Plot: "The Knight and the Princess" is a short film about a princess named Dahlia who has recently finished her classic fairy tale of being imprisoned by a wicked enchantress and rescued by a noble prince by the name of Alfonso. But when she tells her feelings to Alfonso, she finds herself rejected by him only due to him being attracted to males. Feeling bad for Dahlia, Alfonso introduces her to his best friend, Sir Raymond.
What I Need: There are various things going into this project. The biggest being passion. But I can't do everything myself. I'll need help. I will need:
Talented Voice Actors: I need voice actors to bring the few characters in this animation to life.
Character Designers: I need character designers to design the characters I have in mind.
Storyboard Artists: I need some storyboard artists to storyboard the short film.
Background Artists: I need background artists to draw beautiful vibrant backgrounds for the animation.
Animators: I need various animators for various animator positions.
Musical Composer: I need a musical composer to compose the score for the short film!
Foley Artist: I need a foley artist to create the different sounds of stuff like magic, footsteps, and other sound effects!
The Scope of the Project: The length of the project is in between 10-15 minutes long and will be posted on my YouTube channel.
Requirements:
-MUST have Discord!
-MUST have prior experience in whatever field you are applying for!
-MUST be nice to other people on the project!
So I have cast all the voice actors in the roles for this project! I do need to figure some things out about the character designers, as I have my eye on two character designers who would work for the project incredibly well. But for everyone who didn't get a role, keep up the good work and I will definitely keep everyone in mind for future projects!
I speak to everyone who auditioned for this project when I say thank you! The talent I see here is absolutely incredible and let me tell you, nobody made it easy for me to make a decision regarding this project! But I am finally narrowing it down to who I believe would be the best for each role! Just know that if I could, I would cast all of you, as you all did a great job!
Personality: Princess Dahlia is an incredibly naive, childlike girl. Despite this, she's also very sweet, kind, innocent, and loving. She tries to encourage anyone who wants to do something that scares them, but always has trouble having confidence herself. She's the very classic, typical, dainty princess that is straight out of an old school fairy tale.
Voice: Dahlia's voice is very sweet, kind, and innocent. She's very soft spoken when trying to do something for herself, but also very empowering and inspiring when helping someone else figure out their problems.
(trying to build her confidence) He rescued me from the evil enchantress, Dominia(Doe-min-yuh)... Surely that must mean he likes me too, right?
(feeling rejected) But... it's like the classic fairy tale...! A damsel in distress imprisoned by evil and rescued by a handsome prince like you!
Thank you, Prince Alfonso! You're my hero!
Personality: Prince Alfonso is a noble, kind prince who does everything in his power to protect the realm from evil. So when he hears of the abduction of Princess Dahlia, he immediately leaps into action to rescue her. Unlike the typical dashing prince, though, he's gay.
Voice: Alfonso has a very typical, dreamlike voice like from a classic Disney fairy tale. His voice is wrought with bravery and seriousness, but also softness and kindness.
(confrontational) You wicked enchantress! You will rue the day you kidnapped Princess Dahlia!
(downcast) I- I'm sorry, princess, but... as pretty as you are, I'm... not attracted to girls.
(in noble manner) If ever you need me, princess, come find me and I'll be there!
Personality: King Brandor is a benevolent king who respects any man who he considers honorable. And anyone he finds honorable, he always tries to support in his best way. So when both Princess Dahlia and Prince Alfonso come to him looking for advice, he is more than happy to impart his wisdom onto the two children.
Voice: King Brandor's voice must be very elderly and strong, but also fatherlike and kind.
(heartily) Ha ha ha ha ha! Anything for the brave young man who rescued my daughter without even seeking a reward!
(serious) You will never know what Prince Alfonso thinks unless you take the step to talk to him, my dear daughter.
Personality: Dominia is a villainess who only appears in flash backs, as by the time the events of the story take place, she has already been defeated. However when she does appear, she's like Ursula from The Little Mermaid. In that she relishes and soaks up every single evil thing in her body. She so enjoys being wicked and nasty and lets everybody know it.
Voice: Her voice must be very dignified and noble, but wicked, loud, and boisterous. Think a mix of Ursula from The Little Mermaid and Cersei Lannister from Game of Thrones.
With Princess Dahlia in my clutches, I will soon rule her kingdom and end her previous father's life!
Stand back, you fools! *evil laugh*
You must pry the princess from my cold dead fingers if you wish to rescue her!
Personality: Sir Raymond is a respectful man who likes Princess Dahlia. He's close friends with Prince Alfonso, but doesn't have feelings for him. He shows up only at the end when Alfonso wants to try to hook up Dahlia on a date.
Voice: His voice is just like a plain old teenager. Not much to it outside of the Scottish accent. He's rather bubbly when speaking.
Hello, Princess! Hope you're having a pleasant day today!
Thanks for introducing me, Prince Alfonso! She's quite the pretty one!
The character designer is in charge of designing the characters according to my vision. The art style must be charmingly simplistic with smooth lines and pretty colors.
