Sintel · A dragon

Practice this voice acting scene

The shaman imagines someone close to Sintel: a loved one or a kindred spirit. Sintel answers with just two words. The unexpected subject makes a small change in tone easy to hear.

A short answer with a clear intention

Record “A dragon” as a plain statement first, then try it with wonder or tired resolve. Keep the timing compact. If you choose the shaman, give each question room without turning a gentle inquiry into a speech.

Listen to the original before recording. Your selected character uses your takes; the other role keeps its original performance. Select both roles to perform the complete exchange or take turns on the same device.
