VALKYRIA CHRONICLES 4: Squad Stories (NEW EPISODE: "A Chivalrous Heart") - 1F
IIIRONiNIII for Dan Bentley
Male. Early 30s. Regarded as the best tank operator in the entire Federation Army due to his incredible grades at the academy, Dan walked away from the glory of tank operation and settled into a more modest role as the squad's APC driver. Not a man for the spotlight, Dan would rather lend a helping hand to his allies in a support role; he feels uncomfortable with the idea of killing. Taciturn, reserved and stoic, all heads to turn to Dan when he breaks the silence. Modest to a fault. Does not like getting his picture taken.
Voice type: Low/medium-low. Does not give into emotional outbursts; he remains level-headed in all situations. A big-brother presence to his fellow squadmates. Has a slight Southern accent in the source material; feel free to match it if you can pull it off but if you can't do the accent convincingly, focus on your performance instead.
“... I'm not into killin'. Whatever skills I got, I'd rather use 'em to help my teammates. Wherever you wanna go, there's always more than one path you can take. That's what I think, anyway.”
“No need to thank me, kid... just get ready. They're comin'.”
“(modest) I didn't do a thing, kid. You decided to change and you made it happen. That's it.”
please let me know if there's anything I need to improve!
Hi there, thanks for submission! Where do you record your voice acting auditions? Just wondering because I definitely detect some sound reflection that garbles your auditions slightly. What mic do you use?
I use a blue yeti, I'm probably just to close to one of the walls in my room. I've been using adobe auditions to try and get rid of any background noise... I will definitely take the sound reflection tip into consideration from here on and try to avoid being too close to walls and corners
Yetis are notoriously sensitive so the more care you take in reducing your background noise, the better your recordings will be. It's unfortunate they are so finicky as a USB mic - when most people use them near the computer (so it will almost ALWAYS pick up the fan motor - for your it's just the slight echo and not the computer; for most people I can hear the fan right away). Stay away from corners unless they have some form of padding to dampen sound slightly.
