EDAN

EDAN

Project Overview

WELCOME TO EDAN!

"EDAN" is a narrative-driven thriller being developed inside Dreams, a creation tool similar to Unity and Unreal, but its emphasis is to make it feel effortless and easy-to-use. 

This is a casting call for a video game, which has been a passion project, and I feel now is the time to share the story, and its characters, with others, and I need your help! Below is a synopsis of the story:

SYNOPSIS:

"EDAN" is a narrative-driven thriller set in the Eastern European country of the titular 'EDAN', which has been locked away from the rest for the world. Every aspect of Edan has been controlled by the Odessa Family who, for over 200 years, has become a Dictatorship that has long since manipulated and controlled Edan, and its people, essentially brain-washing the population to worship this family as gods -- but it soon turns out godhood and the Odessa's inextinguishable appetite for power, sees the latest Odessa wiping out the entire population of Edan -- over the course of three days, Edan is seized by an army known as The Providance, who reduce Edan's population down in one fell swoop -- and yet, kidnapping children and young adults, for reasons unknown.

The story has duel-protagonists / deuteragonists: one follows a young teenage girl called Eva Kovec who, over the course of those three days, finds herself on the run from the Providance as she traverses a country on the brink of collapse as she searches for her big sister, Lisah, after becoming separated from her.

Lisah's storyline focuses on her trying her best to reunite with Eva and over the course of the story, finds information that could potentially change Edan, and its people, forever.

If you are wanting a more in depth analysis into the story and the characters, you can check out a document that I created called EDAN | Casting Call.


SUBMISSION REQUIREMENTS: 

+ Age 18+ only: 

The nature of the dialogue and the themes are mature.

+ A clear microphone with as little background noise as possible:


  1. Please make sure that your audio is as clear as possible and that there is no background noise -- this will be a dealbreaker, unfortunately. Also, please use the same microphone during the process.

  2. Moreover, do not worry about editing the audio, I can do that on my end! Please send your audio files in raw -- so no noise removal, compression, etc, just as it is :)

+ No slating please 

+ Communication should be done primarily done through DISCORD (orangepixeljuice#3225)

+ A PayPal account will be the main way of payment.

  1. The payment for the project is "per project" -- but specifically what this means is that the dialogue will be given to the voice actor in batches, as not to overwhelm them, and me! Therefore, "per project" means "per batch" :) hope this clears it up a little! 

+ I highly encourage people of all race, gender and sexuality to apply!

+ HAVE FUN! 

+ We're thinking the accents should be natural Eastern European accent for the characters, but we're totally open to anything so long as they are natural and genuine!

Eva Kovec

Paid: Flat Rate 35 USD
cast offsite

Eva Kovec is a sixteen-year old who, previous to the events of the story, lives in a tranquil coastal hamlet, which is completely disconnected from the rest of the country, where she lives with her sister Lisah, who she does not have a good, healthy or stable relationship with.

Eva is selfless, empathetic and compassionate, but contrary to this, she can be reckless, and at times bullheaded in her decisions, which some see as Eva being a decisive leader... while it alienates others, even if she only cares about the company she keeps, and over the course of the story, wanting to make sure everyone is kept safe and alive. However, deep down, Eva craves companionship: being lonely is a curse to Eva and this fear of being alone is the primary drive that fuels Eva, and her decisions. She yearns for validation and feeling loved, as well as having a petrified fear of abandonment, two flaws that ultimately will be tested throughout the story.

  • (Having just escaped from captivity, feeling tense)


    If they catch us, we’re either dead or they’ll throw us back into those cells again -- and if they do… how do you think they’ll treat us then?

  • (Tending a sick friend, feeling slightly emotional but calm, soft voiced… deeply caring)


    I’m a little hungry, do you want anything too?

  • (Speaking to an older male who has rescued her. Feeling nostalgic, homesick even)


    You sound like my Dad. His voice was like yours, soft, compassionate. I like listening to it.

Lisah Kovec

Paid: Flat Rate 35 USD
cast offsite

Lisah is a thirty-something year-old woman who is Eva's mother, but has concealed her true identity after abandoning her shortly after childbirth, and ever since has held a burden and guilt over doing so, and felt it was easier to lie to Eva rather than telling her the truth. Lisah doesn't harbour the same braveness as Eva, who is sharp and clear in her actions, but Lisah is more world-weary and shows kindness and determination to reach Eva after everything that has happened -- and that determination, that drive to reach Eva -- is purely out of the fact she wants to finally tell Eva the truth, that she is in fact her mother, in hopes that it will remove the guilt she has felt since abandoning her.

