Friend
This is the voice of Sofia's "friend" on the phone - warm, supportive, conversational. The performance requires authentic teenage vocal energy that can subtly shift into something unsettling.
Age: 12-14 years old (or can sound younger)
What we're looking for
Natural, unforced teenage vocal quality
Ability to maintain warmth while building underlying tension
Comfortable with finding organic conversational rhythm
Strong listening skills (responding authentically to Sofia)
Sofia
Sofia is a quiet, thoughtful middle-schooler who's figuring out friendships, crushes, and who she wants to be. She's creative, a bit shy, and navigating the complicated social world of eighth grade mostly from the safety of her bedroom.
Age: 12-14 years old
What we're looking for
Natural, authentic performance (not "acting" - just being real)
Emotional availability and vulnerability
Comfortable carrying scenes solo
Able to find quiet, internal moments on camera
