VOICE ACTORS

Gabriel Allani

Gab voiced our player character, Enk (short for Enquiring), our youthful detective fresh out of the academy who is determined to end the village crime wave.

Gab is a second year acting student at the Adelaide College of the Arts.  He created the perfect idealistic character for Enk and read intelligently, dealing with missing directions and commas with aplomb.  He did most lines in one take and recorded 2,134 words in two-and-a-half hours, which is more than 14 words a minute which is fantastic since there were 255 lines.  Moreover, he arrived promptly and was extremely good natured.  Good luck with your acting career, Gab!

Ellen Graham

How lucky we were to have Ellen Graham voice our witch for us.  Ellen has a beautiful, expressive voice and she’s not afraid to use it!

Ellen gracefully expressed the witch’s full range of emotions from frustration to despair to reluctant gratitude to awe.  She did all this in 1,430 words in under an hour while recovering from a cold.  We were shaking our heads and checking our watches.  So… will you burn the witch or save her?

Celeste Martin

Celeste wins the prize for promptness.  She finished work at 12:30 a.m. and was in the city ready for recording at 8:30 a.m. on Father’s Day, no less!  (Father’s Day is celebrated in September in Australia.)

Being a hard-working third year student at the Adelaide College of the Arts, she knocked over 124 lines of 2,152 words in under 2 hours.  This amounted to 24 words a minute, starting as a snooty Lady of the Manor, creating the sssibilant Goblin Chief and the aged Cobbler and then voicing the hidden goblins until she ended as a young goblin girl.

Wait till you hear the goblin girl!  Thank you, Celeste.

Michael McKechnie

The giants
the Old Woman
the Old Miller
the Blacksmith
the Bellringer
Hidden voices
the blacksmith wife
the potter
the carpenter
the dragon keeper
the henkeeper


We should have known when Michael volunteered to do the giants, that he would be tall!  Michael had the most difficult task of creating distinct voices for four main characters and seven hidden characters, with the request that they all have Australian accents.  He had us in stitches as he warbled the old woman’s “dears” and confidently spoke the blacksmith’s “mates”.

Another fast accurate speaker, he recorded 2,290 words in about four hours, over 9 words a minute.

Serena Moorghen

Serena has been going around being trolls at home all week and we were delighted to hear the end results of all her practice.  She voiced 115 lines in an hour and forty minutes, that’s 1,227 words at over 15 words a minute, AFTER a long day’s work.

Serena is a third year acting student at Adelaide College of the Arts and it shows – just listen to her Troll Baby!

Zack Rosser

What do we have here?  A sound actor who looks just like one of our artists?  Yes, you have solved the mystery.  Artist Zack Rosser stepped in and voiced the authoritative Detective Power.  Without him players would not be able to obtain hints for solving mysteries.