  • (Speaking to someone who knows where Eva is, feeling sceptical )


    Are you sure they know where my daughter might be? I’m not doing this if there’s no chance at all. 

  • (Speaking to Eva, who is feeling emotional and guilty for leaving her)


    I am so proud of you. None of this has been easy for the either of us, but… you’ve been braver than I have been.

  • (Interpret it as you see fit -- otherwise, soft, tender, but desperate)


    Eva is all that I have. I have to try and find her… somehow.

Miroslava Amelin

Paid: Flat Rate 20 USD
Role assigned to: Jodi Hansen

Miroslava (or Miro for short) is Eva's best (and only) friend, who shares an unflinching loyalty to Eva, to the point she'd take her instructions and word as gospel. She's known for her striking beauty, but her deep insecurity and unstable home life has seen her flaunt it and her sexuality, which ultimately gives her the inner-power she so craves... but has given her a reputation as well. She is, however, a deeply caring character who is cunning and wry; her sarcastic wit is scathing, and it makes her for an interesting companion. Miroslava and Eva compliment each other: she sustains Eva's desire for love and companionship, a love that is given back to Miroslava... however, their relationship has become complicated after a brief encounter between the two, that to Miroslava isn't anything, but to Eva, it meant a lot.

  • (Speaking to Eva, feeling nostalgic, the reality of the world around her sinking in)


    I wasn’t a very good daughter, I disappointed her a lot. I lashed out, said some hurtful things. Do you think if she’d see me now, she’d forgive me? Would she be proud?

  • (Speaking to Eva, in disagreement)


    There’s nothing up there but insane people who rip your skin off your bones. And THAT is your plan? To go that way?

  • (A plan doesn’t go exactly as it was planned, sarcastic, feisty, wryly)


    Wow, great. Wonderful, so if that was Plan B… what’s the next one that you have?

Talos Kybonov

Paid: Flat Rate 15 USD
Role assigned to: AndreyKVA

Talos is a gruff, battle-scarred soldier whose political ideology and disdain for the Odessa Family gives him no needed temptations to go up against them, and the Providance that is destroying "his Edan". He comes off, however, as a menacing, arrogant and nasty human being but in reality his scars deceive a well-liked, friendly person who feels like he's navigating a kinder side of himself on the world's narrowest tightrope -- so despite the outbursts and unfriendly nature that may come out from him, he's a good person just trying to do good however he can.

  • (Speaking to Lisah, feeling bemused by a plan she has hatched)


    Oh yeah? Listen, you’re either very brave… or really stupid. 

  • (Speaking to Lisah, it’s urgent -- tense! They're in a hurry and DO NOT have the time to chat)


    Listen to me! Go to Sector 17, that’s where we’re taking ‘em. You just need to give me the word. Hide. Hide with everyone else until this all blows over. Let us finish this fight so you don’t have to.

  • (Speaking to Lisah, interpret it how you want, either way -- soft, close)


    You know, after all this time, I still can’t quite figure you out. I wish I could, though.

Paid: Flat Rate 15 USD
Role assigned to: katabelle

Yara Bozensijevic is a middle-aged woman who has found herself leading the Rebel Resistance, a fledgling militia who have taken up arms against the Providance. Yara's icy-exterior gives her an aura of solid calmness, and sharp, decisive leadership, but it also makes her feel cold and unwelcoming, and you get the sense that she's all too aware of it, and tries when she can to let down the wall from time-to-time. Specifically with Lisah she feels a similarity; a mother searching for her daughter resonates with her, which makes you wonder if she was in the same situation, and it ended badly for her?

  • (Speaking to Lisah, smirking, wry)


    There are things we know… but there’s still a lot that we don’t know. 

  • (Speaking to Lisah, interpret it how you want: either way -- frustrated, softly)


    It’s classified. But the Providance are being smart. They’re holding their cards close to their chests, and they’re flying around out there, under the radar, camouflaging in their surroundings. They know we’re curious -- and at this point they’re running circles around us because of it.

Armandek Sicev

Paid: Flat Rate 15 USD
Role assigned to: Ryan X. Messcher

Under ordinary circumstances, Armandek would be a teacher, living a repetitive nine-to-five, but now, as Edan descends into chaos thanks to The Providance, he has taken up arms, to help preserve what little he can, however he can. He's soft-natured and interesting, and a vast contrast to the other soldiers around him, but he's brave and courageous, and sacrificing his own life for a better cause makes him twice the man that he comes off as.

  • (Speaking to Lisah, giving instructions)


    There’s a radio tower just north of here, you’ll need to head there first and let them know you’re coming -- I’ve given you a code, use it to contact them and use it as a password. 

