OTCA Stop Motion Project?

[SkyWarp91]

Update:

So after tallying the number of lines said by each character, here they are. These are estimates though done in a very rushed process and I may be off by a number or two. I'll isolate each character's lines in separate documents later to confirm their numbers. So here we have it:

I guess Auditions are now open and I am now offering paid roles (paypal), noted are also what I look for in voices. Extra paid roles may be added on later for any roles with more than 20 lines or payments offered to combined roles by same actor/actresses

• Starscream (58) - $35 - Bay Movie Voice
  
• Skywarp (3) - G1ish voice
  
• Thundercracker (26) - G1ish
  
• Generic Decepticon (3) - Any evil voice
  
• Decepticon Crowd (1) - Any evil voice
  
• Bumblebbe (2) - Mark Ryan's voice
  
• Sam Witwicky (1) - If it's a funny impersonation of Shia Leboff then I'm all ears lol
  
• Breakdown (2) - You can do your own take on this, G1ish style if wanted
  
• TopSpin (6) - Bogan-like
  
• Leadfoot (4) - DOTM-esque, irish accent?
  
• Roadbuster (2) - DOTM-esque, irish accent?
  
• Military Pilot (2) - Generic soldier voice, young
  
• General Morshower (8) - Glenn Morshower impersonator wanted $7
  
• Ratchet (48) - $30 - Bay Movie role
  
• Human Operator (1) - anyone can offer
  
• Payload (7) - like Bane from Batman The Animated Series
  
• Mindwipe (3) - Calm, gravelly, similar to his appearance in the Cyber Mission series
  
• Optimus Prime (26) - Am trying to negotiate a deal with jon3pnt0 of Youtube fame to do Optimus' voice. Auditions welcome. Cullen impersonation highly-sought after.
  
• Sideswipe (21) - Bay Movie version
  
• Vice-President Logan (8) - Male with a good US accent is preferred, and in fashion with Gregory Itzin's portrayal of President Logan from TV-Show '24'
  
• MILITARY COMMANDER (2) - not fussed
  
• RADIO OPERATOR (1) - not fussed
  
• HAILSTORM (1) - not fussed

update: proof-reading, after getting enough free time is finally done. I'm happy with the story that I have created and will now start separating all of the lines spoken by each character into their own document and have another read of what they say in my head to see if it flows naturally, then I'll post out the scripts to the vocal talent. I probably will make a summary of what each character is like and how the voice actor should tackle them.

Then after that it's time to start drawing up some storyboards, which I intend to do over the next 2-3 weeks. Fun fun fun!

EDIT - As of 7th June 2012 I have finally separated all the lines for each individual characters into their own documents. Jon Bailey is almost done with his lines as Optimus Prime and I will re-read some of the lines spoken by major characters including Starscream, Ratchet and Skyhammer before moving onto Storyboards.

[SkyWarp91]

Just got the recordings back from Jon Bailey, oh man his voice is god-like. I am so pumped to get this project done now.

[SkyWarp91]

Updated the Casting Call list post-proofreading. Added some more precise character details.

The number next to the name indicates the number of lines said. Some roles offered will include payment. I have decided to withdraw from doing most of the voices as I want to share the roles for more OTCAnarians.

EDIT: Roles that have been reserved may still be auditioned for.

Updated Casting Call:

1. Starscream (58) - This Starscream is based on the Bay movie incarnation, he has a soft yet raspy voice. Auditioning: Firestorm
2. Ratchet (48) - Based on the Bayformers Ratchet incarnation. Ratchet is tiring of the Autobot-Decepticon war and begins questioning whether it will ever end. This movie reveals Ratchet's more violent side as he gets more involved in fighting. -Maybe KalEl
3. Thundercracker (25) - Thundercracker can have any voice, but a nod to his G1 character would be nice. Like his G1 character, Thundercracker does not really care about humans and is more focused on his own race. He's not so loyal to Starscream. He does lack initiative though to do what he thinks is right.
4. Skyhammer (24) - Skyhammer can have any voice, like Sideswipe he is somewhat cocky but is actually an intelligent fighter. He is laid-back and isn't so formal with his manners like Optimus or Ratchet.
5. Sideswipe (21) - Based on his Bayformers incarnation. Sideswipe is a skilled fighter but maybe overconfident of his skills. Unlike Optimus or the other Autobots he is reluctant to make the sacrifices necessary to win the Autobot-Decepticon war. Reserved for KalEL
6. General Morshower (8) Based on Glenn Morshower's portrayal of... General Morshower!Maybe Jon Bailey
7. Vice-President Logan (8) - Vice President Logan is based on the 24 character Charles Logan, he's more selfish than he is selfless and tends to panic and tends to try and put responsibilities on others than on himself. Maybe Jon Bailey
8. Payload (7) - Payload is the Bane of Transformers. He is the lethal combination of strength and intelligence that even Megatron fears. Payload doesn't care about saving his home planet, he just wants to kill, crush and destroy! His voice is gravelly, loud and heavily masculine.
9. TopSpin (6) - The only character to not talk in DOTM, Topspin can have any voice. As the other 2 Wreckers are portrayed as stereotypical NASCAR rednecks, so Topspin could be a typical Australian bogan. Reserved for KalEL
10. Leadfoot (4) - Has a rough-aggressive British voice. Based on DOTM appearance voiced by John Dimaggio (Bender from Futurama) Reserved for KalEL
11. Decepticon Guard / War Within Fallen (3) - A royal Decepticon Guard of considerably high strength that guards the Vector Sigma. Th character will be based on a slightly modified War Within Titanium 6" The Fallen figure. Reserved for KalEL
12. Generic Decepticon / Runamuck (3) - Runamuck's basically dying when we first see him. So a good dying voice will suffice. Reserved for KalEL
13. Mindwipe (3) - Based on Cyber Missions appearance, his voice is deep and echoey as seen here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AI2tz...feature=relmfu Reserved for KalEL
14. Skywarp (3) - Skywarp can have any voice, but a nod to his G1 character would be nice. He is loyal to Stasrcream yet is unintelligent.
15. Breakdown (2) - A psychotic Decepticon who overestimates his own ability. Auditioning: Firestorm
16. Brimstone (2) - Can have any voice. Reserved for KalEL
17. MILITARY COMMANDER (2) - Human voice. Can be anyone. Reserved for KalEL
18. Military Pilot (2) - Can have any voice. Reserved for KalEL
19. Roadbuster (2) - Harsh, gravelly British voice. Based on DOTM appearance. Only 2 LINES! 3 words!!! Reserved for KalEL
20. Wreckage (2) - http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Wreckage_%28Movie%29 ; Can have any voice.
21. Decepticon Crowd (1) - Can have many voices put together to simulate an echo effect. KalEl, Skywarp91
22. HAILSTORM (1) - Can have any voice. Auditioning: Firestorm
23. RADIO OPERATOR (1) - Can have any voice.
24. Sam Witwicky (1) - Funny Shia Lebouf impersonation if possible Auditioning: Firestorm
