Advice Finding voice actors

1 Upvotes

Hello! I’m an independent filmmaker, and I’m looking for voice actors to dub my short film.
The film is in English, but the actors have noticeable accents, so I’d like to re-record the dialogue with native English-speaking voice actors.
The problem is that I don’t have a big budget, and I’m based in another country. I’ve contacted a few dubbing agencies, but their prices are unfortunately too high for an independent filmmaker :(
Does anyone know where I could find voice actors who might be interested in working on a low-budget short film? Any websites, communities, Discord servers, or other places where I could look would be greatly appreciated!
If you have any advice or could point me in the right direction, I’d really appreciate it.
Thank you in advance!

Advice Voice acting schools and Online classes!

I’m really trying my hardest in finding out the best way of actually learning how to be a voice actor. Now and then I see the occasional voice actor’s ad about their courses, seeing great reviews on their websites but I can’t help but be worried about not getting what I actually pay for and spend my time on!

I’m just asking if anybody can recommend a school or online course that is actually trustworthy and worth the payment?

(I also live in Colorado so if anybody has recommendations specifically here for schools and such, it would be much appreciated!)

Discussion Just Got Hit Up to "Train" TTS App - Laughed in Their Face

57 Upvotes

I'm a writer. Native English. Most days, I field job after job from AI companies wanting me to train their LLMs on how to write. I turn them all down. I'll get paid $18/hour to permanently put myself out of work. Even if they paid me way more, I'd turn them all down.

Then today I get hit up to record my voice for TTS. And the truth is, I have a theatre background and have done voice work on and off.

And the truth is I'm stone-cold broke.

Like going to a food pantry broke.

And no, you could pay me $1M and I will not train your TTS model.

I will not take work away from you guys.

I will not make them rich.

No money in the world is worth that.

I hope all artists can band together to resist.

Advice Making content for social media

Posting on behalf of a VA friend who hasn’t got reddit and is pretty useless with social media

For clarification, he’s been a voice actor professionally for many years, and did well without any sort of socials until this point. He’s encountered some auditions recently that has required him to have socials so he’s trying to embrace it
Issue is what do you post? Just reel work? Samples of things you’ve already done?

He’s been wanting to do little videos of him reading out some Warhammer / world of Warcraft readings but we’ve realised there might be some copyright situation there. Is it just the case that we have to stay clear of those things or is there a way they can be transformative enough? How do you find things to do readings of that won’t get you in trouble with copy right, or having to just make everything from scratch yourself

Thanks in advance!

Hey! I work as the country lead for a Canadian startup that's expanding into Germany, and I need your help 🙌

We're looking for people who are fluent in German to join an audio recording casting in Berlin — no experience needed. It's super simple: you just chat naturally in German with a small group of 3–4 people for about 10 minutes.

You get 25€ just for taking part in the casting. If you get selected, you'll also get invited to weekly recording sessions afterward, paid 45€/hour (each session is about 4–8 hours).

Let me know if you're interested — would really appreciate your help, and feel free to bring a friend too!

Booth Related Sound Treatment Wall Panels

4 Upvotes

Hi all, before I start recording my next project, I need to upgrade some of the sound treatment in my room. I rent and my building is older with thin walls and thin windows. Despite my best efforts, noise is still occasionally leaking into my recording and I have to re-record and it extends my time in post. It also limits my recording time in the booth bc I have to find pockets of time when traffic noise isn't too bad and my neighbor is being quiet.

I've heard foam actually may not be as helpful and that I should look into acoustic paneling instead for my wall. Does anyone have recs that worked for them without breaking the bank? Same for the window, I wish I could afford Indow inserts, but they're way out of budget right now. Has anyone had luck with any sound dampening curtains before and have recs for them? Thanks!

Booth Related Roughly on a 100$ budget, should I treat my closet or get a microphone?

0 Upvotes

According to this video (https://youtu.be/7IqBZHa0cFA?si=ZE50QlvYR1WRWI6I) and a reddit comment i saw earlier, treatment matters more than microphone. Which i can totally understand, if you're in a bathroom or something no amount of processing or mic quality will stop you from sounding like you're in a bathroom.

Currently i dont have a microphone other than my iphone XR, my booth is a closet with no panels but a lot of clothes. Now it's NOT a walk-in closet, instead it's very small. I would need to sit to fit in it. Which i would think is important maybe???

So this ultimately leaves me with two options: iphone XR mic and a bunch of sound panels (+ clothes already in the closet), or a USB mic in a closet (with clothes for sound treatment). Which should i roll with?

I'm unsure which specific mic or which acoustic panels i should get, but i've so far done a few hours of research and the Fifine k688 is so far my best option. Now i'm trying to look for a condenser mic similar to the Fifine k688 (IF you all decide it's more reasonable to get a mic instead)

Also i will be using an adapter + my XR for whatever mic i end up getting because my laptop has a lifespan of 3 seconds off charge and if i run a cable through the entrance of my closet, it'll not only be extremely cluttered but also leave the closet a bit less treated.

