The Obsidian Archives
Greetings curator. I am Samuel Wilkinson. Welcome to the Obsidian Archives. This is an Animatic / Audio Drama, about the birth of an evil empire and the secrets they keep between the texts of their tomes. We are at a point in development where we can open roles to the public to help this indie story project come alive. If you want an easier time understanding this project, I recommend you take a look at our Pitch Bible & YouTube Channel.

What is it about?
Effectively this is a dark high fantasy following a down trodden Prince and his Imp colleague. They go through the trials and tribulations of Kingdom making amongst a divided people and the atrocities that come with it. Effectively a tale of betrayal and vengeance; with a hint of sarcasm.
Voice Roles Wanted!
Currently we are now working on The Desert Arc, semi-related to the Mexican Revolution.
What we will need is people capable of creating either
American Soldiers
German Officers
Richard Nixon Impressions
The formats should be uploaded as WAV and 48khz or higher. Processing is optional.
*Rates are to be negotiated between the VA and Director. Any prices written on the roles are not final but very rough estimates. Icons are just used to cover archetypes and are not final character designs.
Artists
So this is one of the most important roles for the production. There are two kinds of artist roles.
Animatic Slide Artists will create rough black and white grayscale images in bulk. The work will be delivered in PSD format so the director can color in the work to maximize quality. The rates are to be negotiated.
Emblem / Painting Artists are tasked with creating grandiose paintings that signify turning points within the history of Obsidia capturing the holy biblical scale of the events that unfold.
What to expect?
Once selected you will be greeted by myself in discord and interviewed on job brief and price negotiations. You will also be invited to the project discord to meet other people working on the project.
Deadlines are lax but there might be moments in production where the director may check up on you and see progress.
You are an alt-history version of Richard Nixon. You are an anthro dog president with big sloppy jowls. You have to tell your country that you have suffered an embarrassing defeat.
My fellow Americans. It saddens me to reveal we have lost the fortress of pentiagro.
I am not a Crook! I mean look at me, I'm a good boy!
(Say any memorable Richard Nixon quote)
You are a mother who is about to lose who child to the state. This is for a gritty dark analog horror video with realistic distorted sounds. The goal is to sound real and candid as possible.
Nooooo! My baby, don't take my baby!
You savages! I won't let you! *Cries*
(Practice screams and cries)
You are a serious wise old sage character, in charge of a cult of technocrats. You are cunning ambisious and dismissive of casualties, blinded by greatness. somewhere between 50-60 years old. You are from a middle eastern setting but you can try for some more generic wise leader voices as long as it has depth and texture.
Bothers, these blind zealots wish to see us return to a darker age. But they will soon learn that once the lamp is rubbed, the genie doesn't return.
Damn it, where did that blasted sage run off to?
Eeeep, a vampire! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh.
You are an American POW, trapped in an Obsidian Prison being interrogated. Think WW2 war hero just doing his job. The ending is where you scream like your head is being torn open. Think every distorted creepypasta you can think of.
You fascist dogs! I'll never talk to the likes of you. Your emperor can get bent!
I serve lady liberty and all her people.
*Scream realisticly like you are being hurt* (Go real, go loud, go guttural. Think creepypasta.)
Since this is a fantasy setting your country is called Obsidia, but it is effectively WW2 Germany. Feel free to really cheese up the accent in German. Think every WW2 movie you seen.
You are in your 40s, you are proper but slimy.
Don't you worry boy. We have other ways of making you talk!
Papers please. Which do you chose?
(Speak random German)
