COMPLETE: Short Story 'To The Death' Thanks everyone!

COMPLETE: Short Story 'To The Death' Thanks everyone!

Project Overview

First raw cut of audio (a few things missing, quiet spaces, etc) available on soundcloud: https://soundcloud.com/granger-tales/the-the-death-raw-cut


Inspired by the sheer amount of auditions for other short stories (most featuring Batman), I decided to bring out some old, dead stories to the light, and have them narrated by YOU, destined to be easy-listening podcast type Youtube videos.


If this project ends up with a lot of calls, I will be more likely to create more projects, allowing more chances for exposure for everyone, and hopefully everyone gets a warm fuzzy feeling out of the whole experience. And who knows? If this sort of thing takes off, I might have some paying offers down the road. But for now, I want to hear you bring these stories to life.


PLEASE:

- Have a clear mic. We need to be able to understand what you're saying!

- Have an attitude that suits the part. No Liam Neeson monotones, please (although if you're Irish you're absolutely welcome to go one better).

- Have an email address you check often, or at least check your messages on this site regularly, so I can contact you if necessary.

- Contact me if you didn't get casted for this project, but would like to be in something similar. I'm likely to do more if there is interest, like all of us creatives!

- Don't be afraid to re-audition if you're worried about what you sent in. If you think you can do better, great!

Thank you and good luck! <3

Role assigned to: solarisphoenix

A voice that can change with the tempo of the story - it will start off soothing, like your average audiobook, but build up quickly. Embody the character you're describing. All accents/lisps/exaggerations accepted!

  • Her steps made the floorboards creak, and her spine froze up and twisted with every sound she made. She was the only thing making sound in this empty house, apart from the house itself. She wished her partner – the 'professional photographer' with the million dollar camera lenses – had shown up to work. He couldn't be reached and his phone was off. Presumably drunk. So she, the workaholic, had promised the boss the piece would be completed, images and all.

  • She didn't have any friends, she realised. She worked too much, her head in her computer, her phone, a newspaper – sometimes all at the same time. Her partner barely made contact. She couldn't think of a friend she could possibly call – did she even have their numbers? Her family were on the other coast, so it would be no use calling them while she made a run for it. If she went missing, she wasn't likely to be found quickly enough. How could she be so stupid? She was going to be in so much trouble with herself when she got home. If she got home.

  • The man began to laugh. It was a nice laugh, deep and robust, but there was nothing funny about the situation. He leaned even closer, too close, feeding her fears. She desperately searched for a distraction, stepping backwards into the hallway, away from the man, and most importantly, the exit. She looked out the door, looking down the long, leafy drive. It curved and twisted and trees framed the road as if the sun was never meant to touch the asphalt. She could see her freedom waving from the end of the drive.

Role assigned to: katieandrelisa

A determined workaholic, who has stepped into a dangerous environment to cover for her drunk coworker, confronted by a possibly dangerous man, and constantly trying to find a way out.

  • "Oops-a-daisy!"

  • "Yep, I would change a lot. God, what would I give to have a new life..."

  • "Yes, thank you. I really needed that."

Role assigned to: spartavius

The monster (vampire) that waits in the house for a passerby, unable to step outside and hunt. A rich, smooth voice, manipulative and sometimes commanding. Has a hearty laugh, which is not entirely evil. Feel free to add those to your audition as well!

  • "I bet it's something like Elisabeth or Francesca, a name that dances around the mouth, something sweet to say, like honey for the lips."

  • "It appears to be broken. I am so sorry."

  • "Indeed you did. Would you join me in the parlour again?"
