Spirit of the North (Untitled Sequel)
Alicia Milner for Amma
Amma
Character Overview
-Amma is an old woman and grandmother to the protagonist Eona.
-Elderly woman from a fictional land in the far North(Comparable to countries like Iceland, Norway, Finnland, Scottland). She is relatively short and sturdy. About 80 years old. Her people live in the rugged highlands and she lives off the land.
-Amma is perceptive, motherly, compassionate, and often humorous as grandmothers often are. Amma represents the wisdom of a people who have endured hardship and uncertainty. She is practical and grounded, but never without warmth or kindness towards her grandaughter.
-We're looking for a mature feminine voice with a gentle, natural presence. Amma should feel like someone who has lived a long life, learned from its hardships, and still finds reasons to be happy and make the most of life. Her performance should be sincere rather than theatrical. She has moments of warmth, quiet humor, sadness, teasing sarcarsim, profound emotional clarity.
-Dialog is directed at the other characters. Other character’s are her granddaughter, and a fox.
Accent
People are from a fictional land in the far north, very similar to Iceland. We prefer accents to be subtle and not distracting. Voice influences can include Icelandic, Nordic, Irish, Scottish, Icelandic, or Finnish. The more obscure or mixed the better, but it should feel like it’s similar to these regions. Authenticity and performance take slight priority over any specific accent.
Scope
Approximately 4-5 hours of recording anticipated, subject to final script and casting.
