Voice Actor - UK English (Wales)

Speech recording project

Record authentic Welsh English conversation to support AI speech research. The project captures natural rhythm, tone, and delivery so that AI can better understand human speech. It does not involve cloning your voice.

Session work

• Record conversational speech in a professional recording studio.
• Take part in recordings with one speaker as well as dialogue between two speakers.
• Deliver realistic conversation that sounds natural and spontaneous.
• Respond to light direction by adjusting tone, pace, and delivery across different takes.

Your authentic accent and professional recording skills are central to this work. The focus is on credible everyday conversation rather than a strongly performed reading.

Required background

Applicants must be professional voice actors or voice over artists with relevant recording experience. Native or near native Welsh English speech is required, and you must currently live in Wales.

You should be comfortable performing conversation and dialogue in a studio, reliable about session commitments, and receptive to direction. Working English is needed for communication during recording.

Additional strengths

Acting, theatre, or other performance experience is helpful. Broadcast, podcast, or studio work and confidence with both scripted and improvised dialogue are useful additions.

Contract and commitment

This is a paid contract involving two to three sessions, each lasting four hours. Recording takes place in person, with a focused commitment over a small number of sessions. Further recording sessions may become available as additional projects begin.
