Yes, here we have another casting call for a stop motion movie. The title of this stop motion is Transformers: 2025. The plot involves a squadron of Autobots being sent to a post-apocalyptic Earth to take down a rogue group of Decepticons. So onto the characters. Characters that already have a voice: Fixit Banzai-Tron Brutus A Femmebot Megatron Characters that need a voice (The ones you'll be auditioning for): Autobots: (As of now) Dai Atlas - Strong, rough around the edges, Elite Guard officer/drill sergeant. For this character I want a gravelly voice. Grapple - Sorrow Six Star Overdrive - Punk, Hot Shot like. Cosmos - Sorrow Six Star Optimus Prime - CrypticIllusionist Sentinel Minor - Animated Sentinel Prime Decepticons: (As of now) Stockade Dirge Astrotrain Archforce (Archforce - Transformers Wiki) Lines for the listed characters have been added throughout thread.
I am interested in Dai Atlas and the Optimus Prime guest appearance. Do you have anything specific in mind for those characters to say that I could audition with? I can give it a shot either way, just curious. Also, am I correct to assume the 'Dai' in Dai Atlas is pronounced like the word 'die'?
Yeah, episode one's script is complete so I have lines for all Autobots. The 'Cons don't appear until the second episode which I'm still writing. Sample lines for all Autobots: Dai Atlas: "As I've said before, no. Besides it's none of your business." "I can tell you're a punk already." Optimus Prime: "The other two have already been informed and are preparing your ship." "Which makes it an ideal place for the Decepticons to set up their base of operation." Overdrive: (Listening to some rock song) "Oh yeah, this song is kickin'." "Earth? Wasn't that planet destroyed years ago?" Grapple: "Can you hand me that wrench up there?" "Excellent, now we've got a ship that can fly." Cosmos: "We should arrive at Earth in about three megacycles." "What is there to say? They know who I am." Sentinel Minor: "Any idea why my brother wants to meet with you?" "Do you know I can court-matrial you for this?" Yep.
I want to try some cons too they just don't come as naturally if you would please PM me your email! YouTube - movie 0001‎
Well, after listening to Sorrow Six Star, I've opted not to audition for Dai Atlas as his take on it, I ensure you, is better than how I was planning to do it...that and I only just now noticed the "drill sergeant" bit and I had perceived a tone a bit too quiet for that. In any case, I've made up my audition for Optimus Prime's appearance. YouTube - OptimusPrime2025Audition.wmv‎
you're not trying out because you thought mine was bad? shouldn't that be reason TO do it? I agree that I am not the best at low and gravely. but... your comment reminds me of my friend he calls it honest I call it rude. if didn't like your Optimus voice I sure wouldn't tell you mine was better on a public forum without backing it up. (this is actually not the case it is pretty decent I have heard better and much worse my optimus voice is AWFUL) now I am not mad... just confused. you know the old saying about what to do if you can't say something nice? right?
Whoops, total error in my post, sorry. I thought yours was better. "his" should've been "my". EDIT: Well, that didn't make sense either come to think of it. I must have typed it out while multiple different wordings were going through my head; in any case, I said the opposite of what I meant.
Decepticon Lines: Stockade: "Banzai-Tron's not going to be happy about this." "We've got Autobots." Astrotrain: "Afraid so, they're ten mile to the southwest." "Things are getting too hot around here." Archforce: "That's right Autobots, you can't stop me." "This is a battle not a ballet." Dirge: "Yes sir." "Energon production is at optimal levels Commander."
Well, I've decided to make this a movie rather than a series. I think I can get it to flow better that way. I still need help with voices. And there will be more characters to appear, I just have to figure out who and if they even have lines as I continue to write. I also made this test of animation a few days ago. It's only about the animation. No sound or anything. YouTube - Dai and Sentinel Test
