Wanna be a voice for our show?  Here's your chance!

One of the first questions people ask us is "How can I be a voice on MLT?!"  Well here's how!  We're always looking for new voices for the various TF's and MLP that make up this show, so if you've got a microphone hooked up to your computer, email, and a good set pipes we'd love to hear it!

With the help of our resident Dude of a Hundred voices, Andy, we've come up with a couple of pointers to keep in mind when sending us a voice sample:
  • Keep it Simple and Clear!  When sending us a voice sample for the first time, we ask that you just introduce yourself clearly in your normal, everyday speaking voice.  Here's an Example of a Good Voice Test.
  • Keep it Short!  We only have so much room in our Email, so please only send us a simple clip of you introducing yourself and try not to add anything else.  Your clip should only be about 5 seconds long.  We just need to hear how you sound and your tone.  Here's an Example of a Voice Test that's too long.
  • Check the Microphone!  A dirty or old microphone can pick up a lot of static and/or screw up an otherwise good recording.  It's also important not to be too close to the microphone when recording, because many mic's pick up breathing and such.  Here's an Example of a Good Voice Test with Bad Equipment.
  • Record in a Quiet Place!  Another thing that can mess up a good recording is too much background noise.  Remember, all we're interested in hearing is you, not your TV.  Here's an Example of a Good Voice Test with Too Much Background Noise.
  • Find a Good Spot to Record!  Some bigger rooms or open places can give the recording an echo or weird quality.  It's always a good idea to try different places and settings to record lines.  Here's an Example of a Good Voice Test Recorded in a Bad Place.
  • Speak Clearly!  Try not to mumble your voice test.  Speak clearly and at a good audible volume.  Remember that people need to be able to understand what you're saying.  Here's an Example of a Mumbled Voice Test.
  • Give Us Your Regular Voice!  We do ask our voice performers to do funny or unique voices often, but when sending us a voice test that you send your regular speaking voice.  We want to hear YOU first.  If you have other voices you like to do, feel free to send a written list in the email.  But please ONLY send a regular voice test first.  Here's an Example of a Voice Test in a Weird Voice.
  • File Types We Accept:  Right now we're only accepting sound files in .WAV and .MP3 only.  If sending us compressed files, we're only accepting .zip and .rar compressions.
  • Ready to go? Email it to Us!  Send your voice test to admin@mylittletransformer.com and type "Voice Test" in the subject field.  Only one voice test per email, please.
  • Legal Mumbo-Jumbo!  All files sent to "My Little Transformer" become our property.  Voice performers are not to expect any sort of payment or compensation for voice work (not like we could afford it anyway).  My Little Transformer will never sell or share any of your contact information.
