Character Description:
-
Character Name: To Be Determined -
Gender: Open to all genders -
Age: 30-50 years -
Ethnicity: Open to all ethnicities -
Accents: Open to all accents -
Personality: Charismatic, charming, and friendly on the surface. This character should be able to put interviewees at ease while concealing their true intentions. A master of ambush journalism, able to ask tough questions and push for answers with finesse and professionalism.
Character Background:
The Interviewer is a seasoned talk show host with a knack for getting to the heart of the matter. Their show is known for uncovering hidden truths and challenging the powerful. As the series progresses, the character's own secrets and motivations will become more complex, making them an integral part of the overarching narrative.
Audition Requirements:
Prepare a monologue in which the Interviewer starts with a warm and welcoming tone, gradually transitioning into a more assertive and challenging stance. This should showcase the character's ability to switch between friendliness and ambush journalism seamlessly.
Audio Quality Requirements:
Project: Zeta has always set a high bar for our productions from art, to character models, our environments, music, etc. Our standard for quality extends especially to our voice actors. While we do have an audio engineer on staff, their focus needs to remain on AFX and sound design. For someone to be considered for this role, they will need excellent audio quality, and be able to send both a raw source and edited version of their audio.
Role Commitment:
This is a long-term role, and we are looking for a committed actor who can dedicate themselves to the character's development over the course of the series. The Interviewer's role will appear multiple times yearly as the project unfolds.
