Project Overview

Hey! We're creating a narrative-driven YouTube explainer series in the style of channels like LEMMiNO. We're seeking a voice actor with a distinctive, captivating narration style to bring the scripts to life and create an immersive viewing experience.

Voice & Tone Requirements

We're specifically looking for:

  • Soft-spoken delivery with a calm, measured pace

  • Mysterious and intriguing tone that draws listeners in

  • Clear articulation while maintaining a somewhat understated presence

  • Ability to convey wonder and curiosity about complex topics

  • Natural-sounding delivery that avoids overly dramatic or commercial styles

    In terms of accent or vibe, we're really not looking for anything specific so any sort of style of voice is great to listen to, so long as it meets those tone requirements.

About the Project
  • Initial videos will be 15-20 minutes in length

  • Starting with individual projects, aiming to scale to monthly releases

  • Full scripts will be provided

  • Long-term collaboration opportunity with potential for increased production

Your Role
  • Read through and understand each of the scripts

  • Interpret them with appropriate pacing, emotion, and emphasis

  • Work with the rest of the team to really get a feel for the topics

  • Potentially collaborate on script refinements to better suit your voice

Audition Sample Text

"Downtown Tokyo, March 20th, 1995. Two men are driving to the subway station. Rush hour is about to start. They make a pit stop at a convenience store. The driver buys two newspapers.

The passenger gloves, a knife, tape, and sandals. The passenger is dropped off in front of the station. His train is arriving shortly. He boards the front carriage. And after three stops, he takes a package out of his bag and drops it onto the floor. It's wrapped in newspapers from the convenience store.

He takes the sharpened tip of his umbrella and drives it into the package. A few more holes for good measure. The driver is waiting for him outside. He makes sure that any liquid left by the package is gone. The liquid the man just released on the Tokyo subway is over 900 milliliters of sarin, one of the deadliest nerve agents on the planet."
