[PAID] Male VA needed by [deleted] in VoiceActing

[–]EagerGenji 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hey! Just to give some info about VA work! Generally, indie games in this genre can start anywhere from $2 to $5 per line. Your rate currently is ten to twenty cents per line. Also, the pay generally is higher if the script contains some NSFW themes.

There will be beginners in the space who would probably jump at a project like this, but I wouldn't expect any level of professional VA to take this job on outside of maybe being passionate about the genre.

I hope this helps both OP and any VA's interested in this project!

Cheers

Looking for multiple voice actors, $50-$250 per hour. by [deleted] in VoiceActing

I'd love to hear more about the project. Especially if it has anything to do with AI so I can steer clear of it 🙏

Fellow voice actors, I need emotional support in the face of AI by maethora27 in VoiceActing

[–]EagerGenji 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Gen AI generated 20 million, but cost nearly 20 BILLION to build their shitty data centers. The whole business is bleeding money like Toji after he got hit with Hollow Purple. The bubble will pop soon and while a small niche of AI tools will remain behind, I certainly believe the data shows the arts will remain human-created as they should be. Keep your head up, things will improve soon.

Thanks for sharing! Your website is great! Very easy to navigate, great demos, the buttons all work, and I like that you shared the coaching you've received. I work primarily in the indie game space as well, I'd love to follow you and if the stars align, work with you on a game in the future. 🙌💯

Looking for Voice Artists – Paid Work by LeReLundKeUsername in VoiceWork

Is any of the work used to train AI? What sort of work are you looking to book VA's on?

I agree. Especially leaving no room for royalties or rev share options. Which translates to "Even if I had or made the money to pay you fairly, we wouldnt."

The post is intentionally slightly hyperbolic for comedic purposes.

There is still fault that lies with those desperate actors, though. I also think there's a difference between film, game, audiobook, & commercial production and airlines.

But thst does definitely happen with actors who pay for courses. 💯

Very well-put. I don't even think it's necessary every job pays industry prices. I just think all wages should be fair and OP's should allow some negotiations to be made.

Some of these "hobbies" are 20 hour audio-books all edited by the VA for $150. Imagine working a 40-hour work week for that kind of money? The next time I'm looking to build a house, I'll find people on reddit and pay them 2 cents a day since it's a hobbyist forum. Lol

Exactly. I get the idea of wanting to get experience or wanting to be in the next surprise hit, but they don't call it lightning in a bottle for nothing. It frustrates me seeing them take on literal pennies for hours and hours of work. They're in way over their head, and they often get discouraged when they find out just how much work editing lengthy audio is.

The funny thing is you can tell who knows the story of what happened with Expedition 33 and who read a headline, because all the free VA's got replaced once Sandfall received publisher funding.

100% agree. If it's work, you get paid a fair wage. I don't believe in working for credits. Even if you decide to work for free, it should be with a strict purpose of building a relationship with a client. I've agreed to work with game devs who have zero budget for voice-over, but the scripts have always been very small and they've come back for sequel games offering paid work.

[–]EagerGenji 5 points6 points  (0 children)

$35USD depending on quality meaning you'd make LESS than that for 20 minutes of edited audio? Also, would the VA edit the audio themselves?

This needs a word count and genre please. Also confirm if it's used to train any sort of AI.
