Production Context

This is a multicast production with a female narrator already cast and recording. An editor/audio engineer is attached and will handle mastering, sound consistency, and cleanup. For these roles, we’re simply looking for the right voice and personality for the male characters.

 

Story Vibe

This is a character-driven sci-fi story where humor and action run side by side. Think sharp dialogue, emotional momentum, and characters who keep their sense of humor even when things go sideways.

The protagonist is a snarky, impulsive female lead who tends to overestimate her odds of success and jump in anyway. The male characters react to this energy in different ways.

 

Audition Notes

• One take per character is fine

• We’re looking for distinct, characterful voices that bring personality to the roles.

 

Optional: To get a sense of the tone and pacing, you’re welcome to listen to a short, unlisted narration sample here: [YouTube link]

LIST OF CHARACTERS: MALE

3 main male characters + 12 minor roles (minimal lines)​

​

JACOB

Age: Early 20’s

Core vibe: Smart, grounded, charming. Cool without trying to be cool—nerd-next-door energy with real confidence under the hood. Curious, witty, and naturally likable. He doesn’t try to be charming: he just is. His flirting can fumble, but his intelligence never does. When it comes to science or tech, his cool is effortless and real. Jacob has solid wit. He banters frequently with Jinx (the lead), whose style is sharp and snarky. Jacob’s humor should be smooth, playful, and grounded. He’s never trying to out-snark her, but balancing her energy with timing, and ease. For a loose vibe check, here's a clip of Steven Yeun as Mark Grayson / Invincible (easy casual wit, confident, voice is mid-tone range, 20’s): LINK

OWEN

Age: 40’s

Owen is grounded, patient, and quietly reassuring. He's a steady center in surrounding chaos. His authority is effortless and unannounced. He speaks with measured calm, deep care, and unwavering composure, guiding others without ego and never raising his voice. His warmth comes from patience and kindness, not force.

BAYNE

Age: 30’s

Bayne is polished, elegant, and unflappable. A savior in his own mind, he wields power through restraint rather than force. His voice is calm, articulate, and emotionally distant. He is so composed it’s unsettling. He never raises his voice; when anger surfaces, warmth simply disappears. He doesn’t sound like he’s trying to intimidate. He sounds like he already won. Think : Agent Smith (early portrayal) , controlled disdain, quiet menace, power through calm

MINOR CHARACTERS WITH MINIMAL LINES

 

UPSET DENIZEN 1 

AGE: 18’ish yrs

Human. Shaken. Unraveling, but understandably so. Something essential had been taken, and he hadn’t found solid ground since.

​

​

​

​

​

​

​

​

 

 

 

 

 

 

CUSTOM AGENTS

Humorless. semi-translucent, geometrical alien welcome, uh..., party. Utterly emotionless, calm, compliance zealots.

THE BOUNCER

Soft edges with the calm confidence of someone who could flatten the room.

​

​

​​

​

​

​

​​

​

​

​

​

​

​

​

 

MALE INSIDE BAR aka: THE TROUBLEMAKER

Wore charm and practiced warmth. Too smooth, too attentive, always scanning for weakness to prop up his authority. More con artist than predator. A wannabe authority type.

​

​

​

​

​

​

​

​​

​

​

​

 

 

THE FINISHER

Seven glides of muscle and spite. The kind of guy who didn’t start fights; he just finished them and moved on.

 

 

 

 

​

​

​

 

 

 

 

 

 

​
​

THUGS 1,2,&3

Big & Menacing: He’s pure intimidation with no nuance. That snarl says “I solve problems by standing closer to them.”

 

Smart’ish: Competence, detachment, and just enough smarts to not mouth off about their boss.

 

Dumb-dumb: He radiates chaotic uselessness. He’s the one who panics first, escalates fastest, and absolutely folds the moment something goes wrong. He exists to make scenes messier.
