Dreamkeepers: The Movie 2 (Assassin's Flaw)
NEL-VA for NAMAH
Illegitimate daughter of the Viscount, Namah's life locked in shadow is mercifully disrupted. Carefree adventure awaits- or, at least, it would if Lilith and Mace would stop groping for terminally stupid solutions.
Namah Calah has been a Dreamkeepers community fan favourite, and since reading up to Volume 5, she has become my personal favourite after witnessing the blossoming of her character growth. She is mischievous, rebellious and carefree but has grown to become more responsible and caring for others. The bond she has with her sister, her friends and uncle grow stronger than ever in the fight against the Nightmare invasion and tyranny of the Dark Dreamkeeper forces.
Aim for a tomboyish vocal but not losing touch of her cheeky & creative femininity.
[Special note: It is essential that you have a minimum read through of Dreamkeepers Volumes 1 to 4 (which are all available for free to read for your pleasure & research) if you are selected for the role and prior to a recording session with the director. Feel free to read up in advance though! Understanding Namah will add authenticity to your performance and potentially maximising your chances of getting the role!

Listen bitesize... Life's pretty good right now. Badass hangout, decent food, adults teaching us powers... All the people I care about are safe. That includes Mace.
Your whole 'destiny child' thing- I've read so many corny plot lines, I mean, you can't really believe that you are one? --- **Mace tries to get away from you but you tackle him to the ground ~ do an AD-LIB of Namah grabbing him as he leaps into the air & eventually crashing to the ground** --- **Mace manages to escape your tight grip, you are unimpressed, AD-LIB this too** -- Resistance is futile. Well, I mean for you it is.
BAST! --- Mace, if they want you alive, they're doing it wrong. Update your playbook! --- For crying out loud~ Hold still. --- I've already tried that, words have no effect on him! **this is a rather intense scene, there is a giant Nightmare monster the size of a two-storey building that is devastating the whole town and has one mission, to kill Mace. You and your uncle, Igrath, are teaming up to save him! Really pay attention to the action and delivery of each line, ad-libing being a bonus to your performance!**
Superior audio clarity and very strong acting to reflect the Namah that I'm looking for. The playful pacing and signature inflection of femanine-tomboyush is remarkable. An excellent audition Ornella!
Oh wow, I was not expecting that! Thank you so much, Elson; really appreciate it! ^_^
Hey Ornella! To date, on the 10th November 2022 in Perth, Western Australia there are a total of 905 auditions for this project, 57 of those came from NAMAH alone. There has been over 50 auditions for this character that I've heard multiple times and yours have come to a count of 97 times. It's been a difficult and challenging prospect to find my new Namah since there are other strong contenders for the position that have showcased their incredible performances. But there could only be one at the end of the day. I also stress that the story in Volume 5 of Dreamkeepers has made me appreciate her more than ever. So having said that it was crucial that I find someone who was able to speak to me in not only their performance but also the person doing the voice. It was about 3 years back, on August 2019 you auditioned for a character named ELS for my BEASTARS Anime Trailer (English Fan-Dub) project. It was then I've discovered you and have also demonstrated how talented and lovely you were in what you do. Fast forward to today, after getting involved in the BEASTARS Live-streams, and other projects playing minor but memorable roles from QUALITY FANDUBS I can proudly say to you that - I've found my Namah. Congratulations Ornella, it's time I've passed this torch of an opportunity to you in playing Namah of the Dreamkeepers series. Well deserved and I look forward to working with you!
