"THE T" VOICE ACTORS NEEDED! CASTING CALL!

Posted by AlmightyHans - November 8th, 2009


*EDIT* I just polished up the script a bit more. I CUT OUT THE GRAVE DIGGER CHARACTER AND CHANGED THE FORENSICS GUY*

I have just finished the first draft of the script for Episode one in "The T". I am holding details on the story for the sake of surprise. But i will mention that it is a Noir, Comedy. It consists a lot of action/adventure, and mystery.

I have animated an Intro for the series which you can see below. (the credits might change depending on how casting goes.)

[note: since this has the old gangster film feel, new yorker/chicago/big city accents like italian and stuff is encouraged, but not necessary]

CHARACTERS

THE T
-Turk (Arin Hanson)
Eccentric, extrovert, passionate. Serves as a pseudo-leader figure in the team of three.

-Todd (Hans Van Harken)
Introvert, observer, man of few words. When he does speak out, it's pretty well thought out.

-Tony (Joshua Tomar)
Understanding, older, experienced caring. Sometimes can be kind of mellow dramatic. Jewish.

OTHER CHARACTERS
-Gritt (Christopher A. Guerrero)
Bitter, quiet, old, and reserved. Works at police station with a boring job behind a desk. Wishes he could actually help fight crime. Secretly thankful for The T for asking him to help them. in his late 50's

-Jeffrey Walther [killer]
Rich, handsome, charming, and schizophrenic. in his mid 30's

-Woman [victim] (Kimlinh Tran)
She'll be drunk in her scenes. Charmed by Jeffrey. Classy, but a bit bubbly and happy for hooking up with handsome Jeffrey Walther. (she will be a victim of murder so lots of screaming and struggling involved)

-Police officer 1
Complains, melancholy, friends with police officer 2. handles normal police work. in his 20's

-Police officer 2 (Jonas Boda)
questions his friendship with officer 1. seems to be constantly fed up with him. but appears to take pleasure out of it. in his 20's

-Waitress
suffering mid life crisis. has trouble convincing herself her life is good. working at a crappy hole in the wall diner. not too pretty. but humble none the less. occasionally is reminded of her shitty life.

-News Reporter (Deven Mac)
basic nasal sounding news reporter voice of the 1920's-1950's

-Crime Scene Investigator (Deven Mac)
Young, definitely big city accent. He should have an energy to his voice. normal pitch. not too low or high.

-Danny Beretta (Jeff Bandalin)
Police Sgt. Orn and torn from the rough job of police work. Feels hopeless because of seeing so many criminals get away with thei crimes in his life. Bitter, but still smart and sensible and an overall good cop. in his late 30's

as for lines, you can go ahead and make up any improve short reels for whatever characters your interested. Even though i have names of people who are planned to do the certain voices. don't feel hesitant to send me some trials. Just know that i'm pretty sure I'm going to stick to those voice actors.

please send these voice clips to me by private messaging on NG. title your message "THE T casting call" in the message write your name, newgrounds account, and/or contact info. and please describe IN your voice clip the name of the character your doing before the actual lines.

I WILL UPDATE THIS POST, ANY FURTHER QUESTIONS PLEASE COMMENT! :D

Sounds good admiral.

I'm on the case.

no way. i used to live in brownsville!

Top notch stuff, Guv'na.

Can't wait man! B)

I love the animating style. It just seems so much more...Unique

Can I try out for Police Officer 1, has, I've really gotten into voice acting lately, hit me up on AIM or somethin :)

I'm interested in doing Jeffrey Walther. I'll send you a clip later!

Bawww I thought I was Gritt.

Sounds Good. Can't wait for it looking at the animation. Also I recommend <a href="http://fornoreason.newgrounds.com/">http://fornoreason.newgrounds.com/</a> that guy.

Ironic. I hear Arin used to be part of the Turks. But they kicked him out.

It kinda reminds me of the old 'Inspector' cartoon from the Pink Panther show.
So I'm expecting lots of laughs.

I like the approach but I feel the music score for the intro is just a notch short of being fantastic.

You gonna add inspiration from Cole Porter, John Coltrane, or Miles Davis music to keep it more on the old-school feel.

Youtube those artists and you'll see what I mean. Can you listen and just imagine the car chases, the calm nights in an investigation, the swinging groves of the night clubs and the pretty ladies?

I look forward to this really great cartoon series.

i know those artists. I wanted the intro to have a seperate, slightly more up beat feel to it to contrast the more dark tones of the actual cartoon. this intro will play after the prolog/inciting incident of the story, which is usually something very grim. i thought if something more ironically jolly sounding would follow it'd add to that contrast and make whatever just happened feel more intense.

I call dibs on the forensics guy!

Also, how do we send you a sample via NG PM? Uploading website links? Audio portal?

however you can do it.

let me try please

go ahead

hans i'd love to audition for police officer 2, but i can only do him with an australian accent, are you open to that?

hmmm. Actually. I might just save the australian accent for something later on ;)

A grimacing introduction to each episode followed by a catchy up-beat.

Kinda like the intro to "Monk", good approach.

Though don't cha think you can add some lyrics to the song? I know it'll be more memorable with some catchy lyrics.

Ahh, why do I even have to suggest that, I'm sure you'll work on that eventually

^_^

The T's will be quite the Trio of super sleuths.
Will they be color coordinated? Or is that 'too' cartoony?

~Guns a capin' And the crowd be clappin'
~To the jazzy beats down hero's street.
~When crimes'-a-near, the T's will be here!

dude. just wait and see how it turns out :P

i'm sending my audition anyway

PS: i am happy to rewrite the script to make it an all-australian experience, call me

dude. pm me your msn or aim or whatever you use. i've been wanting to talk to you.

yo i got dibs on danny beretta

give me a line or two from this guy -->Crime Scene Investigator
and ill see what i can do

l8s

INVESTIGATOR

Yup, all over the neck...but check this out Danny...

INVESTIGATOR

No finger prints on this... It was found in the dirt down there.

that or ill just make up a couple of lines =P

l8s

I smiled at the intro. I can't think of what it reminds me of, but that's besides the point.

Although I suck at improv, I will totally try and audition for the female roles. Yay for screaming roles!

i'll pm you a few lines.
