Cursed To Be My Own (Animators and Artists needed!)
Project Overview
Hello everyone! This casting call club audition is for Cursed To Be My Own. This show is created by me, and produced by daedreaming productions.
This show was created as a passion project so there will not be any payments for working on the pilot episode. However, we are hoping that after the pilot episode is produced on youtube we can get funded and commit to a full show, fully paid. For now, the benefits of the project are to have a great finished project on our portfolios, grow together as a community with a group of talented artists and creators, and to grow your social media audience with everyone that is part of the project.
If you want to be a part of this project, it is essential that you join our discord server; https://discord.gg/t9mAnvw2RG
The show is a fantasy, action-adventure with hints of romance, so there is a little bit of everything for everyone to enjoy. So, if you are still interested then you may be asking yourself, 'what exactly is Cursed To Be My Own about?'
Basic Plot For Cursed To Be My Own
It all starts in Solis. Solis is a world full of creatures, humans, Gods, and most importantly, magic. The show revolves around a Goddess named Etania. She is banished, cursed, from her home of Aether, and sent to the Kingdom of Concordia, where she stumbles upon a group of adventurers: Cyrus, Myrina, Augustus, Tiras, and Rune. They band together to help her break her curse but in the process, become wanted criminals.
However, their troubles do not end there.
Lurking in the shadows, a great evil has caught wind of Etanias' exile, and so they lay in wait, plotting her demise.
To overcome the trials and tribulations, they will have to battle their enemies, and maybe even the gods. They must also look within themselves and defeat their inner demons.

Rules and Expectations
These are the general rules that are required for everyone wanting to be involved in the project. There will be more detailed rules per category down below.
You must have discord to communicate. This is where we will host our meetings, gather with our team members, as well as send updates. So in your application, you must share your discord name.
The minimum age requirement is 14 years of age and older. For the role of Producer, the minimum age requirement is 18 years old. And for the leads, the minimum age requirement is 16 years old. All minors must have permission from their guardians when submitting applications.
We would like for people involved to have multiple skills; if you have something more you can offer such as advertising experience, webtoon experience, etc. be sure to list it with your auditions!
We may find a spot that suits you better than what you auditioned for, so if you are flexible be sure to state so!
While this is a passion project, we will be having deadlines that must be met! This is for our portfolios, so we want to make this as professional as possible! Be sure to have enough time to work on the project weekly to meet our deadlines, and be prepared to be in many meetings with your teammates! We will have voice calls often, so if you are too shy be sure to at least be willing to join the VC and feel free to type rather than speak, but all meetings are mandatory.
If you are selected you still do not have a secured seat; i.e. if there is a bad attitude, constantly not meeting deadlines, etc., you will be excused from the project and we will find someone else to participate.
Since the show needs an audience, if we want to get this funded we are expecting all creators involved to be open in sharing the show on social media platforms no matter how small!
The project will require many reshoots, redraws, and this takes a lot of time so be prepared for that!
