Casting call for A Vampire Love Story

Fredrick · 08-31-2008, 11:54 AM

I need three voice actors for my film fest entry, which is basically (as the title suggests) a romance story about a lonesome vampire.

So, here goes:

1. The Vampire: educated and sophisticated, enjoys classical music and plays the organ, not the most confident vampire there is (think Victor from Corpse Bride, just less pathetic)

2. The Girl: I'd rather not reveal much about her yet.

3. The Narrator: As Aaron so neatly put it, needs the gravity and bass tones of Orson Welles (or something along the lines of Vincent Price in Tim Burton's Vincent, or Christopher Lee - do we have any of those?).

Please post samples if you're interested. Thanks.

I'll try for the vampire... and maybe the narrator, but I doubt my voice has the bass you're looking for, but it doesn't hurt to try? If Dustin Guest is still around and does voices, I think he could do a great narrator.

PM sample lines and in what way you want them to be said?

I could attempt a vincent price-esque narrator.

also, I could do the first character, but I think Tuna already nabbed that one.

EDIT:

I took out the tangient and the burp...

Only those 3 parts? No one-dimensional cameo characters? Can't help you, sorry.

Hahaha look forward to the film though

If the Vampire's still free I'm willing to take a stab at it (lol). That's the only role I'd be somewhat suitable for, though. My voice is kinda posh.

I'll get back to you soon.

One of the narrator's lines, if anyone would like to try:

What you are about to see is a story of love
but not a happy one, oh no
This is not a tale of happy romances,
because they do not all end with kisses and dances.

Fredrick · 09-03-2008, 09:07 PM

Mr. Slade did his lines so well that I've already hired him without hearing any others. Sorry (but thanks). Any takers for the narrator? Or the girl (she's a prostitute).

I will try and record an example line of the narrator tommorow.

i know a girl (american) that does voices, i shall ask her what she thinks about voicing a prostitute, unless you want a euroslag

Tuna Hematoma · 09-03-2008, 10:04 PM

sent a pm with my attempt at narrator

Stan Pennant · 09-04-2008, 08:32 AM

I'll give the narrator another shot tommrow (hopefully better and closer to what you are after)

And as for the girl, when I get home (I am at work) I will persuade my girlfriend to audition, no promises, but I have always said she'd make a fantastic prositute.

Haha, awesome.
