Tides (Science fiction audio drama)
Project Overview
Hello! We are creating a new science fiction audio drama and we need a main voice actor.
Plot: Biologist Dr.
Frederick Eurus is a member of the first manned expedition to Fons, an
Earth-like moon wracked by extreme tidal waves due to its orbit around a
nearby gas giant. When surveying ocean life his submarine is destroyed,
leaving him alone to walk to higher ground before the wave comes back.
Along the way, he makes notes about what he finds in the intertidal
zone, and gradually realized that some of the life there is more than
what it seems.

Male (gender could be changed if female/nb actor fits the tone best).
Has a doctorate and has been working in his field for a while, so someones more mature-sounding would be best. Late 30 - early 40s. Basically, not someone who sounds overly young.
A xenobiologist, regularly uses very technical terms with ease. Very into his work, excitable, a bit of an "absent minded professor type" in that he can get focused on his work when there are more important things to think about (trying to survive on an alien planet, for example). Somewhat closed off when it comes to personal relationships.
I came to this world, as all xenobiologists do, in search of the vague existential concept of extraterrestrial life. Instead I am deposited, birthed from the sea like our ancestors you might say, wet and freshly formed, on the stark shores of reality. Instead of benevolent mermaid-like aliens reaching down to help me up I quite literally hit my head on a stromatolite. A stark reminder that life is less of a romantic ideal and more of something very similar, generally speaking, to a rock.
So, did I take a closer look at the dead fish? You bet your ass I did.
I’ve described the ocean fish pretty extensively in my previous notes from the sub, but I’ll say these were middling to small representatives of a species I saw a lot of in the epipelagic zone. Caudal fins very familiar, but the main body is radially symmetric, with five evenly spaced pectoral fins that beat in unison.
