Searching Superman

In February of 2021 we released our first four full episodes. The third of these episodes was an adaptation of “The Adventures of Superman” featuring a crossover with Batman and Robin. This has remained one of our favorite Madison episodes, but we’ve come a long way in audio quality since this was edited in late 2020.  We are going to REMASTER the original episode and rerelease it in February of 2025 for our Fourth Anniversary. And we want a NEW actor to play the Man of Steel!
RULES FOR AUDITIONING
  • Audition submissions are due Sunday, October 27th, 2024 (casting announcement will be made Sunday, November 3rd)
  • This is non-union and unpaid (none of the cast or crew receives compensation). I totally appreciate it if this as a deal breaker for some, and thank you for your interest.
  • If cast, the actor will record remotely on their own schedule with the recordings due on Sunday, December 1st, 2024
  • Your audition recording should reflect the recording set up you have at home so we can not only evaluate performance, but the type of audio quality you can provide. Our main concern is always room echo. You can get away with lesser quality microphones if you are able to deaden your recording space!
  • Do NOT put any effects or filters on your audition. Give it to us raw. No sound gates, no de-plosives, no background cancelling filters. We have our own tools to fix minor problems and are happy to do it. What we’re looking for is the quality of your recording all on its own.
CHARACTER BREAKDOWN
Male American accent, actor-to-sound 30s. Prefer lower voice with strength but hey, win me over if you have a different idea!
There should be a slight but still notable difference from when he speaks as Clark Kent, and when he’s Superman. Clark should be more “normal guy” natural, and Superman more confident and bold. (Just don’t over do it!)
We are NOT a spoof of old time radio. Play the character real and believable in the moments. This is a kid’s show so sometimes more presentational, but not comically so.
Please audition with these two sides.
One take of each is fine, but if you have a distinctly different variation, you may include a second take.

Check out our episode! I absolutely do NOT want anyone to try to reproduce the performance of the original actor.
I am looking for YOU to be the best Superman you can be!
