The Crawling World

Project Overview

"Another yet, now scores we see them rise

So close their huddled mass, so closed their blazing eyes.

And thus, chthonic space is all unfurled

And thus, an age of agony shall change The Crawling World"

Casting for a twice-weekly dark fantasy serial audiodrama. 5 minute episodes initially. All voice types will be considered. Priority will be given to auditions free of extraneous noise etc.

Lines will initially be few, given the brevity of the episodes, but there is room for expansion, depending on how the narrative develops. The show will be uploaded to Youtube and Podcast platforms.

NO AI will be used, to the best of my ability to ascertain, anywhere in this project. I will also offer the NAVA AI intelligence rider to any performers brought on board. This is a very small, diy project, but this is an incredibly important issue in our industry nonetheless.

Any questions, do ask. Thank you for perusing this project. Have a great day.

Latest Updates

  • Auditions Are Now Closed

    A last thank you to everyone who has auditioned. I was flabberghasted by the array of talent, and the unique spins on, and interpretations of the characters people gave. I've gotten in touch with those who have been selected, but I'm hoping that we can make this thing a real saga, with a cast of thousands (laughs maniacally), and I will definitely be putting the call out again down the road. I'll change the status to 'completed' in a day or so, just so that I can ensure I have all my i's dotted and t's crossed. I hope everyone has a wonderful week.

  • The Deadline is being extended for 2 days

    Again, my thanks to everyone who has auditioned. Since there's been a few more that have come in recently, I'm going to take the weekend to go over everything again, and make sure everyone gets their due. I currently have a shortlist and may get in touch with some of you to ask for an additional take, if you have the time. Also - to reiterate, I hope to expand the roster in the future, so if you've provided your discord handle, I may send you a message down the road asking if you're got the time and might still be interested in being involved.
    Have a great weekend all,
    Thomas

  • Thank you to everyone who has taken the time to audition

    It's been a privilege to listen to the great work you've all submitted so far. In doing so, it's also given me a chance to reflect on some of my writing, and I've certainly made many a note - or a tweak here and there as a result. So, thank you.

    There are still 6 or so days left to go before the audition period ends, and while I'm firming up on some selections, no final decisions have been made as of yet. I will be in touch about those just before the project closes.

    Lastly - if you have submitted an audition and are not selected for a role, I would like to ask whether you would be interested in being considered for future episodes?

    This is not a guarantee by any means, but I have enjoyed every single audition that has been submitted; everyone has something unique to offer, and I'd love to see The Crawling World populated with so many wonderful voices.

Seer
closed
Deferred: Agreed Amount
Role assigned to: VestigialVirtue

Potential lead role depending on the direction of the story as it develops.
Older age envisioned, but not essential.

  • It has been foretold. And though the way seem dark, and prospects dim, a great turmoil shall come to pass because of us.

  • Sit with me awhile, there is something I need to tell you, away from prying eyes and curious ears.

  • Is that so? Scoff if you must, but know that throughout this shadowed land, though knowledge be not power, it doth confer.... advantage at least.

Negotiator

Deferred: Agreed Amount
Role assigned to: Andrew Winson

As with the seer - there is the possibility this will develop into a larger role. The negotiator, in addition to being the leader of the group of pilgrims in more immediate matters, is also the romantic partner of a main character, Long-Arm, the group's cook and enforcer.

  • Hold! There are but 6 of us, as you can see. We mean you no harm, and merely wish safe passage through to the roiling lake.

  • *annoyed grunt* That's the second night in a row you've burnt the stew. If I didn't love you as much as I did, I'd say I regretted casting the deciding vote to elect you as our cook.

  • And this is why, sometimes, I need to make a terrible choice. For us, and for them.

Role assigned to: TheRealGChu

As with all roles - the size of said role may expand as the story goes on. Less likely with the scouts however.

  • Almost there!

  • I see it. Pilgrims, follow our lead. We make for that small section of coruscated iron, the spines rising from the earth next to the small lake. We’ve time. We know this place. There should a cave where we can shelter.

  • We came this way last shinefall, aye comrade?
