Sonic the HEDHUG (English dub)
Project Overview
This is the project on translating and dubbing 'Sonic the HEDHUG' animated series into English.
SONIC THE HEDHUG is a huge fan-made project that includes many different creations, including web series, full-length movies, comics, books, and even games (in progress) produced by ViruSSofT Company.
Right now, we focus on the main product - the sprite animated series. Since its pilot in 2010 when it was a small parody, it grew into a large project with a quality storyline and animation. We're looking for voice actors to fill in the roles of our characters - most of them are known to you, but some are new and original.
REQUIREMENTS:
-equipment allowing the adequate recording result;
-as of now, the animated series has two complete seasons, the third one in progress, and also includes full-length movies and several special episodes. For leading roles, the amount of work will be huge, and the project is planned to keep on going for many years into the future. We expect your very long-term cooperation;
-in the beginning, while dub is catching up to the actual series, workflow is going to be pretty free, but after that, we release new episodes roughly once per 4-5 months, so we need your voice somewhere near that time.
Obviously, we recommend firstly to take a look at what the series actually is. The whole season 1 and most part of season 2 have english subtitles.

Our main hero Sonic the Hedgehog himself. Young and careless, free and fearless. You all know him, and our Sonic is basically the same as his original interpretation, just a bit more reckless, cringy, and psychologically devastated by Amy.
As for the voice itself, we look for something close to one of Sonic's official English voices since Ryan Drummond (1998):
- english
- male teen
- animation/character
- male young adult
***deep breath in*** “I smell the big adventure ahead of us. What do you think, Tails?
“There you are, Egg-head! What happened? Spilled some oil from the fear?
Uh-oh… I didn’t know you are here, Amy… I… I think I have left a pot boiling at my home. Gotta go!!!
B.U.M.M.E.R. is Dr.Eggmans First Assistant. He is a lazy robot that regularly teases and pulls jokes on his creator and sometimes even plays as the voice of reason. But he is a very capable villain by himself, too.
Make a note that he is not a regular robot, but a top-notch AI, the so-called 'Enhanced Rationale'. That means, he can and does emulate emotions of all kinds.

Captain, we have a problem! The Hellish Trinity is killing farmer robots again! (a little bit worried)
Oh yeah, a GREAT plan, Cap! You DEFINITELY can use Orbital Ion Cannons just to kill a fly, nothing bad will happen! (sarsasm)
Ah-ha-ha, we meet again, Hellish Trinity! Cap is busy with his new evil plan, so I will have to play with you for a while... (villainy)
The God of Destruction from Sonic Adventure. The embodiment of doom and death. In the originals, Chaos does not speak but our version of Chaos is smarter and even more dangerous.
Chaos should sound like your average chaotic/demonic entity.

You will fall... Just like all your hopes and dreams...
Do you really want to know the truth... Truth... will destroy you...
This world is mine... There is no place! In it! FOR INSECTS LIKE YOU!!!
Just as the Chaos, Time Eater in our representation is capable of speaking, thinking and playing a villain role on his own. Make him sound as close as possible to an average chaotic/eldritch entity, but more aggravated.

Time... DEVOURS EVERYTHING!
I will create a new world... Free from the old chains!
Finally, I found you... SONIC. THE. HEDGEHOG.
The robot firstly appeared in Sonic Heroes. In our universe, Omega plays a role of mysterious robot that helps Shadow on his way to find the truth about himself.
Make our Omega as close as possible to his original variants:

Shadow. This is the wrong way to go. You should go over there.
Eggman's robots detected. Initiating 'kick ass mode'.
Finally, I found you. Eggman's lowly servant. Prepare to be destroyed!
Rouge is the femme fatale of Sonic Universe. Our version of Rouge was a close friend of Amy even before Sonic Prime. She is dangerous, cunning, and extremely smart to trick everyone into doing her bidding.
Let's keep the voice close to her original English variants

Keep in mind that our Rouge is... unique. She actually doesn't talk much because lore reasons, and right no has very few lines. But in the future this is going to change, and we will need you once more.

Ah, you are here! Good for you. Now... Where's my treasure?
Uh-hu-hu... The treasure is all mine!
Well-well-well... Looks who is here... The Hellish Trinity! You are late, and the stone is already mine!
In the series that focuses on heroes fighting robots, there are quite a few random robotic characters that appear for one scene or so. They do not require anything special in the voice, so... everything goes!

Intruders detected. Get. Out. Of. My. Base.
Limits unlocked. Power output maximum. You're dead, Sonic the hedgehog!
System malfunction detected. Initiating clear procedure. Please wait. Please wait. Pleas^*% wa^* (glitches)
Well, this character sounds exactly as you would think. Deep male voice full of wisdom and intelligence.

Welcome to the Purgatory. Here, we will decide what to do with your sins, my child...
That DOES count as a sin! And that too! Yes, that too! (irritated)
No, you cannot return! And no, missing a TV show is not a reason for resurrection!
Tikal is the rare recurring in the series, closely connected to the story of Chais. The is a young girl with a lot of responsibilities over the world.
Here's the original voice sample for her:

This is Chaos, the God of Destruction. And I am his guardian. (calmly and warmly)
I thank you, brave heroes. You saved the world. (appreciative)
Um... I... don't think it's possible. I am but a merely ghost... (confused)
