FINAL NOTES
Please don't read what's between the parenthesis or the character info. Those are there to provide context and give you an idea about the character and what emotion they're trying to convey.
Discord is required as we utilize it to organize group rehearsals and deliver announcements, or updates (it's also been a handy tool for getting to know the people affiliated with the project and we've had a fair bit of fun with it).
You may be asked to audition for additional roles if your voice has range and emotion.
There has been an incredible response to this casting call and we feel like we need a week or two to sort through the auditions and introduce ourselves to the voice actors! Thank you so much for the amazing feedback and responses you have given us so far, please stay tuned for casting! We'll see you soon.
UNREHEARSED
Eliana, a senior in high school, moves to Oaksdale with her abuelita Rocio, seeking a fresh start. Despite facing challenging circumstances in her childhood - including the loss of her parents and enduring bullying for her uniqueness - Eliana remains resilient and optimistic. Despite having to shoulder adult responsibilities at a young age, she maintains a youthful outlook on life. As she commences her studies at Marleis High, Eliana endeavors to cultivate genuine, meaningful connections by embodying kindness and generosity, in the hope of forming lasting friendships.
(Internal Dialouge: Panicking) “AH! SHOOT! WHAT DO I SAY?! Haha, oh yeah, we left cause Im traumatized?”
(Uneasy) “I really needed to get away from my old school... And my old home....”
(Excited) “¡Hasta luego abuelita! Love you!”
Levi, a dense senior football player, holds the esteemed position of captain of the Marleis Football team and seems quite popular amongst his peers. Although he strives to uphold moral conduct, he grapples with managing his temper, largely due to a lack of learned emotional communication stemming from his single father, Austin, who prioritizes scholastic pursuits above all else. Levi demonstrates a strong inclination towards comprehending his environment, despite facing challenges in articulating his thoughts effectively.
(Embarrassed) “Sorry! I didn’t mean to stare so aggressively.”
(Timid) “I dunno…people…people just praise me a lot for beating up bullies, but I don’t know… it doesn’t really make me feel good…”
(Annoyed) “We have talked! Multiple times! And you never listen…”
Marco is considered an outcast and a lone wolf among his senior classmates. He is very fond of creating comics and characters to release all his teenage angst and has no interest in interacting with his peers, even to clear up misconceptions about him. He is tired of everyone around him thinking he's bad, especially for things that happened in the past. The only reason he gave Eliana a chance was because she was new and maybe he could be friends with her.
(Relieved) “Thank god that’s not me…”
(Startled) “Holy shit- I am so sorry! I-I got paint all over you! You spooked me.”
(Comfort) "I'm really... really sorry about your family, Eliana. And I'm sorry if my family overwhelmed you, but you shouldn't have run off like that."
Amelia is the industrious and well-regarded president of the senior class student council, as well as the captain of the girls’ volleyball team. Though she is no longer in a relationship with Levi, she maintains that it is just a temporary break and is keen on persuading anyone who believes otherwise. She prioritizes her public image and is unaware that her actions may have consequences in her adolescent mind, at least for the time being.
(Pleased) “Oh hush, Ms. Everstien! I’m not that much of an expert. Cmon, Eliana. Let’s go check out your classes.”
(Annoyed) “Seriously? Guys. We’re only taking a break.”
(Suspicious) “I don’t mean to sound rude or anything but I heard he’s actually a drug dealer. Like, do you see the way he dresses and how unkempt he is?”
