I Wore Black at Our Wedding
Ryan Pratt for Santiago Cruz
He is the lead male of the series as well as the boyfriend of the main character. He is caring and nice, and on the handsome side, which causes him to be very popular with the ladies. He migrated to the US from Puerto Rico, so he should have a spanish accent, though this isn’t required. If you choose to audition for him, please know how to sing. His voice should sound like a teenager since he’s still a senior in highschool. Beside's the protaganist, he has the second highest amount of lines. Please know how to improvise!
Range: Doesn't matter, but he should sound more on the gentle side. If anything he sounds most like Makoto Tachibana from Free!
(CONTEXT- He should be concerned and questioning the health of his girlfriend. He sounds very concerned)
Colette, are you sure you’re OK? I mean, you’ve been like this for months- you’ve been losing so much weight, and you have super bad cramps... What did the doctor's say? Do you think it could be serious?
(CONTEXT- He should lose his cool and sound incredibly angry. Not the irritated angry, but the type of angry as to when you're at a loss. (Does that make sense?))
That’s all crap Aisha! You know she’s lying! Why have we been saying this for the past 3 months- 3 months?!? There’s something wrong with her! You and I both know that. ((Pause)) She’s sick. It’s not indigestion- or constant fever! It’s never been! She’s been having abdominal pains, losing weight, vomiting! Don’t tell me she just ate something bad.
Since Santiago is going to be singing in the series, please include a clip of you singing! Please make it a minimum of 30 seconds to the maximum of a minute :)
To be completely honest, I don't know why you don't have more upvotes. Your accent was very well-defined, and your singing was wonderful. My only piece of advice, in order to replicate Spanish-esque singing, is to focus on crisp enunciation. Everything else was damn near perfect. Cheering you on to get the part!
Ah yeah I used a clip of a cover I did a while back that I thought fit. Thank you so much for the feedback! I'm confident I can replicate it through singing.
Ok!! I love love love your audition!! You nailed down the accent, the emotion, and you have really good mic quality! Overall, this was a solid audition. Thank you for working hard, and congrats on becoming the main VA!
Congrats Ryan!! <3
Thank you so much Bre!!
