Thank you for the submissions thus far to this project. Deadline for submissions is Friday, April 4th. As a reminder, if you fit the specs or know someone who does, please follow directions below to submit. 

Seeking 14-15 yr old, Ohio/Akron boy (voice should already have changed) to do some Voice Over work for the animated documentary 
“Dear Ike". This will be submitted to festivals.

Synopsis: A 
Los Angeles filmmaker recounts his all-consuming childhood quest to contact his teen idol, Ike Eisenmann (of Walt Disney's Escape to Witch Mountain fame). The goal of his mission - to ask Ike to star in an animated science-fiction epic that he was writing. Although he never succeeded in that mission, the universe conspired to finally bring the two together decades later, in a way that proves that dreams can come true, but often in surprising ways.
 

- Although it's not ever brought up in anything the talent would read, he will essentially be playing the role of a gay boy (in case anyone might have an issue with that)

The VO sides are from the opening of the film:

Audition Date: By Friday, April 4th, 2019

Rate: Non-Union, $150

Audition VO Script of Young DION (reading from letter): 

April 22, 1980,
Ike, Before I say what I have to say I just want to tell you that this is not an ordinary fan letter or anything like that (as you will soon see). Another thing is that sometimes (most of the time I should say) this letter might be a bit confusing. Third thing, is that some of the things I say might sound a little strange but they aren’t meant to be, there's just no other way to say it. Last thing is that I just want to make sure you know this isn’t a joke, I’m serious.

Please submit VO audition labeled FIRSTNAME_LASTNAME with the subject DEAR IKE via dropbox or UNLISTED Youtube link at indyheidione@gmail.com. 

This is a VOICE OVER. Talent can record on a phone, or be on camera if it's easier, but not necessary. Please record in a quiet place as crisp, clear sound is essential.

Thank you!
