist): OPEN
Age: 15
Vocal Range: Medium
Description: Derik's best friend. Ryan is the comic relief character, usually joking around or causing comedic moments. He is mostly serious when he needs to be, though. He believes he is the fastest thing alive and is always ready to defend his title. He uses twin pistols in combat and has a handy backpack which he can stuff at most one person inside. Sometimes he can show off more than he should, which leads him to needing help.
Demo Lines:
"Derik, I need back-up over here."
"Guns, if you hadn't almost shot me in the face, I would love you again!"
"You can't keep up with me, Quincy. I'm too fast for you!"

Diana Rose (Female Protagonist): littletophatgal

Bradley "Bronze" Brown (Male Protagonist): Sergentjak01

Evan Evans (Male Protagonist): StaticBunnyStudios

Misty Clark (Female Protagonist): Aisu

Quincy Adams (Male Protagonist): lazytoucan

Sarah Parsons (Female Supportive Protagonist): Miss Ringo

Nicholas Gonzales (Male Antagonist): WUDWUD96

Maria Gonzales (Female Antagonist - Protagonist): RoselleVAA

Carter Parry (Male Supportive Character): MBaerStudios

Maxwell Smith (Main Male Antagonist): Batt

Robin Smith (Female Antagonist): sierraphantom

Chelsea Smith (Female Antagonist):nagiko145

Tyler Alaxander (Male Antagonist): JayMyres

More roles to come in the future

Auditioning Rules:
1. Audio must be clear without background noises (like buzzing, fan, or people)
2. Audio files must be sent in either .mp3 or .wav formats.
3. Once I receive the voice actor for what I need, I will leave the thread open, but I will not accept any more auditions for that character.
4. When sending the file, make sure it's sent to nojicalauditions@yahoo.com (nojicalauditions@yahoo.com)
5. You must post on the forum that you will send in your lines and as who.
6. If you do not know who you want to try out for, then just send an e-mail with some voices you could provide.

I will keep up to date on what I will require later on, and the winner of the audition will be posted on this thread, and if a new character comes up where a voice actor is needed, I will post those as well.

Episodes (currently released):
Prologue 1/3 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7dmmIjrOQ6o&feature=plcp)
Prologue 2/3 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZjnKNWbU2fE&feature=plcp)

[CerealKiller]

I sent you and email. I'd like a little more info on a character.

[Nojical101]

First up on the list is a new voice actor for the character "Bradley 'Bronze' Brown". He's a major character in the series and I can't move forward with my project since the old guy isn't doing it, the voice for his character needs a change (he gave me the lines, but I don't like it), and I need it A.S.A.P.
Some background info:
He is the leader of the "Bronze-Star Knights" (group of protagonists) who takes his job very seriously. He is almost considerably a perfectionist in his personal life and doesn't take his "Knights" slacking off kindly. He is a half Lycan and is able to control his abilities based on the time of day. I will send more info about his vocal range through e-mail

**CLOSED**
The winner is: Sergentjak01!

*Daily Bump*

[AirZach]

I'd like to audition but I'm not sure which character (if any) would fit my voice. Can I send you an mp3 file of my voice and some acting stuff I can do? Thanks!

[Nojical101]

Of course! Send me an e-mail as soon as you can, and good luck!

[teamnibu_nitro]

Looks entertaining. Are there any audition lines for any of the open characters, or should I send you an e-mail asking for information on the open characters?

I should probably just have a message at the bottom of the list saying "If you do not know who you want to try out for, then just send an e-mail with some voices you could provide." shouldn't I?

I was asking about audition lines, and character information though. If possible, I was gonna try to audition for all the open characters. If there aren't any audition lines, then am I supposed to just send an e-mail with wav/mp3 files of just me talking with expressed interest? And I was asking about character information because I'd like to know a little bit more about the characters I'm auditioning for beyond just a name. Sorry for not exactly understanding how you want these auditions done right away.

Look again. I updated the Cast List so now there are audition lines.

[Gonzo'sCoast]

I've sent an audition, but as soon as I came back to this page, new stuff popped up.

[Nojical101]

Sorry man...people happened. Just send me another audition via e-mail, and we'll see how it goes from there. Unless you're going for a different character.

[teamnibu_nitro]

I can't help but feel like my questions did nothing but bother, and annoy you when all I was trying to do was better understand what you wanted out of these auditions. So I'm going to pass on this. Good luck to you though, you do have a nice looking project there. Having actual audition lines will help you out, so I'm glad you did address that at least.

No, they didn't bother me. In fact, I'm glad you gave me feedback with how to improve my thread! I'm also sad that you decided to pass. Thanks for your time and advice, man!

[Drewmann96]

I shall be sending an audition in relatively soon!

[Nojical101]

I shall be sending an audition in relatively soon!

