Joey Drew Studios
Behind The Mic with Jalen Frisby for Wally Franks
Wally Franks works as the janitor at Joey Drew Studios. Wally is a young man who spends his days cleaning the studio and watching the creation of the Bendy cartoons. Though he is, at first, not seen as important, Wally ends up unknowingly helping Joey into creating the Ink Machine. Wally can be a bit lazy at times, but he has a good hard, and is more intelligent than others might think. He is often partnered up with Thomas Connor, and is friendly towards others.
Must include singing audition.
"At this point, I don't get what Joey's plan is for this company. The animations sure aren't being finished on time anymore, and I certainly don't see why we need this...machine. It's noisy, it's messy, and who needs that much ink anyway? Also, get this: Joey had each one of us "donate" something from our work stations. We put them on these little pedestals in the break room. "To help appease the gods", Joey says. "Keep things going". I think he's lost his mind, but, hey, he writes the checks. But I tell you what, if one more of these pipes burst, I'm outta here."
"I don't get it. Everyone's walking around here like grandma just died. Nothing but angry faces everywhere. These people gotta lighten up. I mean, hello! You make cartoons! Your job is to make people laugh. I'm tellin' ya. If these people don't start crackin' a smile every now and then, I'm outta here."
"These guys down at the warehouse get to play games all day while I'm stuck cleaning up after 'em. They keep locking themselves out of their own back room. So I says to 'em, "look guys", I says, "you're smart, right? Here's an idea! Why not rig these games to knock open the door if ya win? It'll be fun for you guys, and it saves me the trip down here every day." They went for it like a dog to pot roast. I tell ya! If these guys don't start realizing who the real genius is, I'm outta here."
