Casting Call; Voice actors for Lily And Theon
We're looking for two voice actors for the roles; Lily and Theon.
LILY
Keywords; 11 years old girl, Shy but curious, Soft-spoken, British/American English. Expected amount: 75-100 words (including emotive sounds like sighs, etc.)
The character, Lily, embodies the traits of a shy yet curious 11-year-old girl with a soft-spoken voice. Having experienced the loss of her brother to leukemia, Lily dwells in deep sorrow, clinging to the belief that her brother might return. This grief propels her into a fantasy world where she navigates the five stages of grief while hopefully seeking to save her lost sibling.
Lily is an insecure girl, and due to this she gets quite shy and reserved. She gets discouraged in the face of challenges. However, even after her brother died she’s still kind, honest and helpful.
THEON
Keywords; Duck creature, 16-year-old male voice, confident but reckless, charismatic, British/American English. Expected amount: 75-100 words (including emotive sounds like sighs, etc.)
Theon is an enthusiastic duck, his recklessness often surpassing his own confidence in the face of challenges. This duck is a fantasy manifestation of Lily’s (the protagonist) deceased brother. Theon’s unbridled optimism propels Lily forward. In difficult circumstances, he reminds her of the brotherly encouragement that still resides in her heart.
Theon is the polar opposite of the protagonist Lily who’s more reserved and shy. Theon is optimistic, and confident but can be quite impulsive and unpredictable. Theon serves as the comedic side character. Even though he is a duck, we do not want him to have a goofy duck voice. His voice is more like that of the deceased brother of Lily who was 16 years old.
