The Last of Us: Notes and Letters VO (PAID)
Matthew James for Voice Over Role
Ish keeps his mind on the white whale that is the goodness in humanity.
One open door. That's all it took. One of us forgot to close a door and a horde of those monsters entered our camp. We shut them in there and wrote a warning on the outside.
Susan and a couple of the kids are with me. As far as I know, we're the only survivors. I had to hold Susan so she wouldn't run back in there — go back for the bodies. It's just too dangerous. She lost her children, and I have no clue what to say to her.
Every part of my being just wants to give up. It'd be so easy to surrender to this world. I can't do that, though. I have too much faith in humanity.
I've seen that we're still capable of good. We can make it. I have to stay strong... For her.
— Ish
Great work! I love your vocal quality! I also love how you're keeping your voice in a natural place and not trying to make it too flowery. As far as the emotional journey goes, I loved the struggle on the line "I know we're capable of good." I am missing some of the emotional journey throughout the rest. If you're willing to do another take, I'd love to hear that dark struggle to hold on to hope after that recent tragedy and then the decision to keep fighting. Take your time and make these words count. Lmk if that doesn't make sense!
Awesome! Thank you so much for your feedback! It makes complete sense what you're saying. I'll be happy to give it another go! :)
