RULES OF ENGAGEMENT for Rising Voice Talent and Nonprofit Organizations:
All profile content must be appropriate: Recent head shot photo and/or Nonprofits organizations photo, accurate and recent voice samples recorded in the environment used to complete projects, honesty and integrity with regards to timelines and completion of projects- most projects should not take more than 4 days- if an audio sample does not meet the standards of voice recording best practices of Volunteer Voice Over or the quality is very poor, the voice talent may have a profile hidden until proper quality is established.
A recorded voice through this
platform may NEVER be used for any other purpose or to train a synthetic voice or a digital double for the purposes of cloning or duplicating the likeness of the volunteer’s voice, without express, written permission.
Organizations are NOT permitted to ask for an audition. Organizations may collaborate with several talents at a time and choose a project recording that best fits the project brief. Feedback to the Rising Voice Talent should be given so adjustments and learning can take place.
Organizations can only ask for project
participation from the same voice talent up to 3 times. This is a self-monitor rule.
All project communications are required to be processed through the
platform during the projects. This way we can help if an issue arises.
However, if you love your voice talent, you can connect outside the platform after your project is completed.
After successfully finishing a project, both parties should formally
review each other and post a narrative and star review.
No TIPS are allowed or expected. Expecting tips is not volunteering
for the right and altruistic reasons.
After a project is complete and the nonprofit wishes to retain the talent, a successful pairing can be created and both parties can work outside of the platform.
Nonprofits are NOT allowed to ask for free work outside this platform.
Please be kind, professional, and thankful to the Rising Voice Talent volunteers.
It takes years of experience to gain the knowledge and insights to be
a professional voice talent and this is a learning platform where gentle but honest feedback is needed.
All members will have access to our Branding Guidelines… just in case.
Violating the Terms and Conditions and/or the
Rules of Engagement may result in termination of membership and user rights.
