[RADIOPLAY] Red String - AUDITIONS CLOSED

Project information - Red String (recasting)

Miharu Ogawa grew up believing that two people destined to fall in love were tied by a Red String of Fate. What will she do when she finds her chances at love have been cut short by an arranged marriage with a complete stranger?

http://redstring.strawberrycomics.com

My name is Gina Biggs and I am both the creator of Red String and the producer of the radioplay. This radioplay is a long-form project, so I only ask that you please do not audition unless you are willing to make a serious commitment to this project. I am seeking auditions specifically for the TEMPORARY recasting of the main character, Miharu Ogawa. Basically, I need an understudy who can take over for a few chapters for Cristina Vee while she is currently unable to voice the character (possibly become a permanent placing if main VA is unable to return).

Audition deadline - October 30, 2007 (end of the day, EST)

Recording and Contact information
+ Save the lines as "charactername_yourname_linenumber.mp3" (ex: miharu_ginabiggs_01.mp3) (MP3 FORMAT)
+ Place all audition lines in a ZIP or RAR file
+ Include a TXT file with your name, stage name, email address, AIM (if applicable), past roles, etc
+ Send your auditions to gina@strawberrycomics.com

CHARACTER INFO

Name: Miharu Ogawa

Age: 16/17

Bio: Dyed-blond hair, trendy clothing, and an unusual knack for speaking up for herself, Miharu is an outgoing first year high school student who enjoys eating and hanging out with friends. She comes home one day to discover she's an unwilling candidate for an arranged marriage.

Voice type: I think Miharu's voice needs to be feminine, yet strong. She can be quite emotional at times, so good crying will be a necessary quality. It would be good (but not required) to listen to the current VA's portrayal in the RP to get an idea of what I am looking for here.

Role type: Main character

Audition line 1: (thoughtful) I just can't decide how to feel. I like him a lot, but I feel guilty because I was so opposed to the idea.
Audition line 2: (crying) Y-you're not the one...! (pause) You're not the one I'm supposed to marry...
Audition line 3: (annoyed) I think formalities are fine. Plaid doesn't suit you.
Audition line 4: (very angry) There's no honor in making a girl cry! You're the worst!
Audition line 5: (cute/teasing) Then maybe you should come over more often and cook for me.
Audition line 6: (embarrassed) DON"T TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THAT, YOU FLIRT!

I've included a fair amount of lines so that I can get a good idea of your portrayal of the character. In conclusion, I just want to say that I really look forward to hearing your auditions. Hearing my characters brought to life in this way is amazing and your participation in this project is most appreciated.

Oh, no, I was gonna ask about this, but I didn't want to be annoying. I guess with all that stuff going on, she must be pretty busy. I'm not sure I'm jealous or not, haha.

Well, hopefully all will go well. ^_^ I've been trying to keep the site updated with progress on the episodes/chapters, but you can always email me for a more detailed update or just questions in general. ^^

Ugh, damn my lack of mic-ness! I'd love to play this character so much x_x

If I weren't already cast in this, I would SO audition. Good luck in finding someone!

mippa · **Re: [RADIOPLAY] Red String - Female lead role -** 10-24-2007, 02:34 AM

same here!

Mirielle · **Re: [RADIOPLAY] Red String - Female lead role -** 10-24-2007, 09:19 AM

Hmm...could I still try out, even if I am cast in this? My role isn't a major one, and I can make my voice different? Ah, whatever the case, good luck to everyone!

Mirielle, if you want to try out for this part, please feel free. ^_^
