This casting call is for supporting roles in a stand-alone, suspense audio drama Your Cat is a Serial Killer, loosely based on the song The Cat Came Back by Harry Miller.
ABOUT THE PROJECT
After seeing a series of ill-fated owners of a particular cat, veterinarian Gary Johnson begins to wonder if there's something sinister about the seemingly innocent pet. Could the cat be causing its owners' deaths? And if it is, what can Dr. Johnson do about it?
Your Cat is a Serial Killer (working title) is an approximately 20-minute stand-alone, suspense audio drama produced by Standing Sun Productions, written by Zack Lawrence (Xing: The Land Beyond, Delantare, In His Steps).
This is a passion project that I'm making in memory of a friend who passed away last year. I first wrote the script as a short film on a live stream a few years back, and my friend got a huge kick out of it. He would often bring it up over the years before he passed, wondering if I would ever make it. Even though I missed my chance for him to enjoy the finished product, I figured I can at least dedicate it to his memory. I rewrote the script as an audio drama, and I'd like to release it in time for what would have been his 43rd birthday in September on YouTube and possibly other platforms.
DEADLINES
The audition deadline for all roles is Saturday, July 20, 2024 by 10pm MDT. Actors selected for parts will be notified during the following week and will be given sides and deliverable instructions after the signing of a release form. Lines will be due by August 10, 2024. This is a hard deadline. If you are unable to record between July 28th - August 10th, please do not audition.
COMPENSATION, CHARACTERS & COMMUNICATION
Pay for each role is listed and varies depending on the size of the role. Payment will be done through PayPal. If you are cast for multiple parts, you'll be paid the total for each role, so feel free to audition for as many characters as you want!
The artwork featured here for each character is just for a general reference and doesn't necessarily reflect the characters' ethnicities or appearance.
Initial communication will be done through Casting Call Club to let you know if you've been cast, and then further communication will be done via Discord or email, whichever you prefer.
AUDITION REQUIREMENTS
Please submit recordings on the same equipment and settings you would be using for the final recording so your audition can be accurately judged.
Multiple takes for auditions are ok, but please do not include more than 2 takes for each line.
Have fun! Even though we'll be playing it completely straight, I recognize it's a silly premise, so there is a tongue-in-cheek element to it.
Feel free to send a message with any questions! Thank you for your interest, and I look forward to hearing everyone's auditions!
