Voices: The Audiobook (Narrators Needed)
Project Overview
Hello, everyone.
Recently, I've published a book on Amazon, linked down here:
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07W4RX9T4
It's a collection of journal entries, transcripts, newspaper clippings, and other kinds of documents that all following many different people's personal stories, ranging from a university student learning how to fight from an old war veteran to a serial killer haunted by nightmares of his own ongoing murder spree. All these stories and more tie in together in a worldwide war against evil forces and their floating citadel. It makes more sense than it sounds like it should.
Anyway, the book is now available on paperback and Kindle, so I figured, hey. Why not take the next step and make an audiobook out of it? And that's where you come in. See, all these different stories need different narrators, so...yeah, there's that.
Take a look-see at the roles below, and when auditioning, please consider the following:
1) Respect: Please show respect towards the directors and the other cast members. We will not tolerate rude behavior.
2) Mic Quality: Please do not have any white noise, background sounds, etc…
3) Acting: Please show emotion in your auditions. Acting is very important to bring a character to life.
4) Have Fun! This project was designed to help expand actor’s horizons and also for them to have fun.
And before you ask, it's listed as unpaid for now, but I'm hoping to do profit share with you people.

At this time, more than ever before, I was convinced that I was chosen by the gods to light our darkest hour.
