THANK YOU EVERYONE!!!
Nearly 600 auditions is incredible! I will be going over all of them over the next few days and we shall have our decisions by Monday or Tuesday! Thank you again everyone!
Hi there my name is Lucas, and I'm back at it yet again trying to get a few roles for our comedy/drama mixed series. But where do you come in? Well I need a few VA's to act dumb and make funny voices. Ever play Dungeons and Dragons? If not no worries but I highly recommend taking a look at the concept of Chaotic Stupid. Why? See Below:
Our skits take place in a cinematic universe where basically every main character is either Chaotic Neutral or Chaotic stupid. Be it the schizophrenic Artificer with a God Complex, the Sadistic Paladin way too in love with the crusades, the love struck Necromancer just trying to raise a family, and many many more.
We are actively seeking a video editor as well to assist with our shorts so that I can spend more time on the longer videos. More details below.
Read the bottom as well but just so we're being transparent again, our short 30 second ish vids on tik tok are unpaid, all videos that go to Youtube are paid. The tik tok shorts are compiled together once we have a few and go up Youtube as compilations, and will be paid upon completion.
WHO ARE WE
We are Heretical Fun House. You can find us on our two primary sites here:https://www.tiktok.com/@hereticaltavern (Our Tik Tok where all these dumb vids are uploaded)
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCypW2TiELdqodyKIAwh3i0Q (Our YouTube with skit compilations and story vids)
We make a ton of content that mostly revolves around comedic animations, podcasts, and are even making our first video game. For now though it's a bunch of DnD skits.
Our Tik Tok videos on average reach upwards of about 20,000-50,000 views and our YouTube has just broke 10,000 subscribers. So we're chugging along!
REQUIREMENTS
NOTE:
-As always, our tik tok videos are unpaid due to the consistency of short 30 second clips. However we always compile these shorts into youtube videos which are paid. So in short, Tik Tok vids are unpaid, but once on Youtube they are paid.
Nearly 600 auditions is incredible! I will be going over all of them over the next few days and we shall have our decisions by Monday or Tuesday! Thank you again everyone!
A demon of considerable age and power. During their height Agamonth stood on a mountain of bodies, and revealed in every waking second of its carnage. But as the great invasion came to a crashing defeat, Agamonth was sent far away by their master to defend a lost ruin. Which they came to greatly loath and despise.
Agamonth is an apathetic being that only derives pleasure and joy from combat. So we're looking for a voice that can sound foreboding and bored, and switch to a real Battle Junkie energy when in fight scenes. Male, Female, Low or high, with effects or without, throw whatever you think fits together.
"Oh master, why do you insist on sending such creatures to face me? I yearn for a challenge. Master, you're so very cruel... At least their screams, satisfy."
"Yes yes, proceed with your speech. What is it this time? Did I kill your grandfather? Mother? Lover? Pet? Whatever it is, get it out of your system before you die."
( Progressively getting more Excited) "A Death Guard? A Death Guard?! In My territory?! This is the happiest day of my existence! I've wanted to kill one of you again for decades!!! Oh when the Master killed off your chapter I was terrified I'd never get to experience this! Oh happy days, face me, mutant. To the death! (Bonus points for crazy laughter)
Liam is a man of etiquette, manners, and perfection. Nothing gets his ire like chaos, and he sees himself as a hero bringing order to a disorderly world. For this role I have a major story arch planned from villain to redeemed hero, so we'll need someone capable of delivering extremely emotional lines when needed.
Outside of the emotion, the rest of his lines will need to be spoken with preferably an English accent. If you've a separate account you'd like to try that's perfectly fine, but we will prioritize English accents.
(After fighting the party and winning without breaking a sweat, you're understanding now that this "Great threat" you're hunting is just so... underwhelming) "Not a single well thought out tactic or strategy. No field leaders, no call outs, this has to be the most….. Well…. I hate to toss the word around, but this is truly the most disappointing fight I’ve ever experienced."
(Practicing your form) "One, two, three, One two, three, and... (Growing more and more anxious as uncomfortable memories keep getting dredged up) "One... And two, and... Fuck, one and two, and... (Explode with anger after a pause) DAMN IT! Will you be quiet, I- (Stop yourself) No... No... Manners, Liam... Manners, you are better than this."
(You're slowly learnign the truth that your "father" is a horrible man, swallowed by revenge. And you hate that you see it.) "Right, and I’m supposed to doubt the man that sacrificed so much to save me? He gave me a life, gave me purpose. Do you really expect me to throw away the twelve years of love he gave me? Hmph, I should’ve never bothered listening to you."
Unfortunately this role was originally held by a wonderful actor whom is no longer able to do the role. So we're looking for someone that can either sound as the previous actor did, or bring a whole new dash of paint to the voice. See here https://www.tiktok.com/@hereticaltavern/video/7091922679636299051 as the voice is the character in pink that starts at this video.
