Male VA - Role in an Romantic Audio Roleplay/Story Series (SFW++) (n°5)
AvelynCrossBro for TRAY
Male character in his mid-twenties, funny, charming.
The story is set in the US.
The first scene occurs when Tray is a teenager. Therefore, a youthful voice of around 15/16 years old is needed. He meets a girl for the first time in a park while he is playing on a console, and she approaches him to talk.
In the second scene, after years of searching, you lose her in a crowd. Disheartened, you decide to go home and leave a voice note for your friend who is still waiting for you at the concert.
In the third scene, after discussing the fact that neither of you has kissed anyone in a long time, you decide to test each other's kissing skills. You have dreamed of this moment for years. Be flirtatious, charming, and use a lower tone.
TRAY : Um, sorry... what? -- Listener : I asked what you're playing. -- TRAY : It's just a video game. Do you always talk to people you don't know? -- Listener : Not always. So, which one is it? -- TRAY : Well, I don't think you should talk to strangers. (She takes the Nintendo ) TRAY : Hey! Give me back my console. -- Listener : Come and get it if you want it. -- TRAY : Seriously, give it back, it's not funny anymore. -- Listener : Okay, but you're teaching me how to play. -- TRAY : Fine, I'll teach you, but first you have to give it back. Come on. -- Listener : Okay, here. -- TRAY : Don't ever do that again!
Hey Simon, sorry... um... but I'm heading home. (taking a deep breath) I've lost her again dude, I just don't get it. I think I'm going to lose it. (exhaling) She was at the concert, can you believe it? She was there and we were supposed to join you but it was so crowded and we got separated in the crowd and now I don't know if it's worth waiting outside. I don't know, maybe I'll see her come out after the concert. But there are so many exits, it would take a miracle for her to come out of this one. It's over, man. I think this time I'll never see her again. (sighing) We were this close from kissing, dude. Seriously, why didn't I? I'm such an idiot. And I could see in her eyes that she was dying for it as much as I was. That's the only thing I can hold on to tonight, knowing that maybe she feels the same way I do. Ah, and of course, I didn't think to ask for her number again, I was too caught up in the moment, her scent, her laugh, the way she looked at me, her lips... shit, her lips... fuck! (as if hitting your forehead on the steering wheel) Aarh! Honestly, man, tell me if I'm being pathetic because I’ve only met this girl three times in my life, but I’m a wreck every time I see her, I don't get it. It's like I can't control my emotions and I want to spend all my time with her. Anyway, here's to you guys. Catch you tomorrow I guess. Bye.
TRAY : Okay, so let me get this straight. I help you figure out if you've lost your touch, and you help me in return? -- LISTENER : I think that sums it up. -- TRAY: So we’re just two altruistic people helping each other out, right? -- Listener : That's right. -- TRAY : And we’re talking about a real kiss, aren't we? Not just a peck? -- Listener : The full experience. -- TRAY : Good. If we’re evaluating, might as well do it properly. (kissing sounds for a few seconds)
Hello, thank you so much for your audition, and I’m glad you enjoyed the script. I think you delivered a great performance with the right tone. In the second scene, Tray is a bit more desperate about the situation, but you still managed to show a real range of emotions in that scene. I’ll get back to you soon regarding the final decision. In the meantime, could you please provide me with some details about the microphone you used, your interface, and how the sound is treated in your studio? Thanks you and have a great day!
Thank you, and of course. I use a Rode NT1-A microphone, and my interface is a Scarlet 2i2, I treated my sound in Audacity with a bit of noise reduction. My background audio isn't too bad, but it helps to treat it. Thank you for messaging me!
Ah, I see. However, the audio wasn’t supposed to be processed. I actually need to hear the background sound. Could you please upload the raw version? If you are selected for the role, the processing will be handled directly in post-production. Thank you.