Any and all help is well appreciated!

Hello!! I'm a very beginner voice actor, I've been training a female voice I can do for a for a few hours a day before it gets tiresome, and out of curiosity I tried doing a toad voice, little did I know after 5 minutes my throat started feeling like when you just want to "cough it out" if that makes sense.

I drank some water and am actively drinking a ginger tea as I write this, would anyone have any tips on how to manage/rest your voice ?

Getting Started Is Voice Acting changing your voice or adding expressions ?

2 Upvotes

I was really curious about this craft therefore i started voicing Po from Kung Fu Panda. But I don't know if voice acting means changing your voice completely or adding more expressions to the voice. I tried getting that high pitch like Jack Black but just couldn't.

Any advice is appreciated. Thank You

Thumbnail ellipsus.com
46 Upvotes

'Soul Operator' is a solo ttrpg actual play and audio drama, created with the intention of highlighting amazing solo ttrpgs that exist in the space by presenting their gameplay as a fleshed out story.

'Soul Operator' is part of the 'Rusty Quill Network', along with other shows such as 'The Magnus Archives', '[Redacted]', 'Woe.Begone', 'Hollow Disciple', and 'Planet Arcana'.

This is an independently produced podcast that is currently being made at a loss. As this is the case, all actors will be paid $10/100 words, with a minimum of $20 total. All actors will be paid prior to episodes being released.

Season Two of the podcast is based on ‘Outliers’ by Samantha Leigh and features a lot of the themes from the game, including memory loss, mind control, rituals, and teeth, as well as horror typical themes. There will also be discussions of mental health/illness. While there will be graphic content, there will be no intentional mention or implication of sexual assault, racism, or homo/transphobia!

This is a Non-Union project.

This project does not utilize or endorse the use of generative AI at any level. The NAVA AI Rider will be provided upon casting for peace of mind.

Recording Period: For part one, we are shooting for Fall - Winter, pending script completion and cast availability. Cast members may record shared scenes together or independently per their discretion. Live direction may be available on a case by case basis. A fully outlined schedule with expectations will be provided once the casting process is complete.

Length: 12 episodes, split into two 6 episode halves with a midseason break.

The first 6 episodes will be fully produced prior to release and will air on a biweekly basis, during which time production on the second half of the season will continue.

Audition Deadline: 11:59pm PST, October 1st, 2026 (Auditions may be reopened based on necessity.)

Additional information, such as character sides and where to submit your audition can be found on the linked casting document.

PAID work [Paid Work] Casting Multiple 18+ Female Voice Actors for an Adult Indie Game

16 Upvotes

Hi! I’m currently casting several female voice actors for a small, self-funded hobby game containing adult/NSFW material.

This is not a studio production, so I want to be upfront about the scale and budget. At the same time, I want everyone involved to be compensated fairly for their time.

Most of the dialogue is normal/non-explicit character dialogue. Some scenes contain adult material, which may include profanity, suggestive or explicit dialogue, dirty talk, moans, breathing, and other vocal reactions.

Individual boundaries will always be discussed before recording begins, and nobody will be asked to perform material outside of what we have agreed upon.

Compensation

Standard rate: $10 USD per finished minute of accepted audio

Larger, more prominent, or especially demanding roles may pay up to $15 USD per finished minute, depending on the character and scope of the role.

There is a $25 minimum payment per booked actor, even if the final amount of dialogue would otherwise come out below $25.

The $25 booking minimum applies to the actual role and is separate from any paid casting read.

If I ask you to record custom material so I can determine whether your voice fits a character, that recording will be compensated separately.

Finished audio is prorated based on accepted runtime.

For example:

  • 1 finished minute at $10/min = $10 → $25 minimum applies
  • 2 finished minutes = $20 → $25 minimum applies
  • 3 finished minutes = $30
  • 5 finished minutes for a major role at $15/min = $75

“Finished minute” means the combined runtime of the accepted performance, including spoken dialogue and accepted nonverbal vocalizations/reactions. It does not mean the total length of the scene in the game.

A lot of my material contains fewer spoken words while still requiring substantial performance, so I prefer this structure over strict per-word pricing. Based on previous scripts, the effective rate has generally worked out to roughly $0.15–$0.19 per spoken word, depending on the amount of dialogue versus vocal performance.

What I’m Looking For

I’m casting multiple characters, so I’m open to different voices, accents, ranges, and acting styles.

If interested, please send me:

  • A demo reel or voice sample if you have one
  • Your general boundaries regarding NSFW voice acting

You do not need to post your NSFW boundaries publicly. Those can be discussed privately.

Voice Rights

I consider your voice and performance to be your work.

I will not use your recordings to:

  • Train models
  • Clone or replicate your voice
  • Generate new dialogue using your voice
  • Create synthetic performances
  • Make you appear to say lines you never recorded

Your recordings will only be used for the agreed-upon game project under the terms discussed with you.

If your voice seems like a possible fit, I’ll provide more information about the characters, expected amount of dialogue, content involved, and recording requirements before you commit to anything.
