REVOLT: Wargames (Part 1)
PAID CASTING CALL
REVOLT: Wargames is a novel set in a futuristic world where athletes (Gladiators) with superpowers (Godsends) battle each other in arenas for glory. There are many teams (Factions) that compete; they tend to be made up of five Gladiators with their own distinguished position/role in the team (Ace/Captain, Second, Tandem Double, Fifth, and on rare occasions, Floating Sixth). The main factions explored so far are Red Dragon (Shiro’s father’s legacy), Tower of Babel (Eli’s adopted legacy), and The Family (Kuro’s family’s legacy). More detailed (and exhaustive) info about the novel, the sport, its characters, its world-building, rankings, and timelines can be found here: https://godsendsaga.com/
WARNING: SPOILERS THROUGHOUT AUDITION SHEET
The story is intended for mature audiences and contains explicit language, the mention of drug usage/dependence, abuse, and extensive amounts of graphic violence.
There will be LOTS AND LOTS of combat efforts (moans, groans, grunts, panting, wheezing, coughing) involved for the recordings of this audio drama.
Project Details:
This project is going to be a fully dramatized audiobook version of “Revolt: Wargames.” Please find the original title here: https://godsendsaga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/Book-1-Prologue-Sample-1.pdf
The title’s word count is 107,526.
The project is PAID
Upon successful casting we would like to ask for the lines to be turned over within 2 weeks in a per chapter format.
Recordings will take place either in live-directed sessions or self-directed sessions with the submitted audio requiring a minimum of 2 takes per line.
The role of NARRATOR will not have live-directed sessions and will not require 2 takes.
In relation to AI, please find the following clause which is included in our agreement: "Client shall not use the recorded voice assets to train or create a synthetic reproduction of Talent’s voice for text-to-speech and/or artificial intelligence algorithms, or to sell or distribute the assets for such purposes to third-party companies, without Talent’s express and informed consent."
Audition Details:
DO NOT SLATE
1-2 takes ABCABC format; if character has specified accent, PLEASE ATTEMPT it for at least 1 take, even if you aren’t trained, familiar, or confident in it
For the Japanese accent we are looking for “anime-esque” delivery; the people from Japan have been speaking English for 4 generations but will have developed their own way of speaking which the creator imagines sounding like anime dub voices
If auditioning for NARRATOR or MITSUHARU just 1 take of 1-2 lines is sufficient as the sample lines are quite lengthy
It’s possible to have a main or supporting role along with an extra role as long as the voices are distinct enough from each other and the characters don’t interact within the same scene, so you’re HIGHLY ENCOURAGED to audition for as many roles as possible
Our overall goal in casting extras is to make the time spent recording and payment received worth it for the actors; we plan to cast talent that can perform multiple roles in the hopes that the total word count exceeds at least 500 words
Note some extras do not have an audition line; we plan to cast those characters based on the performances from other character auditions; please feel free to attach/link additional demo reels that display your range and say specifically who you’d be interested in voicing (extras are listed in ascending age order)
mp3 or wav format, RAW or minimal cleanup; please do not submit any auditions with background noise as these will be instantly rejected
