Our Sky Fades : Radio Drama
Project Overview
Floating islands connected by a sea of clouds. At the edges of the world. A terrifying storm that never ends. This is Lutch, a world fighting itself just to exist just a couple more years. A truly beautiful world that will take you into the abyss of the clouds if you aren't careful.
This is a Radio Drama that takes place in a Steampunk/fantasy world. Where it's people are in a constant struggle for supplies and land. A mixture of fantasy races and technological advancements. The story follows Harper and Jake and their struggle to live in the world. But they both have a habit of getting into other peoples business
Audition guidlines
1. A good mic quality is a must here. I don’t want one guy to sound like they recorded in a snowstorm. So no background noises, no peeking, and no popping. If you don’t know how to get rid of these then look it up.
2. Don’t be a Dick. This one is obvious, I don’t want to work with people who are rude to me or anyone else on the team. I’m looking for cooperation. Not discourse.
3. You must do live direction! Look I know it might be nerve racking to have another person listen to you act. But I don’t have the time to do the email chain. And if we do Live direction Lines will get done so much quicker. Also i’m not going to say you suck. I’m not gonna violate my own rules, of not being a dick. I'll do my absolute best to work around your schedule, and be nice with my directions. all and all. If you get the part, we are a team making a project. And I want to make sure that you feel like a value you as a team member.
4. Be fine with cursing.
5. Do 3 takes of each line. If you want to have a leg up on the people who didn’t read the rules. (cause I know there will be some) Do multiple takes and show me your acting range. I have each line equipped with an emotion or way I want you to deliver them, but put a little bit of you in the take. If you want to do the line like a Dragon who lost it’s milk at the store and burns it down to the ground on accident because of it. Then do it. But do make sure you do the directions first.
6.Have a discord. This will be the main way I’ll inform everyone of what’s happening when, and it’s where I’ll distribute scripts, and updates on the project.
7. I’m not afraid of recasting. If for some reason you aren’t following the rules even after you get casted. I will replace you with someone who I’ll enjoy working with. Reference rule number 2.
8. This project is long term. so just know that some roles will be reoccurring
