Job Description



We’re hiring voice talents to record 60 minutes of scripted audio demonstrating a range of emotions (e.g., excitement, contempt, confusion) and speaking styles (e.g., narrative, whispered, reading to children). Recordings will be used to train text-to-speech (TTS) models. There is no public broadcast or advertising usage, and nothing will be created in your likeness. Important: You must submit an audition that follows the technical requirements listed below to be considered for this project. Project Overview & Usage Scope: 1 hour of finished speech (solo; no dialogues). Fully scripted; scripts provided. Usage: Internal model training/evaluation only. No public-facing usage and no voice cloning. Script quality: Scripts are machine-translated; please read as written to the best of your ability without letting translation quality compromise a natural, believable delivery. Artistic Direction - Aim for genuine, natural performances that do not feel performed or stiff. - Maintain clear, confident delivery and correct pronunciation. Technical / Audio Requirements - Format: WAV, stereo, 16-bit - Sample rate: 48 kHz - Quality: Very clean audio (noise floor ≤ −60 dB), no reverb, no clipping, minimal plosives. - Processing: Do not apply denoisers, EQ, compression, normalization, or any plugins—raw audio only. Revisions: Include up to 2 rounds of revisions due to talent error per script. To Apply: Submit your audition with your proposal using the attached script in the language you are applying for.
