The Rookie (Halo Fan Film)
MattReilly for Pelican Pilot
- Pelican Pilot and Co-Pilot (Dirt): The two final characters the Rookie encounters in Dirt, albeit brief and technically unnamed roles, however important in picking the Rookie up at the end of the mission and informing him of the need to return to Earth for the events of Halo 3 ODST. I’m leaning towards a friendly jokier voice for these to contrast Gage, however they can be any accent, any gender, even any tonality. They will have heightened reactionary lines, since they witness the Shiva core detonate right before spotting Rook and landing for pickup. and while the book gives the Pilot two lines and the Co-Pilot only one, all three are after Rook hops on board. I believe it will easy to and likely very helpful in creating an image in the viewers minds to provide them with custom over-radio lines briefly reacting to the events. My thought is to potentially choose one male and one female VA for these roles.

Mother of--The hell was that?! Looks like a damn nuke went off!!
Look! Survivor! ... Hotzone clear... this is Pelican: Mike, four fourty-four, requesting perch for Oscar Delta Sierra Tango evac over. Copy over, dropping to one-zero. Landing gear engaged, cracking open blood tray... Pelican touching down, engines green.
What the hell happened over there?? ... The civilians have been evacuated, we're taking them back to Earth with us... The Covenant just attacked Reach, we're falling back, to Mother Earth...
I've gotta say I do appreciate the different approach to this character, unique accents like this really let me get a feel for what works and what doesnt, that being said I do feel I may be looking for a more subtle accent if any, and while this definitely does contrast well with gage it may contrast too well haha. Don't get me wrong its some really top notch voice acting! Just might not be the best fit for this character...
