Call of Duty Zombies Abridged Parody (teaser video)
Project Overview
Voices needed for four World War 2-era Marines + a pilot and his co-pilot for a short teaser video for my upcoming comedy series based on Call of Duty: Zombies
Plot synopsis: It’s June 4th, 1945, you and your men just crash landed at an airfield in axis-controlled Europe. You survive and regroup inside an abandoned bunker, but now you’ve got a new problem, Nazi Zombies. Fight and survive the night using your weapons, combat training, freaky boxes, and your true American grit.
Disclaimer: This will be an adult series with cursing, death, and intense scenes of war and zombie mayhem.
The work requested will consist of a handful of conversational lines as well as combat dialogue that I will ask whoever is cast as the Marines to read, so that I will have the flexibility to try out anyone’s take/character for a line in the editing process. I’m creating a dark comedy, so while some of the lines and situations may be humorous, I want the lines to be read in a serious tone. These roles will require a lot of yelling and screaming.

Aloof, i’ll-fitted for his job, very much inspired by Leslie Nielsen characters (Airplane!, The Naked Gun, etc.)
I’m open to any take on this role.

“This is Yankee-five, zero, one— we may have a situation here. (turns to co-pilot) Say, is that dial supposed to be doing that?”
“Controls are feeling fine, despite the awful sounds, go check and see what’s making all that ruckus”
(after being notified that they’ve lost engine three)
“Uh oh, that’s not good… Is that one important?”
The straight man to counter the incompetency of the pilot. I’m open to any take on this role.
- english
“We are currently in axis-controlled airspace, our equipment is on the goddamn fritz. It’s like we’re being jammed.”
“Sir, we’ve lost engine three.”
“…They’re all important, sir.”
Marine #1 is the hard ass of the group who tries to whip them all into shape and take charge of the situation
- english
“Enough jabbering Marines, let’s get it together. I can’t explain what the hell is going on out there, but I do know that we can handle anything these Nazi sons of bitches throw at us. Are you with me?
“We’ll keep that door closed and create a barrier while you radio command!”
“Keep firing, Marines! They’ve gotta run outta men sooner or later!”
Marine #2 is the most frightened one of the group, he’s woefully unprepared for the situation at hand
- english
“You saw those things out there, right? I mean, that wasn’t normal?”
Context: The Marines just regrouped inside the abandoned bunker after surviving the plane crash and seeing the zombies for the first time, shell-shocked”
“I don’t know, it just — came out of the wall!”
Context: The Marine is being questioned about where he got his gun, after unwittingly purchasing it from a chalk outline of a Kar98k
“What’s gonna happen to me?”
Context: The Marine just picked up a floating power-up, having never seen something like it in his life, and not knowing if it might do something negative to him
Marine #3 is a blank canvas, I’m open to any take on this role
- english
“Shit! I’m running low on rounds!”
“I don’t think this is any better, sir!”
“I don’t know! It’s just—playing some kind of music! — Look out!
Context: He’s being asked about the progress of the radio that they want to use to radio command, then notices a zombie coming up behind another Marine
The role I am most flexible with, this marine is staying strong and taking charge of the situation. He’s the last surviving marine of the group by the end.

“We gotta get to higher ground, move up the stairs!”
“Sitrep? We’re all fucking dying, how’s that for a sitrep?!”
“Okay box, give me something, anything” — Ah, come on!”
