Hiya, just wanted to let you know in case you want to redo your audition: Siren doesn't speak, she just makes sounds. The lines were instructions for the delivery of the sounds she'd make :). Sorry for the confusion!

I’m looking for an actor who can communicate Siren's personality primarily through expressive nonverbal vocalizations rather than spoken dialogue. Siren is calm, shy, curious, gentle, and experiences the world with child-like wonder, so her sounds should generally feel soft and endearing rather than constantly loud or exaggerated. The actor should be comfortable creating a wide range of distinct noises, such as: hums, chirps, squeaks, whines, clicks, gasps, and muffled vocalizations, and using them to convey different emotions and intentions. Because Siren communicates heavily through body language, the actor should also be willing to experiment with how pitch, tone, rhythm, and intensity can communicate meaning without words. They should additionally be capable of producing much louder and more intense vocalizations for Siren's Song when necessary.
Sound(s) you’d make when you see something you've never encountered before and desperately want to investigate it.
Sound(s) you'd make when you find something beautiful and want to share it with your friend.
Sound(s) you'd make when you find something startling and dangerous and you’re attempting to warn others.
