Okay, I really suck as Pardo, but I can't resist posting this one. One of the very, very, very few I ever submitted produced... just because.

Scott - You nailed it. Maybe they'll pass the hat and pay you what you're really worth. Outstanding.

When I got that Ross lead I thought about it for a few moments and actually said to myself that "whatever Scott Pollak does is going to be way better for this than what I would do" and I didn't bother submitting.

I was right.

Scott:

That was very good on Ross. I decided to pass much for the same reason as Lee. I can tell you why you got a '3'. They're expecting Morgan Freeman to show up for $260.

Morgan?..............

I concur...as soon as I saw the lead I know who could make it shine...I passed, too. Scott you just have that stuff down, man.

Here is my latest audition for Wrangler. It's more animated than the other one and, they changed the script!

LOL, Colin... maybe I should start submitting MORE produced auditions? If it gets me high ratings. That doesn't guarantee a job though.

I love yours. I remember that lead. That's from a while back isn't it?
Nicely done and something that your voice is made for!

Hello! I've been away for a while -- at least one person has been sick in our home since the Eisenhower Administration -- I'm finally able to do some audition work (outside of my regular clients)... hey, guess what! When you don't audition, your stats DO go way up! (For whatever THAT'S worth!)

Missed everyone - great hearing your voices again!

Deby - loved both your Ranch Girl takes. Living in Dallas, I hear this woman ALL the time - and you nailed it. Very real, not a parody. (Agree with Lee, nice script.) VERY nicely done - hope you get it!

All the Pardo's were a scream. I can remember being a kid; sick at home, while Mom ironed and watched Jeopardy with Don and Art Fleming - yes, Bosco gets the nod for best soundalike; but for the Pardo using the actual script... hm... Travis was wonderful. Gosh, John Thomas, as well. Hard choices.

And thanks, Scott, for posting your Pardo. Very brave. Smile

But, everyone's correct... no one can do what you do in your wheelbox -- as evidenced in your VERY fine Ross Farewell.

Here's the only audition I've submitted in a long time! From TOS... they make spindles!

Kent, man, welcome back!

That script doesn't do that gorgeous voice justice, so I felt a little disconnect with the voice and the read, if that makes sense.
I hope you'll be around more -- love hearing you!
