Looking for a voice actor for Lilly! It would be a long term project, you will not get paid for leaving auditions, only the actual comic dubbing and eventual animatic. I’m thinking soft girly voice. She is a Latina woman! Spanish is HIGHLY preferred, even though the story is in English. It’s for our fan project dragon…

I'm an amateur voice actor, and I just got my first real job as a news anchor on our local FM radio station! I saw an ad that they were looking for news anchors and didn't really think I had a chance, but sent in some recordings of myself reading the local news. I got called in to meet the station manager and was offer…

I’m in my late 20s and have done background work and student films before. I never received the footage from the student films, though, so I currently don’t have a reel or professional headshots.

I’m a voice actress quoting for a non‑exclusive annual licence on a voice‑assistant project. One company I work with quotes $12k/year for similar usage, but I want to be reasonable and fair. Does quoting around $18k/year sound right for this kind of licence? Thank you!

What's the best way to get my casting call in front of actors in LA if you're not going through agents? I know there's a lot of casting sites, and I've done a bunch, but I would prefer not to make actors pay to submit. Is there a well-connected person or group or school or teacher I could send my casting call to? I kno…

Hi! I've been wanting to get into voice acting and impersonations because I always thought it was really cool as a kid, but I was always too embarrassed to actually practice. Now that I'm a bit older, I decided to finally give it a try, only to realize I have no idea what I'm doing and I suck ? My voice sounds pretty m…

I run a festival network, and before that I was an actor working in London, professionally trained at The Oxford School of Drama.

I was asked if instead of using CGI for some post production for a movie I was in, if I was okay with them using AI for some scenes I was in. I called SAG and I know producers have to submit paperwork and there are fees. But I’m wondering if anyone has experience with this. In principle the whole thing feels weird. It’…

**Payment info:** **The starting budget is $75 for roughly 430-500 words of dialogue, with professional or experienced voice actors preferred.

Have you ever stepped back and thought about the language we use to talk about acting? Or wondered what a non-actor would think about what is said in acting class? Acting classes are full of metaphors, abstractions, aphorisms, and occasionally statements that sound almost mystical—especially out of context. Some are be…

The moments I’ve had in the booth where I’ve laughed my head off because of the absurdity of the things I’ve said, and been incredibly proud of work I’ve done. BUT.
