FNAF Sonder (casting #3)
Project Overview
NOTE: Early castings are for VAs that have previously worked on this project, and I have asked personally if they'd like the role! Other castings will be given out towards or after the deadline.
THIS IS A FAN PROJECT, AND ALL WORK IS VOLUNTEERED. THIS IS AN UNPAID PROJECT.
DISCORD IS REQUIRED FOR THIS PROJECT. PLEASE INCLUDE YOUR USERNAME IN YOUR AUDITION.
Five Nights at Freddy's originally created by Scott Cawthon.
ABOUT THE PROJECT
FNAF Sonder is an AU (Alternate Universe) created by me and my friend! We plan on retelling the entirety of the FNAF timeline from FNAF 1-UCN! Newer games will likely not be included. (Videos will be posted on YouTube.)
Through this retelling, we want to show how the events shown in the games effect everyone as a whole, and not only focus on the horror aspect. The animatronics will (of course) have their own time to shine too.
This project will likely have more psychological horror than anything else. It will also cover themes of intense guilt, grief, etc. But along with the bad things will be some fun as well!
ABOUT PRODUCTION
Videos will be slow to come out. We're still at the very beginning of the story! Please do not audition if this will be an issue for you.
The entirety of the series will definitely take years to complete. But no matter what, I don't plan on cancelling it.
OTHER NOTES
Minimum age to work on this project is 16. If you are younger, do not audition.
Do not include AI in your audition in any way.
LGBT friendly :^) safe space for everyone!

* IMPORTANT CHARACTER. Although her appearance will only be in one video, it'll be longer than all of the ones I've posted so far (unsure how long, I'd estimate over 10-15 minutes.) Much of that video will involve Marie, as she was an important part to the opening of the diner!
VOICE DESCRIPTION: Middle - higher pitched. Southern accent, not extremely heavy.
ABOUT: Marie is the childhood best friend to Eleanore, and high school sweethearts with Henry. Bubbly personality and supportive of everyone she can be, but knows when enough is enough. She enjoys fashion design and sewing, and helped with the opening of the diner.
Unfortunately, she would later be diagnosed with a life threatening illness that would cause her untimely death three years after her daughter Charlie was born.
WHAT TO EXPECT
- You'll need to be able to portray a range of emotions! She's a more serious role, so keep this in mind before auditioning. (Basically, as long as you can sound happy, upset, and sick, you should be good)
- female young adult
- female adult
(thinking) "Well, after that whole restaurant is dealt with, I suppose... I could open a boutique! Somethin' like that should be fun!"
(worried, upset but trying not to cry) "No, no, it's gonna be fine, the doctor said it isn't a problem for now. I just... I worry about... my future. Will I even have the time to do what I want? And... SHOULD I even bother? (pause, continue at a lower tone/mumble) I've... always wanted children. Would it be selfish to have any now?"
(sick, very weak, but trying to stay positive) "Hey... it'll be alright. Even if... things don't pan out the way we thought, you still have so many people here that love you, just as much as I do."
* IMPORTANT MAIN CHARACTER. As you might imagine, Circus Baby will show up throughout the entire series, as she is a main(?) character! As I've said in multiple places, this series will likely take years to complete, so keep that in mind before auditioning!
VOICE DESCRIPTION: Do your best impression of Circus Baby! It doesn't have to be 100% perfect.
- Feel free to do impressions of any of her canon lines! I just picked some I happen to like :^)
ABOUT: Canon info applies. Not much, if anything at all, has been changed in regards to personality.
- You will also be voicing Scrap Baby if you are accepted into this role :)
"I was in a small room with balloons and a few tables. No one sat at the tables, though. But children would run in and out. Some were afraid of me; others enjoyed my songs."
"You’re in the scooping room. Do you know why they call it 'the scooping room'? It’s because, dummy, this is the room where they use the scooper. I thought that would be obvious."
"There is nowhere to go... when we look like this. But if we looked like you, then we could hide."
* IMPORTANT CHARACTER. Will only show up in Volume 1, I'm planning for him and his friend group to have a small chunk of V1 to themselves to build on how they all met and became friends!
VOICE DESCRIPTION: Higher pitched, doesn't typically raise voice / kind of quiet (he's awkward)
ABOUT: Jeremy is a bit socially awkward, but kind hearted. He always wants to do what's right, wanting to be like his dad who is a police officer. Though, he can't help but be curious about what it would be like to do the wrong things sometimes.

