I'm a college freshman with about ten years of acting experience and formal training in the Chekhov method. Voice acting is both a hobby and a part of my career. I have one cat named after a road sign and one dog that may or may not be a rat.

As of 27/05/2017 her work is still in post production but will be made available after audio correction/normalising, editing, sound effects, and music are added. She played Gwenevere, and time stamps to our favourite Gwenevere moments will be provided once it is complete.
Our session began 5:30am (her time). She didn't have to, but when she heard that it was the most convenient time for me (Australian time), she insisted on that time. I have never before worked with an actor so willing to bend over backwards to make my job as easy as possible.
Our session concluded with her sending me the files before going back to sleep. This was startling for me, as I have worked with fully awake and alert actors who could not achieve the same level of quality as Caroline managed just after waking and before going back to sleep. (If the project is available at the time of reading, have a listen and keep in mind she was half awake while recording. I know, it didn't sound it to me either.)
I received 20 auditions for the role of Gwenevere, some offering their services without payment, others requiring fees of various degrees of reasonableness. Caroline's was the best audition of all of them (even ignoring the unreasonable fees some charge), as she was able to achieve a level of fire and emotion that made even really good auditions seem bland and lifeless by comparison.
Given her dedication, punctuality, emotion, audio quality, and work ethic, I hope she finds a directer one day who will pay her what she is worth. I know I sure-as-hell didn't!
