[PAID] Manware: an animated scifi zombie apocalypse series

[PAID] Manware: an animated scifi zombie apocalypse series

Project Overview

Manware is an animated sci-fi zombie apocalypse series set in the year 2100. In this future, humans have computers implanted in their brains at birth called roots. After a root infecting virus spreads across the globe, three teenagers must combat zombies, bandits, and each other to survive and save the world.

This project is aimed for a teen audience, so there is some violence, blood, and swearing like "damn" "crap" "ass" and "shit". But the characters never say "fuck" or anything worse. Actors must record lines and send audio via google drive within two weeks of receiving the scripts. There's NO limit to the amount of characters one actor can audition for, the more the merrier! All actors will receive payment via paypal.

Manware is a reboot of Cybernetic Zombies 2,100. You can watch the original single episode here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YNcFtRH2nBM The reason I'm rebooting the show, is because I didn't plan the original series out enough. This time I'm going in prepared with all 9 episodes planned and fully scripted. Each episode is be uploaded to my channel youtube.com/TheApoke as they are completed.

This page has slightly spoilers for the series, so if you're not interested in auditioning, and would just like to watch the episodes as they come out, I recommend you don't scroll down.

  • THANK YOU ALL!

    No seriously, thank you all so much! This page just passed one hundred auditions, and I'm blown away. This show's something I've been brainstorming since late 2017, and I couldn't be happier with the auditions I've been receiving. I'm really considering casting most of the characters now, but I'd also like to wait 'til closer to the deadline incase some people need time to get set up. You guys are making this really hard to decide, in a good way. Thanks!!! :D