"Uh, yeah! I just moved in actually. My names Jeremy! What's yours?" (pause) "Cool, nice to meet you!"
(nervous) "I didn't think it would be a big deal, I mean... they don't actually seem that bad. You would probably like them too!"
"Ahahaha, yeah, that sounds fun!" (pause, now nervous) "Wait a sec... do you think we're gonna get caught if we do that?"

VOICE DESCRIPTION: Any pitch, slightly monotone (but don't overdo it!)
ABOUT: Logan doesn't have many friends, and is often on his own, especially over summer vacations. The two friends that he does have aren't exactly all that nice, but he doesn't notice.

- His story in V1 will be about him getting away from his fake friends, and finding people that actually care about him.
- child
- male child
"Oh, yeah, they're always like that. Haha, no wonder why nobody at school hangs out with them." // (slightly serious) "You should probably avoid them too."
(annoyed (not yelling)) "I told you I don't like them, so why would I even bother agreeing to it? I don't care who you decide to hang out with, just don't try to include me in it. I don't want to be dragged into trouble."
(upset, but cheering up) "I don't really know why you bothered to do that, but um... thanks."
* IMPORTANT CHARACTER. This character will (likely) only be involved with Volume 1, and won't show up again afterwards. They are important to Volume 1, and will have decent screentime.
VOICE DESCRIPTION: High pitched, snobby.
ABOUT: Beth is a stereotypical snobby rich kid. She's friends with Logan and Carmen, though only considers Carmen to be her best friend despite how it's always the three of them hanging out. She enjoys making others upset, but does it in such a way that she doesn't ever really get in trouble.
(Elementary school age.)

- female child
"Don't be like that, it'll be funny! C'mon, please! Just do it!"
"You're SO gross! Are you kidding me?! I can't believe I ever talked to you!"
"C'mon Carmen, let's go. Oh! And Logan too! Hahaha!" (laugh should sound slightly malicious)

* REOCCURRING CHARACTER. This character will show up multiple times for a couple Volumes, but isn't as important to the plot and may be more of a background character. Please note that episodes will take a long time to come out, so it might take a few years for this role to be finished!
VOICE DESCRIPTION: Feel free to go for anything!
ABOUT: Mr. Fitzgerald is the father to Jeremy F. and Susie, and works as a police officer around Hurricane. Typically pretty up beat, chill, and likes telling jokes. He is a stickler for the rules, and tends to have very black & white thinking. He tends to let things slide when it comes to his family, his reasoning being that he knows them best, and knows they aren't bad people.

"Yeesh! Well, listen bud. I know my cooking may not be the best, but if you eat it all, we can go get some ice cream. How's that sound?"
(Serious) "So, as I understand it, you were the last person to see him exit the building. Did you notice anything suspicious? Even the smallest details will help."
(In an argument) "I know, I know! You're upset, I'm upset, we're ALL upset about this! But listen, you have to understand that me and my team are all doing our best. We can't do any more than we've already done. Alright?"

Throwing this in here too.
Looking for an artist or two to help out with the visual aspect of the AU! I've been doing most of the work myself so far, so it would be helpful to have someone else.
WHAT I'M LOOKING FOR
- Character artist & background artist (you can be one, or both, let me know which!)
WHAT TO EXPECT
- Deadlines will be a month long at minimum, and will be extended depending on what needs to be drawn.
- I will send projects to you in small chunks, so you won't be overwhelmed if there's a lot.
- I will provide storyboards, character references, and background references. For the most part though, I will give you creative room in terms of facial expressions, poses, etc.
- You will only be set to work on Volume 1, but if you want to continue work afterwards I'll keep you on!
I haven't worked much with other people regarding art like this, so sorry if it might be kinda messy & unprofessional LOL
Also please don't use AI in your audition I'm not putting AI in my project
*Say something you think would fit*
