[URGENT CASTING] "Tales From..." Season 1: The Starlight Ascension (D&D Actual Play Podcast)
Project Overview
URGENT CASTING: 2-3 actors for a d&d podcast in progress. 1 posted episode, 7 more recorded and awaiting edits pending recasting! You will be coming in to play new members of the team that the current members meet on their mission!
A science-fantasy actual-play podcast using the D&D 5e rules but set in space. A tale reminiscent of saturday morning cartoons; about the power of being true to yourself and the dangers of innovation without accountability.
THE WHO:
You will be creating a character who has found themselves as a member of these intergalactic explorers. You have been chosen by your ship to help defend the universe against a strange and ancient encroaching threat. It is your symbiotic relationship w this strange machine that grants you your powers. (Unless, perhaps, the strength was inside of you all along?)
Additionally, us as a group will be building this universe up together! To make it feel more alive and dynamic, I would like the whole cast to collaborate on the worldbuilding!
THE WHERE:
We will be using Discord to communicate, and D&D Beyond for character sheet tracking and dice rolls! Occasionally we will also use Roll20 for maps!
THE HOW:
Applicants must have:
- A blue yeti (or better) quality microphone. Some background noise can be edited out but consistent hissing/buzzing should not be present. This goes for your recording environment as well, ambient highway/AC noise or background echo should be as minimal as possible.
- Prior knowledge of d&d/tabletop systems is NOT required!!! So long as you are willing to learn and have fun with us!
- Prior acting experience is preferred, but not required!
If you would like any more information about the universe or current worldbuilding to help inform your audition or character choices, please don't hesitate to message me here or on discord at Robin#8222
If you're not interested but know someone that might be, please pass this along!!! Thank you so much for reading!
If you are interested, please audition below with a 30-60 second audio clip to the e-mail below with what name you'd like to be credited by, your pronouns, a list of your previous podcast and/or tabletop experience (if any), a brief description of your concept for your character (if you have one already, not required), and a short explanation of why you'd like to be part of this project.
