Topic: I Am The Night - Casting call and other Audio Related Stuff
For those of you who aren't aware, I'm making a huge Batman film called I Am The Night. < Just click the link and you can read up on it.
For the most part, I'll be playing a whole lot of parts, maybe around half, and I'll have a fellow from my theatre group portraying Batman, but I've still got a few other parts to fill, whose voices I can't quite get without stretching it a bit too far, as I don't want people to sound alike. And so here are the parts which still need filling:
NOTE: Not all of the test line are actually from the movie, some I just thought up randomly, and some are from the TV show, and you can also send what ever test line you want, as long as it seems like something the character would say, so feel free to do what ever line you wish, I'd actually much prefer it. C:
The Riddler TAKEN BY DARTH VINCENT PRICE
News Reporter TAKEN
Commissioner Gordon
Relatively large amount of lines.
Test Line: "Alright men, I want you three to cover the back exit, you two come in from the side while Johnnybob and I try to draw some of their fire." (and/or:) "Batman, we've got a situation."
Must have a very good grown-up sounding voice. Kinda tough and commanding.
Alfred TAKEN BY EVAN
The Green Hornet & Kato
Very few lines probably. They just have a small cameo on a TV.
Hornet Test Line: "Alright, Kato, let's get back to the Black Beauty."
Kato Test Line: "Okay, boss."
I would like them to sound like how they did in the '60s Hornet show. You can probably find some examples on YouTube. Kato must have a good Bruce Lee impersonation, and in absolutely no circumstances is the Hornet to sound like the guy from the new movie.
And that's it for the roles for now.
I don't need these very soon. So if you get picked, it may be a little while until I have the line for you to do. These all need to be very good. I don't want childish voices for these guys, this is a relatively serious movie. And you must have reasonably good recording resources. I don't want fuzz of mic pops or all that. Also, absolutely none of this move has and bad language.
If you'd like to audition, tell me so here, and I'll PM you my E-Mail. 
Kind of important note: Unlike most people, I don't record all of the lines then animate, I do it the other way around. Though this movie will have some lines where you can record then I animate, it won't be that way with all of them. I like to think it up as I go along. No script. After I've animated, I'll put up a private video on YouTube with subtitles for you to watch and sync it to the animation. I do, however, time lines shortly before animating as so I'll know how long the animation must be. It's also kinda nice to be able to watch your character when you do lines for him.
Music
Since this is the audio thread, I might as well mention that this film will have its own music. Not McLeod, or pirated stuff from the movies. But an actual score my sister will write. We actually used the main tune she made up for Batman in MAILBOX OF DOOM! (quite ironically after Batman got eaten alive).
Sound Effects
It's also going to have only original sound effects by me. I shall be revising nearly all of my sound library with a Blue Snowball. I would also like some ideas on how to record some sounds:
Silenced pistols
Explosions
The Bat-mobile
Choppers
Electrical zappy sounds
(As you might have guessed, I don't have silenced pistols, explosives, or all that good stuff. I'd like to know how to make that with regular stuff)
