Occhi Lucidi- SVA Short Film
Michael Matarese for Jakob
Jakob is a man in his mid-20s. He is awkward and reserved around others, but on his own he's louder and more sarcastic. His snarky personality comes out when he talks to EYE, who is a manifestation of his own negative thoughts. He struggles with social anxiety and frequently argues with himself over how to handle situations. He is constantly tired/ exasperated. He wants nothing more than to be able to hang out with his best friend Max, without second guessing himself and being afraid of ruining the relationship somehow.
In my head he kind of sounds like Mordecai from Regular Show, but any male voices in the right age range are welcome.
This is a surreal horror film, so there will be cartoon body horror that will require screaming/yelling/loud gasps/pained noises. If you could include a sample of various yelling in your audition that would be much appreciated!

Don't! No! Stop! Don't...don't...say that.... (Angry/frantic to defeated/slower)
(Frantic, out of breath) This is so stupid, this is so stupid, just shut the hell up!
I said...SHUT UP ALREADY
