New World Adventures EMERGENCY RECAST!
Jake Strong for Kevar
This is a submission, not an audition. If I like your lines, you will be in the book, and you'll get a copy of the book delivered to an address of your choosing. No further recording required.
Full context:
“I could show ya’ how ta wield it,” said the man holding a dagger to Gwenevere’s throat.
“Ya’ surrounded!” said Kevar, another fireball forming above his hand. “Give the girl or ya’ all die!”
Extra comments:
Kevar is cocky. He likes his job, and the thought of things not going exactly his way doesn't even occur to him. I know his lines don't sound that funny, but he still thinks he is. To really get in the zone for this role, think of the most fun and joyful day you've ever had at the expense of someone you've truly hated. That's the frame of mind you need to be in to play as Kevar.
Common error:
Tenfold is said "TENfold" not "tenFOLD". The "ten" is the important part, because it's different than being paid "ninefold" or "elevenfold". The folding bit isn't the important bit of tenfold.
“I could show ya’ how ta wield it,”
“She ain’t worth it matey. Run a long and tell ’em that Kevar is takin’ care of ‘er now. I know how much you was paid, but he’ll prolly pay us tenfold.”“Drop it dwarf! Or tell ya’ boss ya’ got ‘er killed!”"Huh!" (winded from being elbowed in the gut)
“Ya’ surrounded!” “Give the girl or ya’ all die!”
A more suave take on Kevar. Apologies if the recording isn't great, still working out the bugs with my setup.
It's a stereo file only playing in the left ear, for some reason. That's easy fixed though. The recording itself, not bad. The biggest issue, which I probably should've made a lot more clear in the description, is this is an action scene. If your heart isn't pounding while you're recording, you're doing it wrong. Kevar is scared shitless, but he's very good at making his fear look like excitement instead by adding a big smile and angry eyebrows to it. He knows, if he shows fear, he's dead, so he has to act confident, but fast. If he's slow, he's also dead.
Ah, got it. Yeah I misread the scene.
