Even Monty auditioned for the role of Ozpin and ended up deciding Shannon did better in the audition. Even Matt Hullum, CEO of the company, had to audition to make an attempt at the role of Ozpin and to get the role of a character who will appear later.

I don't know that I agree with that statement, I mean I don't call syncing a character to a VA an "audition" if the understanding always was; "if it doesn't fit we'll make one for you later", which seemed to be the understanding with most RT employee's present V1.
