[COMPOSER NEEDED] You're Electrifying, Lovebug! - ANIMATED THESIS FILM
DannySpillerVA for Palmtop
[LEAD ROLE] ~80 words/9 lines
Includes shouting, grunts/sfx, possible screaming.
A TV-headed robot trying to adapt to an independent lifestyle in a society re-embracing postmodern retro-90's culture. He’s currently living with Check, his roommate who takes care of most of the responsibilities around the place, but Palmtop is determined to prove himself useful. Being a bit hollow-headed and clumsy, he struggles to find himself reliable. He makes up for this in positivity, kindness and sheer willpower. Though he's desperate for love, his naivety leads him awry as Check struggles to confess his own feelings.
Palmtop is energetic and enthusiastic. He has a bubbly voice that can get a bit whiny sometimes. Masculine, from teen to young-adult vocal range. Not necessarily high-pitched, but animated, expressive and natural.
