Male VA + 1 supporting role - Role in an Romantic Audio Roleplay/Story Series (SFW++) (n°6)
Buttery for Prince Louis
Male character, late twenties to early thirties, with a naturally deep, resonant voice that reflects a personality both solemn, charming, and gentle.
The story is set in a fictional France, as a retelling of Beauty and the Beast.
In the first scene, Prince Louis, now in beast form, speaks to the princess, who has just discovered his nighttime transformation. His voice should take on a more beast-like, guttural quality, with a subtle growl. He addresses her with a tone that is both gentle and reproachful, as he had asked her not to wander into his quarters at night.
In the second scene, the prince and princess argue after he dismisses one of her ladies-in-waiting . This argument serves as an outlet for deeper, underlying emotions, as the prince, a true skeptic of love, has held back his affection but can no longer hide his attraction.
The third scene is a significant spoiler, but it’s key for understanding the emotional depth of the role: the prince, in beast form, mourns over the nearly lifeless body of the princess. Isadora, the witch who cast the curse on him, appears, and he begs her to save the princess.

Hello, thank you very much for your audition. I’m curious if you have a background in theater, as the pacing of your performance feels more suited to a stage performance. It’s interesting, but unfortunately, I am looking for a slightly different acting style for this role. Nonetheless, thank you for your interest. Have a great day!
Hey there. Thanks for the feedback. I have done theatre, but my experience is more in film and television (Power Rangers SPD), I'm sorta new to the voice acting arena. I'm happy to submit another audition with a more grounded take on it if you're interested.
Yes, if you'd like, you can definitely try again. Here's a tip: avoid overacting the role. In an audio drama, authenticity is key—the more it sounds like a natural conversation, the better. The goal is to convey raw, human emotions. Also, if it helps, drop the 'beastly' voice for now; focusing on that might prevent you from acting naturally, as it requires a double effort. Try this approach and see how it works out! I’d be happy to hear it. Talk to you soon!
