NEEDED: Voices for Audio Drama
savillevoices for Emily Hatt
Based (perhaps loosely) on the emerald engine from the show proper, Emily is the daughter of Sir Topham Hatt and Lady Hatt, is the niece of an Earl and as such has lived a life of privilege. While she is dutiful to her father, she is also just a little bit petulant and self righteous. She also feels a bit trapped by expectation- she has dreams of her own that she has resigned to never being realized on account of it not being suitable for her status. She should sound speak with a proper English accent (Southern England, somewhat like the Queen), should sound a tad bit stuck up and a bit like a know-it-all. This role will vary a lot in emotion and I need someone who can carry that range properly.
"You've been acting petulant ever since you returned from London. Stop being silly, Gordon. You can't honestly expect father to groom you for Controller when you couldn't even keep your own businesses afloat."
"It's okay, Mr. Castillo. You seem quite busy, I'd hate to interrupt the flow of work. Besides, what's to explain? You fix steam engines. It's not that complicated."
"How dare you! The very nerve to insinuate that I'm ignorant just because I have been isolated on this island and the estate all my life. It's hardly been my choice and it hasn't stopped me from educating myself!"
Wonderful, I love the emotion you've given these! I was wondering if you could maybe try another line in a just slightly higher pitch? You have a very lovely depth to your voice, but I'd like for Emily's immaturity to stand out a bit in her sound. Thanks so much!
Thanks! I'll record a higher pitch take as soon as I can :) How is the accent for you? X
It's perfect, exactly what I'm looking for!
Ok great! Will get that revised pitch to you asap :) xx
I've submitted a new audition with higher pitch - let me know how it works for you :)
