European Humans: The Movie (Multilingual & English Included!)
JC for Spanish Señorita 'María José de los Arroyos'
!DISCLAIMER! It is highly recommended that you're native Spanish and can speak Spanish!
At the contrary of most of these fellows, shes not actually from the most important or known part of her country! She’s from the south part of Spain, Andalucían territory. She tends to be very lazy and likes to take a lot of naps, she doesn't like to be called jobless, but those accusations aren’t wrong either. She can resist strong heats, and loves to dance flamenco. She can be very agressive verbally at times, cussing and insulting a lot, but this is just her way of showing affection. And also, she hates people from Madrid with a burning passion.
Stereotypical: Enjoys watching bull fights, favourite color is red, she has a passion for football and loves eating native food.
Extras: She's a lesbian with Fátima.
Before auditioning: Please Introduce yourself. Your nationality, name, everything you want to mention. Here's a good short example: https://youtu.be/hQzPUSYENJ8?si=ExQTotSYji-IRy0N

🇪🇸&🇬🇧 (Empathetic & Distant) "Listen, I'm just a 25-year-old woman from Spain; we literally never talked before today, and I LITERALLY sent you bullfighting—which, by the way, you were incredible at—and yet you're still sharing all of this with me, so why not tell someone you actually trust?"
🇪🇸&🇬🇧 (Bossy) Make sure the gazpacho doesn't get cold and put it there, OK? We're going to have a lot of people eating here. And don't even think about having a little taste of the soup!"
🇪🇸&🇬🇧 (Annoyed) "Seriously, what a brat... Is that what you call a gentleman?"
Thanks for auditioning! A few issues here:
Did you watch the example video? You were supposed to say each line in its own language, not switch in the middle of speaking them! It's also much easier this way—you had issues switching and translating. Say the whole line in one language before moving to the next.
An introduction is necessary. The example in the video shows it! :D
I recommend writing the text in Spanish before saying it out loud. It personally helps me when translating English lines for voice acting!
The microphone is good, but it might be a bit too loud—it peaks a lot.
It could be a little more difficult if you're not native to Spain. The Spanish director really wants the character to have the accent, and he already wasn't happy that I couldn't find someone with an Andalusian accent. (Hope you understand) 😭
The second line actually has two lines—that's my mistake. If you get a notification about the role being changed, that's me fixing the lines.
Maria has a more... serious and LAZY voice. Imagine her laying on the couch all day. (It's a bit exaggerated but it works!)
Maybe you can try doing a retake! I'm sure a lot of people would like your voice Oh, and Merry Christmas! ^^
