What the work actually involves
You receive scripts — character dialogue, narration, conversational prompts, sometimes emotionally-tagged lines ("frustrated but polite", "whispered, urgent") — and record them in Korean to a stated technical spec. Batches vary: some projects want dozens of short utterances with prosodic variation, others want longer continuous read. Expect direction notes on takes you've already submitted, and expect to re-record rather than argue. Beyond raw performance, many Turing audio projects fold in annotation work: labelling emotion, speaker turns, disfluencies, or rating the naturalness of synthesized Korean speech against your own reference read.
- Record from a treated home studio or in-studio session
- Interpret scripts for tone, register and pacing, including 존댓말/반말 distinctions and regional or age-coded speech
- Revise takes against written feedback and resubmit within the stated turnaround
- Deliver files in the required format, sample rate and naming convention — file hygiene is graded
What the screen is looking for
The shortlist is driven by demonstrable prior voice work, not enthusiasm. A demo reel showing genuine range — not one voice at four volumes — carries more weight than a long CV of unpaid reads. Screeners probe two things hard: whether your recording chain actually produces usable audio (mic, interface, noise floor, treatment, not just "I have a Blue Yeti"), and whether you can take direction without ego. Dubbing, ADR or localization experience is a strong signal because it proves you can hit timing constraints. Familiarity with audio editing tools matters mostly for cleanup and consistent delivery, not for heavy post-production.
Logistics and pay
Fully remote and asynchronous; batches are released with deadlines rather than shifts. This is a flexible freelance agreement, explicitly not employment, and volume fluctuates with client demand — contract extension depends on delivery quality. Turing does not disclose a rate for this listing; audio work on similar platforms is typically priced per recorded minute or per batch, so confirm the unit and the revision policy before accepting your first assignment. After shortlisting, you complete a paid or unpaid delivery review — a short recorded sample judged on audio quality and direction-following — before live work begins.
