Project Main Details
Main character for an Egypt themed casual game
LTK91028285455X
Hello,
We are looking for a talent to lend voice to a main character/narrator for an Egypt-themed casual game.
The character's name is Khufu. It's a friendly and wise magical monkey dressed in Egyptian clothes. He speaks with a light Arabic accent. Mix your typical Ancient-Egyptian-Sage with Rafikki from the Disney's Lion King and you've got Khufu.
Khufu's voice appears in many parts of the game. He's the narrator in the opening sequence, he talks to the player to advance the story and he has a set of shouts/exclamations for the game's special events. Thus, some diversity and acting skills are desirable.
In the narrative parts Khufu should sound as your typical movie lector (however, not the Hollywood trailer guy). Or like a wise grandpa reading a very exciting and mysterious fairy-tale to his children. He should be serious and some acting would be great.
In the in-game parts Khufu should speak in a friendly and less serious manner. He's talking to the player and while he serves as a mentor, he treats the player as his friend. He should also add some comical factor to the whole thing. Some funnier acting would fit nicely here.
Shorter quotes and exclamations are reserved for in-game special events. They should be dynamic, enthusiastic and they have to catch attention. Things will pop and explode and these quotes have to go well with that.
All that while retaining the character's personality and without sounding too "wacky". Players will hear him a lot, so the voice has to be understandable and pleasant. And please remember about the accent ;).
The whole voice over is about 850+ words.

Sample of the script for audition purposes:
[In-game text:]
I’m Khufu, the magical monkey from the underground Oasis!
Foolish are those who take me for an ordinary monkey, for I was summoned by the Seven Gods to serve you with my advice. I will aid you on your quest of restoring the temples of Saqqarah.
Our journey starts in the temple of Isis. Go on! I will meet you there.
[Narrative part:]
Modern day Egypt - an attraction for the tourists raised upon the ruins of an ancient civilisation of countles wonders. Once every thousand years, a mysterious eclipse shrouds the ancient pyramid of Saqqarah in total darkness.
[Special events and exclamations:]
Time for magic!
Start!
Yes! That's the one!
That was amazing!
