You want what?!?!?!

Here’s a first. In my audition the other day, the client asked me to voice match a young boy. No problem. They played the Spanish version of the kid and then asked me to match him, in English but with out the Spanish accent.  Okay, I can do that…but wait. They wanted the same sound,  pace and cadence, of Spanish, but with no accent, as a hispanic boy.  All righty then. My first attempt they thought was to close to the Texas border. ….Ya gotta laugh.
