Dark Fantasy AAA Game, Codename: Dogwood
DaRoninEnigma for Aurent, age 55
Aurent is a serious man with plenty of confidence. He's very charistmatic and exudes an aura of authority. He speaks clearly and doesn't mince his words. He's quick to anger, but his anger is a quiet dripping venom, not a wild flailing fury.

(speaking to a crowd) We're gathered here today to witness... a miracle. Look at this man: standing here on his own two feet, looking at you, thinking, crying. Trying his absolute darndest to speak through the gag. To ask - nay, to beg - for your help. Or my mercy. Yet he gets neither. And now he's gone. Just like that.
(angry) I've told you not to follow my brother. I've told you and I warned you, and what did you do? You didn't listen. There are mistakes, Noan, mistakes a man should not make. This was one of them.
I absolutely love your sound! I would love to know what your vocal process is. I've been striving to get that "up close and personal" sound but can't find it.
I appreciate the feedback.
Some general practices I use are:
-Stand, don't sit. Give yourself room to "perform" the lines. Emotion is easier to elicit when all factors can be folded in.
-Don't read the lines in recording. Memorize them then deliver. When you don't have to worry about tripping over the words then delivery can focus more heavily on how it sounds vs. was it all captured?
-Always practice. When you read books, read them out loud. Emulate how you think all the characters sound. Soon it will all become second nature and comfortable.
I hope this helps.
