Earlier Deadline
Hi everyone!
With careful thought, I have decided to move the deadline sooner to JULY 28 12PM MDT to give more clearance for casting.
I apologize for the changes with the deadline.
‘Sa Anino’ is an audio drama created by aplums of Aplumisa Studios, and written with Guhit. The project was initiated to create an opportunity for Filipino voice actors to showcase their voice acting talent in both Tagalog and English languages. The audio drama features a unique take and interpretation of a mythical creature in the Philippines.
Note from the creator:
Thank you for your interest! This is a paid project, however please take note that I’m only a retail part-timer who will soon be a full-time university student. This means that I won’t be able to pay you the proper standard rates, but I would hate to leave you with nothing! Please refer to the characters and their rates below. The main characters’ lines can range around 400 words or so.
I can’t wait to hear your voices and good luck po sa inyong lahat!

(teasing) Ikaw naman! Sponsor mo ako, and I know I haven’t been working with you for long, but I think I know you enough na to recognize the protectiveness in your voice. Goodness, Dante, Teresa’s eighteen now—
(condescending) Wala rin tayong magagawa doon, iha. While democracy is the main driver of Philippine politics, the true power to decide this country’s future still falls in the hands of those already sitting on the top.
(serious, authoritative) Sinuwerte lang tayo the first time na-leak ang information, pero we cannot risk a second.
