The Audition

One continuous recording, aiming for roughly 60–90 seconds. Disfluencies — natural hesitations, “ums,” and other filler words — are totally fine and expected in a recording of this length. This recording serves as your application. Please ensure you’re happy with the recording before submitting. Please upload as a .wav file.

We’d love to hear the person behind the voice! In one continuous recording (60–90 seconds), tell us a bit about yourself: where did you grow up (30-45 seconds), and what is a random hobby or passion of yours (30-45 seconds)?

Start out speaking naturally, like we’re getting to know each other over a cup of coffee. But once you start talking about your passion, lean into it with maximum energy—speak as if you are trying to convince your best friend that this is the coolest thing on the planet. Your voice should sound conversational and unscripted throughout.

Upload one recording per language you speak — one file each. WAV preferred at 44.1 or 48 KHz. Max 100 MB each.
