Keyhole: Season One (2nd Round)
Project Overview
Hi everyone,
This is the second round of audtions for Keyhole, a fantasy/military audio drama. Thank you for your interest in my project!
PODCAST OVERVIEW
"Keyhole" is set the present day and involves a group of Canadian soldiers defending the world from a force of invading militaristic mermaids, arriving on Earth via wormholes called "keyholes". Season one starts on Sable Island as the plane of Lieutenants Grace Booth and Nathalie Mulroney crashes on the island and they discover that it has been occupied. They find allies in the form of Captain McQueen and Emma and they manage to escape to the mainland by the skin of their teeth. Of course, when they do, no one believes them.
PAYMENT
Payment is a $10 USD fee for set up and $0.25 USD per line after that. Payment is send out using Interac eTransfer for Canadians and PayPal for international VAs.

DEADLINE
The deadline is January 1st at 12 AM EST. If you're cast in a role, you'll have until Feburary 1st to deliver your lines. All of the four episodes' scripts will be assigned at once.

I SWEAR I’m gonna have the head of the DIPSHIT who loaded live ammunition during a TRAINING EXERCISE.
[long yawn] Today has really tired me out. [laugh] I think I’m gonna head inside and hit the hay. Do you mind standing watch?
N-now that Colonel Lemay and I have gotten your undivided attention, I want to reaffirm that the information we’re about to present to you isn’t an out of season April Fools joke; nor is it the results of a nervous breakdown.

Enough! Enough of this crackpot story!
No, no, correction: Two highly maneuverable combat aircraft have gone MISSING.
I mean, seriously, what’s more likely? The aircraft appearing on the black market or a bunch of magical sea people shooting them down with AA?
Nameless extra character. Stereotypical naval officer. Tough, but fair.
