Macbeth: Murderer
Project Overview
After reading Shakespeare's Macbeth I thought to myself, "huh, this is a pretty twisted story. I wonder how much more twisted it would be if it was an animated thriller movie. And so, I took it upon myself to do the honor of making it myself. However, it will not be a full-length movie, but rather a teaser trailer for it. If you have not read Macbeth, I encourage you to do so before auditioning, so you know what exactly you are signing up for. This is somewhat of a PG-13 project because there is going to be some violence.

Macbeth is the lead in the play. He ordered the king and his friend Banquo to death by his own murderers in order that he might take the throne for himself. Over the course of the story, he becomes insane and ends up being killed by his former friend.
*Thinking*
"The Thane of Cawdor (Caw-door)? 'Tis just as the witches predicted. Now, though, must I act upon my desire to fulfill the second prophecy?"
*Panicking*
The noble Duncan is dead by mine own sword. This blood on my hands shall never wash clean! What have I done!"

I know, I don't have a very strict criterion for you to follow, but for inspiration, it would be helpful if you could recreate the typical thriller music (Suspenseful, jumpscare, and dramatic string section). Thank you so much for your cooperation!

Voice Actor
MacDuff
open
Unpaid
Macduff is devastated by his family's murder and ultimately beheads Macbeth at the end of the play. He is very loyal to Scotland.
"How are my wife and children? Has the tyrant Macbeth not thrown away their peace yet?"
(Ross tells Macduff that his family has been murdered. Macduff responds in disbelief:)
"...my children? .....and my wife too?" (Malcolm tries to reassure Macduff. Macduff again responds furiously:)
"He has no children! How could he know the pains of losing things most precious to him?! Oh, Macduff! They were all slain through your mistake!"
(Forcefully and through gritted teeth:)
"Turn, you hellhound! I have no words, and my voice is in my sword. You are a bloodier villain than any words can describe."
Voice Actor
Ross
open
Unpaid
In the play overview, it states that Ross is a Scottish noble, however, I don't really see anywhere in the play itself that Ross holds a noble position. I kind of view him more as like a "servant-but-not-exactly-servant" to Macduff. He visits Macduff's wife after Macduff left Scotland, and took it upon himself to bring the dreadful news of the murders to Britain and Macduff.
"Dearest cousin, your husband is noble, wise, and judicious and best knows the violent time that Scotland is under."
"I would be a fool to stay any longer. It would be my disgrace and your discomfort. I will take my leave at once."
(It would be nice if this could be repeated in multiple tones, so I can get a feeling for the different moods that can be produced.)
"Sir, I beg you not despise me for the news that I bring.....your castle was captured.....and...your family...was slaughtered."
