Thanks a lot for the submission! Absolutely love the the vocal performance, it truly brings the flat and emotionless demeanour across without losing the human nuance to it; aka. sounding like a robot. It really strikes the perfect balance and hits the tone or, well, the lack of tone in a sense haha. I don't really have any feedback regarding improvement here, splendid!I infer from your message that you're not primarily interested in unpaid roles in the first place, which is absolutely understandable. As I had written in reply to a project comment, each of the main cast, which also includes Kreutz, will have a main-stage episode, that will see them as a leading role, which in this project also means a paid role. If you'd rather pass on this role, I recommend to give it a shot again at a later episode when it's paid, though since I like to retain members of the cast if the collaboration works well and they're interested (which is also why only 4 of the 18 main cast roles are being up for audition), I cannot make any promises regarding availability!

    That's really great to hear! And I'm still interested regardless of the pay--that was more the point of what I said.

    I'm very glad to hear my performance brought it to life as such! It would be fantastic to bring that energy to the project. I LOVED recording for him, it just felt right!

      Oh I'm very sorry for the misunderstanding, thank you so much for clarifying that again! Extremely thrilled to hear it and I definitely feel like this performance is an absolute unit of a contender, the way it aligns with my vision for him!!

Role went to: Johnny Howl

Voice Direction:

  • Age and Gender: ~early 20s, male adult voice, low to mid, cold

  • Description: Kris' voice is the least expressive of all, his tone is commonly flat, even monotonous at times, however not deliberatley so, rather naturally, think someone who simply doesn't understand emotion or how it is conveyed through speech. He generally doesn't speak much, unless prompted, mostly by questions. In serious scenes, he shortens his sentences as much as possible, sometimes responding with little more than a word and most importantly: emotional scenes practically don't exist for Kris.



Psychological Profile for VA:

When acting as Kris, you dive into the mind of a stoic, dissociative and highly methodical assassin, who lives only to refine his craft. As Kris, every step is routine, every day there to refine, practice, with silence and precision. Your cycle of practice, mission preparation and mission excecution is only interrupted by interactions, the recurring discussion about methodology in the division and structural changes in the organization. While you don't like these interruptions, you tolerate them. To act as Kris most importantly means, to understand the differences in emotional detachment and where he stands; Where Oka tries to connect, but doesn't really have a sense of where the line between functional conversation and personal interaction lies, for Kris there is no line, there is nothing beyond functional conversation. If that makes sense: Kris did never learn emotions to begin with.

Voice description:
  • male adult
The sides they read from:

  • (cold, flat) “If a Division Black member is sloppy enough to get caught, they deserve their end.”

  • (completely monotonous) "Fear makes noise. Noise invites error."

  • (serious): "Follow me and stay low."
