The Rookie (Halo Fan Film)
Carionto for Gage Yevgenny (Male)
- Gage Yevgenny (Dirt): Grizzled ODST and protagonist of Dirt, the fifth short story part of the Halo Evolutions anthology book. Old, gruff and had enough, his story leads him to self sacrifice in the face of an invading alien armada and his backstabbing teammates. The Rookie, fresh out of bootcamp, answers his call for distress, and the old trooper regales the young cadet in his final moments with his story and provides much needed advice. His lines in my short film will be taken straight from the book. Based on the limited information we have about him, he can ultimately be anyone. However, I would say he would suit an older and rougher sounding vocal tone, and I feel his name leans me more towards an eastern european accent for the character. With his lines being the very first there will be a lot riding on him for hooking the viewers of this film into the story, however I am confident the strength of his lines will carry that easily and with potentially your voice it could be fantastic.

Years ago, I told my father it was ‘just dirt’. But it’s not dirt. It’s where we live. It’s our dirt.
Promise me something, Rook? Promise you’ll fight the Covenant all the way, even if they land on Earth. You’ll fight them even if you have to throw rocks at them…
They’re almost here… What I want you to do is head up the mountain now. All out. Drop your pack, everything but your comms and your weapon… Run like you ran in boot camp, Rook, run like your worst drill instructor is right behind you…
This is really phenomenal, sorry for the late comment, just wanted to take some good time to respond to this. The accent is amazing, the energy is right where and when it needs to be, the stuttering and coughing, really really awesome. This is going to be a very very tough call with some of the others I've heard, but I just want to say I really love this audition and thanks for your time and interest!
