Hey there! Welcome to the Literature club. Here, I will be holding a casting call for a cinematic fan dub of this excellent game! Anyone and everyone is welcome to audition for the roles below. Please read the rules listed below, as they will help make this time much better for you and everyone else. I hope you all have fun, and good luck!
Note: As I am an aspiring voice actor as well, one of the roles below will be precast. Every other character will be opened to try for, so feel free to try for any of them. I hope you understand and I’m sure we will have a lot of fun! Good luck to all of you!
Here is a pronunciation guide in case you need help with the Japanese names
Keichi: Kay - ee - chi
Sayori: Sa - yo - ri
Yuri: Yu - ri

Monika is just Monika, so no worries on that one.

— RULES TO FOLLOW —
1. I strongly recommend playing the game, or at least watching a let's play for it before coming into this project. This will help you avoid spoilers along the way, whether you are cast in the project or not. I guarantee there will be many spoilers to come, especially if you are cast. It will also help you get closer to the characters, which really helps when you're acting as them. So at the very least please check the game out in some way, and get the experience of the game in its purest form. Trust me, it will be worth it. :)
2. Please make sure your microphone has good sound quality when auditioning. And when recording, please try to eliminate as much background noise as you can. I want to be able to hear all of your wonderful voices clearly when I come and listen to them. A microphone that I recommend for a starter is the Blue Yeti. It's easy to use, and can help you sound great if you work with the noise reduction functions in whatever recording software you use, like Audacity. Other accessories recommended are a pop filter, which lengthens you microphones lifespan, and reduces harshness of P and D sounds, as to not peak the audio. If you can, also look into an arm or stand for your mic, as it improves the sound quality of the audio by reducing vibrations from your desk.
3. Be nice and respectful to everyone auditioning! No mean or negative comments please. However, constructive criticism is always welcome and recommended. Also, feel free to give upvotes on the auditions you like. They won't be used to influence my decision, but it's always nice to show your support for your fellow voice actors.
4. For those of you that are cast, the web site will send you an automated email letting you know that you’ve been chosen. You will have one week to message me confirming your role. Once that step is complete, I will send you a link to the Discord server where most of our communication will take place, and give you further instructions. If for whatever reason you do not confirm with me, I will have to give the role to a runner up, so be sure to get this step done ASAP. My email is listed above. It’s fast and easy.
5. Get as creative as you want! These characters have a very wide range of emotion, so even though there will be some instructions, I still want creativity with the sound, so do what you think works. You're allowed to do as many takes for each line as you like for your audition, so do what you think is best! Also, if it turns out that you want to redo an audition, simply let me know in the comments, and I'll delete your first audition for you so you can try again.
6. Have fun with this! I encourage all of you to give every audition your absolute best shot! Let's make this Undertale fandub awesome!!! :)
P.S. If I think of anything else along the way that needs to be mentioned, I will update this page. So be sure to check in regularly.
— HAVE FUN, AND GOOD LUCK!!! —
