Note: auditions are now closed!
We're looking for voice actors for four roles in our upcoming game Uncle Lee's Cookbook: Five Recipes for Disaster. You can learn more about the game by checking out its steam page.
The game is a comedy point & click adventure. To give you an idea of the feel and the kind of acting we're looking for, think The Curse of Monkey Island—this is just an indication of the kind of delivery style though, we're not looking for a direct imitation of that game!
The deadline for auditions is Tuesday, July 1st at 11pm Pacific Time (see here for the conversion in your own time zone).
The auditions lines (with a copy of the instructions and the characters descriptions) are here.
We're using a flat rate for each character based on the amount of text to record (specified in each character sheet together with information about the amount of text).
The flat rate is for two takes of each line in the script.
Any retakes or extra lines, if necessary, will be paid separately at the same per-take rate.
The recordings will be done remotely and will be self-directed. Please ensure the recording for the audition is done with the same setup that you will use for the final recordings (see instructions below if unable to use your regular setup).
Feel free to audition for as many roles as you think you can voice!
Your auditions and any other recordings you send us will NOT be used for any AI purposes whatsoever.
Auditions close on Tuesday, July 1st at 11pm Pacific Time.
We'll review auditions starting on the following day and cast the roles by Wednesday, July 9th.
The scripts are already finalised so recording can start soon after casting. We're hoping to have the recordings done by the week of July 21st (and at the end of July at the latest).
Payments will be handled directly by our publisher Dionous Games within 30 days of receipt of the final recordings (including re-recordings if necessary).
For each role you audition for, attach your audition recording as a single .mp3 or .ogg file, with filename of the format “Character name - Your name” (for example ‘Young Ines - Jane Doe .mp3'). Please only send email attachments, no links to other services.
Please include a brief overview of your recording setup in your email. Make sure the recording quality matches what you would provide for the final recordings. If you are unable to use your regular equipment but would still like to apply please get in touch with us first (before submitting the audition) to let us know about the situation.
If you audition for multiple roles, ideally you would send a single email with multiple attachments, but you can send multiple emails if necessary.
Your recording should have a single take of each audition line. You are allowed to try different voices for a character if you like, but in that case:
treat them as multiple auditions and send different files for each voice (you can add a number at the end of the file name to differentiate them)
only send up to three different voices for each role you audition for.
