Voice Actor Search
About the event
About the registration
Dream Con, in partnership with Martian Blueberry, is excited to launch an open Voice Actor Search, spotlighting emerging and undiscovered voice talent. This search is designed to identify versatile voices, strong performers, and creative storytellers who can bring characters to life across genres.
This is an opportunity to showcase your range, originality, and acting instincts, not your production budget.
Who This is For
We’re looking for:
Aspiring and emerging voice actors
Performers with strong character instincts and vocal flexibility
Creators who can convey emotion, personality, and story through voice
You do NOT need professional demo reels, agents, or studio-quality equipment to apply.
Age Requirements:
Applicants must be 18 years or older to apply.
In Person Requirements
Selected participants must be available to attend Dream Con in person to advance in the Voice Actor Search.
Submission Requirements
Voice Reel Video (Required)
Applicants will submit one short on-camera video showcasing their voice work.
Guidelines:
- Length: Up to 45 seconds total
- Format: One continuous video
- Camera on: We need to see you perform to verify identity
- Audio: Clear, natural audio (phone recording is perfectly fine)
What to Perform
Within your 45 seconds, we encourage you to demonstrate range by including:
- Multiple characters
- Different tones, accents, or vocal textures
- Distinct personalities or emotional shifts
Prompt to guide you:
How many distinct, believable voices can you bring to life in 45 seconds?
There is no required script. You may use original material or brief improvised lines.
Production Notes
We want to be very clear:
- We are not judging production quality
- We are not looking for studio-polished demos
- We are not expecting professional lighting, sets, or editing
This submission is about:
- Voice versatility
- Acting ability
- Creativity
- Authentic performance
Helpful tips:
- Record in a quiet space
- Avoid loud background noise or music
- Neutral or simple backgrounds work best
- Speak clearly and confidently
What We’re Evaluating
Submissions will be reviewed based on:
- Originality: Distinct voices and creative choices
- Acting ability: Emotional clarity, character believability
- Range: Ability to shift tone, style, or personality
- Creativity: How you interpret and approach the challenge
Example Reel
