Left 4 Dead: The Sacrifice Comic Dub

Project Overview

LEFT 4 DEAD is a multiplayer horror game set amidst a zombie apocalypse. The game notably takes place 2 weeks after the first person was reported as infected with the "Green Flu" Virus. In the game's intro, since a short time had passed since the first infection, the infected began to mutate, spawning more than just regular zombies. The world is filled with millions, maybe even billions of "Common Infected." Now that they've begun to mutate, among the Common Infected are now the less frequent, but much deadlier "Special Infected," such as Hunters, Boomers, Smokers, Witches, Tanks, Jockeys, Spitters, and Chargers. The Special Infected all have superhuman/supernatural abilities that the Common Infected don't possess.

This Comic Dub will focus on "The Sacrifice" Comic, which has FOUR TOTAL CHAPTERS being converted into EPISODES in this project). The comics tie in to the game's canon, providing a much more lore-friendly story to a game that doesn't exactly drop lore in your face. All that this project needs is the Voice Actors for Francis, Louis, and Zoey. I will be covering the audio, video editing and Bill's Voice Acting. This is my first SERIOUS project. A lot of the things I've worked on in the past have had a silly/comedic nature. I've been a fan of Left 4 Dead for a very, very long time, so this seems like the right thing to do right now!

    Hello everyone! I very much appreciate the amount of submissions on the very first day the project was created! That means a lot!

    I will not be choosing roles very quickly with this project, as I'd like to maximize the potential for auditions with each character. I also still need submissions on Louis, as he's sitting at zero. I know it will be difficult to live up to what Earl Alexander pulled off in the booth all the way back in 2007, but I'm sure some awesome VA's can pull it off!

    The first episode script is almost complete! I'm assembling everything into an easy to digest script, as the comic was sort of all over the place, and we love it for that. It was just difficult to read without scanning over the whole page. It was dark in some areas, and sometimes the character speaking was almost fully covered in shadow, making it difficult to see who's even talking. I'm also using the script as an opportunity to ensure the tone of the lines are understood by each VA. Discerning where it was appropriate to yell or emphasize, what mood the character should portray while speaking, etc.

    At some point here, I'll begin on working on video editing that way once VA's are selected, it's as easy as adding the completed lines into the video, and boom! It should be quick and easy!

    Thanks again for checking out this project!

LOUIS (MAIN CHARACTER)
open
Paid: Flat Rate 20 USD

Character Information: Louis is a systems analyst for an IT department. Louis is normally observative, knowledgeable and kind. He also canonically knows some Japanese, as seen in the game's campaign under the same name, where he calls Francis an idiot in Japanese.


Voice Notes: Louis has a mid-slightly deep voice, with a slight Pennsylvanian accent. His accent gets a bit heavier when he becomes heated. I would prefer a Black/POC Voice Actor for this role.


THIS CHARACTER WILL BE YELLING/SCREAMING, SO PLEASE MAKE SURE TO VOICE THE LAST LINE WITH THAT IN MIND.

I don't need an exact impression of Earl Alexander's performance, but as close as impossible with the best audio quality will be the most likely to be chosen.

Character Information: Zoey is a college-aged girl who loves old horror movies. She's resilient, but still quite scared of the new surroundings related to the zombie apocalypse.


Voice Notes: Zoey has a mid-high voice, almost a younger, slight glottal fry. She also gives off a confident outward appearance even though she's often quite scared on the inside.


THIS CHARACTER WILL BE YELLING/SCREAMING, SO PLEASE MAKE SURE TO VOICE THE LAST LINE WITH THAT IN MIND.

  • female adult
  • Helpful

  • (Helping a teammate up, Concerned) "Okay. Okay, you're okay. I was worried there. Let's get you up on your feet.

  • (Dying, Yelling, Scared) "Oh my god! Oh my god! I'm not gonna last much longer!"

UNNAMED SOLDIER (SUPPORTING CHARACTER)
open
Paid: Flat Rate 20 USD

Character Information: This character is introduced, with his name, in a later episode. For now, we will refer to him as Unnamed Soldier. This character also has no official Voice Actor, as his presence is purely in the Comic. 


Voice Notes: I imagine this character as an older man. Likely someone higher brass in the military. Therefore, I would think his voice would be senior, deep, gruff and commanding. Maybe even a Southern accent, but not necessary if I like your audition.


A good interpretation of the voice as well as good, clear audio will be most likely to be chosen.

Language:
  • english
Voice description:
  • male adult
  • all american accents
  • male senior
  • general american southern
  • Commanding
  • military
Other info:
  • comic dubbing
  • (In command, Assertive) "Put your weapons on the floor of the vehicle. NOW."

  • (Warning, Assertive) "Put your weapons down. This is you LAST warning."

  • (Threatening, Assertive) "Anybody makes a break for it, that body gets shot. Welcome to Millhaven."
