THIS IS A PAYING GIG
Hello Adventurers! This is a casting call for "Aether Fount" Frog50 Animation's first original show.
Aether Fount is a fantasy-adventure cartoon done in an 8-bit pixel art style. At the moment, just a pilot episode is being made, but if the pilot is successful, this could be a long-term project.
There are 15 different roles that I will need cast: 4 main, 3 support, 5 antagonists, and 3 extras. They each have several lines and you are welcome to audition for as many as you'd prefer!
The pay is $2.25 USD per line. Also the four "Main" characters will get a bonus of $15 for extra lines for revision, promotion and possibly ADR work after the initial readings. (NOTE the bonus for the Uuda role is $30 due to that role requiring some singing)
Anybody is free to audition for any role, regardless of experience! However you must meet the following requirements:
1) Be at least 18 years old
2) Able and willing to sign and uphold an NDA
3) Able to receive payment through PayPal
4) Have access to recording equipment
5) Able to deliver your reading within a month and are easily able to get a hold of
