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).

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.

Qualifications

  • 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.
