NG 20th Anniversary Voice Acting

Hello voice actors of NG! I'm running a big project in honor of NG's 20th anniversary right now, known as The CTSG Collab. The project involves NG musicians, animators, developers, artists, writers, but not yet any voice actors! Want to be involved? You can!

I've prepared a list of 25 characters. There's at least one character for every year between 1999 and 2014, 18 of which can talk. I've made sure most of them have somewhat interesting personalities. Other factors that influenced my choices were based on their popularity and also on gender. You'd be surprised how hard it was to decide on girl characters.

You might be wondering why the list is limited to 25 characters, so let me explain: The project will have a menu. As you can see, it's nowhere near to being finished right now, I'm still working on it. But once the menu is done, it is time to fill every room with interactive Newgrounds characters! Every animator involved with this project (25 in total) will be asked to pick a Newgrounds character from the list. They will then be told in what room their character resides, and they will then animate their character of choice within that room. Here's the trick though: All of these characters will react when they are clicked. That's where you guys come in!

===

RULES:
- Make sure your mic doesn't suck. Quality recordings please!
- Every voice actor picks one character he/she feels most comfortable with. If it's already taken, you may want to pick someone else.
- Making up different voices for a character is not allowed, with the exceptions of Tankgirl and Pico. Nobody really knows how they sound. Needless to say, chocolateman has a computer voice, so his lines don't have to be recorded.
- I recommend getting familiar with the character's personality. A little research may really help with your tonation.
- Make sure to record the appointed lines. If you're feeling creative, I allow you to add other phrases to your character. Who knows, I might pick them over my own!
- If you sign up for this project, please don't waste my time. Record and upload your file within the same week.

SPREADSHEET

===

A little footnote: At some point I may switch characters within this list for others. If - for example - one character just never gets picked because he/she is extremely unpopular, then I may switch that character for a different (possibly mute) character. Hopefully none of that will be necessary. Another reason may be that a lot of female voice actors sign up for this project. If there are no other characters left for them to voice, I may switch a male character for a girl's and vice versa.

Alright then. I think that covers just about everything :)

Let's get started!

Sounds great!

By not making up voices, do you mean that we have to use our own natural voice?

It means you don't make up your own voice, but re-enact the original voice to the best of your ability.

If you're willing to send it to me via PM, that's very welcome. Also, if you're not satisfied with your current recording and you'd like to try again, that's fine with me.

I'm considering in doing this kind of project, but I need a little bit more time to think about it. Do you think you can provide some recordings from the character's show that you have in the spreadsheet? Just so we know the sound we need to make for the characters. If not, then a little more research wouldn't hurt.

Most of those phrases were made up, so I couldn't provide any audio segments. I hope those links to the series will suffice.

I was hoping you could voice one of the girl characters on the list.
Kerrigan, Miss Dynamite and Zoe are all well-known newgrounds characters so I hope you can make them sound similar to the original. Tankgirl is just a female version of the Tankmen characters. Her voice is unknown, so that one may be the easiest to pull off. I provided links to the series for reference, and added a spreadsheet which contains lines for each character.

Fantastic! I love both of these a lot! Although Tankgirl should probably speak up. I'm planning to add music/noises from the ambience, and I'm afraid nobody will be able to hear what she says.

No worries! ^_^ If you hire me for her, or them, i can go louder for the final takes ^_^


Hallo. I wanna be Foamy. Or Larry. Or both. However the dice roll. You prefer it submitted here on Newgrounds or elsewhere?
You will have the audition(s) mere minutes after I know.

Since you're interested in doing either, could you try for both? I don't really mind where you upload the audio to. Aslong as I can download it, it'll be fine.
