【The iNSaNiTY Project】Vocaloid Chorus Auditions【OPEN】

Come one, come all to...
The iNSaNiTY Project Chorus Auditions!

[The Audition Deadline has been extended to the 5th of August. It will not be extended any further unless there are extenuating circumstances. If you are interested in this project, please submit your auditions before the deadline.]

♚ T.I.P. is a chorus centered around the concept of insanity. All songs produced by the chorus will be related to this central theme.

♚ iNSaNiTY: A term which, for our intents and purposes, is defined to encompass any and all aspects of the horror genre which may contain, but are not limited to disillusionment, confusion, or madness.

The chorus will cover a variety of horror-genre songs in Japanese, and will operate (or so we hope) as a familial unit. Undermining, name-calling, and other disrespectable behaviors will be strictly prohibited. The aforementioned applies to auditions as well as to chorus activities. If an auditioner or chorus member has been found to have violated the standard code of conduct, he or she will be promptly removed from the chorus.
But enough of that~

I can animate miku, rin, kaito and luka in source.

Ah ah ah when is this due?

@ raidensnake: Thank you! I'm in dire need of an animator. ^^"

@ gaahcats: As of now, there is no set deadline. The deadline will depend on the number of auditions I receive. There have only been a handful of auditions so far, so chances are that the audition deadline will not be for quite awhile. But, please don't let that discourage you. Early auditions are more than welcome~ 
You can find the link to the Chorus's YT Page at the bottom of my earlier post, if you're interested. ^^

I'll be able to audition if the deadline is a bit after the 13 and 14 of July o u o.

Name/Alias: gaah
Age: 14
Gender: f
Range: mid-ranged to high notes
Preferred vocaloids: Mayu, IA, Gumi
Japanese pronunciation: 8-9
Weaknesses: my voice isn't that powerful
Strengths: I'm good at harmonies
Activity: 8-9
Skype: danabanouvong
Example piece: (coming later)

I only have certain versions of the characters i can use. like luka cyber nation, miku normal, miku append, rin meltdown ect... mainly due to what's available.

Would Abstract Nonsense, Tokyo Teddy Bear, or Lost Time Memory work for audition songs? ouo;

@ raidensnake: Hmm... Would you be willing to serve as an assistant if we were to come across another animator? Perhaps the two (or more of you) could work as a team? I imagine that animation must be a large ordeal for one person. owo

@ zetabulous: Any of those songs would be acceptable as an audition. ^^

well depends on how much you know about source SDK itself. I do rendering using the kinect or mmd conversions. It's quite easy to set up a demo test.

Would crime and punishment be acceptable for an audition song? ouo

@ raidensnake: I know next to nothing about it. owo Would you mind showing me an example of your work?

@ gaahcats: Yes, Tsumi to Batsu is acceptable. ^^ (I love that song, by the way~)

How about 150p's series like... Nisemono Chuuihou/Kodoku no Kakurenbo/etc? the song's kinda crazy o w || /shot

Either of those songs would make an acceptable audition~ ^^

Name/Alias: Natsuno (in katakana)
Age: 16
Gender: Female
Range: C3-C5
Preferred Vocaloids: Any, but prefer males.
Japanese pronunciation: 3-4
Weaknesses: High song--but I'll do the song lower octave, if I can. Belting things, high voice girlish...d'oh. orz
Strengths: I can...do...raps (but need the lyrics), fast song, and genderbending (oh well I'm reverse trap or smth...)
Activity: 7/10, depends on time being.
Skype: baldy,ugetsu
Example Piece: I hope it'll be fine... teehee.

Good luck for the chorus.

@ Natsuno: Thanks very much for your audition. ^^ 

I hope you'll stay tuned for the results video.

Sorry for the late reply. I've had my hands full fixing the tools I use. Here's a couple of examples.

Early Lipsync Experiment:


Dance Animation Test:


These were rendered in Source SDK.

@ raidensnake: Oh, I see what you mean. I understand now. If I may ask, have you ever animated for choruses in the past?

I only did fandub mixing in the past with duets but that was over 6 years ago. The 3D animation is a new challenge I'd love to try.

Would Children Record or Yobanashi Decieve work? :D

@ raidensnake: Haha, alright. We may have some use for you. Thanks very much for applying! ^^

@ LotusHummingbird: I would accept Yobanashi Deceive, but not Children Record. And thanks for your interest in the project! :D

So it's closed now? GL for the judging /o/

Waiting for the result!
