Role assigned to: Jacob Williamson

A rash survivor of a species taught a harsh lesson, Dominator is one of two primary antagonists. A member of the Zalgrud species - or more accurately, the only member still alive. A cataclysmic event spelt a dark age for his home planet of Zalgun, destroying its ecosystem. Under the guise of the sandstorms, Dominator hid inside his Dome Complex, once at the centre of the Zalgun society, amassing an army of replicants and mutants. Dominator’s namesake is a unique ability he possesses to quite literally dominate his foes...

In terms of the voice, Dominator is the last surviving member of his race, so he should sound aged, but also, strangely intimidating. The three goons serving under him need a reason to serve under him - no doubt they’ve been scared by his appearance but that’s only a part of it. Therefore, a loud commanding presence, which at the same time remains composed and competent while talking to them, is needed of you. As for interaction with other characters, they are all pretty much human - the race which Dominator buries a deep hatred for. When talking to any human character, the listener might notice that Dominator undergoes a huge shift of tone - you’d almost think he respects the three goons when listening to this version. Try conveying this hatred through occasional sputtering (mockingly), putting emphasis on demeaning words, but what you should not do is hold back your voice. Dominator is, shall we say, the most “expressive” character, just not traditionally.

Amount of lines (not finalised): ±140

  • Var, hold them off as long as you can. Tar, prepare the implant.

  • You aren't even worth the effort! Weak, infirm - the other humans gave me a reason to dominate their minds!

  • Inhabitants of Planet Earth: your time in this galaxy has come to an end. Your base is now under the control of the Dominator, and your display of resistance is effort thrown to the wind!

While I'd love to give tips on all your auditions, my backlog is insane right now. But this is definitely my favourite audition from you! Steve already took the words out of my mouth so some constructive critique from me: try to make the difference in aggression between speaking to Tar/Var and against human characters more notable (just be a little milder, collected while speaking to the former), and try to make the last line less overdone. The word emphasis on "Dominator" is nice but I feel it could be less loud, less saturday morning cartoon villain. Once again, amazing work, thank you!
