Tall Tavern Tales (a Youtube D&D Animatic Series!)

Project Overview

Greetings lovers of D&D and other story wonders,

Have you ever been part of a roleplay experience that was so awesome, glorious, funny, and emotional that you thought: ''This should be animated!''. Well, we have. 

Presenting our newest project: Tall Tavern Tales (a Youtube D&D Animatic Series!)

We have gathered a crew of talented people for animation, editing, writing, directing, etc. All we need is you, voice actors!


What we are looking for:

- Passion. People who want to be part of an epic character-driven story.

- Commitment. This will be a long-term project. At least a year. And should we choose to make a 2nd season, we would love to have you reprise your role.

- Teamwork. You will be working with a voice director who will guide you through each scene. We need you to be able to bring our vision to life.

- Creativity. Though we have a script for you to follow, we also create on the spot. Improv is welcome!

- Humor. Though this project will tell a serious and epic story. There will be a lot of jokes. We would like for you to be able to deliver those.

- Joy. We do this for the love of creating something amazing. Be fun to work with. And enjoy the journey with us!


Audition rules:

You can audition for each character with 1 file. Record all lines in 1 audio track (per character). You are allowed (and encouraged) to record up to 2 variations of each line. We want to see your range.

Help us to reach you. Put your email and discord info with your audition.

Have fun with it! We are VERY passionate, and we want to see that in our actors as well. 

Make sure your recording is clear with no background noise. We assume the quality of your audition sound will be the same quality you can give us if we work with you.

Check the audition volume. We get a lot of very quiet auditions. Pump that volume up! :D


Keep an eye on this post because more roles will appear over time.

If you want to follow this project, we would love to see you join us on Instagram and Twitter to stay up to date!

We are completely blown away by the response we've been getting from all of you. There is so much talent out there. I want to thank each and every one of you who auditioned for their favorite role(s). But sadly we can only cast 1 person for each role. If you did not get cast for your favorite role, keep an eye on this post. Because more roles will become availble over time. 


The roles we have filled now are:

- Valonar.

- Jesse.

- Alyssia.

- Rebecca

- Sergeant Dell

- Marcus


We look forward to working with our future voice actors. Go for it!

  • Just a little more time.

    Smaller update this time. We are pushing back the deadline for this project a bit more. We are getting close to casting the final few roles. But we are still getting dozens of auditions every day. Because of that, we want to give those who just discovered us the chance to audition for their favorite roles. Also, we would LOVE to connect with you all on Twitter (@talltaverntales) AND Instagram (www.instagram.com/talltaverntalesofficial). We are showing more and more art on Instagram and have just released the first character/voice actor reveal. Come hang out us with there! Enjoy your day! VictorS.

  • D&D Animatic Series new roles and more!

    Good day, all you beautiful wonderful voice actors, First, we would like to thank each and every one of you for your amazing auditions. We did not expect this thing to get so much attention- and from so many talented people to boot! Keep up the amazing work you do! We have some news! The project is now officially called: Tall Tavern Tales. And for those of you who forgot or did not know: It is a D&D-inspired Animatic series on youtube that will tell the story of a writer, who is recording the heroic stories of a group of adventurers, in the hopes of learning how to become a hero himself. Our team has been working tirelessly for the last few months on animation, writing, sound design, etc. And it shows. But we also want to show it to you all. That's why we are happy to announce that as of today, we have launched our social media accounts! Twitter: @talltaverntales Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/talltaverntalesofficial On Twitter, we will mostly have casting updates and news. On Instagram we will post World and character art, character reveals, updates, and a short story with the main character that will be his intro to the main story! (we are very hyped about this!) Come and follow us there, and share it with all your D&D friends! Next, let us talk casting. We are still going through all your auditions to find the right fit for our quirky and beloved characters. We are also still considering people who auditioned over a month ago. Just because we have not responded to you, does not mean we are not considering you. We just never expected to get over 1400 auditions in a month a and half. No worries! Though our casting crew is still figuring out the existing roles, our animation team has finished the designs of some new ones, and they are on CCC RIGHT NOW. We look forward to being blown away by your talent again! It has already been said, but we want to thank all of you again for the amazing response. We have a big dream for this project and to make that dream real, we need talented people like you to give it its voice. You are loved and appreciated. Keep up the good work!! Greetz, Victor and the TTT team.

Looking for a middle to deep voice. a bit raspy. Needs to sound threatening but still human.

American or Britsh accent

  • (scoffing laugh)

    Mwah. I was wondering who they would send? Were there no more innocent people for you to sacrifice? Or does the great Marcus the kind finally fight his own battles!?

  • (as if speaking to a large crowd around him) 

    So it IS true! The man of mercy comes to finish what he started! What...was killing my teacher not enough for you? And poor Celeste...(voice breaks as he tries to hold back tears. Then speaks more softly) Was the death of my wife not enough for you?

  • (interrupts someone trying to explain himself)

    ...Oh don't you dare speak to me about fate. You lied to us. You promised purpose and life and you LIED TO US! (forces himself to calm down) But it matters not. You see...we no longer need your God anymore. We no longer need YOU anymore.

    (quiet and sinister) See my old friend? We no longer need anyone anymore. We have everything we want.

Looking for a middle age deep voice. One that commands respect and shows strength and leadership.

  • (contemplative)

    ''Marcus the kind. That is what they used to call me. But what does kindness truly mean? What does it look like? ''

Nandipha is the high priestess of the temple. She has a big heart and deep compassion for people. She is kind of like the city's (grand)mother. Full of wisdom and knowledge, she both helps and reprimands our heroes when needed.

For this character, we need a warm, old-sounding, softspoken grandmotherly voice. We seek an African accent. Something close to the Wakandan accent from Black Panther.

  • (Calm, soothing)

    I have walked this world for many years child. I have never met a creature that was out of redemption's reach

  • (reprimanding)

    Sheathe your weapon BOY! This temple is a place of peace and safety. Each creature that enters alive and well, will leave this place alive and well. Am I understood?!

  • (Teaching and inspiring)

    My dear, BE the change you want to see! People need an example. You can try to teach what you know, but ultimately you are going to reproduce what you are.

Kerato is a LARGE minotaur. He is ''the muscle'' for Tychus, ready to split any skulls or break any bones. Basically a big boy with a big axe.

For this character, we need a DEEP LOW voice. Feel free to play around with accents. We are not set on one right now.

  • (Calm and threatening)

    The last time someone threw a rock at me, I made them eat that rock...literally.

  • (Excited by the thrill of battle...then Frustrated)

    When I'm done with you, they won't be able to put what's left of you back together and... What do you mean go back?! I haven't crushed their skulls yet!

Sergeant Dell is Captain Rebecca's right-hand man. He follows her orders, but also steps in with ''friendly suggestions'' when Rebecca is too tough on her men...or anyone. He is a well-learned man who, inspite of his fancy foreign education, prefers the life of a soldier. He is brave and loyal and well-spoken.

  • (after his boss just yelled at some people)

    What my well-intentioned captain is trying to convey, is that we are thankful for your assistance and that you will be rewarded fairly, considering the gravity of the situation and the depth of your bravery.

  • (Shouting to the soldiers right before a battle)

    You heard the captain men! Let us march at a pace that is quick yet sustainable! Let us exclaim words of passion and roars of defiance! Let us move forward in a matter that will inspire fear in the hearts of our enemies!

  • (after all the soldiers look at him confused)

    I mean CHARGE!!
