Ive_Got_Issues for Wentworth Newton
Open to any voice range.
Wentworth Newton had everything. A loving family, personal tutor, beautiful home. Anything Wentworth desired, it was his. Until the day his father was framed for a crime he didn't commit. His father was publicly executed and Wentworth and his mother were banished to the slums with no money or possessions to call their own.
Wentworth was forced to learn how to survive on his own after losing his mother shortly after banishment. These skills were put to "good" use once he became an adult. Wentworth finds corrupt city dweller and kills them. He takes their riches and divides it amongst the other slum dwellers so they can afford food and medicine. (Basically an extreme version of Robin Hood)
Wentworth is actually extremely kindhearted and passionate despite the world showing him no kindness in return. He's a big goofball and loves joking around with friends. Though, he does have a short-temper and if someone crosses Wentworth, he will hold a grudge until his dying day.
(Teasing)
Is that so? I apologize if the slums are not up to your standards, Lord* Solomon. Perhaps, we should continue our discussion somewhere more to your liking? High City, perhaps? Or how about the Tower of the Royals?
*Ren Solomon isn't actually a "Lord". Wentworth is calling him this to emphasize how haughty Ren is acting in this scenario.
(Uncertain)
Do… do you think something happens to us after we die?
(Somber)
After my father died, my mother kept telling me that he was watching over us from above. It used to comfort me, but, now? I can’t help but wonder if they look down on me and are proud of who I have become.
(He gets a little bit choked up)
Or do they look down from the stars and feel disappointment every time I…
(Annoyed)
By people, I assume you are referring to city dwellers because slum’ers know exactly who I am. They see me just fine.
*Frustrated growl*
(Regretful/Disappointed. He has suddenly realized that spending time with this person was a bad idea)
Maybe you should head back to the city? I’m sure your kind are probably missing you. There’s still another hour or so until the Shadowing so you might be able to catch the tail end of your grand party.
Great work, Ive_Got_Issues. No worries about the file type. MP3 is perfectly fine for the audition. As for feedback, you've got great audio quality and a very nice voice. Your line delivery was great. My only critique is with the third line. I know it's hard to get those prelife/reactions to sound natural. Feel free to change the growl to an exasperated sigh. Your second growl was pretty good, though! Even just tagging that onto the end of the "they see me just fine" line or starting the "maybe you should..." with a bit of a growl would help make it sound a bit more natural. Other than that, excellent job! Liked your audition a lot!
Thank you Jenna. I'll try and put up another recording fixing this. In honesty, I didn't feel super confident about that post but seeing your comment, I better understand what you're wanting and it makes me sense than what I was thinking.
Sounds good! It's a really tough line ^^;
