Bitter Remembrance - Choice Based Animated Series PILOT

Bitter Remembrance - Choice Based Animated Series PILOT

Project Overview

ABOUT THE PROJECT

The story is told in both an animated series and a 2d RPG styled game, where you can walk around and interact with people and objects in segments, but doing so triggers an animated cutscene, where you can choose dialog options and make choices. It is voice acted. The project’s demo/chapter 1 is expected to take around or over 4 years to make. All roles are 18+ due to liabilities with working with minors.

STORY:

Story takes place in a world called Eterna, broken apart into five continents that the characters travel across. In this world, the villain has won. The “Cataclysm” that caused destruction across the land, magic to go haywire, and has caused chaos all over the world.

It is all the fault of the villain, Mara, who you play as. You start off with two other characters, Camille, the captain of the Royal Guard, and a mercenary named Zack, knight-in-training. The two best friends volunteered to go capture the villain and restore peace in the world. However, this does NOT go as planned. Mara defeats both of them easily. Before delivering the final blow to Camille, her power backfires, and she’s knocked out. Mara wakes on a beach on a strange island. All she remembers is her name, nothing else. Thus begins a journey. The group must find people to help Mara restore her memories, while struggling with the moral dilemma of, “if she doesn’t remember the evil she caused, is she still guilty and worthy of going to jail to be executed?” Later on, the group meets an old potion maker, a lone wolf thief, and more who wish to help them. The group struggles, bonds, and travels together, but is it all for naught?

ABOUT US:

We are an indie video game studio recently started with a team of 6 animators, and 3 writers, and an editor. Our team is small, but we hope to expand after the demo/pilot's release with a Kickstarter to fund the larger project. If unsuccessful, the project will simply just take longer to make. We intend on finishing it regardless. If you have any questions about us or our project contact me via email [redacted] or on discord (@audwee.)

Latest Updates

  • Casting update!

    Hey all! Sorry for going dark for 2 months, the lead developer had a medical emergency and was unable to work for a while, let alone do anything on personal projects. I'm happy to say this project is back and running as of this week! We will be finishing up casting this coming week as well. We created socials a while back if you'd like to follow the projects progress.

    Thank you all for following this project, we're all happy to be back!

  • New Roles Added! Seeking 2M VA's.

    Thank you for following this project, and once again huge thank you to everyone auditioning! We are casting for one of our other lead characters, named "Zack", due to his former voice actor stepping into another role on the project. This pays the same as all the other lead roles and has a major hand in the project.

    Exciting news coming soon as we have our top 20 candidates for the existing roles picked out, and plan to release more project information soon!

    Thank you for following Bitter Remembrance, I appreciate everyone's submissions and hard work!

    -Audrey

  • Deadline moved + Line edits

    Hello and huge thank you to everyone who is following Bitter Remembrance first of all. Second of all I would like to inform you all that due to number of submissions over such a short period of time, we will be making the date for final submissions due at 3/15/24, instead of 4/15/24. I'm sorry for such short notice, this is mostly due to the animation teams fast work pace, which means we may have this project out slightly sooner than expected if pace keeps up!

    I also have made some adjustments to lines, specifically Camille and Mara, to better fit the range of emotions that the characters convey throughout the script.

    Thank you to everyone who has auditioned thus far, I look forward to potentially working with some of you.

 I'm on the lookout for a BIPOC female voice actor to help voice an animated character in our choice-based role-playing animated series. The role necessitates both a lighthearted and a serious portrayal of the character. I am specifically looking for women of color for this specific role, so I request you look at the other roles we will have available later down the line.


 Here's a bit more insight on the specifics of the project:


 - Character: The character you'll be voicing is a young adult villain who loses her memory. The choices the player makes will shape the characters personality, so tone shifts and different personalities for the character are expected.


- Accent: I'm specifically looking for a voice actor who can deliver lines with an American accent.


Ideal Experience and Skills:

- Previous experience or a reel in character/animation voiceover work is highly desirable.

- Capacity to deliver lines with an American accent.

- Proven ability to portray a female young adult character with range. This is a choice-based animated game with multiple outcomes so range in line delivery and tone are highly preferable.

  • Requires live direction over some type of call. (ex: zoom, discord, etc)
