Somewhat main. In 50% of the film.
A male American businessman in his 20's.

Re: [CASTING CALL (DaD)] Greed

I'd love to audition to be in some part of your film, however sadly my voice pitch suits none of the characters. I'll see if my Mum can do the Teller at the bank. I can't be certain weather she will - does the film have any curses or anything else?

Re: [CASTING CALL (DaD)] Greed

I'll have a go. I'm not really one of the best voice actors, but, which characters don't swear? I can just about go as far as damn, I guess, but no further.

Sent passer-by testlines.

Re: [CASTING CALL (DaD)] Greed

Hi everybody. I am done with the script and have added a new character who I plan to voice myself (only 1 line anyway). I am also almost done with the sets and am getting ready to animate. I still need voices.

@LampLight, I'm waiting on the deeper pitch voice you offered.

Re: [CASTING CALL (DaD)] Greed

I'm sorry for all the bumpage but I'd like to get my voices in. If you guys would be kind enough to audition, its not a super long script.

Re: [CASTING CALL (DaD)] Greed

Hi everyone. I don't mean to sound desperate but I'm desperate.
Please at least audition. Otherwise I can't enter the contest.
