Sonic: Talk on the Moon
Zerix for Sonic
This is the storyboard we'll be animating: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BizK_TCK4fI
Think of this storyboard as a "what-if" in the Sonic 3 movie.
Try to imitate Ben Schwartz from the Sonic movie franchize. In this short Sonic is a bit more somber and reflective. He is at a low point and Amy is there to comfort and encourage him. In most Sonic media, he doesn't get the opportunity to really be sad and sincere, so when you record your audition, try to sound like yourself. You don't need try to "talk like Sonic", but instead, try to talk like a normal person who happens to sound like Sonic, if that makes sense... it probably doesn't
Here's a reference video you can use for Sonic: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NFw2A-UnBqo
You are free to experiment and submit multiple submissions for the same part.
Your mics need to be a good quality and all background noise needs to be removed from your audition. Auditions with poor sound quality or awful background noise will be immediately rejected. The ()'s in the lines are notes. They aren't actually part of the lines.

Is this suppose to be helpful?
Wow. I didn't expect to hear a whole Ted Talk
Frankly, I haven't really got one yet (a plan). But all I know is that they need us. You in (talking to Amy)
Hey Zerix. Thank you for auditioning. Unfortunately, the role has gone to another VA.
Here were a few issues I heard in your audition. The audio quality of your take is pretty poor. There is a lot of popping in your take when you pronounce P's and B's. A pop filter will help to fix that problem as well as not putting so much emphasis on your P's and B's. Secondly, you may want to invest in a better microphone, like a blue yeti or something else when you can. There are a number of inexpensive microphones that can give you good audio without breaking the bank.
Also, keep practicing on your acting. I saw from your page that you have 5 auditions. I can see you're still a novice at voice acting, but keep auditioning and upgrading your gear, and you will get better. Also, reach out to VA's who are successful and ask them for advice. Many artists out there are friendly and more than happy to help someone out.
Thank you so much for wanting to contribute to my project. God bless, and I hope you enjoy your Christmas.
