SHELL - Sci-Fi Audiodrama (Round 2)
Project Overview
Earth is empty. A decades-long war forced humanity to flee the planet, abandoning it to the creatures they created. Colonies mine minerals and water as they travel the solar system, colonizing planetoids and moons. But the war may have followed humanity to the stars...
Follow a group of space miners in their fight to survive, with only their wits and powered armor to protect them from the vacuum of space, pirates and each other.
No, you’re not seeing things: this is another casting for the upcoming audiobook-style production of SHELL!
I’m excited for the chance to work with you! I’m a writer, voice actor and podcaster, and I’m thrilled to share one of my pet projects with you.
SHELL is an original, fully-casted, produced and scored short story, told in audiobook style (take a listen to the concept episode linked above to get an idea of how the project will sound!). The project contains depictions of violence, and language consistent with PG-13 films.
What You Should Know
Your Audition
Please record in AABBCC style, submitted as WAV files. And, yes, you can certainly audition for multiple roles. Label your file as FirstName_LastName_Role.wav. Please include your Discord name in your audition notes, as well as what mic and software you’ll be using for recordings. Feel free to include any notes on your creative decisions (limit 1-2 lines).
Your Work
If selected, you will be expected be a team player, a friend, and a good human throughout production. We’ll also be operating on a US-centric timezone schedule, so anywhere from PDT to EDT will be best adapted for this project. This project is unpaid, but as my collaborators know, I’m not afraid of plugging those that work with me by way of recommendations, and continuing work with them in the future.
This project will be vocally intensive and character driven, including various screams and emotionally intense character moments.
Lastly, all may audition regardless of background, but precedence will be given to those applicants who match the character’s demographics.

Captain Ergo is a war dog. His strategies have saved the Terran Fleet multiple times during the Pirate Incursions. He’s venerated, but fallen from grace, and now has a shot at redemption.
Ergo is baritone, gritty, authoritative, and has no reason to share his motives. He’s private, and leveraging that to his advantage.
(Relaxed, direct)
Bring us about. Level us to 1G thrust, and rotate 45 degrees starboard. Dawson, I need the readouts from SPADAR (SPAY-dar): what’s the asteroid density here?
(Frank, cool)
Corporal, if you’d wanted to be a part of the assignment, you shouldn’t have mouthed off to the one who fixed your damn mistake.
(A rumbling volcano)
I want you to remember something. When you float off into space, when you circle the Kuiper belt, alone, and if by some miracle you survive longer than the asteroids splattering you… I’ll find you.
