Phoenix Squad
Project Overview
WELCOME
Welcome to Project Black Phoenix. This movie will be the first part of a trilogy of Grand Theft Auto 5 Rockstar Editor films. This project is a game mod. Everything is recorded in Grand Theft Auto Five.
WHAT IS THIS PROJECT ABOUT?
It is based off a man who after the death of a loved one goes into law enforcement to help the people of LA and to attempt to cure his vengeance. Markus Pearce (Protagonist) is caught in the middle of a terrorist attack and gets involved in something much bigger than he could have ever dreamed.
Do You Have Any Experience Or Previous Work To Show?
This is one of my first major projects but I have worked on some smaller promotional videos and school projects.

Deadline Pushed AGAIN
TO allow more people to audition, we are pushing the deadline to November 30th -
Once Deadline Has Passed... Will Not Be Completely Casted As of Now...
Just because the deadline has passed for this casting call DOES NOT MEAN the cast will be established as well. Our team will review every voice and select the best one we think fits the actor the best. EVERY PERSON WHO AUDITIONED WILL RECEIVE A PRIVATE MESSAGE DESPITE IF THEY HAVE BEEN CASTED OR NOT. -
Deadline Pushed Back Until November 17th
We have pushed back the deadline to November 17th to allow more voice actors to audition -
Character Images Fixed
Originally had placeholder images for the actors. Now that I have all of the images in the game, they have all been replaced!
Markus Pearce is an FBI agent who is investigating a known criminal who is part of the Mexican Cartel. He is the main protagonist of the story; he has a professional manner to him and sounds authoritative and confident. Though, he questions several aspects of his higher-ups. An independent thinker. He should sound like a young adult, confident, man.
Origins: Originally from New York City but after the death of his mother, he moved to Los Angeles, California.
Age: 25

That's the day my life changed forever. My mother's killer, Jeffery Thomason, was caught, tried, and found guilty. But, that fire that sparked that night had not extinguished. To honor my mother's memory, I needed to help others from living the same experience I had lived. Joining the police academy was the first step in a long journey.
This is the only area really that they could receive shipments. So I'm thinking we could ambush them by hiding behind those cars to the left there and those cars right next to the shipment area. Cody could stay up here to cover us.
What are we doing here exactly..?
Bridger is an FBI agent who is investigating a known criminal who is part of the Mexican Cartel. He is one of the lead roles in the film and a friendly and kind man. He is confident in his abilities and a strategic thinker.
He should sound like a well-mannered, professional, serious, young adult male.

FBI! EVERYONE PUT YOUR HANDS IN THE AIR!
What I mean is, are we really making a difference? Shouldn't we be going after the boss of these arms and drug deals and solve the root of the Problem?
Using civilian cars as a convoy. Interesting.
Reggie originated from the south and had a sort of distinct southern accent (not too much but it is there). He loves to make inappropriate jokes, and he is a little nasty, but he can be professional at times when something serious comes up in the Agency.
He should sound like an adult male who is cocky, inappropriate (in terms of manners and speech), with a slight southern accent (not too noticeable but it is there)
Alright so, you guys are going to be hitting this convoy in broad daylight, so we want this low key. In and out procedure. We'll be arming you guys with just light body armor and silenced pistols. We don't want to light the streets of Paleto Bay on fire; we want Sanchez. We got some undercover Agency vehicles in the Paleto Bay PD station so you guys could use to blend in.
It is best that you both get settled in and get some rest. We got a long day ahead of us tomorrow, and you'll need all the sleep you could get.
Ahhhh, the fresh, beautiful smell of carbine rifles ready to kill any mother fuckers they see.
Smart, intelligent, independent woman who is one of the assistant directors of the agency. She is a hacker and skilled and confident within herself.
She should sound young (but not like a child, a young adult). She is professional but sometimes quirky.

But, we did gather some other intel from our other sources. We have learned that Sanchez uses the location known as Humane Labs for his weapons Shipments.
Correct. We predict it to occur at tomorrow at this time. We'll bring you guys back to the Agency.
Reggie, what the hell? I told you not to say that to recruits after that last incident.
Cody is an agent and a sniper for The Agency, he is somewhat quiet and to himself but seems very shady.
He should sound cocky and smug but still professional in his way of speech.

Don't worry guys; I got a bird's eye view
Jackson, Markus, Bridger, I got something. A tightly packed line of civilian cars. About five of them. They're heading southbound on Route-1.
Jackson was previously military. He is strong and confident in himself and very serious. Easily angered if upset.
Jackson should sound like a young adult American man who is professional (due to his military background). He is a soldier.

Selina, what the hell happened? Where's Reggie?!
This is not our guy.
Runs the Mexican Cartel and the mafia in Los Santos. An orphan at a young age, bullied and abused. He has sought to show the people who have looked down on him that he is strong and better than them. Sanchez (though very unpredictable and could lash out on you at any given point that you upset him in the slightest) is very smart in his plans. Though he is arrogant and wants everything for himself. He has a very angry person.
He should sound like a middle-aged (around his young 40s) man who has a raspy threatening voice.
(In my personal opinion, this character should sound somewhat like Ricardo Diaz from Arrow Season 6 and 7)
I want your men searching this parking lot now!
THEN MOVE YOUR ASS OUT THERE!
Salvatorem. We have taken care of the FIB agents who were trying to uncover your plans.
Father of Markus Pearce. Caring and loving person like any other father.
He sounds like a middle-aged man, in his late 60s. He has a calm and soothing father-like voice.

It'll only be for a few minutes. C'mon son, let's get this over with
Mother of Markus Pearce. She sounds kind, gentle, and a lovely person. Very motherly like.

Uhh... oh, the shampoo too. We ran out last night.
A friend of Markus and Bridger. He is younger than them so he always more energy in his speech by he does have a hint of being a know-it-all young police officer.
He sounds like a young adult who is very very confident in himself and professional.

Agent Bridger! We have something!
(Will need the same voice actor for the rest of the trilogy): Salvatorem is a calm yet threatening character. He plans ahead and looks at the big picture. He is very crafty. (Note: Watch a video on Admiral Thrawn in rebels, that is best to describe his style). He observes everything and thinks heavily on his next words.
He has a SLIGHTLY raspy voice and he sounds mysterious yet strategic.
Yes, I need your assistance. Or rather, the assistance of your pawn. What's his name... Jack Cole? I need a judge dead. His name is Daniel Bakers. Him as well as the district attorney are getting too far into my affairs. I need them dead.
Sounds professional and intelligent in the way he conveys his message across the radio. NOTE: this character is NOT shown on screen.

Agent John, Agent Markus, Agent Bridger, Agent Chris, you guys are moving in on an arms deal that's taking place in the parking lot of Sisyphus Theatre. Expect heavy resistance. The Los Santos SWAT team will be assisting you guys in this takedown. Good luck.
They sound serious and professional. They are the higher-ups in the FBI.
open to having a range of voices
Well, they were top of their class. Markus from Yale, Bridger from Harvard.
Both were part of the Los Santos Police Department for 4 years before being promoted to FIB special agents. this would be their first year as FIB agents.
Sounds confident, young-adult male, just a police officer.

10-4! We got multiple 11-44s, need 10-52s on our 10-20 now!
Man down!
She sounds sweet, young, and kind

They are ready for you now!
Just a moment.