For who? Rule #5 is to say you'll send me audition lines and as who. Don't worry, I don't mind, but it lets others know that someone else is auditioning for the character (whoever your trying out for).

[Dr. Weird]

I'm sending in an audition for all three male roles still available.

[Nojical101]

**NEW CHARACTER**
Check out the cast list for the new character, Quincy Adams!

[RaidenTheBird]

Audition for Nicholas sent :)

[Nojical101]

Hey! Look at that! Another new character, but this time, it's for a female role. Look at the cast list for Sarah Parsons!

[Lazytoucan]

Hey audition sent Quincy carter maxwell

[Masakura]

I sent my lines :razz:

[Nojical101]

Come on, I need more female voice actors! Everyone's going for Nick all at once!

[Nojical101]

*NOTICE*
ALL AUDITIONS WILL BE CLOSED FOR A SHORT TIME. In the mean time, you can still prep your voice for auditions after we (I) open the auditioning again. Sorry for the inconvenience!

[RoselleVAA]

Awww, well I have my Sarah and Maria audition prepped and all ready to go for you for the Sword Z Auditions.

[Viridiane]

I have a little question that makes me wonder. I've seen that in at least 3 various productions lately, but this is the lattest so the question goes here :P

Why do you want people to impersonate known anime characters instead of trying to interpret yours with original ideas and voice types?

I've been curious for a while, so if you can reply, that'd be swell. Thanks!

Thank you for the concern. You're not the first person to ask me this question, but it's because the auditions aren't perfect copies of the anime characters. After I find a voice actor which I think could fit the character, I ask the actor to tweak the voice by whatever I say. I've also never been great at describing how a character's voice should sound, I could only say how high or low the character's voice. Impersonations followed by tweaks are the best thing I can do.

[Miss Ringo]

I sent an audition for Sarah for you to hold on to when you decide to reopen things. C:

[Nojical101]

*All auditions are open again. Remember to post on the thread before sending auditions so I know when I'm away from the PC*

[RoselleVAA]

I sent my audition for Sarah and Maria! <3

[Nojical101]

I am currently not taking any other female voice actors. Do not worry, more will open up as the project rolls along

[narfire214]

[Nojical101]

Nicholas Gonzales has been updated. I couldn't find a character for you to impersonate, but try acting persistent and mysterious when you attempt to audition.

[Nojical101]

It's been a while. If anyone's still interested, there are still open spots.

[Nojical101]

[Nojical101]

Another bump. Also, WUDWUD96, you are now Nicholas Gonzales!

[WUDWUD96]

Awesome, do we get the rest of the lines when everyone has been cast?

[Nojical101]

Awesome, do we get the rest of the lines when everyone has been cast?

No, this is going to be an episode series. After I finish one episode, I will work on the script for the next episode, and then after that's done, I write the next script, and so on.

[WUDWUD96]

No, this is going to be an episode series. After I finish one episode, I will work on the script for the next episode, and then after that's done, I write the next script, and so on.

Ahh OK! Keep me posted :p

[nagiko145]

gonna audition for Chelsea ^_^

[Nojical101]

Two roles remain. Carter Parry and Tyler Alaxander. No rush, take your time.

[Nojical101]

I think I should start posting the episodes here so everyone knows what they're getting into.

[Nojical101]

Production on the last part of the prologue is going very slow. I am working as fast as I can when I have the opportunity. But hey, that's what the real world likes to do to me!

[MBaerStudios]

I will try to get an audition sent to you later today.

[JayMyers]

Auditioned for Tyler Alaxander. Sent you an email (kitfisto007); this is stickycity from Newgrounds by the way. I did a few voices, just pick out the one you like (I'd go for the last one).

[Nojical101]

One role remains. Have fun with it!

[MBaerStudios]

One role remains. Have fun with it!

Audition sent.

[Nojical101]

All roles have been cast. There will be more roles in the future. Thank you all for participating!

[Nojical101]

MAJOR ROLE ALERT! I need a new person to voice Misty. I fiddled around with the script to the point where I needed redos from the voice actress for Misty. I sent a P.M. and an e-mail to her a while ago, then realized her latest activity was a month ago. I need them now, so I made an executive decision. I opened a new audition for her. If she replies back saying she can get them to me, I will call this off. But that's not now. So whoever gets the role, I will give you...something, I'm working on it.

[Nojical101]

Just gonna make a *BUMP* here. There is still time to try out for Misty, but please hurry!

[ShadowVchunky1]

Just sending my audition for Misty Clark. :D

[Nojical101]

It's your friendly neighborhood Daily Bump

[Nojical101]

The Halloween bump

[Nojical101]

Ok, this role needs to be filled now. I don't wanna put the prologue off any longer

[Aisu]

I'll audition when I get home tonight!

[Nojical101]

Alright, that's that for now. Check back frequently for more updates!
