[VA CASTING] NEON IGNITION™ | A Cyberpunk Audio/Visual Drama

Project Overview

Hey synths!

Welcome to Neon Ignition, an audio / visual drama set in a cyberpunk cityscape called 'Nefarion', the city of chrome and shadows...

Please read through the description for more information!

--SYNOPSIS

In the dark city of Nefarion, a team of mercenaries presumed dead emerges from a catastrophic collapse that was meant to be their demise. Officially declared casualties in a city that swiftly moves on, their survival isn't just luck—it's laced with secrets. As they unravel a web of gang rivalries and corrupt corporate schemes, they discover that they're targets, marked for death due to a mysterious tech implant that saved them. They must figure out who wants them dead and why, as each clue leads them deeper into danger. They must expose it before their enemies silence them for good.

--CONTENT WARNING 18+

Please be aware that the script includes mature themes such as drug use, bodily harm, gore, sexual content, violence, and strong language. We are dedicated to handling these topics with sensitivity and respect for our audience.

We're excited to present a storytelling experience that combines immersive 8D audio and engaging visuals. Our story lets you feel the sound, enhanced by an array of dynamic images, and light animations in a colorful, comic style by SylvellaArt. Currently we do already have the scripts for 20+ episodes prepared for the first season.

--PROJECT TIMELINE

The episodes of this series will be released on YouTube, with the full episode available on Spotify and as a podcast as audio exclusive. Extensive promotion is planned, including later live-action scenes. This project is a long-term endeavor, born from a dream and passion for this world. We are excited to embark on this journey with talented creators who share our excitement and passion for bringing Neon Ignition to life.

--AUDITION GUIDELINES

For optimal audio quality, we require the use of high-quality XLR microphones. Recordings must be free from background noise to preserve the immersive aspect of our audio drama. The project demands dynamic voice acting capable of expressing varied emotions, including yelling, screaming, and realistic battle sounds.

--PAYMENT DISCLOSURE

Compensation for each role is customized, considering the required time and effort. Main characters will receive higher pay due to their greater involvement. We are dedicated to supporting our voice actors to the best of our ability. As the project progresses, we plan to review and possibly revise the rates to more accurately reflect your contributions.

Latest Updates

  • -- 4 DAYS LEFT

    Thank you all for your auditions so far! Your talent has made creating this shortlist incredibly challenging.

    Many of you have asked about feedback and why you might have been dismissed. Since this project is an audiodrama, studio-quality sound is essential. Even the slightest room tone or echo can be problematic for us, so we're being extremely picky about audio quality.

    Regarding resubmissions, you're absolutely welcome to do so.

    We're looking for someone who can capture a roughness in the voice while maintaining plenty of emotion. Additionally, we want a performance that stands out, with effective use of non-verbal sounds and careful pacing of the lines.

    Thank you again to everyone who auditioned. If you would like more detailed feedback on your audition, please send me a DM.

CHARACTER BREAKDOWN:

Vance is 27, a man who combines medical know-how with mercenary skills. He's the quiet type but don't let that fool you – when things heat up, he's as cool and capable as they come. His life's taken him down some tough roads, making him streetwise and cautious about who he trusts. Vance isn't one to open up easily, preferring to keep his thoughts and feelings under wraps. You can always count on him in a tight spot, but getting to know the real Vance? That's another story. He's got layers that few have seen, a puzzle that's not easily solved.


CHARACTER TRAITS:

Vance is a quiet and intense individual, known for his resilience and self-reliance. Despite his guarded nature, he's fiercely loyal and perceptive. His strategic thinking and street smarts make him a reliable, albeit enigmatic, figure.


VOICE TONE: 

Rasp, Natural Medium-Low Pitch

[A reference for the voice we have in mind - LEVI ACKERMAN. You don't have to use it. Honestly, we want to hear your original takes on him.]


Please aim for a performance that feels authentic and believable. We're looking for acting that's grounded in reality, steering clear of over-the-top or cartoonish interpretations.

Voice description:

  • male adult
  • all american accents
  • raspy
Other info:
  • XLR
  • 1. (In a tense situation, being strategic): Remember, in situations like this, it's not just about brute force. It's about strategy, about choosing the right moment to make your move. Think of it like a game of chess – every decision, every move we make, it's critical.

  • 2. (Hesitantly): You think you want to know, but trust me, it's better you don't. *a long sigh* Out there, I've faced things that would shatter anyone. I used to wear that as a badge of honor, thought it made me stronger. But lately, my mind's been a battlefield of its own. I keep thinking, what's the purpose of all this? What am I even coming back to after each mission?

  • 3. (Urgent): Stay with me. Focus on my voice. I've been in tougher spots than this, and I've always made it out. We're going to make it through. Just keep your eyes on me and move – now! We don't have time to waste.
