Poetry Reading

Poetry Reading

Project Overview

This is an audio reading for a personal poetry project that I hope to eventually have animated and posted online. The poem deals with themes of gender identity and body dysphoria. The aim is to have the poem read by two voices in unison, mine and yours.

I had an American or English accent in mind for this poem but please autition in your natural accent so I can hear a narration more true to your speaking voice.

Disclaimer: The subject matter may be triggering for some people. Please check-in with yourself and ensure that you would be comfortable recording this before auditioning. Stay safe and thank you for reading!

This casting call is open to trans women and cis women and highly encourage any trans actresses to give it a go. It's just a matter of finding the right voice for this poem.

A basic narration in your natural voice is absoltuely fine. You are of course free to emote and inflect as you see fit, but it doesn't need to be overperformed.

The audition lines are from three seperate poems.

Language:
  • english
Voice description:
  • british (london)
  • narration
  • nonbinary
  • female adult
  • american
  • It once bore fruit when I was young, Curated for an eager tongue, That wound around in dripping prayer, And ate until the branch lay bare.

  • The rift started closing, she blinked a goodbye. I tried to blink back, only managed to cry. Then she was gone, and it was just me. Just me, not the ‘she’ that may never be.

  • For love I consumed - Remains now withered will rebloom. A fungal fragrance fills the air, Miasma thick on branches bare For you I consumed - Hunger ebbs and thought resumes. I growl for more with teeth laid bare, And whimper when you are not there.

Hey animators,

It occurred to me that I should also put an Animator role on the project so I can see some of the wonderful animators of CCC!

Please share your showreels, previous animations, or socials for your submission.

Payment would be discussed based on your animation rates. While I don't have a whole lot of cash to throw around, I understand how much time and effort goes into animation and would like to ensure I am being as fair as I can be with compensation.

I estimate the runtime for the audio recording being around 2:30, which I know is a hefty project for animation. We may look into the possibility of having a few seconds of animated shots between some keyframe animations that are more fixed like that of an animatic. 
 
But first things first, lets see your amazing art syles!
