  • Male

  • Fairly scared, but not too much

  • Curious

  • American/British accent (exceptions can be made if the voice is astoundingly good in any of the other topics)

Jerome:

  • Twenties to thirties

  • Male

  • Test lines= 'ey you like the pizza? Come to Jeromes! Best quality in town(Happy and go-luckyish voice)

Re: Rift - CLOSED (Casting Call)

What's the context of Zach's line?

Re: Rift - CLOSED (Casting Call)

I would like to try for Zack.  I will record this weekend.  I also have to process some audio for someone else this weekend.  As to the context, I think Zack encounters some mushrooms that attack him.

Re: Rift - CLOSED (Casting Call)

You're pretty much right, HoldingOurOwn. He starts of curious, then gets scared as he realizes what's going on. The line was chosen (and altered slightly from the script) because I want to see if the actor can portray the kind of odd personality he has.

EDIT: edited topic for clarity.

Re: Rift - CLOSED (Casting Call)

Sent.
If that recording isn't high enough quality, I can probably get a better one.
That was recorded somewhat hastily.

Re: Rift - CLOSED (Casting Call)

Well, I sent something, and I hope it works.

Oh wow, very good! You have a pretty high chance of not only getting one part, but maybe two (I'll wait for some more auditions, as I'm internetless Sunday)!
