Project Overview

(If you'd rather apply via Google Forms, here's the link! https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeaQu8Pd41M5accuzocDEGJdbFsJ1zuP4qS2N8LMPgSvNstbA/viewform?usp=dialog )

Hello! Thank you for your interest in helping out with my senior thesis film! I just wanted to give a general overview of what I’m looking for and what you can expect from working with me.

All roles are paid on a student budget through Venmo or Zelle only. Payment will be delivered after I receive your work.

Payment is as follows: EDDIE: $25 in total, SASHA: $20 in total, IVANNA: $10 in total, and Composer: $30 in total (I’m working with real limited funds here).

Must be 18+ to apply (the characters are 27 - 35).

I’m 100% open to remote work! As long as you have a mic that picks up little to no background noise, that works for me.

Primary communication will happen through Discord, so you will need to have a Discord account. My Discord is @nerdariu.

Audition lines in their corresponding tabs.

I will need all lines ASAP, or by April 17th at the latest. For the music, I need it by April 24th at the latest.

Sorry about the tight deadlines, unfortunately, that’s just how my thesis class is structured. I will email you to let you know if you got the part or not! Thank you again!

Paid: Flat Rate 25 USD
Role assigned to: ivymoody

Eddie Ross (she/ her, 27 y.o) - Stoic, aloof, cowardly


Eddie works as a tattoo artist, particularly known for her aquatic-motif designs. She appears carefree and unaffected by others, but it’s all a front. In reality, she ends up appearing either awkward or cold. In the past, getting too close to others caused her a great deal of trouble, particularly a falling out between her and her friend Sasha in high school, so she figures it’s best if she sticks to herself and hides how she feels. Deep down, however, she longs for a real connection. 


Total line count: 19


I’m looking for a deep, feminine voice, able to show emotion while remaining semi-flat. The range of emotions in this role includes being awkward/ anxious, annoyed/ frustrated, upset, remorseful, and (optional, would be awesome if you could!) distressed (light sobbing).

  • This isn't real. this isn't real, you're... just- tired… or something.

  • Sorry I uh, I'm a little tired. Anyways, uh, you in town for fun, or…

  • Listen I'm really sorry about what happened in the shop. I wasn't expecting to see you again. And I got scared… I'm scared because I hurt you back then, and I don't want to do it again. Because I... never, ever had someone as special in my life as you.

Sasha Edwards (she/ her, 27 y.o) - Enthusiastic, dorky, outgoing


Sasha is a Marine Biologist specializing in freshwater fish and was recently accepted as a researcher at Klein Aquarium. She’s known by her colleagues and friends to be a very chatty person, often tending to give unsolicited advice. She’s always on top of her work, being a bit of a workaholic and perfectionist. Her obsession with work has caused her to not have as many friends as she would like, even though she desperately needs a life outside of work.


Total line count: 14


I’m looking for an energetic, but not that high-pitched, warm feminine voice, able to fluctuate in speed of speech. The range of emotions for this role includes neutrality, excitement, and remorse.

  • Oh my god! Eddie, how are you? It's been too long!

  • Weeeeell, not to sound weird or anything, but I was scrolling on Bookface and your account popped up, so I went ahead and looked, just out of curiosity's sake! I saw that you work here, and then I saw your flash designs and remembered our promise, you know, that you'd give me my first tattoo. And thought it would be nice if I could get it on my arm, right about here.

  • Look, what happened happened. But all we can really do is move forward. And I'd love to move forward with you, if that's alright.

Paid: Flat Rate 10 USD
Role assigned to: vivianreed

Ivanna Borkowska (she/ her, 35 y.o) - Stubborn, strong, witty


Ivanna is the manager and owner of Insignia, the tattoo shop Eddie works at. She is very proud of her shop and cares for it attentively. There are certain ways she expects people to act and do their job, and when they don’t match her expectations she can get a bit peeved. This mostly applies to Eddie. She is outspoken about how she feels and her opinions, frequently expressing them. She has a charming sense of humor and charisma that people often enjoy. 


Total line count: 8


I’m looking for a gruff, semi-deep feminine voice. The range of emotions for this role includes mild annoyance, casualness, and frustration/ anger.

Language:
  • english

  • Hey Eddie, I'm going to the pub down the street with a few gals, you wanna tag along?

  • Save it. That was really fucking immature of you. What were you thinking, walking out on a customer mid conversation? To go take a smoke break?
