Voice Auditions

I am going to sound like a pervert, but it is a compliment so it should be fine-- a lot of the voices sounds very handsome.
Sorry, but I had to say it LMAO. I hope it's not odd or impolite..

All the auditions so far are all so great... It is not even the deadline yet and I am already battling between some of the voices.. It makes me kind of sad that I can only choose one for each character, cause there are multiple voices that seems to fit a certain character LMAO. I'm gonna have a real hard time casting the voice actors on the second of February XD, hopefully some of my friends can help me with this ;v;~ -looks at the ol' crew-

Update for Class!

This post is for ANIM 420 Senior Animation II class

Since I started my blog for this film last semester, I am just going to link to some of my previous posts' pictures. If you are not in my class, you can just ignore this since it is a bit of a repeat XD:

  • Production Schedule and Task List (I kind of think they are the same, so they are put together... but then again I don't think we have done a task list before so I am not sure what I need.)
  • Reference Images/ Videos:                                                                                                      
Professor Layton (Subtle animation, character designs, and colour)

Triplets of Belleville (Jumpy, yet smooth animation, Character designs and colour)

Up (Character contrasts, squash and stretch animation, and bright colours)

  • Work in Process Reel (Last updated in December, next update will be available on Feb 2) [Password Protected]

I hope I posted everything and am doing it right, sorry if I missed or messed up anything.

[EDIT] For some reason, the links to my references weren't working.. here they are:
