I know I'm not the best, but I'm new to voice acting like this.

You did great! I couldn't have even known you were a beginner. I may use the word "love" loosely, but I LOVED your audition! There was a different take to the character compared to the first auditioner and you really brought something new to the table. Your sound was clear, and your voice audible, there was barely any noise in the background, and your emotions really got across. I especially liked the part where you paused after "make" and continued to enunciate the "your lives better" part because it brought in more of Zephaniah's raw emotions in a way. During the "to-to heal people" it was quite forceful to get the point across, but after when you pronounced "lives" and "better" with a pause it seemed like in that pause Zeph was really thinking about how to change his mother's mind and enunciated the words to get her to understand. It was...amazing (I use that word loosely, too, but everyone awes me with their talent). The only thing that I say would've somewhat given you away on the beginner part would be the pop of your words once you get riled up. The emotion was great, but the "pop" kinda took away from what you were saying. I don't have any good advice, but you could get a bit farther from your mic, or get a pop filter/make one. I'm not as experienced as some others such as Methyst, but she gives good advice in her comments. You should check out her profile to look for advice if you want any. Oh, and before I forget..Thank you for auditioning! -Grelik
