The Drunken Ramblings of Vinyl Scratch - 4 VA's needed

[Tail Weave 20]

Quick note, this is from a post I made on Voice- Acting Proboards which you can find at http://voiceacting.proboards.com/thread/edit/30141

 

This is an audio play adaptation of the fan-fiction "The Drunken Ramblings of Vinyl Scratch" originally written by The Autumn Princess

The story goes, with her partner sick and tired of looking after her all the time, Vinyl is forced to try and make her own way home after a few too many drinks. Octavia wakes up to a slew of voicemail messages left by Vinyl, documenting most of the antics the DJ gets up to.

So, here are the characters:

Octavia

• Female
• Early 20's
• She speaks with a posh, Upper Class British accent, clearly and concisely.
• Her pitch isn't too important, and is more dependent on the VA than anything else, so get creative.

Vinyl Scratch

• Vinyl is the main character of the story, having been the one leaving all of the messages.
• Female
• Early 20's
• She speaks with an American accent and a rather low voice in my mind, but if you have a voice you think would suit her better, than go right ahead
• The attitude you want to give with Vinyl is "Party Animal." She's someone who likes to have fun, and is normally pretty laid back about most things. Keep in mind that throughout the story, she is also incredibly drunk, and gets progressively drunker as the night goes on. Have fun with her

Neon Lights

• Male
• Early 20's
• American Accent
• Like Vinyl, Neon is also very drunk when he speaks, though in general he has a very relaxed attitude, and has a tendency to be easily distracted.

Pinkie Pie

• Female
• Early 20's
• American accent
• She speaks with a VERY high pitched voice, and a rather fast speed. Chances are I may end up using audio software to speed up your voice for one of her segments, but we'll see how things go.

Audition Lines

Octavia

• (Tired, having been just woken up by a phone) - “What is it Vinyl”
• (Having just hung up the phone) - "You can make your own way home. I’ve got rehearsal in the morning"

Vinyl Scratch

• (On the phone, and slightly drunk) - "Taaavi, where are you? I’m cold, and drunk, and I don’t know where I left my keys. Plus, some asshole stole my glasses. Wait, that makes me sound like some kind of nerd in high school. Forget I said that, just pick me up, I wanna go home."
• "Taaviiii, it’s laaate. Where (hic) are you? I‘ve been waiting for hours. I wanna go home, come and get me."

Neon Lights

• (Drunk) - "Hey, who is this? Oh, Tavi? Yeah, Vinyl, I dunno what to do."
• (Loud and high pitched) - "Whoooooo!"

Pinkie Pie

• (High pitched and incredibly fast) - "Hi Miss Vinyl’s girlfriend. We’re gonna write a song! It’s gonna be a bestseller, number one on all the charts! We’re going into this other bar about three blocks down from where we were before. Come get us and your beautiful voice can be number one too!"

I'm actively looking for VA's for future projects as well, as I'm looking to make these adaptations on a regular basis. Hope to hear from you

I'm not looking for show accuracy, so even if you think you can't do a Pinkie or Octavia impression spot on from the show, it doesn't matter. Give it a go anyway.

I'm kinda shy, but maybe I could try some of this? .3.

I'd love to do Octavia and I'm British With a posh upper-class hint to it. I would have been perfect for her
