HIJACK: Episode 1 Access Granted
Project Overview
***VOICE ACTOR CASTING CALL***
Hello! A group of 3rd year Sheridan Film and Television students are doing a short, 8-minute Web-Series SCI-FI DRAMA film, titled ‘HIJACK CHAPTER ONE: ACCESS GRANTED’. Looking for ONE principal role.
Non-union, unpaid.
Your own copy of the completed film, as well as food and transportation will be provided.
SYNOPSIS:
The year is 2102. HANNAH and H4NK (a sentient AI robot) are in the midst of an Earth ruled by Cynder: a sole company that holds a grip over North America, from its economy to its community. They start searching in an abandoned robotics facility for a crucial chip that would allow H4nk to manipulate all of Cynder’s technology. When they run into an ill citizen that asks for their help, they’re torn between their mission or helping a stranger. The two find their way to maneuver the world filled with lies and deceit, deciding how far they’ll go to complete their mission… and who they should trust.
ROLE:
H4NK (Male, 20-30s): Is naive, gentle and powerful. He's Cynder's most advanced 7-foot tall AI robot that's repurposed to fight against Cynder. H4nk's biggest conflict is between helping people or using his power to take down Cynder. His voice has a lack of inflection and a structure to the way he speaks. (examples: K2SO from Rogue One, BAYMAX from Big Hero 6)
