Nautilus (Episode 2-5) Casting Call

Nautilus (Episode 2-5) Casting Call

Project Overview

The first episode being completed ( https://www.soundcloud.com/kennerason/nautilus_1 )

We are ready to begin production of episodes 2-5. And with that comes the requirement of a new cast of brave space explorers, pirates, engineers, and a few extras now and again! 

Nautilus is a science fiction audio drama about a group of explorers and their adventures in the Pinwheel Galaxy, an unexplored no-mans-land filled with ancient ruins, nasty pirates, and a ton of colorful characters!

Currently we have the scripts for episodes 1-5 written and we have produced episode one already (link above) and we plan to continue producing and writing as time goes on. 

The time frame for this project is aiming to have the production (All currently written episodes) completely assembled by mid 2018 at the latest. There will be an expectation of slightly quick turnaround once you've been casted. 

Additionally, we have a discord wherein you will be able to communicate with the rest of the cast and crew and make any inquiries about the project to its creators.

Microphone quality is GREATLY appreciated in this case as we're aiming for a high production value and hoping to later down the line have this project turned into an animated series to accompany the audio only release.

Thanks for reading and good luck in your audition!

Latest Updates

  • Casting is nearly complete! Why not stay a while?

    First off, a MASSIVE thank you to everyone who auditioned! We've had some FANTASTIC voices grace our audition page and frankly we're flattered you'd take the time to put your voices to our little passion project! As of right now I've casted most of the roles, the only one uncasted meaning I have a bit more deliberation to do before me and my cowriter come to a conclusive choice. In the meantime I would like to invite EVERYONE who has auditioned or is interested in the project to follow the progress in our discord chat, we usually post things like sneak peaks and we talk about casting calls in there as well. For those interested at the bottom of this post there will be a link to the discord. To those casted, please also join the discord, from there we can get started on recording lines! Thank you all again for the fantastic experience we've had running this call! And to those who weren't cast this time fear not! We have many more episodes planned and many, many more characters in need of their own voices! Discord link: https://discord.gg/WHXsxVp

Harmee

Unpaid
Role assigned to: caseyschryer

Harmee was a genetic experiment who was experimented on for most of her life  and has only known freedom for the past three years. she joined the crew a year ago and finds peace in their company.


She is quiet and reserved, her cadence is very proper, however, when she is comfortable she is more energetic and bubbly.

If you can do accents try a variety.

She will be around for quite a bit in this series, in fact most of the first season is about her, so long term commitment will be required.

  • (Excited/Bubbly)Would you like to know what you talk about in your sleep?

  • (On edge/distracted (imagine saying it while glaring at your cat who just knocked over the vase))My name is Harmee. Sorry for the rough first impression. It’s not exactly my strong suit.

  • (Matter-o-factly/Chiding)I’m going with Ryder. Someone has to make sure he doesn’t do anything stupid.

There are going to be two engineers that are repairing the Nautilus while it is at a maintenance depot. They're kinda jerks and they're kinda stupid. Not much else to say about them really.

  • (Shouting over loud welding sounds (Please actually shout this))Hey, kid, you sure you wanna be in here? It’s horrendously dangerous.

  • (Stammering, an 8 foot tall frog man is going to eat you.)I uh.... Uhhhhh.... A-a-alright.

You're the announcer of an intergalactic SlipSpace Ring, basically a massive FTL highway entrance. Sound big, like a wrestling announcer.

The Shopkeep on the Intergate, they're in charge of a small gem and dye shop called Ignitos.

  • My, my, what a choice! I do fancy myself a bit of Red Quartz.

  • Represents healing of the soul. Something I’d say we all need.

  • Say, speaking of, missy I’m willing to bet a half off dye treatment that this red would go excellent with your hair! What do you say? Care for a bargain?

cast offsite

The doctor aboard the starship The Histrani, she's cold, degrading. And easily aggravated. She'll be around for more than a few episodes, but for right now she only has one line.

  • (Aggrivated, Yelling)Hannes. If you yell at Kyle ONE MORE TIME.

Chimil

Unpaid
Role assigned to: SlashleyVO

Chimil is the one of the many "Pinwheelnaughts" of the cosmos, he's a man of many years, having been on several expeditions into the deep unknown, and has managed to make a name for himself in the collecting of artifacts department. He has a robotic servant, Claus, who assists him and stays with him on his own planet CHIMIL-1. 


Chimil is a very important character in the story and will be around frequently during his time in the show. Please be flexible with commitment to the show.

  • (Demanding/Reassuring, sounding youngish)Do not worry citizen. The criminal has been apprehended. You can feel free to go back to your settlement now.

  • (Slight Excitement, talking very fast, sounds older)Well, it’s a bit of an outer rim world. But that’s one the Collective hasn’t put on the record. So I figure there’s some very pretty artifacts in there. But naturally with off-record worlds you know the drill.

  • (Like a 12 year old seeing a literal dinosaur)Well are you going to just stand there! Let me SEE!

Role assigned to: Jeromy

Claus is the Automiton servant of Chimil, he is over 700 years old and was reconstructed from bits and pieces found laying around.

He won't be around in as many episodes as Chimil, but he's great.

  • (Excited/Giddy)Found and restored from one of the Original Urbs! I’ve been told by Chimil I was “Quite the lucky find”!

  • (Explainy/Rambly)Bear in mind, my ancestors were just binaries!

  • (Frightened, hushed tone)Please make sure to keep all weapon discharges outside of the facility. Master Chimil is attempting to sleep.

Xie

Role assigned to: Mnemosyne

Xie is the new/current Engineer for the Histrani, she's a 120 year old Xel'Capian who is just kinda along for the ride. She doesn't want to hurt anyone, and she really doesn't want to be involved with anything that the rest of her crew often pushes her to do.

(The image we're using for her is an image we found on google search, we do not claim any credit for the artwork)
This role will have a long term involvement, commitment is required.

  • (Apologetic/congratulatory)Sorry for the rough first impression. If it’s any consolation you left the ship in great shape...

  • (Apologetic)Sorry sir…
