Circle Audio Series Casting Call
Project Overview
PLEASE WATCH VIDEO FOR GUIDANCE ON CHARACTER VOICING AND ACCENTS! This is NOT a paid project even though it shows it is.
From Darker Truths in Strange Fiction Studios comes a horrific tale of Levi, a paranormal investigator who seeks to find the truth about the connection between disappearing children and a supposedly haunted cabin. This story will be an audio drama that will contain graphic and triggering details such as cannibalism, mania, and ghosts. Due to its horrific nature, the production has a handful of requirements from the cast and crew:
- any VA must be 16 years of age or older to work with us without parental consent. However, due to the young characters in this story, we will accept those from 12-15 ONLY with PARENT/GUARDIAN consent. These youth will also not be permanent members of the crew and will be forced to audition as a public follower in future projects.
- you will be working with a large number of people, meaning that you must be able to be mature enough to handle that AND turn in lines on time since a group is counting on your responsibility. We will NOT tolerate late lines without former notice, and you will be kicked from the project and studio immediately if lines are not submitted timely. Also, if you notify us of a possible delay, we may remove you from the project, but you will not be kicked from the studio.
- we highly recommend you have discord. Everything that we do is connected through discord, so if you choose to work on the project solely through email, you may get delayed updates.
- please have previous experience with acting and/or voice acting before auditioning. This isn't a project for novices and requires much effort and talent.
- The project will not be paid immediately, as our main goal is gaining support as of now.
That being said, let the auditions commence!

Thank you! (Circle Auditions)
Over 50 auditions! Wow! Thank you to everyone who took the time to audition. Everyone at the studio is so appreciative about the attention this project has gotten. That being said, we cannot accept everyone who submitted an audition. As voice actor Jack Angel said, you are never rejected; someone else was just selected. That means you’re one step closer to your big break. Have patience and be willing to learn, and soon your chance will come. We will have results within the next week. If you are not chosen, you still have a chance to be a part of this project. We will be accepting MULTIPLE extras for various parts — police officers, mental patients, children, etc. If you are interested, please contact us by dms or email. ([email protected]) We will NOT hold a casting call for these. However, we may or may not have another one coming soon... stay on the look out, darlings. Darker Truths in Strange Fiction Studio -
Budget
Hello everyone! Thank you for auditioning! We at the studio apologize for the confusion, but we accidentally didn’t set the budget to zero. This project is one in which the cast will not be paid. However, if you are accepted, you can become a member of our studio and you can apply for jobs and parts that DO pay. The main priority for this production is to get followers and acknowledgement for the studio, cast, and crew. We hope that you chose to stay! Good luck... - DTiSF Studio

12 years old, she's an evil child, daddy's girl, she's the ringleader of the kids, leads them in a creepy song to brainwash intruders.
*we are making a cover of the song above, we would just like to hear you sing a verse from the original cover so that you can be familiar with it and we know that you can sing in a creepy way.
(creepy) 'Nothing's wrong, Levi, we're all safe, we can stay here and play games forever.'
(giddy) Daddy tells us to protect the cabin, but all we can do is keep you here. So you'll stay awake with us and wait for him to come home!

late 20s, she was 'like Levi' once, slow speech with a southern accent, as if brainwashed.
(excited) Oh, I didn't realize we had company... let's whip up one of our best!
(serious) We caught a new one, the trap isn't too far from here, I'm going to take you out there and see how well you do with hunting.

50s, a calming southern drawl, likes to crack jokes, but has a dry sense of humor.
(serious) You trying to run away, son?
(gentle) Have the kids been keeping you company? I know it can get lonely here, we all take turns watching the cabin just in case unwanted people wander in.

(surprised) Levi, you've been missing for the better part of a year. I thought you were going on an expedition, not attempting to fall off the grid.
(concerned) Just... don't do anything stupid, and know that if you don't come back within a week there will be people out searching for you.
She's Levi's counselor once he gets home. Light southern accent.
(calm) No, I think you've had some stressful experiences and you need help working through them.
(with authority) Levi, after many weeks of you telling me that same story with little variance, I have decided to trust you, if what you say is true, then those people must be stopped.
