Johnny Backseed Show

Johnny Backseed Show

Project Overview

*UPDATE* It's done! Here is the final product:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rvZUV_QWZrA


The Johnny Backseed Show is a project I've been working on for awhile. It's audio only and it's in the format of a fake radio talk show. The purpose is to contain insane, over-the-top humor in it's far fetched world. This will be the fourth full episode of the series. Previously I have done all the voices myself, however since they get extremely small amounts of views I would like to have additional actors to help the series get noticed.

Brief Synopsis: Johnny and Marky run a highly successful radio show. Their show consists of several hilarious segments as well as hilarious commercials in between segments.

What I am looking for in voices: They need to be ridiculous and silly, however they must fit with the show's style; you must be able to convey some emotion (specifically yelling and/or anger). Most of the characters that are needed do not require an amazing microphone as they will have a telephone effect over it, however all the characters that are non-callers (the producer, ad announcers) must have decent quality. I am planning on having the entire project done by the end of the month so you must be very punctual in getting your lines in if you get a role. Note: if you are part of the cast, you must be able to take constructive criticism, you may or may not have to redo lines if need be.

If you are given a part: You must contact my email address ASAP at [redacted]. In your email please include: your character, the name you wish to be credited with*, and a link to a social media page you that you wish to have in the credits**. From there I will contact you with more details regarding the finalized lines. Your lines will be sent through email only. Not Skype or anything else.

Other things you should know:

*You will not be paid, this is volunteer work only.

*This is an one time only project, in the future episodes there will be a different cast of characters.

*I will be doing the voices of the host and co-host as well as a couple background characters (or any other part that isn't filled).

*To maximize your chance of getting a role: audition for as many parts as possible.

*Casting will be determined on the amount of available roles.

*If you get a role, contact me within 72 hours otherwise your position will be filled.

*If you are given a role and have contacted me but have not gotten a response after a few hours, please send it again, Gmail is known to lose emails.

If you are part of the project but no longer wish to be in it, contact me and I will fill the role with someone else.

If you have any other questions or concerns, please contact me at my email address.

Here is the entire series so far: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL9JYFRJKkkPDCQI3i3r74stb8LhDm7dZb

Good luck :-)

Latest Updates

  • Completed!

    It's finally done! Thank you all for helping out!

  • *IMPORTANT UPDATE*

    Well, scratch that last update; I've got choices for all roles (however there is still one actor interesting in trying out so I'll wait for him). Otherwise, that's it. I'll ponder roles over the next few days and take it from there. Thank you all very much for trying out! I'm VERY impressed.

  • Only Audition For Caller 2

    The combination of all of the auditions from all of the websites it's on, I have solid choices for everyone except Caller 2. Please do not audition for anyone else; I will not accept those.

  • 1 More Actor/Actress needed!

    Out of the two websites that I have this casting call on, I believe that I have some clear choices for all of the characters by now except Caller 2. I strongly recommend trying out for that role as it's highest priorty right now, and if I feel that whoever auditions for it is good enough to fill the role, I'll start casting parts.

  • Mockup Lines Are Being Recorded

    To help give the actors a good look on what I'm expecting for their roles, I'll be recording a whole fake version of the final product to help them get an idea of pacing and emotions as well as my finalized lines for them to reflect off of. If you are cast a part, I'll send you the scene that you are in to get a good idea of what I'm expecting on the frontlines.
