(Please click "lyrics" to know what parts to sing using the bandlab link!)FOLLOW FOR FUTURE UPDATES!!What's up you guys? Welcome to the begninng Lumina-Rise!
For this project I am looking for actors and singers who can deliver clear, professional-quality audio with good equipment and a quiet recording environment. Ideally you should be using a microphone such as the Shure MV7, Shure SM7B, Rode NT1-A, or a higher-end Fifine model, or something comparable that produces clean audio without background noise, muffling, or distortion. Pop filters, boom arms, and basic sound treatment are strongly encouraged. Recording software like FL Studio, BandLab, or Audacity is completely fine, whatever you are most comfortable with, as long as it delivers strong, polished results.
LUMINA RISE is intended as a long-term project, not a one-off. I am looking for people who are reliable with deadlines, willing to take feedback, and genuinely dedicated to the project. Commitment is a must, and this is a team effort where everyone’s consistency will shape the final outcome.
It is a story based project with singing involved as they are in an idol group.
This is also a growth opportunity. As the project expands there will be room for you to branch out under your character’s name, building your own channel or creative work while still being part of the larger LUMINA RISE umbrella. You are not just contributing to one project, you are helping build something that can benefit
all of us in the long run.
Compensation will be based on the project’s success, with agreed amounts set fairly and transparently as we grow. The priority is making sure that everyone involved feels valued and benefits from the project’s achievements.
If you are passionate, serious about audio quality, and ready to commit to something bigger than a quick gig, I would love to hear your audition.
Please don't be disheartened if you're not chosen! We are also preparing a rival idol group for the progression of the story. This will be posted on the 15th of September! Not to mention, extra casts as well! There are several of chances to be involved in Lumina-Rise!
We’re choosing the cast right this moment — join the Stage on our Discord to be part of it!
Don’t wait, spots are being decided live!

This project has grown into something special because of all of you, and honestly, it’s one of the best things I’ve ever been a part of. With your help, it’s not just my project anymore — it’s our project.

Hey Everyone!
Today marks an important step for LUMINA✝RISE! While many of you may have expected new characters to be revealed today, what was planned for this date is something different: the confirmation of what’s coming next in the story.
The world of LUMINA✝RISE will not revolve around just one group. In Book 3, another band will take the stage, a rival group that will challenge everything our main cast has built. They will bring new energy, new conflict, and a completely different perspective to the journey! Excited isn't even a word I could use to tell you how excited I am for that arc!
Their designs, voices, and music are still under wraps for now, but consider this your official first look at the bigger picture! Auditions for the band will be coming soon, and there will be a further update for when they are cast! Please follow me to ensure you get those updates! (I'll do my best not to annoy you lol).
I'll keep further details under lock and key now, but sneak peeks and Project updates will be posted on our YouTube, Twitter and Discord! We have an amazing community already, so please do not hesitate to join, regardless if you audition or not!
I really want to make sure as much people as possible get to showcase their talent, and this is such a big project- The opportunites for everyone is endless!!

Hi Everyone! If you're on the LuminaxRise Discord, you've seen this message already. Honestly, I’m still wrapping my head around it. I’ve listened to so many auditions, over a hundred, and you guys have completely blown me away. The amount of talent here is unreal, and I feel so lucky that people as amazing as you are helping bring this dream to life. I mean it when I say I couldn’t be more grateful! So here’s the plan.
Casting is on the 17th. On that day, we’ll reveal all seven cast members, one by one on the General Practice Room 1 Voice Channel! It would be great for as much people as possible to get used to hearing everyone's voices too! We’ll tag them and post it on our 💬|general-chat so they know, and we all get to see the choice happen live! together we’ll finally see who makes up Lumina Rise!
Now, I want to say this because I know how it feels… please don’t get discouraged if you don’t get picked. I’ve auditioned before for an Idol Group and didn’t make it, and yeah, it hurt! But it wasn’t the end of my journey, and it won’t be the end of yours either! Actually because I went through something like that I really have made and adjusted a lot of roles that so many people here already have immense potential for! (EVEN THE SECOND BAND!! ) There are more opportunities coming, not just small ones but really important roles in the full Lumina Rise series. I’ve already got people in mind here in the server...
You’ve all reminded me that this project isn’t just mine anymore, it’s ours. So... Together we can make this story something incredible, something way bigger than I first imagined. And I'm super stoked to do it with you guys! Also soon you'll be seeing our editors, Mixers, Designers and ect! And I can't wait to introduce you to the technical team that will be helping us bring Lumina Rise to life! So please, keep supporting each other, keep hyping the cast when they’re revealed, and keep sharing ideas. And if you can, spread the word. Share Lumina Rise and all our socials anywhere you can!! Our Twitter and Discord are all in Welcome for anyone to follow and look at! It's going to be hard not posting spoilers tbh-
BUT Post about it! tell your friends, your family, your pets… even your favorite piece of cutlery- The more Luminites we bring in, the better. So I honestly can’t wait for the 17th. And I'm even more excited to get started on working with our cast! It’s going to be such a huge day, and I’m so excited to share it with all of you! So Super duper please If you know anyone who hasn’t joined the Discord yet, make sure they’re here before the reveal!!
Here are the links again below! Again, It's super important that you join the Discord! The live choosing for the cast will be happening there!

(CHARACTER DESIGN SUBJECT TO CHANGE)
VOCALIST
The joker of the group, and the second member to join. Always teasing and laughing, incredibly flirtatious, but hiding a deeper seriousness. His voice has a playful, sarcastic edge, but can drop into genuine sincerity when needed.

“Yeah I joke around… but maybe that’s because it hurts less than telling the truth.”
“Alright, fine! I know you like it when I put my serious face on. But only for, like… ten seconds.”

Cold, sharp, and collected. Leon rarely shows emotion, but when he does, it’s powerful. He is mostly, if not all the time, indulging in his love for technology. He is the last member to join the group. His voice is firm, deliberate, and precise, often with a detached tone.
