Voice Actors Needed

Jerry Smetzer is working on a three minute animated short for the JUMP Society winter film festival and he’s in search of some voice actors. Specifically, one old guy with a resonant voice, and two young, kind of pushy, women. The theme is history, and the speaking involves an interaction between the sphinx (the one in Egypt) and two modern young women.

If you’d like to contact Jerry and help him with his project, please call 586-1215
