Postmortem (Animated Short)
Richard Gibson for Henry Simpleton 🦟
An arrogant and narcissistic detective, he will do anything to maintain his image to the public eye. His sly and witty nature makes the residents in the city of Oaklendale look past any questionable traits that Henry may possess. In public, he talks and presents himself as a suave and charismatic figure as oppose to with his co-workers where he slightly lets down his fabricated personality. The break in Henry's fake personality starts to slowly come as Anton's rise to being the star of the police force becomes almost overwhelming for Henry putting him into a blind fury at the climax of the film.
Voice Claim: Jason Alexander (Duckman). Here's a video of Henry's voice claim!
Voice Notes:
-His speech habits can range from a few things. At the beginning of the eulogy in the film, he talks with an almost slow and somber tone until it slowly ramps up to a faster speed. Especially when he talks about how he got know Anton, he almost talks as fast as a car salesman
-Can be a big schmoozer in order to get the things he wants
-I imagine his character to be around his late 30s, so his voice has aged well beyond maturity
-He talks with a lot of exaggerated expression in his voice, a man that needs to talk with his hands to convey what he's describing
PLEASE NOTE: This film is very dialogue heavy and Henry's lines outweighs Anton's lines by...a lot. He talks for about 90% of the film

Good Morning. I'm Detective Henry Simpleton, a close friend of Anton Miller. I'll never forget the time that I've spent with Anton...that little....ray of sunshine.
Of course, I wanted to personally congratulate our new Chief of Police the day before he was sworn in.
I AM HENRY. FUCKING. SIMPLETON!
