Chosen: VA Casing [Wave #2]

Chosen: VA Casing [Wave #2]

Project Overview

Hello again!

We are Dark Helm Entertainment, a studio who are currently working on a Modern-Greek mythology slice of life 2D animation with hints of comedy, romance, and tense hijinks! Our project is called Chosen, and finally, we are ready to recruit some talented and wonderful souls to voice the characters we have poured our hearts and love into.
 

“Five mortals are picked at random by the fates to become the champions of five goddesses from Mount Olympus after a heated exchange. Who will produce the best champion, or have the goddesses lost their touch?”

Thank you all so much for the love and support we received for the first wave of VA casting. We are absolutely blown away by the sheer number of auditions across Discord and the casting call! We ended up receiving 250 auditions, which have completely exceeded our expectations. 

This is our second wave of casting for our characters, and boy, do we have a lineup for you all! We will be holding this casting period for 4 weeks. Here is how things will work:

  • Auditions will be open from today [05/10/25] till Sunday, 9th November!

  • We will start giving feedback weekly after week 2!

  • Weeks 4 and 5 will be when we start our callback process!

  • We will close auditions on 9th November and announce those who are cast on Sunday, 16th November. 

For this wave, we are looking for voice actors for the following characters: 

  • Amphitrite

  • Apollo

  • Ares

  • Asclepius 

  • Eros

  • Hephaestus

  • Hestia

  • Poseidon

  • Nyx

  • Hypnos

  • Thanatos

  • Persephone

If you want to audition, please follow these requirements:

  • Please do multiple takes of each line (ABCABC or AABBCC, whichever you’d prefer)

  • Audition for as many characters as you’d like! (But you are limited to 3 attempts per character)

  • Leave the following information with your audition: Discord Username, Age, Timezone, and what equipment you used!

  • Be 18 or older! There are no expectations for this rule, no matter how good your audition is! 

  • If you want feedback, please let us know in your audition comment!

  • Slates in your audition are not mandatory, but are welcome.

  • Proficient in English [Accents are always welcome!] 

!Disclaimer! 

We are looking for people who want to be around for the long term, since we are planning to have at least 3 seasons' worth of content (~35 Eps). And you must be okay with signing an NDA.
