PAID - Night Shift - urban fantasy podcast - CASTING MORE ROLES
Joseph David Spence for Austin
Mid 20s to mid 30s, he/him
Distrusting, secretive, confident facade
Austin is a Shade, someone physically transformed by contact with the mysterious Veil. His mutations are more extreme than most, and the cause of traumatic circumstances he has been through in the past, giving him good reason to distrust people. Unlike other Shades, he is unable to hide in plain sight, and he is intimidating to look upon. Despite this, he comes across warmly, especially to others like him. He speaks in a rough manner that suits his appearance, but this isn’t his natural voice.
This role will feature at the end of season one, paying $50 for the first 25 lines then $1 per line following that. If we're able to reach season 2, this will become a major supporting role instead.
(casual)
“Austin works fine, let's drop the formalities. You're the one with the wild ideas then. And who might these two be?”
(giving a speech, recalling past trauma)
“ I did cruel things there, things I’m not proud of. I was everything dangerous they tell you about a Shade, all wrapped up in one ugly monster - as far as I thought, anyway.”
(reassuring)
“I haven’t met non-Shades who'd stick their neck out for us before. It's a novelty. If you trust him, I trust him. It's nice to see, honestly...kinda thought it was going to be us against them, nothing more to it.”
