Augustus in the Human World Animated Comic Trailer - VA Test
OwenRayVA for Mason Warner (Love Interest)
Mason Warner is the Team Leader of the office / Augustus's boss. On the outside he seems put-together, with the vibe of a mature, competent man. In reality he's battling stomach ulcers, insomnia, and chronic migraines that cause his vision to fail or get blurry. (example:https://www.webtoons.com/en/canvas/augustus-in-the-human-world/ep-4-today-im-officially-a-new-intern-1/viewer?title_no=1041639&episode_no=6)
VOICE: His voice is gentle-sounding(?), but still very authoritative/commands respect. He likes efficiency and speaks quickly but sighs a lot. Sounds very smart. He gets rattled when he meets nonsensical/absurd people or scenarios.
Voice Inspirations/References: Kageyama (Haikyuu), Trafalgar Law (One Piece, ENG or JP).
Voice Lines (PICK ANY 3):
- (To his doctor): "(Sigh) If I wanted someone to nag me, I’d go to a shrink.”
- MASON: (To Director Dunn): “My doctor has recommended I stop smoking and drinking due to my stomach ulcers.”
DIRECTOR DUNN: [SAY NOTHING, simply pause for the space to insert other VA line)]: "Ulcers at your young age? So what, you’re saying you have it worse than us old folks, is that it? And who the hell hired that Intern?!"
MASON: "I left the selection process to Stacy, but ultimately made the final decision. I will take full responsibility for training him." - (To Augustus): "I hired you, so your actions directly reflect onto me. You need be more tactful in the future.
- (To Augustus, apprehensive yet in awe/ amused): "Are you that happy? It's just a an ad proposal."
- “I thought that the best luck in my life was landing a high-ranking position straight out of college….but in no time, winter will come again, and I’ll be turning 30. I work 14 hours a day, and sleep for 3. I have a car, but the subway is easier to take to work. I have a decent apartment, but I barely use it besides sleeping. I have 2 loving parents, but I’m too busy to see them. I have 24hours in a day, but It’s never enough. Unless I get an amazing incentive, I barely have enough money left over to buy toilet paper. But still, a guy like me...wouldn’t you say I’ve made it?
- (To Augustus): "I had an inkling from before, but your proposal confirmed my suspicions. In the planning team, our proposals aren’t that poetic or meaningful. We come up with the scope, but the creative team adds all the bells and whistles. We give them the theme, and they design peripherals, shoot the ads, hire models, add music...All we do is research and plan the logistics. What I'm saying is...I think you'd be better suited for the creative team."
- (To Augustus, defeated): "(Sigh) Don’t speak elaborately for my sake. It's as you’ve described. There is no greater purpose to making ads. We work hard for hours, for days and weeks and months. But a single word from a client can throw aside your hard work in a matter of seconds."

I thought that the best luck in my life was landing a high-ranking managerial position straight out of college….but in no time, winter will come again, and I’ll be turning 30. It's only been a few years....but I'm sick of it.
