FIRE EMBLEM CIPHER CRITS

THE BINDING BLADE - PART I



This is the casting call for our third Cipher Crits video! The Fire Emblem: The Binding Blade anniversary is in March and just like the previous tribute videos FishyFried and I made, this one will be created in celebration of that. All critical quotes are original and written by us exclusively for this project. The video will be presented in a compilation format along with game footage and cut-in artwork from the Fire Emblem Cipher (TCG) series. The finished product will look and be presented in a similar way to how critical quotes are done in the 3DS Fire Emblem games. The video will be uploaded to YouTube on Fishy Emblem.





You can find our previous Cipher Crits videos here!





We asked our audience what characters they'd like to see for the first batch of Binding Blade and took that into consideration when choosing who to include. Since we're splitting up the cast, not all characters who currently have cipher art will be included in this casting call.

AUDITION GUIDELINES

Please keep in mind that some character descriptions and lines contain spoilers!





1) Have good audio! No puffing, pops, or echoes and minimal background noise is preferred. The audio will be edited and amplified, so any imperfections in audio quality can become very apparent.

2) Please read the character descriptions carefully before auditioning to get an idea of what we're looking for! While most of the characters here have a voice actor in the mobile game Fire Emblem Heroes, Binding Blade itself does not have an official dub. We’re absolutely open to, and would prefer any original interpretations that reflect the personality of the character!

3) Read your lines with emotion. Since most of these are critical hit lines, the majority are meant to be delivered in a smug, condescending way, and/or even shouted! The boss dialogue generally portrays a scene where the character is facing a powerful adversary, exacting vengeance or fighting a loved one under dire circumstances.

4) MULTIPLE takes of the critical hit lines are recommended. If you use a variety of intonations and emotions it increases the chance of us hearing something we like! Unless otherwise indicated by the (vs. whatever character) label, all lines are critical hit lines and should be delivered as such!

5) Please have Discord! With the exception of Roy, Lilina and Zephiel who have additional lines and quotes, the lines listed are all the lines required for the project. If cast, you will not have to record any additional lines unless redos are necessary (due to pronunciation, delivery, audio quality, etc) in which case the actors will have one week to re-record.

6) Deadline for auditions is February 24th, 2019. No role will be cast before the deadline.

7) If you'd like feedback on your auditions, please message FishyFried here on CCC or on Discord (FishyFried#3078)!

8) Since all voices will appear in the same video in quick succession, no one will be cast for multiple roles. You are, however, allowed and encouraged to audition for as many roles as you want!

The final video is expected to release on March 29th, 2019. All the lines, footage, artwork and any additional assets will be fully prepared so production will begin immediately after casting! If there are any questions, please feel free to message me, FishyFried or leave a comment on this page!



Thank you for your time & have fun!
