Project: Adriatic Ace
Chloë Elmore for MATTEA
Mattea is the middle-aged daughter of Ace, the old pilot. Over the years she's grown tired of the needless waste of life due to the war, but those in power never listen to those with sense. Her husband, Marco, is an officer for air force, and has ben deployed for over a year, and now her father is leaving leave too. Her speech has become labored over time, there's no tears left. But with children of her own, she never completely gives into despair, because as long as there's a tomorrow, there's hope for a peaceful future.
Direction Notes: Slow, calm, and clear, as if telling a bedtime story to a child. Use your normal voice, this is an easy one to over act, and please vet your audio, it's no good if you're quiet as a mouse, or so loud the audio clips.
(The payment rate for this role is: $175 USD, per 250 words and, 3 retakes at my request, with live direction, if necessary. Full details will be discussed with successful candidates, prior to commitment. Be sure to have your portfolio or links to your supporting work on your CCC profile for me to review.)

Clearly an experienced VA, Good voice, good audio. But, this audition comes off as almost angry, which does make sense given my lacking character bio at the time. Though I'd like to hear this redone with the updated line and context, with a softer disposition. Thank you.
Hi Sam!
Thank you so much for messaging me, since I had obviously seen the first iteration of this audition and definitely put myself in her shoes and thought I would have righteous indignation. But I'm very grateful to have the opportunity to give you a different spin in a softer tone! Coming your way now!
Kind regards,
Chloë Elmore
