Your performances will be used to train AI systems to better understand and express human emotion. This is interpretive, character-driven work that requires genuine craft, and we have structured this engagement to reflect that.

You will receive a script and scene brief, study the emotional context, and deliver a performance that is true to the character and moment. The scenes are specific and emotionally rich. You might perform as:

• A bride, bidding farewell to her family on her wedding day, overwhelmed with emotion (Una sposa, che saluta la sua famiglia il giorno del matrimonio, sopraffatta dalle emozioni).
• A father, holding his newborn child for the first time, overcome with emotion (Un padre, che tiene in braccio il suo neonato per la prima volta, sopraffatto dalle emozioni).
• A shepherd, spotting a wolf in the distance, becoming alert to protect his herd (Un pastore, che avvistando un lupo in lontananza, si mette all'erta per proteggere il suo gregge).
• A doctor, with a heavy heart, delivering the news of a patient's passing to their family (Un medico, che con il cuore pesante, comunica alla famiglia la notizia della morte di un paziente).
• A runner, after years of training, nearing the finish line and filled with emotion (Un corridore, che dopo anni di allenamento, si avvicina al traguardo pieno di emozione).

• Professional background in voice acting, dubbing, narration, audiobook recording, or similar.
• Able to deliver expressive and engaging vocal performances across a variety of styles and emotions.
• Comfortable interpreting a scene brief and working independently with minimal direction.

• Clear and consistent voice quality.
• External microphone: USB preferred (or XLR; but no built-in, wireless/HF, or Bluetooth microphones).
