I’m putting together a charity fundraising music video featuring voice actors from across the community and I’m looking for people who’d like to get involved.
The plan is to have a load of VAs singing different parts of the same song, with everyone edited together into one video.
You don’t need to be a professional singer. If you enjoy singing and can hold a tune, you’re more than welcome.
How it’ll work:
Send in a short sample of yourself singing. Clean audio please!
If selected you’ll receive a backing track and recording instructions for a delightful little parody song.
Record your vocals and film the performance.
Everything will be mixed and edited into a finished video.
I fully appreciate that some people don’t like the idea of on-screen performances and that’s ok! There are opportunities for simple backing harmonies, so please say if that’s your preference in the audition comments.
Some of you wondrous folks use mocap VTuber rigs, and that’s cool too.
Or if you’d simply like to donate to a good cause, and learn why the heck a ceiling light is the image for this project, you can do so here:

This is an unpaid charity opportunity. Everyone featured will be credited, showcasing your marvellous talent.
I’ll be posting the finished video on YouTube. If you’d like to share your contribution on social media, please stick to short clips/reels linking back to the main video and the donation link above. Please also consider donating to the fundraising page if you generate revenue from clipping it!
I might not be able to include everyone who’s interested unless some crazy-talented editors are out there, but I’m keen to get a good mix of voices involved.
Happy to sign NAVA AI riders of course. I’m not in the business of cloning my friends’ voices.
No I won’t close auditions early, they’ll all be listened to!
Now go get in the booth and have some fun!!
Ta-ta for now,
Ditt x
Please note the project is open to voice actors aged 18 and over as the final video will feature participants’ faces & voices, and it will be published online.

Audio Engineer
I’m looking for an audio engineer and/or video editor to help put together a charity fundraising music video featuring around 10 voice actors.
Everyone will be recording their parts remotely, so I’ll need someone to help stitch the performances together into a finished song and video.
Audio editing and mixing:
Comping and editing individual vocal performances.
Aligning vocals to the backing track.
Cleaning up and balancing recordings from different performers.
Mixing the vocals, potentially including some simple backing harmonies into a finished track.
Video editing:
Syncing each performer’s footage to the finished audio.
Cutting between performers, with some split screens and group sections.
Working in a few funny moments, reactions and other bits of footage.
Basic colour correction where needed so the footage looks reasonably consistent.
I’m happy for these to be two separate people, so please don’t feel you need to cover both audio and video.
The finished song/video will be approximately 3 to 4 minutes long from about 10 performers, potentially more depending on task complexity.

Voice Actor
Voice Actors that can hold a tune!
Selected applicants must have access to a decent recording setup capable of producing clean, quality audio.
Selected applicants must submit final performances as unprocessed WAV files (ideally 24-bit/48 kHz).
Don’t worry, we’ll provide recording instructions, guide tracks and everything you need to keep things in sync and the right key!
No fancy vocal processing please - we want your lovely real human voices! 💙🧡
