The Last of Us: Notes and Letters VO (PAID)
Lev Rodriguez Shivers for Voice Over Role
Ellie's late, loving mother.
Ellie,
I'm going to share a secret with you, I'm not a big fan of kids and I hate babies. And yet... I'm staring at you and I'm just awestruck.
You're not even a day old and holding you is the most incredible thing I've done in my life - a life that is about to get cut a little short.
Marlene will look after you. There's no one in this world I trust more than her. When the time comes she'll tell you all about me. Don't give her too much of a hard time. Try not to be as stubborn as me.
I'm not going to lie, this is a pretty messed up world. It won't be easy. The thing you always have to remember is that, life is worth living! Find your purpose and fight for it.
I see so much strength in you. I know you'll turn out to be the woman you're meant to be.
Forever... your loving mother
Anna
Make me proud, Ellie!
Great work! There are times when subject matter or entertainment media (ex. The Last of Us) lives in us so deeply that we can't help but connect to it. This is one of those times. Your connection to this shows and it was a joy to listen to. I have no notes. Bravo!
Thanks so much, that means a lot! It even sent me off down a whole new character analysis of Ellie that was a fun personal rabbit hole. Hope you're having a good one!
