FAQs:
When does this job start and how long will production last?
We anticipate the series to run for 3 seasons; at this time we are looking to secure voice actors for the first season, and if there is a mutual interest after Season 1, there is potential for the voice actors to stay on board for Season 2 and 3. We actually prefer the same voice actors to voice all three seasons. The start date and overall length of production is currently TBD (to be determined).
Is this a paying job?
Not up front as we are following a crowd-funding payment structure, which means there may be no guarantee of payment. The production costs of this film series is anticipated to be funded by a crowd-funding campaign that will be launched on Kickstarter.com. (The campaign date is currently TBD). Compensation will be provided if campaign funding goal is met. If our campaign funding goal is not met, voice talents will retain all work as unpaid portfolio pieces. Further compensation and project details will only be discussed with qualifying candidates.
