Looking for Voice Actress for YouTube Short Animation [PAID]
Project Overview
The Project
Note: This project involves NFTs.
The project (Onigiri Reports / Onigiri News) is a series of short and simple animations in anime style with a female character named Onigirl talking to the audience in a “newsroom” setting. She will be talking about several things including but not limited to, my art, giveaways, FAQs, AMA and so on. The purpose of these videos is to bring news to my fans in a fun and interactive way. The project will start with one pilot episode and depending on how well that does, there may be more episodes. I like this to be a long running series.
Each video is estimated to be at least 2-4 minutes long with an rough estimate of 6-9 lines per minute. For the first episode, I’d like to have it at least 3-4 minutes. These videos will be uploaded to YouTube and linked on Twitter. Both accounts are not monetized.
Pay Rate/ Payment /Credits
I’m looking to pay $2 per line. If you have other rates or price packages, you may tell me about them. Payment will be given via PayPal or Venmo (US only). Credits will be given at the end of each episode.

Onigiri Character Intro
Onigiri is a young adult Japanese Demon (Oni) character in a tiny form body. Due to her small size, she has a childish voice. She also has a true form, but I won’t be needing voices for that. Attached is an illustration I have done for her and further down below are some basic character info.
Note: Due to the nature of Onigiri, this role may involve her cursing, saying offensive and/or dirty things at other fictional characters and even the audience. Nothing said will be racist or discriminating. This is not an 18+ project. You should be okay with this.

Basic Info
Name: Onigiri
Gender: Female
Sexuality: Straight
Nationality/Race: Japan/Oni
Age (small form): 18
Actual age: 100+
Height: Around 5 feet, possibly shorter (undecided)
Residence: Japan
Likes: Eating, sleeping, Japanese scenery
Hates: Perfume, swimming and many other weird human things
Personality: Rowdy and can be a bit rude (speaks her mind). Impatient and easily annoyed. Can be dishonest sometimes. Also, can be shy and get embarrassed easily if compliments are made towards her. Despite her aggressive behavior, she deeply cares about her friends.
Audition Lines and Process
The voice I’m aiming for is something similar to the dub of Liliruca Arde from the anime “Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon?” Below is a link to the video of some of her scenes. She is the brown-haired fox looking girl.

Notice her voice is childish and cute, but has some aggressiveness and roughness to it. It kind of sounds “feral” in a way. This is more noticeable when she’s screaming, angry or in an argument with the other characters. In your demo, I want you to try to imitate these characteristics.
(Excited)
Hello everyone! I’m Onigiri. I’ll be your host for today!
(Annoyed and moderately angry)
Leave me the hell alone! Can't you see I’m trying to eat here? This is my show! Go away Hanabi! You cowtits!
