Welcome to the VoiceMe Podcast, information and advice on the world of voiceover, presented by voiceme.co.za – The South African Search Directory for Voice Artists and Related Services. I’m Andrew Sutherland, founder of voiceme.co.za, and in this episode, I wanted to go into the topic of authentic casting in the world of voiceover. We’ll be looking at some fantastic guidelines from the National Association of Voice Actors (NAVA) in the USA, but we’re going to connect these principles to something a lot closer to home—the South African voiceover scene. Whether you’re a voice actor, a casting director, or just curious about why representation matters, this episode’s for you.

Topics in this episode:

  • The Value of Authentic Casting
  • Understanding Language & Identity
  • Writing Transparent Casting Calls
