I like your delivery, you get the character down well-enough, I loved how you did the "explanation" line; only I can detect a slight Northern twinge to the voice? Gibson has a more Southern English accent, specifically the Estuary English accent - think sort of Tenth Doctor accent. I'd be more than happy to hear another audition, though with a few pauses between sentences, I did find it slightly quick. For the last line also, could you do it more panicked sounding? Thank you for the audition!

    Thanks so much for your critique! My accent is rather strange so I thought I'd give it a go and see if its anything like what you had In mind. I'm not the best at accents I'm afraid so if you'd like me to have a do over with my current accent I'm perfectly happy to. Perfectly understandable if not. Thanks again for getting back to me!

      Ah okay, fair enough! I think if you can't do the required accent it's probably not the best role for you, sorry. Thanks nonetheless!

THE GEOLOGIST

Dr. Samuel Gibson is a committed, curious and experienced scientist, yearning to be recognised in the annals of discovery. Outside of work, Gibson likes to keep an informal environment with the crew, is well-liked and respected by his fellow crew, and is known for his generosity toward others. However, once the signal is discovered, Gibson struggles to keep his crew together and eventually his own mind. 

Voice attributes: 30-40 age range, with an Estuary English accent, and a medium to low pitched voice. 

The sides they read from:

  • “Cryo-induced fatigue”, they call it. Like an ice-cream headache times a thousand. You’ll get over to it. Be thankful you don’t have it as bad as Tom, I think he’s still vomiting up the breakfast he had before going in.

  • Callisto’s geography is frankly quite simple. No mountains, no volcanoes or other tectonic features - only craters and multi-ring structures are the largest features on the moon. Me and Esmée took some samples to analyse the material composition of the surface, finding it quite similar element-wise to asteroids: magnesium, iron and an abundance of carbon. From the outset, we don’t believe that the surface wields any organic materials.

  • We’re the first thing this signal has reached, and if the source of it has just found us, what then? We thought we were alone, and so has it. So... what next?