  • (Speaking to Lisah, mid-argument, exasperated)


    And I understand that, but your daughter could have been taken anywhere. Finding her is like finding a needle in a very large haystack -- and we're simply not finding it with the amount of men that we have.

Sharr Ngyuen

Paid: Flat Rate 15 USD
Role assigned to: Aries Lumague

Sharr Ngyuen has led an exodus of refugees and wounded souls out of a city and into the depths of an underground train station, only out of kindness and a raw determined need to save what little he can of Edan, and its people, but in the process has become a de-facto leader who feels the burden of caring for over ten-thousand people. He's deeply captivating and charismatic, charming and soulful, and has a boundless energy that is greatly needed in these bleak and desperate times -- just don't call him a war hero.

Asian actors only please!

EDIT: After a bit of thought, non-accented roles will work (ie: no Asian accent, but still want Asian actors only)

  • (Speaking to Lisah, not exactly confident in what she’s purposing, weary, yet intrigued)


    While I admire your… commitment? To finding your daughter, I want you to know that I understand where you’re coming from, but I want to know how you’re so sure she is still alive, even after all that has happened?

Paid: Flat Rate 10 USD
Role assigned to: Kenzie Mayne

Iolana is a tall girl who winds up taggling along with Eva and Miroslava as they traverse the country of Edan in search of Eva's sister, Lisah. She's a self-deprecating young woman, clumsy and a bit clueless at times, but she's also bubbly and sweet-natured.

  • (Speaking to Eva, sarcastic and a little self-deprecating, answering how she’s getting on)


    Well, other than being starving… I’m… I’m good. I’m okay.

  • (Speaking to Eva and Miroslava, TENSE, they need to leave an area FAST)


    We have to run! Now!

Szymun Anaistas

Paid: Flat Rate 10 USD
Role assigned to: romagarustovich

Szymun is a twenty-something old who is athletic, enterprising and attentive, but he doesn't get on with Eva at all. They both have large personalities and are so sure about how to go about things, it seems only likely they wouldn't get on, but a common ground they seem to agree on is saving people the best they can, and that's an area they seem to excel in as a team.

  • (Speaking to Eva, at odds with her, trying to remain cool-headed and calm… but failing)


    I am not disagreeing with you, I’m just… I’m saying we need a break and that’s it. Final. 

  • (Speaking to Eva, no longer feeling cool-headed, his composure is falling apart… angry)


    You’re not making any sense here! And you talk to us about being safe… safe would have been back in those cells, SAFE would have been anywhere but out here, on the run, FROM THEM.

Anton Vass

Paid: Flat Rate 10 USD
Role assigned to: AlexDewhurstVA

Anton's a bit of a lost soul, having lost his wife and daughter in the upheaval going on around them, but finding Eva has reignited a familiar love within him and seems to give him a brief second-chance to do what is right. He's a brief father figure to Eva, who gives her a bit of normality despite the situation that they're in, and like Miroslava, has a dedication to Eva and her plight to be reunited with Lisah, even if the task isn't so easy.

  • (Speaking to Eva, who is very ill, caring, a father-figure)


    I know, but you’ll still need to eat. This might be the last proper meal you’ll have for a while… I’ll get you some clothes set out. 

  • (Speaking to Eva, on the run, tense, even paranoid)


    We’ve spent far too long here… we need to make distance between them, and we need to do it now.

Carrie is a young woman Eva and Miroslava (no relation) find later on and rescue her from the clutches of the Providance. She's headstrong, and you get the sense she's playing a long game her to survive, and keeping Eva close enough to do so. She is also mature and quite wise.

  • (Speaking to Eva, having just narrowly escaped death -- tense, and restless)


    Where are we even going? They have this entire place on lockdown! We just survived four things that I never thought in my life I’d survive. And now we’re lost?

Tuesday

Paid: Flat Rate 5 USD
Role assigned to: katabelle

You get the feeling that Tuesday has never led anything in her life, but thrust into a situation that sees her overseeing an entire battalion would give anyone whiplash -- but not Tuesday, who thrives for the challenge, and is pretty darn good at it, too. Smart and wry, Tuesday is fighting for the Rebel Resistance and leads a battalion. Who knew in the time of war you find out you're a natural-born leader?

  • (Speaking to Eva, but comes bearing bad news --)


    Well the bad news is, is that the last bus heading to the airport left about twenty minutes ago, and there won’t be another. That was it. But luckily for you, I’ve got people up north I need to meet anyway, so I’ll be taking you.

    Well? Since you’re the tour guide here, do you want to answer that one?
