The Purgatorians 'Prequel before the sequel' miniseries
Ethanr1222 for Ronald Anderson
Ronald is a very kind and caring father and husband. He also works very closely with the Overseer, who he considers his best friend. His life is about to fall apart in the worst way possible…
No over dramatic panto acting please. I'm looking for realism.
Accent allowed – British – Preferably with as little dialect as possible but not posh.
Age range – 32-40
Ronald needs to portray the most emotional range. He has compassionate scenes, upsetting scenes, fear, anger, love, friendliness. He will go through hell and the voice actor needs to be able to portray this through their voice.
Line 1 - Ronald has just discovered a gruesome scene and has gone to report it to the overseer. This needs some shock, some disbelief, some fear in his voice. Imagine you have just walked in to find someone stabbed to death.
Line 2 - You are breaking the worst news to two people. Their lives will be ended. He doesn't like doing this at all so discomfort in the voice please. Imagine you are breaking the worst news possible to a friend.
Line 3 - The cycle is ending, everyone's dying and your daughter is exactly where the explosives are to destroy the tunnels. This needs panic and terror as Ronald's daughters life is in very serious danger. Imagine your child, or someone else you deeply care about is in a very dangerous and deadly situation. How would you react to this?

There's blood on the walls and in the bathroom... He was slumped down near the... He had been stabbed. Multiple times. He was laying in a pool of blood. It most definitely wasn't an accident. We have a murderer roaming the city.
I have some bad news for you Mr Barker. The council changed their minds on your ruling. You are... (Sorrowful) You are to be executed this evening alongside Mr McDonald.
(Terrified) I'm here honey, I'm reach out your arm and... (Very, very terrified) Oh my God. The explosives. QUICK... (Extremely upset and terrified) SOPHIAAAAA.
Line 1 - He sounds excited for finding a dead body. This is not the case. I am looking for realism so you would need to think how you would react if you had just discovered a murder victim. It also sounded a little animated. The show is gritty and dark and the acting needs to reflect this,
Line 2 - Better than line 1 as it did include some discomfort in the voice. It had the correct emotion, it just needs adding a bit more. He really does not agree with this decision and this is not news he wants to give in the slightest.
Line 3 - Once again, sounded a little animated. Think more of movies, rather than anime for the the tones I am looking for. I do not want animated voices in the show as it won't fit the tone of it. This is one of the darkest audio dramas out there.
Appreciate the feedback. I can try again if that's cool.
