Faraway Logs - OMORI VHS Analog Series (CLOSED)

Project Overview



  1. DEADLINE : January 23 2023

    DISCLAIMER: Age requirement is 16+. While this series is wholesome and contains your average slice-of-life routine, this series will also contain sensitive topics such as depression, anxiety, and suicide.

    LOOKING FOR: YOUNG BOY AND GIRL VOICES THAT WOULD SOUND ACCURATE TO SUNNY AND HIS FRIENDS




  2. FARAWAY LOGS -
    Introduction


    Hello fellow OMORI fans! We are a duo creator of the Faraway Logs series, which is a Slice of Life VHS analog series based on the game. The content within this series is a prequel to the main story of OMORI. We will try our best to keep it closely canon and will stay true to each character from the game, but we will also implement A LOT of headcanon timelines/stories while staying true to the original story. Once selected, we'll also be open to hearing your headcanon/canon ideas! If considered, there'll be a likely chance for us to bring it to life through our animations! There will be no headspace stories, but there will be a lot of headspace references.


  3. What is Faraway Logs?

    Faraway Logs is a non-profit passion project that's based on BASIL'S POV from his daily life with his friends. He records everyone's hobbies and daily routines as they go about their days. Basil is the main character of this series and the stories will heavily rely on his narrations. Follow him and his friends as they live their young, peaceful lives in Faraway Town.




  4. FARAWAY LOGS - Auditions

    We are looking for people to voice the main cast! Sunny, Basil, Aubrey, Kel, Hero, Mari, and other supporting characters. I realized the methods I've been using to create the series are very limited, so I'm reaching out to potential voice actors to voice the main characters! The series will only contain the past timelines of OMORI. Therefore, the characters will need to have young/teenage voices.



  5. Please read all the lines provided for each character in one take. You can do multiple impressions aswell. 




  6. FARAWAY LOGS - Payment

    There will be no payment, unfortunately. The Faraway Logs is a non-profit passion project. That being said, we are doing this for fun because of our love for the OMORI game and basically just to inspire people! This is an opportunity for everyone participating to improve on our talents and skills, whether that be animating, art, or voice acting. It is essentially just a project to bring inspiration!



  7. FARAWAY LOGS - Requirements

    This project will involve dialogue that will be very conversational/casual, meaning that you'll have to worry less about sounding too professional during the voice acting! We'd prefer to hear your voice acting skills through your natural day-to-day tone. Basically, just imagine you were talking to your friend at school or going about your usual day as you voice your lines!

    -Strongly recommend a decent quality microphone. No background noises, echoes, or static sounds.

    -Clear North American accent pronunciations.

    -Please don't add any pitches, reverbs, alterations, or voice changes to your auditions. We will be the ones putting the "Old Radio" voice effect ourselves

    -Discord will be our main use of communication, so please ensure to provide your discord name and tag in your entry!



    Update  1/10/2023

    Waaa, there's so many auditions and all ya'll are really dedicated. 237 of them already in 24hours!!! We really appreciate for taking your time to audition for these roles, everyone. Also, I forgot to mention this to everyone that this project will not be time-consuming. So once you're chosen for the part, it won't be IMMEDIATELY that you'll voice lines/scripts. There is no pressure here, I just want everybody to have fun and take all the time you need. I'll get scripts working starting the week after the deadline (Jan 23rd).
