Smiles of Insanity (A Mario Fan Film)
suavestmetal for Dimentio
<!-- @page { margin: 2cm } P { margin-bottom: 0.21cm } -->
Dimentio is an incredibly powerful ex-court jester who went insane more than a thousand years ago when subjected to intense heartbreak. He has a flawed but strong sense of justice (although he can be extremely sadistic) driven by his desire to "fix" the imperfection in the worlds by erasing everything in existence and replacing it all with a new, perfect, loveless world with him as its king. He is very much a performer and loves to add flair wherever he can, treating his life like a show filled with drama, action and magic tricks.
Dimentio is:
• the largest role in the film with the most amount of lines, many of which are very long
• not required to swear
• required to show romantic love (despite his disdain for it)
His voice should be young and healthy-sounding, preferably with an English accent; he should sound mysterious, whimsical, arrogant and almost always amused; he is extremely patronising and even a little flamboyant, but make sure you can still be serious at times; if possible, try to make him quite seductive, even. Feel free to include lines from his canonical appearance. I couldn't really find anything quite like what I'm looking for so you can use my impression as a reference if you need one. Don't forget to add noises such as screams, grunts, growls, mad laughter and smooth laughter.
ELEMENTAL magic? How utterly crude, like the incoherent scribbles of a dim-witted infant with a soggy white crayon! I gave that nonsense up centuries ago!
[quietly] Love is...useless. Those who feel love...are...imperfect.
That's right, Mimikins. Revenge on those pathetic heroes who crushed our hopes and dreams beneath their stomp-happy feet! [turning back] Oh, and you will face some kind of punishment as well, of course, as well as Count Bleck and the rest of his merry minions.
Harpesian do u want me to upload a more crazier one?
Wow, you're really great at the crazy stuff! O_o But, uh, actually, for these particular lines it would be better if you toned it down a bit. He does have lines like this later where he's gone absolutely insane but I do think he needs to have some semblance of sanity for now. He needs to sound a little more whimsical, suave and in control of himself, if I'm explaining it well enough. Any questions? ^^
So to elaborate, it should sound a bit more like the first time you say the "ago" at the end of the first line. I really like that tone. If you don't have any questions you can just submit another audition, if you like.
ok will do!
I'll be able to record again tomorrow afternoon.
Okay! Looking forward to hearing it!
