Gravity Falls - Script Read Audio Drama
Project Overview
Hello,
I'm putting together a script read audio drama for the AMAZING animated series Gravity Falls!
This is intended to be a fun little project and anyone of any age may audition under the following conditions:
- Audio must be clean and free of background noise
- Must be able to submit recorded lines in no longer than two weeks time after receiving them
- Must have good communication ( CCC Messaging, email, Discord etc. *which ever you prefer)
- Notify me right away if you can't record your lines for any reason so I may recast immediately (There will be no hard feelings, things happen)
- ABSOLUTELY MUST HAVE FALLOW THROUGH (This is a small easy project, DO NOT audition if you cant fallow through)
I would like to be able to use all who audition, but clearly that's just not possible especially for such a small project so please understand that just because you audition doesn't mean you'll get the part. I may however suggest another role for you should I think you fit that one better.
Here is a link to the transcript of the episode we'll be reading from: http://gravityfalls.wikia.com/wiki/Tourist_Trapped/Transcript
Here is a link to the episode on YouTube for the voices: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GBhEkkhaOTg
*I don't expect you to sound exactly like the original character... As long as you nail the characteristics of their personality that's all I'm really looking for
**This Casting Call is for episode 1 ONLY! So there is no long term commitment
Thank you all for your interest in this project, I look forward to your auditions and perhaps i'll be working with you in the near future.

The narrator is the glue of this whole audio drama / Script read. The narrator sets the scene and with out him/her no one would really know whats going on. I'm open to all auditions for this role, male, female, high vocal range, low vocal range, accent or no accent. Whichever I feel fits the best will be the one I cast.
The camera pans to Hank grilling burgers while Shmipper and Smabble are running around beside him. Others sit at a picnic table.
Cut to a Sasquatch wearing underwear. Tourists start speaking excitedly, and snap pictures. Cut to Dipper sweeping the wooden floor with a broom. Mabel is looking at stuff.
Dipper looks out the window to see Norman walking towards Mabel with outstretched arms while moaning.
Dipper Pines is a curious, clever and inventive boy from Piedmont, California, forced to spending his summer together with his great uncle Stan in the fictional town of Gravity Falls, Oregon. He is accompanied by his twin sister Mabel Pines. He is 12 with a mid to high voice. Be sure to click the link in the description for an example of his character and voice.
(Narrating:) Ah, summer break. A time for leisure, recreation, and taking 'er easy... Unless you're me.
(Excited:) It's amazing! Grunkle Stan said I was being paranoid, but according to this book, Gravity Falls has this secret dark side. And get this! After a certain point, the pages just.. stop, like the guy who was writing it... mysteriously disappeared.
(Writing in Journal while narrating:) This journal told me there was no one in Gravity Falls I could trust. (Looking at Mabel) But when you battle a hundred gnomes side-by-side with someone, you realize that they've probably always got your back.
Mabel is an energetic 12-year-old girl. She has a high pitched girly voice with an energetic and bubbly personality. ( See link in the description for voice sample)
What? (Blows raspberry) Come on, Dipper! This is our first summer away from home! It's my big chance to have an epic summer romance!
Oh my gosh, you like turtles? I like turtles too! What is happening here?
We met at the cemetery. He's really deep. (Feels his arm) Oh. Little muscle there. That's...what a surprise...
Jeff... Is a gnome. in the show he has kind of a higher, nerdy, timid type of voice and personality I guess, you can click the link in the description for an example. I am open to all interpretations of this character if you just wanna shoot from the hip.
You've messed with the wrong creatures, boy! Gnomes of the forest: ASSEMBLE!
Is this weird? Is this too weird? Do you need to sit down? R-r-right, I’ll explain. So! We’re gnomes. First off. Get that one outta the way.
He's getting away with our queen! No, no, no!
A crotchety money hungry old swindler with a mid Vocal range gruffy voice. ( See link in the description for voice sample)
Nobody asked you, Soos.
All right, all right, look alive, people. I need someone to go hammer up these signs in the spooky part of the forest.
And here we have Rock that looks like a face rock: the rock that looks like a face.
Soos is the handy man of the Mystery Shack. His voice is deep and is pretty hard to explain, if you're not familiar with his character I'd advise you to clink the link in the above description for an example as Soos has very distinct voice characteristics.
Hmm. How many brains didja see the guy eat?
Look, dude, I believe you. I'm always noticing weird stuff in this town. Like the mailman? Pretty sure that dude's a werewolf.
But ya gotta have evidence. Otherwise, people are gonna think you’re a major league cuckoo clock.
Wendy, cashier and tomboy at the Mystery Shack. Mid High vocal rang with a laid back I don't care about anything attitude.
I would, but I, ugh, can't, ugh, reach it, ugh...
Try not to hit any pedestrians.
