You Are Not Here: Horror Fiction Podcast
Eva for Claudia De Martino
Claudia De Martino is one of the major antagonists in the overarching storyline. She is currently being introduced in episode four of the first season. In order to keep some of her character a secret, we will not be publicly disclosing most information about the character on CCC. In order to audition, please remember that you must be okay with horror and LGBTQ+ themes, and are alright playing an antagonistic character.
Character Traits:
Claudia is a Cis-Woman, but that does not mean the actor or actress needs to be. We are looking for someone who identifies as female, or non-binary.
Claudia does not have a canonical age at the moment, but we are looking for someone who has a mature sounding voice able to portray someone in their 30s-50s.
Claudia manages a state park, so she has a mature and orderly voice, but is also sly and cunning. She is easily able to manipulate and gaslight her workers into doing what she wants them to do. We are open to any kind of natural accent your voice may have. Please do not put on an accent for your audition, but if you actually have an accent other than American, we encourage you to audition.
Claudia does not have any official art, or official description in the podcast yet.

Oh, I thought you would have already assumed. Along with their promotion, I’ve decided to give you one as well. You’re so good with them, Finley, I know that you will be able to keep them in line.
[FINLEY]
[NO NEED TO READ THIS ONE] But I didn’t … I didn’t even apply for the position.
[CLAUDIA]
How strange. I could have sworn that I saw your name on the list of applicants. Anyways, we can speak about this later. I want to make sure that everyone here knows exactly what they are doing. Any questions?
[CLAUDIA]
Of course, Ms. Sharpe. I understand that you all have been taking on duties that are past what has been required of you in your job description, and handling them extremely well. I understand also that several of you were involved in the recent .. bear encounter, and that was a highly stressful situation. You all handled it extremely well, and kept it mostly out of the public eye. This is a quality that is really going to help in the upcoming weeks. You must understand that this is an extremely important job, and attempting to find people not only suitable, but trustworthy enough was of utmost importance.
[CLAUDIA]
Well, I do have to say, I was extraordinarily impressed with the quality of all of your applications. When Finley had told me about their little … team that they had going here, I was a bit skeptical. I know many of you have worked here for a while, and I applaud you for all your efforts to keep Black Hill a clean and welcoming environment. I’ve heard nothing but great things about all of you from your supervisor, and with that, I feel extremely comfortable promoting all of you to the firewatch program.
