Sam's Nuclear Life is a diary in audio form, the audience is treated as if they are in a post apocalyptic world and found an tape featuring this diary.
This audio diary is mostly spoken by the main character Sam, other characters like Mia are also featured both in their own parts, mixed parts, and in Sam his descriptions.
Sam was kind of an akward guy before the bombs dropped, and not exactly a survival expert, yet he has to make do and tries his best to help on the camp, have conversations with the others, and be excited and open with his audio recordings, throughout his diary we can hear him get more and more comfortable with being open, and getting more and more accepting towards his situation.
(slightly awkward yet excited)
well then.. hello to Sam's nuclear diary! Hmm , i should probably come up with a better name.
(frustrated yet the humor of the situation can be heard in his voice)
and guess what, when you find this tape I'll be fucking dead, not because of radiation or those annoying raiders, but because MIA IS MAKING ME GO INSANE
(shaken and emotional yet trying to keep calm and strong)
Well... I guess this is it then ha.. my last day on the diary, my last audio recording, you know, even tho i don't know who is listening to this, i feel like i got a band with you already, i mean hell, I've told you my entire life story by this point.. up to my death.. ironic.
Mia is kind of the "mean girl" of the camp, however this is not because she's truly mean spirited, it's just a tough outer shell as she sacrificed a lot to survive the war and is both traumatized and committed to survival, throughout the story she will warm up and become more friendly and open.
(mischievous and quietly excited )
Soooo i stole sam his little recorder and now it's my time behind the mic hahaha, your gone get a lil story from good ol' mia
(comforting and careful with word choice )
well.. that's true Sam, but we can't change what happened, what's happening, and who we lost on the way here, the only thing we can change is the now, and well... The future, so let's get working on it
(dying and out of breath yet trying to stay strong )
Well... At least we had a good fucking run ...didn't we?
Sam's best friend. Alex is both confident, quite good at survival, and optimistic.
(excited)oh shiiiit where did you get this bad boy ? Haven't seen a recorder like this in ages, damn that's some vintage stuff right there
(scared) ehm..and what if ..what if the wall doesn't hold..?
(encouraging but also sounding really ironic to make a point ) oh really now , the 'ooooh we will all die someday" guy is telling me he's scared to tell a girl he likes her because of possible aftermath? REALLY NOWW SAM?
Ava is sam's crush and is quite the excited bubbly type of person, she however has to deal with heavy loses trough out the diary but slowly becomes at peace and accepts her situation.
(giggling and in love) Sam your crazy you know that ?
(excited) oooooh maybe we will come across something cool like ehm, ehm, a... Bigger gun?
(at peace) well.. this is it i guess, as Sam would say, this is sam's nuclear diary, *sillently laughs and says "dork"* have a good night... Ava out.
BlackLight is the local raider leader , he has a rough voice and doesn't care for human life.
(pissed off sounding) oh now your fucked
(thinking he's won) what a fucking shit hole of a camp, couldn't even give me a proper fight, at least I'll enjoy the sound of you dying
Sofia is one of the youngest camp members and is quite the curious type.
(excited and curious) ooooh and whats this Sam? I always see you talking to it
(curious and confused but excited) a diary? What's that!?
I really could use somebody to help me gather all the possibly weeded background audio from non copyrighted sources (or create where possible) for this project.
Say something you think would fit
I would love to have a simple animation of an slightly futuristic audio recorder playing the audio (it would be mainly static apart from the lights flickering and changing from the screen)
Say something you think would fit
