Hi! I’m asking out of curiosity, but how is it we see voice actors in prominent games and animation while also being in smaller non union jobs? I know in film you work non union to build up credits and experience but with voiceover it seems that’s not the case, as we see with a game like genshin (and other things) having a lot of big names. Thanks!
Is the world of audio description something that's too saturated already, in terms of number of voice actors? I've been a voice actor for about 4 years and this genre always intrigued me but I also don't know if AI is starting move into this world either.
As an aspiring VA, I'm unsure what I should get. I want to get something from RODE, but I'm not sure what works best for VA work. I don't really mind the price, but I'm thinking of spending around $300 to $400 for the whole studio. I don't want to try to achieve perfect one-to-one sound quality (especially since I want to do this as a hobby); I want clear audio with as little tweaking needed. What would you suggest to achieve this?
Hello talent!
I'm casting the male voice for the final four titles in my steamy contemporary romance novella series, Matched on the Mountain. This is a duet: you’ll voice all the male dialogue, and narrate the hero’s POV chapters. Books 1–3 are already out: https://www.audible.com/author/Cordelia-Kent/B0FN8GT3LS
Project details
Rate: 100-250 PFH for edited, dry, unmastered audio. Please include your rate.
Length: ~4 hours of finished audio from you (~1 hour per title)
Recording type: Duet narration (remote), starting with a live-directed session.
Timeline: Target Nov. 1st
Union status: Non-Union
Genre/content: Contemporary romance; explicit open-door scenes and frank language. 18+ only.
Casting: Ideally casting one male narrator for all 4 books, but will split titles if unable to find one fit for all four stories.
Voice specs – Four heroes (All American, Male, 30ish)
* Conor MacDermott (Book 4): Male, 30s, The charmer: playful and warm, quick with a grin.
* Cillian MacDermott (Book 5): Male, 30s, Conor's older brother. The quiet one: solemn, gentle, and restrained, with a dry wit that sneaks out. The book touches on grief and a past suicide.
* Spencer Pierce (Book 6): Male, 30s, West Coast old money. The black sheep: breezy, irreverent, and polished; patient and consent-forward in the bedroom.
* Benedict "Ben" Pierce (Bonus duet): Male, Spencer's older brother, mid-20s to mid-30s (his voice ages a decade across the duet). The steady one: grounded, protective, and commanding in the bedroom without being a growl-voice.
The two sets of brothers should sound related but distinct.
Technical requirements: Broadcast-quality home studio that requires minimal processing to meet major retailer standards (Audible, Spotify, Apple Books). Subpar recordings will be disqualified.
Deadline: Auditions close October 9th.

Thank you for your interest!

PS: It should go without saying, but unfortunately it doesn't... I am casting human voices, do not upload my work to any AI tools.