Benjamin is a bureaucrat through and through whom aims to upload the law by any and all means He's vying for a great deal of power in our little mythos, so we'll need someone who can really bring about that ambitious voice.
(Your speech is falling through and you're trying to salvage it as the royal family seems disinterested) "That… That may be, but the actions themselves cannot be allowed. What if the citizenry were to begin getting ideas? My people hear them whispering. The other adventurers especially are speaking, giving him ideas, encouraging his behavior. His entourage as well are far too problematic."
(Victoriously, as you're winning the argument and the authorities over) "Oh dear me you seem to be under the impression that you can fight your way out of this. This is not a hostile takeover where violence and bloodshed is needed, sirs, this is merely an application of appropriate legal force. So please... Do lay a hand on me, give my men reason... It would simply make my day oh so much more enjoyable."
(Terrified as your enemies are closing in) "Y-You can't touch me! I've been granted Imperial Protection- (You're shot at, give a yelp and then speak fast with a mix of anger and fear) Stop! Stop! Don't you know who I am?! Do you have any idea what I'm capable of?!
Heretical Fun House is looking to expand and acquire 1-2 additional video editors to join our team.
In our videos we have our animation style of editing, or if you want we assign jobs for just text placement. The text is only allowing me to set it per hour or per day, but we're paying for this by video. I pay between 20-50 a vid. 20 for shorts, up to 50 for longer ones (These are usually no more than 10-15 minutes). We have videos 20 minutes and over which we are happy to negotiate for, but as I know it's a lot to do I won't ask anyone to do it. We'd prefer to have someone who can work on both shorts and longer ones, but again we're not picky. We just need some help. Plus submit examples below so we can see your editing style. Note, we'd prefer to have someone who understands the use of key frames and has very precise comedic timing.
Text videos are between 15-30$ depending on video length.
*Say something you think would fit*
You are the Nameless. Chapter master of the Order of Saint Aru'Rane, and veteran monster slayer, demon hunter, and devil killer. For this character I need an old military voice that's simply too world weary to give a shit anymore. Male or Female, doesn't matter, we just need someone who can give that emotion of world weariness, bitterness, you've survived in an occupation where all of your friends are long gone. Now there's only the mission.
For this character background you are essentially playing the knife in the dark that honors the will of the Gods. You use wickedness and cruelty to fight against Demons, Devils, cultists, the whole shebang. But above all your piety is who you are at your core.
(Note there are currently very few lines for this character, but for one of our larger releases we'll be have a ton of episodes planned with this guy. So please understand work will be slow at first)
https://youtu.be/J365hQpaWRw?t=77 here you'll see from 1:18 - 1:33 the voice type we're going for, but again play with it and take it wherever you feel you can!
(Context): You're giving painful advice to your new recruits who are burying the dead. - "Tears do nothing for the dead, boy, honor them through action. Smite the wicked that have taken them from the world. Salting the ground with your crying will do nothing good."
(Context): You're offering a battle prayer before hunting a dangerous demon - "Blessed are we, of mortal flesh that have been called to face the Demon. For chosen are we to battle that of vile darkness, and in doing so will have become the nightmare of that which seeks our end."
(Context): In battle, so be aggressive with this, your men are getting too cocky - "They're not idiots Sargent, they're deliberately slowing us down. Take Ifrit Squad and stop that beast now! If it gets out, we're all dead!
As the name suggests this character is a Fire Giant. I would love either a very convincing or native Scottish or Irish accent for this role, HOWEVER, it is not REQUIRED. Again, the beauty of D&D everyone, if you can make something sound better than whatever I'm thinking of, go for it.
Origeer is an old being, master of the forge, and inventor of the some of the grandest creations during the cataclysm. We want a very fatherly approach to the role at hand, both caring in his own way and harsh in words and action. Tough love if the only language you speak. You don't care much for people, but your machines that have become alive you have a great deal of care for, and it breaks your heart sending them to fight.
But you'd never show it fully. Think a kind of Kratos with Atreus vibe.
(Teaching your newly made creations their purpose) "You will be sword and shield. Bastion and Ballista. It is your duty, my children, to protect that which cannot protect itself.
(Upset at someone having basically thrown your creations into the fire with no regard for their safety) "They were just made! (Pause and collect yourself) They were just made and needed time to prepare, but you threw them right into the jaws of oblivion! You sent children to perish, you heartless bastard!
(Exhausted, you're nearing your end and trying to pass something along, but you're not afraid. Be that strong fatherly figure) "You weren't sent for me... You were sent for this. (Pause) The Cradle... My life's work. The demons cannot get their hands on this. Guard it... And ensure my apprentices survive. (Pause) Do not weep, do your job.
