FINAL FANTASY IX (Project Terra) - Voice Mod / Music Development Project - Casting Recurring Roles
Sage Pazera for Princess Garnet (Lead Female Role)
IMPORTANT INFORMATION -- PLEASE READ
This is a Lead Role. Our project typically progresses in sections every one to three weeks (depending on the size). You will need a decent microphone and strong acoustics. We cannot utilize any Voice Actor recording in an environment that is picking up noticeable room echo. You will also be expected to commit to the role until completion. If you bow out prior to completion, everything that has been recorded will need to be scrapped and re-recorded by another Voice Actor.
CHARACTERISTICS
This is a very challenging role. Dagger is highly emotional and shows this both internally and externally. She commands most of the story trying to learn of Alexandria's suspicious activities that are happening behind her back. Nobody in Alexandria will believe her, so she attempts to flee to Lindblum to seek her Uncle's assistance. As she becomes increasingly more aware of the Queen's involvement (her mother), she starts realizing that not only is the welfare of her kingdom in jeopardy, but also of her mother. At the center of all this is a foreign memory of a massive ocean storm that is somehow connected to her past.
DIRECTION
The Voice Actor needs an authentic British accent. You don't need to be fluent with a North American accent -- in-fact, it will help with character development if you tend to struggle with it. That being said, being proficient in both a British dialect and a North America dialect will help win you this role.
Your first monologue needs to be very grounded, but approached from a place of love. It is a very emotional moment between Dagger and Eiko. This line is spoken when Dagger finally reflects on what she remembers about the night of the storm.
The second monologue for Dagger / Princess Garnet is during the You're Not Alone segment. Zidane is having an identity crisis, pushing through a barrage of enemies with an severe injury, abandoning most of his friends to fend for themselves. At the end, Dagger steps in and helps him snap out of it with this monologue. It's still approached from an emotional state, but much more of a "Snap out of it" perspective.
Please record both monologues in a British accent and a North American accent.

"I have no memory of my early childhood. I never really thought about it. Besides, nobody ever told me. I was raised in Alexandria...but only from the age of six or so. Until then... Until I turned six... I must have been here, in Madain Sari. I still can't remember everything. Some things are like they're shrouded in fog. But I do remember one thing... About ten years ago, an unbelievably huge hurricane hit this village. That's as far as I remember. That day, I...I was with my true mother on a little boat, far from the village. There's a cove behind Eiko's house, right? The boat I was on was just like the one there. It all came back to me when I heard that song on the boat."
"You've always protected us. But you still don't understand that we looked out for you, too! We watched your back while you watched ours. And we believed in you the same way you believed in us! Just like you protected us... We want to protect you."
