Hi there! Thank you so much for reading about my project! I'm Illusioncanthurtme, an artist and animator. Please take a look at some of my animations! You can see them on my youtube channel, as well as my most recent animation on the GameGrumps channel. I've been on an animation hiatus for a little while, and I'm looking forward to starting my next project. I'm excited to make something to express the love I have for my favorite cartoons. Gaobam, Invader Zim, and Gravity Falls are basically my superwholock!
This animation will feature my older designs for Dipper, Dib, and Billy, each of them in their mid 20s. In my head, I like to call them "the loserboys." They are all geeky and pathetic, in their own way. They go on paranormal adventures, or equally as often, mundane misadventures. They are a very ragtag trio of friends, and I'm super excited to write and animate some shenanigans for them!
The title I put on this project is moreso a placeholder for this casting call. I'm not making a giant animated series or anything, I'm just using these characters to exercise my animation muscles, and to make a couple silly videos! I'm planning on making two animations that feature these characters, but for now my focus is on the first one, which I'll be using to get my animation sea legs again. This will be something short and silly with the three boys, maybe one to two minutes long, which will explore their personalities together. Content wise, it will be them in a fast food drive through, Dipper bickering with the other two. When this is finished, the next animation will be a "found footage" style video, where the three are ghost hunting. I may include some lines from this idea in the auditions, for variation!
Although this is technically a "fan" project, I don't want anyone to feel discouraged if they aren't familiar with the source material. I'm 100% okay with creative interpretation, especially since these are versions of the characters that I've tampered with.
For submissions: the audio must be high quality and clear, with no background noise, static, etc.
The pay is pretty low for this project because the first animation will be short, and each character will only have about five lines. For future animations with these characters, there will be more pay - the $15 is just for this short animation. I wish I could pay more right now, even if this is short, but I'm a tad bit poor. I'm honestly just happy for the opportunity to pay someone for their lines at all.
CCC is telling me to make the deadline short, and lengthen the deadline if need be. I'd like everyone who's interested in auditioning to have their chance, so I may lengthen the deadline a few times!
THANK YOU FOR READING ALL THIS!!! I really hope you audition!! I look forward to hearing yours!
